Hey everyone.

Just bought a 2002 M35 (Picking it up next week) and am trying to find some insurance.... Being 23 doesn't seem to be helping.

I called Just Car and was quoted $1656.00 with a $2000 excess and just wanted to know who everyone else is with?

Shannon's wont quote me as I am under 25....

Cheers.

Chris.

Now - Shannons @ $1500 with $500 excess ( Shannons do pay by the month)

Rating 1, 35 Year old, Northern Beaches

Agree value

You can get a discount on that if you have a CAMS licence.

Original question answer: Cannot help you with the under 23 thing....maybe use your Mum and Dad to register and insure the car.....will work out a shit load cheaper!

You get cheaper insurance if you thrash your car on the track? :happy:

Just Cars $1100

Shannons wouldn't touch me as the car is only in a carport. Must be garaged. If only there was room. :bunny:

Shannons.

Without mods (from memory) around $850, but that was a couple of years ago.

Currently with a number of mods, rating 1, 33y.o, agreed value, $500 excess... $1032 :bunny:

(as an aside, I just added my Nismo suspension and PM35 Axis S front end conversion which bumped up the agreed value, but not the premium :happy: )

The M35 I have was $814 at Just Car, Comp and $600 excess with only few extras. I leave the car locked in garage. Its weird how the prices vary for the same company? It must be all about where you live.

Just car renewal came in and it went up $100! WTF? I haven't made a claim so for a year of no claim motoring they put my premium up?! Time to switch. Is it worth a phone call you think or just jump?

Try going on line and filling out a quote form from just car I bet it will be cheaper for exactly the same thing. Thats what I did after mine went up also. New quote $814. I then cancelled old policy and pay for new easy.

ALWAYS call, I've hear that the insurers regularly do this because they know that some people will just pay it without question. If you ring and ask them, it's likely that they will give you a reduced rate.

Usually, you wouldn't even need to cancel the old policy if you stuck to the same insurer...

It never hurts to ask anyway - the worst they can say is no, and if you don't ask you'll never know if the option for better pricing is there. I use this philosophy whenever I buy just about anything that I believe can be discounted.

Yous guys are gunna hate me....

Shannons, about $670.

Me 38, car standard, garaged etc.

There have to be some benefits to living out west...

Wow that's the cheapest I've ever heard, and out west as well.. I thought it was more of a liability out there. Might have to call my mate from Shannons and ask him.

Actually, what's the usage on your premium. I bet it's limited.

My full comp premium is just over 1k, rating 1, over 40 yo, garaged, with Shannons.

    • I have a 6 boost manifold and it has loads of bends etc. turbo has a cover however manifold doesn’t so I started to wrap what I could without taking turbo off. Very restricted area   are you stating wrapping could lead to cracking weld? Is that because heat is retained?    i have a exhaust gas temp right after turbo and it hits 700degree or 800 at times.   there are areas which is impossible to reach with fibre glass cloth. Is there anything I could apply such as the photo shared earlier which would formulate around exhaust pipe in difficult to reach areas, sort of like aluminium foil flexible to shape it in place?   i think from earlier reply you mentioned acl? Is this what you meant?   https://www.nstparts.com/product/acl-heat-shield-700x275     photo of my engine bay   https://ibb.co/9grHsMN https://ibb.co/bXC8KRM https://ibb.co/KV3kGZc   I am trying to cover bottom of the exhaust manifold which joins the turbo. Only way is to take turbo and possible manifold out as it also touches the engine mount which I don’t fancy doing
    • So....I managed to fix the belt coming off problem, but unfortunately i destroyed my oil pump. While testing and hitting my rev limiter a bunch, my oil pump took a shit. I actually heard it break. In my great wisdom i decided to hit redline 5 times (original plan). Lowered it to 7500 for the soft limiter. Normally it would come off on the first go. The 6th time I hit the limiter the pump broke and as i began accelerating again and hit it the 7th time, oil pressure dropped and the protection kicked in. It actually made a "tink" as if i dropped something hollow.   The motor is pulled and should be rebuilt and put back in 3 weeks. No bearings were spun and i could have gotten away with simply replacing the pump, but since i had to pull the motor....might as well build it   I made a billet tensioner and the belt stayed on without getting frayed. I also made one for a friends R33, but I was thinking of using a hydraulic unit to keep constant pressure on it when the belt stretches.
    • Yeah 98 for me, and 6.7/100 was my actual usage. On the downside the bloody thing still isn't running properly but at least they hybrid system is happy now. It starts but missfires like a bastard, and isn't throwing any code except "missfire". Thanks scoop. I did notice the AFMs are reading quite different at idle 1.33v and 1.67v so 25% variance (and have both changed and swapped them, the issue stays on the driver's side afm) so I'm looking for exhaust restriction (mouse nest?), compression issue or (hopefully not, no physical damage seen) wiring issue. Throttle might also be an issue but that is harder because you can't swap them side to side and not cheap to fire the parts cannon at.
    • I hope you're right and it somehow justifies it's existence!
