Me personally, no.

I presume you have some involvement with 'Just Insurance Services'

Looks like a great policy.

Certainly don't have anything to do with them other than having one car insured through them, there are still 10 with Shannons at this stage. Just sharing my findings and savings other may be able to benefit from, kind of insulted you presumed I have something to do with them... just as you do with Shannons.

I work for Marsh (look them up).

sorry, you gave me that impression, wasnt meant to insult. good find with that company nontheless, looks like a good policy.

All good. :blush:

Are you an underwriter? I read you changed positions? So I guess, more to the point, were you an underwriter? What do you do now? :yes:

When I got quotes about 6 weeks ago for a 34 GTR - Shannons was better than Just cars by about $250 a year - and Shannons insured my car from the moment it landed on the docks from Jap - which was fantastic, as I'm in Perth and my car landed in Brisbane for compliance. So even though I havent even seen my car yet or driven it - its been insured since the 20th of June.

Shannons FTW

Get a quote from Just Car Insurance and call Shannons to compare.

Good stuff!

It's good to hear that people driving imported performance cars have such a choice now, they really are more clued up to insurance these days. The market is commpetitive enough for the premiums to be reasonable.

well, my renewal was up for my insurance a few weeks back, with Just Cars (was with them for my last 2 cars), and i went with Shannons (thanks _8OO5TED_) instead.

The premiums between the 2 companies were virtually identical (within $50ish of each other)... the differences were:

*Just Cars 'agreed value' (yeah, what they agreed to, i had no say in the matter) on my car was approx $5000 less than what the agreed value with Shannons was (that i actually agreed to! :O)

*Just cars were going to give me a rating 6 NCB, as they refused to honour my previous 3rd party fire and theft policies with them etc, whereas i got a much better NCB through Shannons (they honoured previous 3rd party policies)

*Excesses etc were cheaper through Shannons

    • With my pre/power I use a remote trigger cable(3.5mm jack each end). I turn tv on, it turns both on via ARC. Or, just the pre with the remote or its streaming software, turns on both. Not that difficult at all. Obviously,  you would also want to actually update/upgrade over other factors in your life(bills, family, other hobbies, etc)
    • Yeah, nightfall was very "meh". And I'm crap at pvp, so feels like everyone has cheats(it's just my lack of skill). Final shape has been pretty good. New raid and dungeon are pretty good. If you want to give it a go, probably wait until it's on sale. But, as usual, most of it feels very familiar. 
    • This morning was Kingswood's Microscopic Wars. It is the album's 10 year anniversary this year and we went to see them play the whole album as a special show a couple of months back. Was pretty spectacular.
    • Yeah I would like to try and get a ADM car to reduce issues with insurance. I've decided if I end up getting this car I will set it up to be a sleeper build, leave it looking stock/dad spec on the outside I wonder if you can just drop in the 400r/Red/Z ECU or better still use a flashing tool to copy the map off one. Backup the factory map and then flash the 400hp cars onto the 300hp cars ECU?
    • Nah, yeah, nah. Speakers have a nominal impedance of 8 ohm that looks more like 6.4 ohm when measured. The receiver's amplifiers (all channels) are all rated to 6 ohm (I think, it's been a long time since I cared). The real problem is that many modern class D amps have aggressive protection circuitry that cuts off the fun if they think too much current is being drawn. And with my speakers having series crossovers, as opposed to more typical parallel crossovers, and big TL enclosures, they can certainly dip down to lower impedances at some frequencies and that easily triggers the protection. Pioneer receivers are somewhat famous for it, but even Denon, Onkyo, et al, all have many complaints against them across various models. It only does it when listening to music at high levels. You have to be putting your ears at risk to do it. But sometimes I want to do that. If I was serious about using it as a listening room I'd simply upgrade the amp for the front pair to a nice Rotel or something, and just use the receiver for signal handling and processing - although that would be a bit of a pain in the arse too. Have to switch on more shit, pre-amp volume vs main amp volume, etc etc.
