After reading this thread and hearing about people paying about the same for their R32's full comp as i'm paying for just third party +fire&theft i thought it was about time i gave NRMA a call......then i found out they dont insure people in VIC, the woman told me they usually forward people to the RACV. I didn't think they would but i gave them a call and sure enough they will Insure me with a car value of $18000 for $400 odd! that is epic, i'm switching today. The guy told me it's exactly the same as the NRMA policy just branded RACV.

Good stuff.

Totally agree here on Justin's thread.

What title does RACV give it?

What restrictions, if different from NRMA Vintage Classic & Veteran?

The RACV calls it : Veteran, Vintage & Classic Car Insurance here is the link: http://www.racv.com.au/wps/wcm/connect/racv/Internet/Primary/insurance/car+insurance/veteran,+vintage+_+classic

The guy i spoke to said it's exactly the same as the NRMA policy

The guy i spoke to at justcar when i called to cancel my policy couldn't believe i was leaving to goto racv, he seemed to think they had made a mistake and i was just lucky to not be refused by them.

I tried to explain to him that, No it's not a mistake and it's different to normal racv because it's the classic, vintage, veteran, but he still seemed doubtfull.

when going ahead with my new 'racv' policy the girl told me that it is exactly the same insurance as the nrma, (ie if i called nrma from nsw wanting classic car insurance she is the same person that i would be talking to), She said it's actually a better deal with the racv as i get 8 free roadside assistance call outs per year as opposed to the nrma's 2.

I'll vote for thread of the year..........certainly has made me a happy man

Good to see Shannons getting a run for their money.

however will be interesting to see this time next year with everyones renewals. Will they increase or not?

these lower premiums + high performance cars (lower exposure being limited use though!) may seem not enough 'premium pool' to cover claims (large losses) meaning an increase of premiums + excess.

however if they are on to something good and have good portfolio management - they are on to a good thing and its a winner for you guys!

maybe even someone ex shannons/lumley works there now and seen how to run this segment !

good bye shannons!! time for me to leave them too...but its only my mx5 I'd be able to take there...thats if they offer storage/laid up cover.

Pfft. I would still rather switch and save $1200.

As for thread of the year??? About insurance. Pretty boring thread. But I guess it's saving people a lot of dollars.

    • Could someone post some pictures of the factory Jack , tools, spare tire and how they were in a 1998 ER34 2 door skyline originally?
    • UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their proven reliability, predictable performance, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!  
    • I've previously seen people post up "dress up bolt kits" for RBs but don't remember seeing them specify the full contents. I can only really suggest you grab the verniers and start measuring, and keep in mind the cam cover and timing cover bolts are both quite specific with a wider unthreaded section where the bushes sit, that will make it hard to get aftermarket replacements which tend to be all thread (set screws) or for longer bolts a flat section with a shorter threaded section at the end
    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
