just got off the phone with Shannons Insurance...

Not impressed.

1st - they don't know my car. That's fine, not many people do.

2nd - after telling them every little bit of detail about my past infringments/mods etc he comes back and says "we can't insure you because your car has too many mods. It needs to be in a garage"

3rd - I told him as I'm moving to a new house soon which HAS a lockup garage, can he give me a quote. He goes for another 10 min and then comes back and said "no, we can't give u a quote until you've moved into a house with a garage".

I guess I need to ring up again and lie just to get a f**king quote. idiots...wasting both our time. If they don't/can't want to insure me just f**king say so from the start...

Thank goodness JCI's online portal is so easy to use...

They should; several other forum members are insured with them. I had no issues.

I've heard of this before; I think it really depends who you get on the line when you ring, try again.

Bye stagea people, I no longer own any nissans, Just moved interstate and didnt sell the bucket(accent) in time so will just keep it for a while and not have anything fast(also to much cool shit coming out in the next year to buy new now!), I seem to get the train to work anyway and its better to have something I can park at the station and it uses f**k all fuel.

Farewell.

Agreed.

I have been with Shannon's since day 1... which literally was day 1 for M35 Stagea's!

Jethro - The dude you got will be going by Redbook which only states ARX models last time I checked.

Strange as I have never had any issues with any of the Shannon's people I have spoken to.

Also odd is that there isn't a limit on mods... just some of them will bump up your premium considerably (turbo, boost controller, engine management are biggies).

Maybe you got a new guy on a bad day? Dunno. Try them again.

Maybe...

Funny too - the guys said "since your car has so many mods it needs to be in a garage..." and "we'll need to having driver restrictions since its a very hi powered vehicle...."

I didn't even tell him any power figures! meh...

I might try again when I've moved into my new place I guess.

i had no problems with mods either, put around 8-10k of mods on the car and premium went up around $200 per year i think

yes ALL imports need a garage with shannons, locally delivered cars dont. which is weird, my fiat is probably more rare than the stagea, and i dont have to garage it.......

c'ya Ryan, take care mate

sent PM wishing you well

washed the stag on the weekend :D

I cant believe how shiny it is when you wash it after a month (or so) worth of dirt!!!

(but then I see all the little bits that need detailing too sad.gif )

Oh...I should wash my car.....I haven't given my car a wash in about 2 months....let's just say a mate of mine goes to me....your car is turning cream (it should be pearl white)....that's how long I haven't washed it for...it's been either too cold or raining to get it washed

    • 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.
