Insurance = incase shit happens

if you dont crash or get crashed into you should get it back.

its only fair

nrma cost $8500 per year for me in 5 years if u dont crash in those 5 years you could have brought a r34 GTR if you brought a shitbox and saved

22k for my car +8500x5=42500

solution was not to go with nrma Brokers are the best source for cheap insurance

my 27cents

Who has illegal mods and has insurance and has made a claim and not been detected or actually been rejected?

Who has "forgotten" to mention everything?

When you read all the companies policy terms, it clearly states the car must comply with the states regulations.

Now considering a pod and an a/m cooler are not allowed ( in VIC anyway ) there must be many many of you guys that have more illegal mods, management etc and also pay a shitload p/a for cover?

Fully comp. R33 Gtst

last year was $1350.

this year am 22 with a rating 1

am paying $1000

thats why justcars and agreed value is $18000.

thats with mods suchs as 18" chromes, full bodykit, piggyback computer, FMIC, boost controller and turbo timer listed in the policy

Interesting

They let you reel off all of your mods ( knowing they are illegal ) and charge you more money for doing so.

But if a claim was to be made, they could tell you to read the policy stating about the legalities of mods and could refuse the claim.

Who has made a claim and had no hassles, with declared mods?

With Classic and paying $2200... for full comp and rating 1 ... aged 28... $1000 excess and no other drivers covered

1998 GTT r34

listed audio install, 18" rims, exhaust system, air filter and coil overs

@ market value

tried getting them to reduce, but they wouldn't budge (this is the second year with them)...

heath Lambert was charging me 3k before and jumped to 3300 so i guess Classic's reasonable.

I have full comp, $1400 a year. I would have just gone third party, but my main concern is having the car stolen, as it lives outside, and you can't get third party fire + theft in the ACT (i think you can now tho, but not when i took out my policy).

I pay $558 a year with Unique Car Insurance. These guys are underwritten by Lloyds of London, yes, that Lloyds! Full comp, agreed upon value, no restriction to modifications providing it is legal in my state or is certified. Great to deal with, actual ppl down there have a love for cars and motor racing.... a rare attitude these days.

I am a rating One and g/f is rating two. Was with Shannons with a previous car, but after it was stolen, and their attitude to people with a legit claim I pulled my 'sponsorship' from them. Never, ever, ever will I go back to Shannons.

Yeah, I agree, 3rd party property should be the minimum. I was hit last year by an un insured person and they are still paying the insurance company back.. at a LOT of their paycheck.

What do you think someone with a show car would have? Full comp, I wonder how expensive that would be..

I'm a P plater still and pay $680 on third party with Just cars, ths good thing is that I get a rating. So i'm waiting to get off my P's then see how much insurance will be full comp, by then i should HOPEFULLY be on rating 4.

I made the mistake of insuring under my dads name and didnt get a rating for the 1st year, knock on wood I have been driving just over 2 years and not had an accident * Knocks on wood* =)

Btw i was quoted $3500 rating 5 full comp with just cars. My car being a R33 Skyline GTS-T.

Was with suncorp for $2700 initially untill the first crash (They refused to renew my policy funnily enough), then changed to NRMA (Of all people) with old boys NCB it turned out to be $1500.

Since this year though I have spent all my money on just getting the poor thing fixed and running again (I kid you not, fortnightly pay sucks) Just running on Comp 3rd Party at the moment. As soon as the banks let me increase my P/L or Credit cards, I will go looking for proper insurance again. The Third Party with Fire and Theft is also an option if thats all I can afford :)

Well if its the same as NSW, the third party with rego is "Third Party Injury" insurance ie if you injure another person you are covered.

"Third Party Property" insurance covers you if you hit someone's car or property. If you don't have at least this you will be personally liable for every cent of damage

Who from? I didn't know any insurers offered that in NSW!!!

for skylines or in general? there are plenty of insurers that offer third party fire and theft for other cars, I had about 5 quotes for the mighty navara.

    • Thanks for your insight, it being basically useless will impact my decision for sure. I thought it may help the engine breath better I guess. But then again, I have also been told that tuning an RB20DE is also not worth it. Exactly, we follow EU Regulations. There is a bit more leeway on older vehicles. My Porsche 924 came without a cat from factory and managed to pass, they still mentioned that I have quite high emissions on it though.
    • My apologies, I stand corrected. Thanks for registering to mention this! And thank you for actually reaching out to the council to clarify. This is the sensible thing to do and the opposite of what I was alluding you were doing. I may have seen too much outrage and hate being fueled on the internet and it has made me a somewhat cynical old man. Sometimes it is easy to forget that there are real people behind websites and accounts. In my defence, CarExpert and CarExplore do read quite similarly at a glance. I shall try and do better in the future. (Please stick around to get the latest scoops on dealing with old Nissan shitboxes )
    • Don't bother. The poor little RB20 doesn't make enough gas flow to challenge the flow capabilities of even the littlest cat, and you won't make any extra power, and all you'll do it soot up your rear bumper. Plus....is Malta not runing under Euro regs?
    • Hey Daniel, sorry to hear that and thanks for posting up for us at a really hard time I only knew SmoothLine through the forums, we never met as we are based in different states, but when he was most active on here he was quite a while back so not many of the current crowd might remember him. I am pretty sure he was active in the Queensland SQU club but that is defunct now too (times are changing and we are all getting older). Farewell SmoothLine!    
    • Turns out depending on whether the car was equipped with TCS or not there are different signals coming to the dash, meaning there are different speedo clusters.  Wired in a speedo calibrator box from aliexpress and now works fine.
