Cheers

Yep im with Shannons to...got a good deal $1121 with agreed value of $20k, listed as modified and im only 21

hmm hopefully I can do around that. did they ask about speeding fines????

just wanted an up to date check on people in WA really. being 20, and not having the best driving record doesnt help. got quoted $2332 a year from JUST CAR, with around a 2100 excess. almost shat myself.

just tell em that you look after the car, that you are an enthusist and that it has an alarm and ALWAYS garaged

Just cars will rip you off bigtime (although they will isnure anyone at a price)

jdfnq think insurance will vary between a coupe and a wagon??

I'm 31, pay $900 a year for mods, never garaged with a speeding fine in the last year lol

Area also makes insuranve variable so...

hmmm hopefully they are nice to me. Ive only had three fines. unfortunately they were big ones and all happened in the last 6 months. so I have 1 point left. :laugh::yes:

i think im in trouble

Just Car Insurance aren't that bad. Only downside is you dont get to choose your repairer (they get 2 quotes and go with the "most competitive"(?) quote) -but any repairs do come with a guarantee (i know its a long time but not sure how many years from memory).

I pay ~$900 a year through just car insurance. excess is a killer at something like $1400 but fortunately I haven't had to use that yet (touch wood). I'm rating 1 and I'm 25. (was same price when i was 24).

Shannons dont insure under 25's so I haven't yet gotten a quote from them. Might try soon since they seem to be a good insurer. My only concern with shannons is that they may be too picky with where the car is garaged (or not) and what mods it has. I've found JCI are very easy to deal with and dont ask 5 million questions before insuring your car. I dont want my insurance company dictating where and when I drive my car... :)

I'm with Shannons, soon to do house and contents with them.

Seeing as I'm the 66yo, with all my points intact, I get it pretty cheap.

An important factor is whether the car is securely garraged and also your postcode. 4272 is a secure area.

I told em the mods the car had when i got it, but i havent told em the mods ive done to the car since owning it,

there is no reason why i havent told except for the fact that im lazy and cant be bothered calling them i will do it eventually lol.

But remember i havent had any accidents nor have i lost my license and ive never been done for speeding

ACV30 Camry Sportivo with a 1MZFE V6 in front of a 5 speed manual.

Makes 147kw at the fly wheel, tops out at ~5500rpm in fifth at ~220-230kph

Not sure on the 0-100 but definatly will pull a 1/4 mile time around the high 14's, maybe low 15's, which is pretty quick for a Camry IMO.

With the manual box has some hardcore traction issues in the wet, with new tyres it frys 1st and 2nd, spins 1/2 of third too. In the dry, will comfortably loose traction at 60kph after a clutch popping.

Only gripe I have with the car, has really strong oversteer, yes, oversteer, tendancies on high speed sweepers and also under braking the rear comes out a bit. Understeer on hill climbs is also non existant, apart from corner exists in the wet when the wheels spin and the car just floats, but thats controllable.

Not too bad on the fuel, ~9's on the highway and I do around 15's city, but I drive with lots of RPM.. :P

Definatly reccomend a V6 manual Spotivo to anyone that is looking for a very decent performning, comfortable, NORMAL family car.

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
