haha

excel, 20, in dads name, 6 points on license, $600 with sgio

excess is 400+350

shows ya that sometimes it doesnt really matter what type of car it is, but what type of driver it is (i mean george's is cheaper then mine and the car is million times better :P and its in his name - mines in my dads name)

What type of insurance is yours? Mine is just the most basic 3rd party one, & hence the price (well at 1st it was $328, but JC shaved off $20 coz I paid online using credit card :) ).

The type of the car plays a bit of a role I guess, but not much in 3rd party insurance. If I still had my mum's old VN as my car (thank god that I don't :woot: ), I would guess that the price for basic 3rd party would be ~$200 max with RAC. Coz it was like only ~$120 with my mum when she still had the car.

Car: R33 GTS (NA :))

Company: Just Car

Cant put it in my dad's name. Cant go up too much when I get my license, can it? They dont even know about my exhaust or rims :D

your getting your balls ripped of on that price.

My NA R33 was only $700 and agreed value of $14000

this was when I was 17 too and just got my license.

think you should try HBF bro..

Only had my Skyline S2 R33 GTST for the last 15months, first year had if insured with Famous for $732

When renewal came this year the bastard jacked up the premium to $1140

I am an "old fart" of 41 with a pretty clean driving record and no claims in the last 7 years...(2001 hit a Roo in my Commodore 50k's outside Kal); so I thought WTF and jumped on SAU to search for an alternative,...some posts mentioned "Just Car", hopped on thier website filled in the online form including all mods quote came in @ $750

Rang Famous to give them one last chance,...they couldn't car less.....So now I am with Just Car....thanks SAU

Edited by R32 Driver

Got my just car insurance renewal (3rd party fire + theft) in the mail today and the bastards jacked up the vehicle excess by an extra 50%! The vehicle excess was $500 last time I renewed and now it's been jacked up to $750! I've been with them for 3 years and haven't made any claims, the premium has only gone down by about $20 since the first year I was with them. Going to call them up, complain and then look for other insurers if they don't do something about it. I looked at the policy document briefly and didn't see any mention about excess possibly increasing if you don't make a claim.

Sounds like HBF could be good but do they insure under 25 year olds? I'm 22, had my licence cancelled in 2005 for excess 0.05 and have had a couple of speeding fines. Also one claim back in 2004. Only looking for third party (with fire and theft if available). Oh yeah it's an R33 GTST with barely any mods (exhaust/suspension/air filter).

btw when you guys get quotes and don't have such a clean driving record make sure you listen to the questions they ask carefully. Most of the times they are only interested in claims/infringements/offences in the last 3-5 years. If they ask you about your history and don't mention how long ago to go back, ask them because it'll make a huge difference to your premium/excess.

My vehicle excess is $750 as well, which gives a total excess of $1800 :) ($450+$750+$600)

& JC got my policy screwed up as well, they added the theft excess ($500), even though I only applied for basic 3rd party. Took them like 6 month to realize it & only just got it changed correctly today.

Hopefully my premium goes down a bit next year, but not keeping up high hopes for it...

    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
    • Paint is only structural when applied to the outside of Chinese and Indian cars. Otherwise it should never be present between mechanical joints that were intended to be metal to metal. Pain slips, slides, cracks, compresses, and add thickness that wasn't intended to be there. It comes firmly under the category of "just no".
    • appreciated it thanks   There are threads on the adaptor. I rear re anodising but didn’t know it will reduce strength   re mating services needing to be flat/ not painted, why would that be? I am devastated as car been off for a year, fixed power steering then installed bm57 master cylinder and just before driving it this came up. So annoyed   worried and afraid to drive it, no fun caliper coming off
