I'm thinking of going onto a low usage insurance policy, as in the last year I've just done 8000kms...

So, for those of you who use their car for daily purposes or weekend warriors, how many kays do you do a year?

You can use the poll if you'd like

:cheers:

When i used 2 drive my Skyline 2 work everyday i was racking up about 15,000kms per year.

Now i drive my shitbox 2 work most days & keep the liner mainly 4 weekend & short trips during the week & occasionally 2 work.

I am now on an 8,000kms per year policy ($90 something per month, can't complain) so i should be pretty safe with this, not 2 mention less wear & tear etc. also.

the skyline is our only car, so we rack up a few kays in it;

got it 67k, up to 105 now and ive had it for just two years :(

saddens me to see so many ks going on, but on the flip side, i get to drive it heaps, so im happy as well

25000kays in 6 months i am the winner (so Far)

I did 8000kay in just under 3 months :kick:

I guess it would depend how many kays you drive each week.. No idea if you take the skyline out on the weekends, and do the "hey look at me" posing laps ect. I was surprised at how many kays I was doing just driving around on the weekend.

i am a whore and so's my car :wassup:

Hey Ronin 09,

I was thinking the same thing. Ihave had my line 4 over a year and have only done just over 6000km.  

Which insurance company were you looking at going with???

I got a quote from famous 4 $2000 for this kind of classic cover.

hey brendan, what rating are you?

Shannons want about 2100 for rating one 8000km/year

:)

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
