Seems to be going downhill from here :)

Call Famous Class Car Insurance 1300 886 029, they are in WA.

They quoted me $3299/yr for comprehensive. I have no idea how reputable they are, but I am strongly considering them because they are a lot cheaper than other places.

Also, a few other places:

Will Suncorp do insurance in WA before I waste 10 minutes of my life on hold ?

Suncorp will nearly allways answer the phone in about 20 seconds...never ever had a problem. And i have a few other insurances through them.

0% rating 6, you will go to rating 7 after a claim and about the only people who will touch you is Just Cars for a price(experienced it myself). If you currently have insurance through some other place that is cheaper than Just Cars, don't let your insurance lapse as they won't take you back until on rating 6 again (1 year, experience again). But if you just renew the policy at rating 7 they (usually) won't decline insurance.

I tried Shannons. They said they only insure "collector or vintage cars" or if you belong to a club of some sorts (the group of guys down the carpark doesn't count unless fully incorporated). They have indicated if you are in a club they were not likely to insure you for everyday driving, only weekend club events.

But this was a little while ago, it may be different.

I'm not sure who I am with, it's a deal my father got through a broker, but he's paying around $900 for his 2 door STI and I'm paying about $850 for my R33 GTST and I'm 26, so looking what other guys are paying, I must have a good deal!

What broker?!?!?! :)

ive found that the best option is to (as soon as you get your drivers licence) put your name on your parents insurance policy as a 5% time driver. i probably only drove my parents cars about once a year.

anyway.. the point is it that my name being on their policy counts towards my NCB. so i have a 55 or 60% NCB (cant remember which one it is)... but ive been quoted something like $875 pa. for first party insurance.

i should point out that the figure includes that the car must be garaged at night and i do live in a safer than normal suburb for which i was told decreased the figure by heaps! thank god coz im so rediculously low on cash atm... haha.. but then again i will be the coolest looking guy who cant even afford to buy his lunch.. hehhee:D priorities? 1)skyline 2) eating

    • Hi everyone, I'm generally new to DIY projects, and I've browsed this forum and watched a lot of youtube videos but still have a few questions   Firstly, how does spray painting interior hold up? in particular like vinyl parts, my current mode of thinking is to use methyl spirits to take off original paint, clean/prep well, light coats, no primer or clear coat    Secondly, what is recommended for the headliner and, for example (my car is a r34), the A-pillars which are some kind of other fabric material, do you think I would be successful at retrimming these? or would it be better to go down the blacking out via Dupli-Color Vinyl & Fabric Paint    Any other advice / tips / tricks for refreshing/modernising these interiors?    Thanks

    • Just note that when trying to find a short in a globe power supply, it is best to disconnect the globe as it will allow current through to earth. With it unplugged it is easier not to get confused. Also with the r32 wiring, the high beam has 2 power supplies (one when you push the switch forward and the other when you temporarily pull it back; so if it is the high beam blowing you will need to trace both circuits

    • That's a short. Find the short. It will be somewhere between that fuse and the headlight. Start by removing the plugs from the back of the headlight and dimmer switches, and measure resistance to earth. Supply side (power from the fuse) should have none. The other side should have resistance compatible with whatever globe(s) is there (which is relatively easy to say for a normal globe, perhaps not as easy to say for LEDs). Anyway, if you have very low resistance, you defo have a short. Then you just have to run the wiring like you're running the bowel of a dog (on the operating table) that has swallowed something it wasn't supposed to.
