lol, im sorry about the car, but jsut seems stupid that a falcon can be worth that

I love my imports...but are you for real XY GTHO's are hawt and now woth upto $600 000.00

Edited by Slow S13
My dad owned an origional GTHO Falcon worth upwards from 150k got stollen 4 or so years back... lots of slack people out there, but what goes around comes around.

the point is; what goes around , doesn't come around to the thieving scum. when the thief gets caught [if he gets caught]he usually gets only a slap on the wrist. hardly a deterrant when there are large sums of money to be made stealing rare/valuable cars etc. we all pay for the stolen cars in higher insurance premiums.

There should be a mandantory death setence for car thieves..

better still, open season on them..a kind of civil service.

Maybe Cpt. A. Blythe could come up with something, licensing..quota's..on the spot penality's.

Anyone know of an insurance company that would payout more than $8k current market value on a R33 that's had over $25k sunk into it?? Insurance..must be joking!

My insurance pays out 14k if my R33 gets stolen, so it definately beats your 8k hahah. Oh and mines pretty much stock too, i said it had an exhaust system and a sound system, thats it i think.

Even having insurance doesn't mean you get your money back, you gotta pay for the insurance claim and 98% of people here have probably spent more on their car than insurance will come close covering.

That's the point I was actually making, most insurance won't cover anything like the value you've sunk into your car, just current market value. Red book on a '95 non turbo R33 is 8 - 10k, depending on condition.

Even agreed value, if you look at the conditions on a lot of contracts says 'agreed value or current market value, whichever is lower' which is a total rip.

COOL ATTITUDE; BUT HAVE YOU HAD A CAR STOLEN?

Cool post.

BUT HAVE YOU READ MORE THAN THE FIRST 3 POSTS IN A THREAD?

True..

I've never had anything decent..

like your rare '93 HCR32 & '93 Nova

I've had a non insured car stolen before.

$16K worth of S14.

My stupid mistake for thinking no-one would want a stock series 1 S14.

I learnt from that.

so everything is insured.

But it's true.. I guess i don't care for cars as much as I used to.

it's just a car now.

gets washed occasionally, gets fuel and gets serviced.

If it gets stolen, it will save me the hassle of going through trying to sell an R33 gtst.

That's going to be fun soon enough I guess.

iadore4door34s - I asume you have a rare 4 door R34 now? no doubt with the rare glorified auto? or are you in to just dreaming about them?

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
