Well to get a loan for skyline i had to sort out all this insurance crap and speaking to robyn she quoted me 4 different figures (ranging from 2600-4500). If i payed it all upfront she would do it for $3400, but i couldnt do that so it was going to cost me $700 upfront and 10 monthly payments of about $370. Using monthly debits adds almost another grand on the premium. Bugger that

My mate comes goes in a week later and with a worse driving record, no NCB, almost identical car (skyline) etc (remembering i live in a much better area than him) it only cost him $2500. They seemed to stuff me around and when i cancelled (after i found out that RAC wouldnt give me a loan for skyline) they were very, very unhappy.

My excess was going to be 2500 at least.

WRX is SO much easier / cheaper for insurance.

But they are looking after my mate really well (and by the sounds of it, you too)

yeh i understand what your saying.

Im reasonably happy with the RAC and the only mods that they said no to was something like autronics, but when the time comes, what they dont know, wont hurt them.

Everything else like zorst, FMIC was cool as long as its done in a legit way.

One thing that will never change is that ALL insurance companys are wankers!

    • 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.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • 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
