This was 3 months ago. Price differential might come down once you're over 25 perhaps, or for gts-t's since they're (theoretically :P) lower performance

Low blow..... lol

I was looking at insurance on mid size 6/4 cylinder sedans so maybe thats why it was cheaper

Youi insure imports now. Have the 32 with them as they were a sizable amount cheaper then shannons.

interesting, I have the Mazda with Youi and they were very cheap on that, will have to check them out for the GTR

I have not got any quotes yet, will be ringing around in the next couple of days.

Customs valuation was only done today for the import so I have a bit of time up my sleeve

If i am not mistaken....where u garage the car also makes a difference... if u add in the drivers above 35 clause, it brings down the premium by an arm

try speaking to Iron Chef, he has contacts...;)

just curious...how would the insurance company know if u have it on occasional use cover but drive it daily?

Not sure, I've heard of them asking neighbours how often you drive if they suspect you drive it more.

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
