Yep im with Shannons to...got a good deal $1121 with agreed value of $20k, listed as modified and im only 21

hmm hopefully I can do around that. did they ask about speeding fines????

just wanted an up to date check on people in WA really. being 20, and not having the best driving record doesnt help. got quoted $2332 a year from JUST CAR, with around a 2100 excess. almost shat myself.

just tell em that you look after the car, that you are an enthusist and that it has an alarm and ALWAYS garaged

Just cars will rip you off bigtime (although they will isnure anyone at a price)

jdfnq think insurance will vary between a coupe and a wagon??

I'm 31, pay $900 a year for mods, never garaged with a speeding fine in the last year lol

Area also makes insuranve variable so...

hmmm hopefully they are nice to me. Ive only had three fines. unfortunately they were big ones and all happened in the last 6 months. so I have 1 point left. :laugh::yes:

i think im in trouble

Just Car Insurance aren't that bad. Only downside is you dont get to choose your repairer (they get 2 quotes and go with the "most competitive"(?) quote) -but any repairs do come with a guarantee (i know its a long time but not sure how many years from memory).

I pay ~$900 a year through just car insurance. excess is a killer at something like $1400 but fortunately I haven't had to use that yet (touch wood). I'm rating 1 and I'm 25. (was same price when i was 24).

Shannons dont insure under 25's so I haven't yet gotten a quote from them. Might try soon since they seem to be a good insurer. My only concern with shannons is that they may be too picky with where the car is garaged (or not) and what mods it has. I've found JCI are very easy to deal with and dont ask 5 million questions before insuring your car. I dont want my insurance company dictating where and when I drive my car... :)

I'm with Shannons, soon to do house and contents with them.

Seeing as I'm the 66yo, with all my points intact, I get it pretty cheap.

An important factor is whether the car is securely garraged and also your postcode. 4272 is a secure area.

I told em the mods the car had when i got it, but i havent told em the mods ive done to the car since owning it,

there is no reason why i havent told except for the fact that im lazy and cant be bothered calling them i will do it eventually lol.

But remember i havent had any accidents nor have i lost my license and ive never been done for speeding

ACV30 Camry Sportivo with a 1MZFE V6 in front of a 5 speed manual.

Makes 147kw at the fly wheel, tops out at ~5500rpm in fifth at ~220-230kph

Not sure on the 0-100 but definatly will pull a 1/4 mile time around the high 14's, maybe low 15's, which is pretty quick for a Camry IMO.

With the manual box has some hardcore traction issues in the wet, with new tyres it frys 1st and 2nd, spins 1/2 of third too. In the dry, will comfortably loose traction at 60kph after a clutch popping.

Only gripe I have with the car, has really strong oversteer, yes, oversteer, tendancies on high speed sweepers and also under braking the rear comes out a bit. Understeer on hill climbs is also non existant, apart from corner exists in the wet when the wheels spin and the car just floats, but thats controllable.

Not too bad on the fuel, ~9's on the highway and I do around 15's city, but I drive with lots of RPM.. :P

Definatly reccomend a V6 manual Spotivo to anyone that is looking for a very decent performning, comfortable, NORMAL family car.

    • Seemed to be good when Jeff owned it but they did a shit job on my car, probably worth a think before spending 10's of thousands of dollars where they might be cutting corners
    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
