Back to the skyline.... seems alot of people in the insurance industry smoke crack while working. Took me 6 phonecalls and about 3 hours to find out its not written off, and that it will be fixed. on the downside, it will take apprx 3 weeks to get approved, then another 2 weeks for parts to arrive, then another week or so for fixing. DAMN U PAPERWORK!!!! Got offered a nice skyline for cheap from some friends but won't be getting a pay out so oh well.

GEEZUS!!!!! the amount of &*^$ that i have had to go through. i ring the insurance compnay every 2 days to see whats going on. Seems that Alianz is a cheap $#%^$^ insurance company that has to claim through another insruance compnay. Seems that the big insurance compnay sent the check for the repairs on the 20/10/06. which was a bloody long time ago, 1 week after the crash to be exact. And ofcourse knowing my luck it got lost, and they only just found that out! So i am going to pay for the repairs and get reinbursed because this is going to take another 4 weeks to resolve and the car is just sitting there.

Infact the repairers rang up today and said what are we doing with the car besides driving in and out of their garage day and night, they said they have had to fill it up aswell lol. So yea its getting repaired now.

Please anyone out there that is insured under alianz........GO TO A REAL INSURANCE COMPANY, theyw ill only cause u pain as they still are learning about the business unlike big players like aami,nrma, just car insurace etc.

peace out

Yay, got my car back today from Revell fyshwick. Seems they did a good job.

UPDATE: got it back from barett Brothers, seems they missed the broken shock. Driving around thinking something wrong, the rear end feels like its floating etc. So yea took it and and yay a broken shock.

Revell said that its no use replacing just one as they will have different damper rates etc and will not feel right. So i had to replace both. Rang insurance and they are like "oh we only pay for the one that was damaged, you have to pay for the other one". After alot of sswearing i think they will be paying for both.

Records are now that it has been off the road for 3 months. All cos of some retard.

My advice? Don't get in an accident!

      Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.

      Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys

      Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels

      Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)
