NAC insured me $1300 a year full cover for the GT4 when I was 24 and restricted license

But yeah, Good luck in your search for an SS-III, Post the ads here if you see any that catches your interest we can tell if it's a genuine SS-III and advise you on common faults for various ages, etc.

Many people think Beams = SS-III, but it's not, it pertains to the year the 3S-GE engine was produced.

So you may pick up an SS-III not knowing, or you may get someone trying to sell an SS-II as an SS-III.

Whether you get the Beams or not, it's definitely worth it for the Superstrut and LSD.

Like you I started with an SS-I, looked good but wanted to make it more fun. I started reading stuff and learning about my car and the engines and decided not to touch the SS-I as there was nothing worth doing which made it significantly any better, then it got written off and I was paid out enough luckily to get an SS-III and it's been quite a journey from there.

Replacing $300 arms every 150,000kms isn't so bad, anything else you could have heard probably came out of the mouth of a hater lol
