apparently they have allocated points associated with certain mods eg. 50 points for a/m zorst, 100 points for a/m rims and sh1t like that...not sure wat the maximum number of points allowable is tho...heh....who cares

im also 25yo and with suncorp and have a gtst r32...i think u did get a mong tard :P

Hrmm.. my previous insurance was.. Just Cars.. R34 Gtt, with minor mods 1515 for a year. Tho I was listed as Rating 1 with no previous accident history and no fines, blah blah blah. So I was pretty happy at the time :cheers:

Another company you can try is http://www.vigilins.com.au/ I'm not sure how good they are as I only found out about them recently. So no harm for you to try if you havent already done so. :D

Whats the best insurance people have found?

i had suncorp lined up about 9 mths ago they said i had to wait untill i was 25 and then they would insure me for a turbo import (skyline Gts-t 33) for $1000 bargin!!

now im about to get the car i ring up to make sure they will do it and the tell me sorry we only insure the r33 GT, GTS and GTR,  no gts-t, WTF!!!! :werd:  AND they tell me the skyline GTR is a non turbo!!

I asured them that the GTR is Twin Turbo so why cant they insure a single turbo

Wanker at Suncorp: "Sorry i can only insure whats on my screen and the Gts-t is not there"

So i have called just cars and they want $1200 and no pay by the month

Anyone have better insurance company?

Hey,

i've got a 93 gts t, 92 sourer insurered with shannons insurance for well under a 1000 bucks. around 600. mide u ive had another car with them for about 5 years and i'm 29 but over the years they've been really good. Shannons insure people over 25 with everything from hot rods, street machines, vintage, show cars, race cars. u name it

worth a look

Well I had been following this thread for a bit and thought I could not afford full comp, silly me.

I was with just cars for full comp but couldnt afford it this year so dropped back to fire and theft, now in the past couple days saw this thread and started actually calling up places and getting quotes, this and read that the theft is only covered up to and including $5000 with just cars, WTF!?!?!?

Anyway now happily with Suncorp, pay by the month, market value for damage and theft, although i didnt go the $300 more for the windscreen and car hire thing.

Thanks people! :D

  • 3 weeks later...

So i ring suncorp back 4 more times and they still tell me sorry we will insure your for a Skyline GT, GTS and a GTR but no GTS-T

Im just about to go looking for a skyline anytime now and im pretty pissed off that they wont insure me ( refer to the first thread )

I thought i'll try 1 more time and im not hanging up till they insure me! ( as lot of you guys said you have insurance with suncorp)

Just got of the phone 15mins ago with a quote number and 2 Authorisations from the guy on the phone and his boss to insure a skyline GTS-T with a few mods for a touch over $1000 ($1058) and its pay by the month :headspin:

Thanks too ya all for the info and the help :)

    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
    • Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.  
    • Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
