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.

    • Donut tried them out, they were fine as long as the bolt or nut wasn’t very tight 
    • It is a very complicated plastic tank. Sitting between the rear seats and the rear subframe. Requires a siphon venturi pump in the hat to suck the fuel from the passenger side to the driver side of the tank. The answer is probably prepping the tank very carefully to eliminate all fuel fumes, drilling any cracks to stop propagation, then plastic weld. I don't really see any other solution here. 
    • Does anyone know when your oil drops viscosity, if it is an issue? I imagine with tuned cars they will be overfueling more compared to a stock standard car and will thin out over time. 
    • anyone ever used these ? https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/186214260439?_skw=socket+set&itmmeta=01JEG3TKV388ZXGP8N7CHNCQ45&hash=item2b5b3c1ed7:g:mhAAAOSwwB9lf~Xm&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAAwHoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKkJwJeiNMm%2FsStacz%2BhjzBowaFnbNCowwe08vVGrW0FbesCs%2Flw%2FQYjDQLjKsuKvgysWT9%2F4b9AZUX3qLP5RDfFhtD8DxufvqBbyZrQAQXuG3h8%2BxxqhWhH8fIfU84eA9W7VIpxDNw9MWj9BdfkkMasYhcqOjTrcKwLyD3ftzZbaZb2Us7%2FFR1Q2kcT68ZYRU77%2F%2BtRr1qBS27BXxh%2FjWBQxhWyUcLlEFIb%2BITZPIKwxQ%3D%3D|tkp%3ABlBMUOy96oP0ZA   I believe the idea being, the rods push back around the shape of whatever nut you put in there. Sounds pretty handy to just need to carry 1x socket in the car for 'most sizes'  but, theory vs reality, anyone tried them?
    • I'm not that familiar with R33 tanks. Plastic? Up behind the rear seat between the towers? Or under the boot floor like a normal car? It's the battery that's up between the towers isn't it? So, plastic tanks. Well, um. The obvious reco is plastic welding, which you'd only look at asking someone who's really good at to contemplate trying. The fuel contamination and grot is probably going to make it quite difficult though. Whether plastic or steel - the end of the crack will want to be drilled before any welding or sealing is done. Otherwise it will just continue to wander along until something bad happens. Steel tank? The obvious answer is drain, wash, purge with inert gas and drill the crack end and weld/braze/silver solder/whatever the guys who do that to fuel tanks recommend. I had a crack/hole/leak in the bottom of a Commodore tank (oe was it my ALFA? - can't remember) that I slammed some gorilla snot onto and it never leaked again. It worked surprisingly well. Or, it's time to fab a new tank.
