Hmm so my insurance has just came up for renewal ($500 lower than last year) and i've noticed that the agree value on the car is only $9000, i dont remember agreeing to $9000.. $9000 would buy a R32 Auto Non turbo with bad paint and mine is the opposite, anyway i've tried ringing and can't get through, but if i press the whole first owner out of japan good condition great engine thing will the bump it up? It's worth around 11.5 i reckon

you will find this is normal these days for Just cars they are good at doing this.. I had the same problem with my car dropped $1500 within 3 days with a new paint job...

Call shannons they are agreed value may cost a bit more to have a higher value but worth it if something goes wrong. :O

Well last year it was worth $9k too i think i just originally didnt notice/care they put it so low >.<

Um i don't think shannons is an option for me, i'm only 20 and i rang them when i was 18 and they told me they couldnt insure a P-Plater turbo car, is that right?

I'll ring them and hopefully they don't bump the premium up too much

Just Cars suck

they insured my N15 SSS for an agreed value of $7400

AAMI insured it for an agreed value of $14K

in short JCI sucks

Thats funny because Just Car is underwritten by AAMI. You think that they would be simillar

you could pick up a 5spd turbo R32 GTS-t for $9K.

My guess is thats the value Just Cars considers to be the market value. A true agreed value should only be valid for the term of the insurance contract, which is usually 12mths. After that, its a new agreement. if your not happy with $9K, call them and tell them that and see what else they offer.

something might be up, my car is insured for abit more than 11 as when i said i installed my fmic they bumped up how much its worth. Other than my fmic my car is listed as stock though.. not even a sound system :S

Agreed value means they insure it for what you tell them, and pay the premium to match. Of course, they have to agree, but that shouldn't be a problem if you are reasonable. There is a clear distinction between MARKET and AGREED value.

I played around with their calculator. Anything less than 10k has the same rate as 10k (9, 9.5), so I'd push the agreed value up to that (eg - same premium).

Once you state a number past 10k, they pass the risk onto your premium (Damn Actuaries)

use the online quote tool to check this youself.

    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
