I won't piss muck about explaining everything.

Took out a policy with Just Cars last year.

-Full Comp.

-Rating 4

-Over 25.

-Flawless Driving history

-$400 Excess.

-$3870.00

Was always gonna be a big premium coz it was my first car and first insurance in my name. But i wasn't gonna get anything other than THAT exact Skyline so i was fully prepared to take the hit.

Just got the renewal form in mail.

Same policy, same rating, same everything.

EXCEPT FOR THE PRICE.

ONLY$1500!!!!!!

NOW ITS TIME TO

:rave:

I hope you have paid it straight away b4 they change their mind?

I can see a point to that though I believe you are at most risk with a turbo car within the first 6 months of having a crash if you survive a year you risk is really only the same as a normal car casue you arent goign to have a stupid accident comming on boost in the wet etc and you have proved you treat you car with respect.

good one.

my premium for my cefiro is $600 a ear with just cars ( full comp) :P

god damn.. i'm getting a cefiro :P

Mine never came down after first year.. stayed exactly the same (although it was pretty low to begin with for a modified GTS-T) and i've been rating 1 for 3 years. Think i should shop around again?

Gee i dont know how u can fork out 4k a year on comp

when u have to pay 2k excess...u might aswell put that money aside and if u do have a crash should be enough to repair your car...

Im only 3rd party but have money aside just in case something happens.

i cant believe how some of u dudes fork out all that money for car insurance.....i suppose the bast_ rds leave us no choice.......Im also with just cars and pay around the 1300 mark for full insurance

I even think that is too much because im a rating 1. When i had my beamer i was paying around the 800 mark full insurance

Turbos are EVIL to insurance companies......

Its almost a joke isn't it.. now if you think about it, I mean sure skylines get in accidents, but its not like the majority - it seems they base their premium on the fact that the majority of turbos are going to be in an accident at least once a year!

Makes you wonder about other cars though - they're either get in much much less accidents (hmm, still doubtful on that one), or somebody is just trying to fleece certain people for as much as they can!

Aaargh flex mate. That totally sucks. Mebbe, u might be better off with a different car right now? Cos in a few year's time u can get another R33 (not a SII tho)

this is my first year driving the skyline.. so i'm getting Comprehensive.. but if i'm accident free for the year, then i'll get 3rd party but if my insurance do go down that low like wardest.. i will most likely consider it. :headspin:

    • hahaha @joshuaho96 the most action it gets is when I have to drive from West to SE VIC to meet the fam. Even then, it;s on highway cruising speeds
    • don't know anyone in this thread, but i just found it, read the entire thing in a few hours, realized greg is still posting progress, and just have to say, this is awesome. it looks awesome. 100% right about the Uras kit making it a pain to get on hoists...have the same kit on my 34 and it takes six 2x4s and race ramps to do it without taking parts off. this reminds me exactly of this thread. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/build-projects-and-project-cars/r63-amg-the-unicorn-of-my-destruction/110824/page8/
    • The only way to make that better is to weld on some bozozoku tips up past window height and roll with the cool kids.
    • I'd want an even MORE side on view. More or less you want to make sure the outlet is actually square with the outermost part of the bumper. Or you end up getting soot all over your bumper from your hektik exhaust. In any case, it looks pretty close. I think the way to fix this is probably more of an overhaul at an exhaust specialty shop if you want tips that are rounded off or sit nicely with the bumper but have proper clearance and don't move - Probably more of a redesign than a quick fix. I've pencilled in my own exhaust with its own various problems, pinholes, PITA fitment, and other issues and can see myself going to a shop and saying "JUST DO THIS BUT BETTER?"  Which is gonna work better than any more small fixes. I'm gonna chime in here officially with "from an outsider perspective this exhaust looks fine so this is self OCD probably" (which I also suffer from)
