Yeah...polite is that what they call it?!?!

I went through Australian Insurance Brokers (they basically find the cheapest insurance for you) and they ended up getting me a quote for $2800 with famous classic cars...i was impressed!! Especially since my next best quote was with Just Cars for 5k!

I don't think they care how much its modified as long as its street legal, and you aren't insured between 11pm and 8am if you leave your car parked on the street - in a driveway/secure parking/actually being with the car is ok..... :D

Our friend Robyn used to work for the brokers that i used called Harringtons. She knows her cars ok and u can tell she actually gives a dam about u and ure car. They do good deals but it looks like due to my recent claim i am automatically unapplicable.:D

I hope to hell SGIO dont turn me down next year;)

Guys,

I have emailled Robyn last week regarding discounts for Skylines Australia members! She is more than happy to consider discounts on your premium if your a member!

Don't forget to mention the good word that's spreading around about them and say your a Skylines Australia member too!

This not only will help everyone else in a skyline but also everyone here on SAU!

-Kym.

If they insure in Vic id be very interested when i get my knew car. If they can get it under just cars quote ($2300) for a $15000 R32 GTST, for me (20, 30% or 40% no claims i think, no fines, no accidents) im in for sure.

its not happening here in WA yet.. so we can't be "paying members" of a car club to get a discount can we ?

We are all still members, we own skylines, stick together, to me that's a club. registered or not.

either way Robyn will still do a discount for us!

ANyway, how do u become a paying member of SAU? Or is that not happening yet?

ur from VIC... this will be up and running soon... give us a little more time as we have a few more things to sort out til we start accepting members.

obviously everyone will have to refer to their respective state commitee to find out where they are in the process.

25 60% no claim 94 gtst full comp cover for $24000

famous quoted me $1400 for this. but where willing to match RAC if i caould provide the last bill, which i have lost.

    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
    • To be fair - you see the same thing for every clutch. There's always someone making an installation error.
    • Just saw this, redacted names. It's on a R33 GTS-t Facebook group. Looks like still teething issues.
