May have to write a nice letter to Office of Fair Trading as a $660 increase is hideous!

Do it, online quote listed as 1562.00 so guess what.... They can stick that up their a$$.

Will call tomorrow to confirm, but lumleys sounds like the go!

OP is from Melbourne, and i dont think NRMA insure VIC.

My friend has his 34 GTR insured for 50k with just cars. 1yr ago $1500pa, this year they tried to raise to $1900pa, but he got them to agree to $1600 p/a . I was so shocked when they quoted $2k p/a for $13000 agreed value on my stagea.

Hey all, got a bit of info off just cars... Basically Due to weather issues around aus over the last year re- insurance has gone up ( insurance providers for insurance companies) looks around 35- 50 percent.

Just cars, aami all owned by suncorp which took a big hit in the floods etc

Gonna get quotes of lumley spec vehicles anyone else gone with them?

Currently I have Shannon's at $1550 for agreed value $28k, hasn't changed in years.

Lumleys price was for $18k value which is about right, might have to switch as its a massive saving

What are they like with listing modifications?

Only mod is sway bars, $28k agreed value was a quote 4 years ago that never changed just kept sending out renewal, its a tough decision, do I save money now or make some if it's written off. .

will probably save money now. . still undecided. .

WTF, is this for real, this old thread . What type of insurance cover would that have been for, or is that mate's rates.

The best Lumley's could do for me was this, Feb 2017

Autech 350s 6 sp

Original quote $ 2, 786. 00,

Amended quote, $ 2, 349. 20 (after a firm get the flying fu#k away from me). There was no third offer. Lol !!

Comprehensive cover,

Value $20,000, (I wanted replacement or $ 30,000 + )

$1000 excess,

No salvage rights.

That would mean in affect that if I had this cover at the quote I was given by Lumley's, first off I'd be feeling pretty riptoff n broke,

Secondly after just 5 YEARS they would have charged well over the odds in my view and well over half the purchase price of my staggie in the first place. Doesn't seem quite right to me. The ex recons I'm a tight arse,

Rego, green slip and insurance due in six weeks can anyone point me in a better direction than this over blown rip.

NRMA are about $900'ish recently, Shannons similar amount, but thats rating 1, over 40 north shore.

Cheers paramour, I think we both noticed the nth shore part of that picture. I live in merrylands (car is garaged) which has been a very high crime area in the past, ( mostly bikie related, ie ice dealing and shootings ) ,so perhaps that would account for Lumley's outrageous quote. Yeah right!!! So we will try some of the others here in the next few days , see if the merrylands factor comes into play with them. Cheers mate ,

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.

      It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.

      Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!

      Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
