Hey guys, just doing an online quote and i was just filling out the modifications section.

Who here would classify swapping the stock r33 smic for a stock r34 smic as a modification worthy of note with insurance?

Thanks.

Hi mate i wouldnt bother mentioning htat at all. If you put a fornt mount on there then yes good idea to mention it.

Thats it. I've got every single mod I could think of on my shannons modifications list. The guy stopped me reading them out and just asked me to email it through as it was taking him ages to type it all out, so its not like its a short list.

And well, as mentioned if its not there you wont get a replacement, and if they find out they will do their best to not pay out.

best off to list everything, if the insurance company can get out of making a claim for any reason they will..."oh you didn't tell us about the different intercooler....no payment for you", even thou it's highly unlike they would pick the difference better off to be safe than sorry when you go to make a claim

Ok then point taken.

The first time i updated my mod list was with a strut brace and they hit me $120 for it. The brace cost me $120 to buy, but then i was allowed another 4 mods for free then they would stick it up again.

I might be getting a bit nitty gritty now, should i have to mention i have a hiflow panel filter in the stock airbox? Surely thats not a modification.

Yeah that sounds about rite Justcars told me that my premium only goes up after every 5 modifications listed i canr remember if thats the same with the agreed value prolly not though.

cheers allan

    • Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...
    • Foreshadowing was never so easy.
    • The ones in brackets are the first stages of tightening. I usually aim for the middle of the range. They give a range because it's actually not that critical to hit exactly the right bolt tension. Enough is enough, and too much is too much, and the range given is inside that range. Half of the bolts in the suspension are problematic for putting a torque wrench on anyway, so just get done up to mechanic tight  and spanner checked a week later.
    • Is the problem that we just disconnected the line, does it need to be plugged? I’d rather not buy another master cylinder
    • Clutch is same same. Tailshaft is not. Diff will drop in. Half-shafts will not mate up (5x1 on turbo, 3x2 on NA). There is also the strong possibility that your auto NA gets its speed signal from the sensor on the diff, not the gearbag, and that will leave you without a speedo. You can do all this, you just have to do a lot more than you thought.
