Renewal just came through on my 33R - 350 premium now but still 30k agreed without engine. Thought they were canceling these policies for Skylines...not even gonna challenge the figures!

I'm assuming laid up insurance rather than full comp on the road?

Correct - out on road will add about 100-150 to that

They’re not cancelling exisiting customers.

Mine went up when I renewed it earlier this year, still reasonable considering how much I drive mine now.

Barry is gonna owe a lot of lunches soon

[Birds]

Barry had chocolate sundaes delivered while he fixed my freshly split clutch line on the spot; had to force him to take money for the hour he spent doing it too...he's definitely in my good books right now!

Yep, since last year I believe.

When is BirdsR happening?

[emts]

I believe he is still looking for a good set of D1-R's in the correct offset...till then nothing.

[Birds]

Interestingly while my car was on the hoist, opposite it was a 32R with D1Rs in nearly GTR offset lol

Even I have my limits...

[Leroy Peterson]

D1Rs > Meisters

Ah yes, that’s right.

[emts]

so mate is finally jumping to JDM. parking up his HQ monaro.

where's the best place to go looking for a R34 GT-T these days?

carsales, gumtree, facebook, ???

 

 

[Count Grantleyish]

Yeah, any one of three.

Everyone’s advertising theirs everywhere these days, exposure y0

[emts]

is it still worth importing?

looking at the j-spec sold prices database I'm not thinking so 

 

(apologies to be asking skyline questions)

[Kinkstaah]

Honestly, the best way to do it is buy someone's project you can vouch for. There are no unmolested virgin R34's, nor should there be, and the ones that may exist are absolutely not worth the $.

[Birds]

One in the for sale section looks cheap enough with basic mods

[Leroy Peterson]

If he wants a really clean one, probably worth seeing what's available at auction houses... (stock, genuine kms, rare options)

 

Does he/she just want power and skids? Could get something cooler and not thief bait
