Hey I am looking into buying a 92’ Nissan Skyline GTS. Does anyone know of a place in Toronto that will insure it? I am trying to find somewhere to get a quote so that i can get a price before i purchase the car. Any ideas? ---

certas can probably help you, ask them about their 19a policy. you will most likey need an appraisal though. ---

Most companies will insure a RHD vehicle if you already have a policy with them. Due to the same reason though, pretty much no one will insure it if you’re not already a customer. Try your parent’s insco, prolly your best bet. ---

You’re not going to get a decent rate unless you’re over 25 and have a sweet Driving record. If you check out GTRCanada we’ve got a long ass thread about this very subject. Hardly anybody is taking non 17 digit vin’d cars. In case you didn’t know this is how insurance works: you call up, they ask for your vin, In each vin is a description of the car. So for any 240sx it’s: Nissan, Year, 2 door, auto/manual, 2.4L 4cyc, color. From this they assign a risk rating to each vehicle type. Then they take your license plug it in, the computer spits out a number for how much you owe them and they tack on their percentage. With a non 17 digit vin you can’t do this. You have to deal with the underwriters. It’s a hassle and you pay though the ass. So to avoid the problem. For Ontario Re-vin: you need to call 416-252-3441 and speak with Sheila. Ask her for a re-vin application. Once you have filled out your application, and have paid the $450+gst fee, they will come out to your home to check the car out and begin to build a new vin number for you. You pay first as they check the car out to see if it stolen or wanted by interpol. After the inspection has been preformed, you will receive a new Ontario vin number a few weeks later. this will help in insuring your car here as any insurance company can plop the vin into there system, because of this you will not have to deal with the underwriters(they’re the ones who refuse to insure you, ie 19A polocy). to illustrate this, the Cefiro for instance, now the vin reads: Nissan, 1988, 4 door, 2L 6cyc. Manual, blue. Call up any insurance co and get a quote on the spot. No more hassle. ---

They do require some things: Appraisal with 6 pictures. valid Cert/ e-test Drivers abstract “$10 at the ministry” car need to be Ontario registered of course. Also they also might want to know a few things about your past and it will all take 4-6 weeks before your car is insured. ---

instead of having to re-vin the car,you can go through sutherland insurance in guelph or use a company called optimum, they both gave me quotes for my gtir for 146 month, only catch is thjat if you crash the car they only pay out what your bill of sale says ---
