If u're really stuck, go Prosperion, guarantee the most u'll pay is about 1500/1600 full comp. Unlimited mods, as long as it's street legal.

BUT (yes, there's always a but) It's a lot more complicated than normal insurance and it's not just an insurance company either, u pay all car costs thru them.

sorta the same thing happened to me, Oct/Nov '02 was gonna get a R33 GTS-T but parents pulled out at the VERY last moment, i was at the place putting down a deposit on a compliance plate. I was paying for most of the car, parents were putting in $5k but they wouldn't let me cos it was Turbo. Didn't like the idea of importing either, stupid parents!! They suck!

anyways, good luck.

EDIT: roflmao at Troy!! hahahahah :bahaha:

im on 3rd party under my name from age of 18 (im 19 now) for $600 with no accidents (touch wood). how much experiance of driving have u had? maybe if u had a lot since even before ur l's (like me, from age of 12 :)) u can con ur dad into letting u get it.

i also have my colt under my name i think on full compo i dunno have to check statement for $450 or $650 hahaha

but yeah u want full comp which is a good idea because i get scared on 3rd party no matter whats going on around me hehe

today after work i arrive home a happy chap all excited about my r33 which i'll b pikn up in the next 3 weeks when my dad say's guess wot? I say "umm i broke the gate" he says no worse.... you cant get the r33 because full comp insurance was 5k CHEAPEST!  

He just refuses to get a car without full comp which i think is bullsh*t!

He said we can look at a nice VS calais for the same price (16k) but it compares like chalk and cheese.

So now i feel like crawling in a hole and dying.........

ahhh dude, my heart goes out to ya

costs the same for me, bout 5-6k a year, cant afford it, im jsut a poor uni student! eheh

maybe u should get a n/a or a dif car for a lil

hey,

well i looked into getting a skyline but i ended up getting a silvia instead, a 1.8 litre turbo. Was ok, but got bored with it. i was going to sell it, but then i thought of the rb25det engine conversion.

Just cars say any mods are allowed. So putting the rb25det into the silvia is just a mod. I would pay the same for a 1.8 litre turbo, as for the rb25det. Makes me wish i bought the 1.8 litre non turbo silvia.

i think full comp is still like $2000+ plus, and third party fire and theft was $800. thats rating 6 though, so.....

Rabz3174: who does third party for your line...everyone I called wouldn't do third party...I figure my car is mostly illegal anyway...if I have a big shunt they aren't going to pay out if they look at the car so why have full comp....haven't had a shunt ever and saved enough to pay for new car by not having full comp.

Anyway..who does third party and how much??

Cheers

Russ

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
