Thanks all i have made a short list of other potential insurers and will be contacting them all.

It's funny that with shannons, i was told that once i turned 25 my prem. will drop under $2000. When my rennual came it increased from $2100 to $2300, through no doing of my own. When i questioned why this was they simply said "due to the amount of claims made with my type of vehicle". So no matter how carful i am on the road if some other idiots (non of them on this forum, i'm sure :) ) keep having accidents i will still be stung. WHAT B.S.!!!

I was paying $4000 frm CGU w3nkers via Heath Lambert that decided to terminate carriage for import cars insurance, then went to Just cars for $4200.00 ... after three years, ive paid over $12K in insurance which neva gave me one moment of benefit... bsides the odd... peace of mind.

now that ive handled sooo many sore ongoing costs amplifying legal matters in relation to insurance failing to pay up to our clients due to some minor excuses about legality of certain modifications, certain obl. to inform them of every mineut details, certain minor breachs in cond of car etc etc that ends up them not accountable to the policy, its a forever ending battle.....

i don't believe in insurance anymore.

just got third party.

a muthda fooken good alarm.

don't park anywhere for more than 20minutes... (it only takes that long)

and have a second car or three.

i'm with you miz 33t... just get third party and have a bomb or co car for daily driver or beater as the yanks like to call it.. Shit if you are paying 4 grand a year in ten years you could have bought a gtr with that cash. and insurance costs are only gunna to go up... its rape and pillage. yes and a damm good alarm ..

btw off top nice dawn run pics. esp u and mona heheh

Just to clarify,

Im 22 in June.

Clean record up until Nov 2002. now only 1pt.. who cares (no insurance anyway.)

My car is considerably, uninsurabally modified.

Anything that goes beyond the general/specific modifications that are a high canditate or remotely an epa/rta suspectible victim is also uninsurable.

But i guess, the only way to find out if u have wasted several years of hard earned thousand of dollars on a "'strong as oak' policy", is to have ur car stolen or raped, then try to lodge a claim.

anywayz..

goodluck to all!

we all living in this ridiculously high cost of living society surrounded by prick ass companies making the use and abuse of us paw ppl with their obtuse, stringent and unrealistic parametuers... ^_^

hahahah dun worrie... im just a bitter ol' hag.

hey hippy, I use torque underwriting too, do a search, there is an old thread with insurance co names and numers.

As for company car, the only way to get a better deal than retail is to lease thru someone and get insured on their fleet. My car is just insured directly so I just get the regular price. Still pretty good though, about 2100 for 28yo, 97 GTST

This is the one reason for selling my good old Skyline R-33 GTS-t.. Damn insurance.. Call me a traitor, about to get into a 400HP GSR Lancer 4wd.. Funny thing about this though i am paying less than half the amount for insurance.. And the Lancer will be nearly twice as powerful?? Figure that out.....

fark that, nice avatar...

Im with franks though on this, id never buy a car and not insure it... When i had the 994t porsche, the insurance went up to $9000 per annum, i wasnt going to pay that so i sold the car... never did it cross my mind to drive it without comprehensive, accidents do happen....

thats just my opinion anyway...

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
