just car, however i havnt told them bout most my mods lol only the standard stuff like ,pod exhaust rims etc and it came down from about 1850 i think because i had my license for a year and had no claims

sam

hhahah...but if you have an accident without declaring mods they dont cover thats wat i thought?

Who you with Gazza750? My insurance last year when I first bought my car was ~$2800 and now im 19 and the renewal came in at ~$2100 with Just Car, so atleast its some relief although they bumped the excess up a couple hundred, farout. Postcode plays a big role in insurance premiums I think.

Also, with Just Car, its my understanding that you pay extra premium for the first 5 or so mods, then after that every extra mod doesnt affect your premium.

gees guys,

theres a shitload of thins that determine the premium - there is no point saying you are paying XXX amount because EVERYONE is a different risk

postcode/state/location, car, age, history, special benfits, determine a premium.

there is no relevence to what people are posting here.

If joe bloggs lives next door to you, has the same car, you are the same age, same driving history, same insurer, EXACT everything - then compare the premium, and if you're premium is cheaper - dont tell him!!!!

Gee's.

lock thread please mods :)

agreed wilth weevil.

everyone will be different. Gazza750, arent you in your 30s? Perhaps thats why you pay next to nothing for your insurance.

what makes it so hard to believe that an 18yo would be paying $2K+ on a high risk modified Skyline?

i have first hand knowledge of details of single vehicle accidents/claims that Just Cars havehad and after hearing some of the stories, we really only have ourselves to blame for a high premium and those who are a good driver etc etc have to wear the brunt of others stupidity also.

everyone will be different. Gazza750, arent you in your 30s? Perhaps thats why you pay next to nothing for your insurance.

according to his profile he is in his 40s, so that explains the low premium.

postcode plays a big part of insurance costs. someone in a big city is more likely to be in an accident that someone in a small town. also in the big city you have more chance of your car getting stolen. and of course some suburbs are worse than others.

well thats why i started this thread was because they want to charge me 110 bucks for putting in a pod

they charge you for the first couple then after that they dont.. i insured my car with just cars and i told em i had exhaust pod wheels system when i baugh it... then i modded the car.. added to the list fmic boost controller safc 2... they added i think $60-$100

Then i called em back and added my turbo power fc fuel pump inj (but i dont have em all yet) and they upped the value of my car another 1k and didn't charge more on my premium...

I'm not sure exactly how it works but you should hear it all from the horses mouth.. call em and ask em 100 questions thats what their there for..

R33 GTST

aftermarket turbo

pod

FMIC

boost controller

18" rims

3" turbo back exhaust

insurance - full comp from Famous $760 - although I did have to install an alarm

there are some advantages to being over 40 :kiss:

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
