Guide: Registering and Insurance in Each Province/Territory

[morhart]

Anything on Sask?

Just some quick info for Ontarians:

State Farm will insure the car.
I am currently insured under another vehicle not a Skyline and I received a quote for the following information:
Age: 24
Driving Record: No Tickets, etc Clean Record
Location: GTA
Coverage: 500-Deduc. Comprehensive/Collision, 2Mill. Liability (full coverage?)
Discounts: Good Student, 3-star, Life Insurance Bundle

The quote was ~170/month.
^ Thats seems very reasonable to me considering Im already paying that much for a 2000 sports car worth $2k... and its hard to get anyone to insure the skyline without hesitation.

Hope this helps!

Hey FarShark, could you give me the contact info of your agent plz? I called 2 agents in Vaughan/Woodbridge area and they both said that the only way they could insure me is through facility

If it's already registered in Qc you would only need to have it inspected for BC and register it. It's like any other car in Canada.

Awesome thread! This just saved me like 2hrs searching around the Alberta Registries web site and then cross referencing it with the skylines haha.

Update for Sask:

You will need:
-Out Of Province inspection which requires:

*DOT headlights
*Rear red sidemarkers that light up
*Front amber sidemarkers and have the sidebulb in the corner light, light up when the headlight switch is either in park lights or low beam
*Third brake light (if it's a GTR)
*DOT tires
*Daytime running lights
*Then all the obvious stuff like no leaks, no loose suspension components, no worn out brakes/tires.

Also, I had an issue with having aftermarket suspension (coilovers). Because of this, the camber and caster of my car, since it was lowered, was out to lunch and could not get my car into alignment specs. I had to raise my car up, thanks to having adjustable suspension, so that my car could pass the alignment check. Keep this in mind if your car comes with coilovers.

There isn't anywhere in the SGI manual, atleast not yet, the talks about a clutch safety switch. If you fail for it, either take it to another shop or have the tech show you in the manual where it states that.

then after safety you'll need:
-Passed OOP papers
-Form 1 paper
-Bill of sale
-Pay PST (5%) if you haven't yet

That is all. Goes pretty smooth at SGI too with their updated computer system. They just scanned all my docs into their system, asked me a few general questions, and I was out the door in less than 15 minutes.

I'm going to be insuring this second one... since I'm keeping it... I will make a complete HOW-TO for registering and insuring as soon as I get this second one to that point.

And you don't have to thank me for the help... people who say time is money, are lying. Time is free, RISK is money.

No thanks required, helping out a fellow enthusiast isn't any skin off my back

Hey I know this is mad old, but do you have any updates to this? I'm currently trying to get a 1995 r33 gt-r and really want to know how abouts registering and insuring the car. Thanks!

New Brunswick:
Get appraisal
Pay 13% of what the appraisal is
have signed copy of registration
Receipt
Valid Insurance
than you are good to go, you have either 1 or 2 weeks to get it inspected ( i think 2 weeks )
