Will be having a chat to them tomorrow

same, my premium went up, my excess went up, and my agreed value went down!!!! just got a pretty fair quote with gio customs though, apparently they'll better justcars if u fax them the renewal... i didnt need to though

here's my premium for comparison:

'99 R34 GT-T

Male

29yrs old

No tickets, accidents, claims in past 5+ years

Brisbane northside

Just Cars, full comp, named driver only (just me), stereo + suspension + exhaust noted.

$26,500 agreed value.

$947/year (down ~$50 form last year)

:rofl:

I just got a significantly better insurance quote from Ryno aswell. Problem is it says car must be regularly garaged at night... my car doesnt go in the garage, it goes behind the house (and on an acreage at that so pretty damn safe). Is it safe to just say its garaged??

Whilst your car is most probably safe in its situation- I wouldn't risk it as you may be in breach of your duty of disclosure if it comes to claim time.

no. they'll avoid paying a claim if they knew that. A garrage is not just for security either, it's for hail damage protection also.

How?

Investigators dude....

seriously - whats the point in lying?

ok, you pay for insurance saying its "garaged" but whats the point, claim time, you lied, fatone, claim declined.

so you have paid for nothing.

simple - dont lie.

I wasn't saying lie I'm genuinely curious, has anyone actually ever heard of them doing periodic checks to see if the car in question is parked on the street. If it was stolen how would they know if it was on the street or not, its now gone so its your word against their word, come pay out time unless they had proof it wouldn't stand up in court and they would have to pay out. Does that mean if its parked out on the street while you are cleaning out your garage its not covered? Its just a general thing to gauge how likely it is to get pinched, I doubt its written in the contract that it must under all circumstances be stored in the garage every single night or your insurance is void.

One contract i read, but didnt end up agreeing to said the car must be parked in the garage EVERY night unless it was more than 200m from the registered address i.e. you could go out or to a mates place all night, just not leave it behind your own house.

Guys anyone know who i can go with when i semi regularly park my line at train stations and friends houses when i go to work? Only insurance companies that seem to be willing to insure me are Just Cars and Young and Cool. $1800 just cars but $2.8k excesses.... young and cool 2.2k premium and 500-1k excess...

Ryno and Vigil would insure me for around $1400 premium and $500 excess if i didnt park it in public during the day. :bunny: I mean im damn carefull about where i do park it so it has maximum safety and doesnt draw attention. dammit. Anyone??

Mate you are always gunna struggle with insurance especially if you park your line in a public carpark or on the street. These cars are considered a high risk car for both theft and accidents; therefore this is reflected in both the premiums and excesses. I doubt anyone else will touch you to be honest :)

Looks like i will have to go with Young and Cool, 2.2k premium, about $400 more than justcars are quoting me to renew my policy, but much lower excess should something bad happen. Bugger.

Does anyone know much about young and cool? They have a good rep?

Woohoo!.. Just did some shopping around for my CTP Greenslip previously was $550-$600 for the renewal with NRMA.

This year at the age of 25 :)

Just got it in the mail after getting a quote over the phone on the weekend

AAMI Premium $251.23

GST: $25.12

MCIS Levies $82.65

TOTAL: $359

ah sweet,

Im 25 now, so thats a great thing to look forward - a cheap greenslip!!!

Xizor - unfort if thats the main use forthe car - justcars or young and cool will be the only two options.

    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
    • One way of putting the fuel surge idea to rest, is that even when in neutral/clutch in or free revving it still has the same issue, it can’t even get to limiter (7800) so to me that says it can’t be g force, I’m not trying to argue I just want to find the f&$king issue 😡
