im 18 and just cars quoted me 2746 for my 1996 gts-t unlimited mods (i have racked up the highest points with the mods i have)

premiums have come down about 800 in the last 3-4 months from just cars, only way i could afford my skyline lol

insurance premiums have dropped dramatically since a few weeks ago.

hrmm, i reckon just car should tell u straight off if a mod is legal or not. coz its not technically "easy" finding a particular rule to say if a particular mod is legal or not. if its not legal they should tell you straight away.

im not with justcar, my friend is and they told him that it was his responsibilty to make sure the mods are legal, not justcars'.

take for example the exhaust modification rule in NSW. "A vehicle cannot be fitted with an exhaust system which will work less effectively compared to factory OEM". say i get a full catback fitted onto the skyline, doing so immediately voids the rule, coz its not factory OEM specs. yet you have the option to tick "exhaust modifications" on the contract. yeh, "modifications". but who the hell is gonna change an exhaust(non sports) and tick yes? at fault claim rejected ? maybe.

you will be able to fit a cat back exhaust because it will work better than the OEM one.

but it also depends on what they classify as a "less effective exhaust".

well my quote isnt exactly word for word from the actual rule. but i do remember it being rather strict.

it sounds pretty stupid I think. They say only legal mods and it's our responsibility, so they will cover us for illegal mods, charge us extra and then possibly not pay out if something happens. They quoted me extra for my mods (exhaust and BOV) and it's third party, so they won't pay for any damage to my car anyway.

      Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.

      Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.

      Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
