so jimmy,. where are u going to post pics of that new white baby of yours so we can ooer at it :) you gotta come over and show me since u only 3 streets away lol

haha its sitting in my drive :D ill go out and take a photo to include in this post.

For all of us who have insurance through people like just car ect.. shop around guys.

i was shopping for insurance, 2.8 was my quote. im 21 had one licence suspension and iv only had my licence a year... never had an accident or any claims and never had insurance so im probably near the bottom of the rating scale. after shopping around i found an insurance place named Famous who quoted fully comprehensive for 1512. I drive a stock 96 hr33 which is in mint condition. i noticed just car was going to insure a 93 hr33 for me for 2.5 so it might be the year of my car.

  • 3 months later...

for my first year - 18years old, clean record, stock 1998 ltd edition R33 manual, with wheels exhaust stereo suspension = $2800 a year

second year - 19years old (:cool:), still clean record :D, same as above = $1800 for the year :(:):)

insurance is totally worth it, i got rearended with only 3rd party in my ford laser by an uninsured driver and small claims court is not fun and i never got most of the money, not risking my line

and in regards to mods, I am having this all done in the next few days, all installed professionally and quality parts

dump pipe $350

HDi frontmount (good one) $1100

fuel pump $320

fuel regulator + gauge $300

HDi electronic dual stage boost controller + gauge $420

1 hour on dyno = $160

total = $2650

yes i know i could have done it a lot cheaper and if the car was a pig i would have done all the work myself but its a near perfect engine in a near perfect car I would rather it all done properly first time (and save myself a few weekends)

just as a guide for anyone thinking of getting stuff done

got a 89 Honda legend under my name atm with RACQ, they wouldnt insure me for new car, so i phoned Just cars. $1275 A year on a turbo r34 skyline, they also put me on a rating 2 :) on my opens and I skipped all that P plate crap, but its pritty much the same amount my dad was paying on his with a rating 1, 2 or so years ago so im stoked. I have been driving for 5/6 years or so.

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
