Im looking at getting Insurance through Just Cars for my R32 GTR after a lengthy rebuild.... basically have 2 questions.

1) Is Just Cars any good? Anyone had hassles with claims?

2) My car has HKS turbos, 700cc injectors and APEXi PFC. Just Cars requires your car to be road worthy and legal. I will use my PFC only for track days, and use my stock ECU for day-day driving.... however, its not so easy to swap over my 700cc injectors.

By having larger injectors, does this make my car unroadworthy or illegal (obviously emissions will have changed significantly)? Are boost controllers legal? Wat is everybodys stance on this in order to ensure if any claims are required, it all happens smoothly.

I rang Just Cars a little while back to discuss some of my latest mods and they informed me very clearly:

"Just cars can not determine what is a legal modification on your car as it varies in each state. YOU are completely responsible for ensuring all modifications are legal in your state."

Although this raises the question of what happens when an accident occurs and a mod is found not to be legal that Just Cars knew about....

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.

      yeah, there's a country that recently started importing Skylines, I blame them.

      I don't have a printer, but could at least attempt to make a printable model.
