Just got my premium from just car and it has gone up 270 in one year, agreed value went down 1100 also.

Called them up and they changed premium still 160 above last year and agreed back to what was before.

Im 28 on rating 1 with no accidents or claims.

Apparently its because its a popular car and many claims have been made

Who are you thru and what are your premiums?

Looking at calling shannons to see what they say

Shannons wont insure unless there kept in a locked garage at night most of the time.

I cant complain with Just Cars, I got my renewal 2 months ago, nothing at all changed. Rating One, Full Comp, Agreed Value of $34,500. Suspension & Exhaust... And I only pay $1170. I am now 22. I used to pay half of that for my first car (S13, when i was 17) for 3rd party only!!!!

Im with Shannons, I found them cheaper then Justcars and they insured me for full value unlike Justcars.

Im 20, and they have claseed me as a rating 1, im only paying 980. but have huge excess for my age, which was the same with Justcars.

Brad i'm paying $1100 premium and like $400 excess with all mods like PFC, Cooler, wheels, kit! Thats with Shannons and i could pay by the month as soon as i started(none of this 1st year crap) and choice of repairer! The only catch is it "supposidly" cant do more than 5k kms a year! But meh i don't do that anyways!

EDIT: BTW my excess was like $700-900 before i turned 25, now 26!

Shannons FTW with my situation! If i remember Just Cars quoted me like $900 Premium and like $1600 excess, So naturally i told them where to stick it!

Another vote for shannons here. I pay ~$990 per year, 26 rating 1 for life, agreed value of $16k, and $300(??) basic excess.

Thats on an R33 GTSt Ser 1 with mods of susp, exhaust, kit, wheels, stereo, momo wheel. And any future mods they are fine with.

Best quote I could get.

Shannon's is pointless if your cars a daily driven car, and if you do 'x' amount of kays don't lock it up in a garage etc. I don't understand you guys that pay all this money for full comp but don't tell them all your mods, u do realise that if u have an accident and they see that you've got stuff which u haven't told them about then they won't cover u!

Another co. is Vigil insurance (if you can ever get through). For me, their price was similar to Shannons, but without limited kms. May be an option as a daily driver? I just chose not to go with them as I had a hard time getting a hold of them to actually get a quote, so was worried if I ever had to make a claim

Im with just cars, rating 2 now. $2,400 a year agreed value of $28,500. However, might reconsider full comp... Some advice guys, read your fine print on your insurance policy. Road Worthy means 'RTA' approved (or whatever your state road authority is). This can be debated.. if you dont have engineering certificates (hence defectable mods e.g. 20" rims, exhaust) then they COULD reject ur claim if the mod was seen to be the cause or a cause for the accident.

I suggest you guys ask.. youll get this response im sure "check with your state road authority to make sure you are road worthy". I might be stressing to much over it but remember We live in a very specific world.

im with Famous http://www.famousinsurance.com.au/

$700 full comp. age 33 rating 1

about $1000 excess and agreed value of $21,700

i was with just cars but didnt want to pay 900bux full comp and wasnt happy with $16000 agreed value

im with westfarmers insurence.

i pay $770 full comp. age 19 with rating 1 :(

$900 excess if my fault $600 if its not and insured for $14,000

they dont give a shit whats done to the car and very rarely would they put the cost of full comp up with a new modd.

downside, you must insure EVERYTHING with them but thats not really that bad ;)

kye

    • Define "Nissan big brakes". You just mean standard R34 4 pots? And...it's not even the offset you need to worry about. It's really a detail of how much clearance there is between the caliper and the back of the spoke/face, which is affected more by the design of the spoke than it is by the offset. If you think about it....take any wheel, say a 19x8 that does fit and clears the caliper. Then add or subtract an inch of wheel on the outside, without changing anything else. You have changed the offset by half an inch, but not changed the clearance situation at all. Same for if you add or subtract an inch from the inside edge. The way for you to work this out is to take a wheel off the car, grab a straight edge and a ruler or two, and start to measure the distances from the wheel mounting face on the hub to the outer face of the caliper, and the outer diameter (that faces the barrel of the wheel) of the caliper. Armed with these dimensions and any other measurement that grabs your fancy while you are there, you can then go to the seller of the wheels and do the reverse measurements from the wheel's mounting face and see if there will be clearance to the caliper. There really should be. I have 17x8 RPF1s +35 clearing the caliper face by a finger tip. Those wheels do have pretty thin spokes with some curvature.... but then so do most wheels to suit Jap cars.
    • So I’ve got a r34 sedan that I managed to get green stickered, meaning I need to go through government approved wof station for my car to be allowed back on the road for some reason my car is certed for 19x8 rims.. I need these wheels  does anyone know what offset will be fine to clear Nissan big brakes? I saw 35et for sale near me, I can’t drive the car to test fit or risk being fined ..   I searched heaps online couldn’t find anywhere..
    • Okay, with all that being said about sloppy blowing from twins, I happily acknowledge the superiority of a single turbo setup on the RB; however, I still plan on double trouble.  I know the -9s were quite popular for some time because they seemed to meet that sweet spot between the -7s and 5s, would introducing VCAM and/or stroking to 2.8L provide the additional displacement/flow to push twins closer to the 500-600 goal?  Does it make more sense for a daily to just do an engine overhaul, slap some -7s on it and enjoy a bit more reliable power?  Has anyone driven a mine's overhauled and tuned engine?  I know they certainly don't approach the power numbers that you drag monsters do down under, but for daily street usage, I just want it to be fun and healthy.
