guys what is the deal with insurance as if you have an accident

iam getting insurnace for my 180sx in prob feb next year.

now i have been driviing for 1 year third parity and iam 50 50 driver.

and just cars wont put me on rating 5 the bastards.

but if you do have an accident what is the deal? does your rating drop down by 1 or does it go all the way back to 6?

if i was on rating 1 and had an accident and it was my fualt will it drop? and if it wasnt my fault what happends?

and also if you had insurance with another company like racv on your parents car . like one of you guys said. and then you have an accident with your car what happends

As far as I know:

1. If you have an accident and need to make a "claim", you lose your "no claim" bonus, I presume you go back to the worst rating

2. 3rd Party Comprehensive does NOT give you a no claim bonus.

Just Cars told me last week they don't acknowledge that you are on your parents policy. They said they don't, don't want to know, not counting for didly squat. So check which insurer you go through first before applying this idea.

I do know Suncorp will take it. But as my mother has sinced passed away, and there is not record of me being on this policy i got no chance.

While on hold with Just Car on the telephone they say that if you have have third party cover for the last 5/6 years, they will give you 60%NCB.

Suncorp is a more reputable company but once you are over 2 mods and are <25 ur insurance premium skyrockets.

Most young ppl i know are with Just Car, but i would like to know anyone who has had to claim with them. Good or bad. So if u can PM me of any experiences that would be great.

that is if you have had third party with them only i believe. i remember the hold messages. i've spent alot of time on hold with insurance companies

NIZ30 is right about Just Cars not accepting your NCB if you were a nominated driver. you need to have had cover under your name for them to acknowledge it. i tried this one too:(

Just Cars Insurance is operated by AAMI, so they are just as reliable as Suncorp. I am 22 and went through Just Cars to insure my R32 GT-R for $3200, i can do unlimited modifications to my car as long as 1. I tell them and 2. They are roadworthy. The next cheapest was AAMI itself for $4400....

I've just moved from canberra to sydney. Im with Suncorp. I told them of the change of address and my premium has almost doubled. man I thought Mosman would be low risk. Any way called up famous, there qoute was better than I had with suncorp in canberra.

Are these people reputable, saw there add in HPI. Or are they too good to be true???

    • Don't do it if your gearbox box has already having syncro issues. The short hifter will put a greater load on them. If you must I remember Nismo did a shorter shifter, with the top part being physically shorter and the part that went into the gearbox was the same as stock. In saying that I've had a C's short shifter (I think) in mine for many years, which was given to me as the previous owner was not sympathetic to the gearbox. Thus forwarned I was careful and had to modify my normal changing style. You have to be super accurate with your clutch and shifts
    • Well, after a week of daily driving and having to crawl out between the wheel and the side intrusion bars. I got myself a quick release setup. I went with an NRG short hub and Quick Release with some cute heart cutouts on the pull tabs. Nice and matchy matchy with the rest of the interior accents I have going on.  The only downside is the total stack height even with the short adapter is longer than the old HKB boss kit. Luckily I had some adjustment left on the column so move the wheel away.
    • stock shifter with new bushes, springs and cup will improve it. Gktech do all the bits. The opinion as the years have gone on is the redline is not great in old gearboxes.
    • Hi all   what short shifter do you use on your skykine r34?   my synchronous does have a problem and i was getting huge delay and grinding sound between 2nd and 3rd, did put shockproof red heavy stuff and it is great now/ no issues   would in your view short shifter screw this up?   people seems to suggest/ use cube short shifter and there is standard and premium. Seen review of premium as much better and less play. Thoughts?
    • Yeah, there's a bit of a density and friability difference between pebbles and any of those other things. Silicone will definitely float in oil and so will be mobile enough to move around. Although, again, if it is upstream of the filter it really shouldn't go any further. I would only ever worry about silicone when it is in places downstream of the filter. Upstream of the pickup is a whole 'nother matter. We've all seen what that does. I have seen the most abominable crap settled out in industrial gearboxes, trunnion lube systems and the like, without any sign that any of it has touched anything in the machine. Just chilling in the bottom, waiting for the inevitable operator error that causes the whole machine to need to be dismantled for repairs.
