Just got my premium from just car and it has gone up 270 in one year, agreed value went down 1100 also.

Called them up and they changed premium still 160 above last year and agreed back to what was before.

Im 28 on rating 1 with no accidents or claims.

Apparently its because its a popular car and many claims have been made

Who are you thru and what are your premiums?

Looking at calling shannons to see what they say

Shannons wont insure unless there kept in a locked garage at night most of the time.

I cant complain with Just Cars, I got my renewal 2 months ago, nothing at all changed. Rating One, Full Comp, Agreed Value of $34,500. Suspension & Exhaust... And I only pay $1170. I am now 22. I used to pay half of that for my first car (S13, when i was 17) for 3rd party only!!!!

Im with Shannons, I found them cheaper then Justcars and they insured me for full value unlike Justcars.

Im 20, and they have claseed me as a rating 1, im only paying 980. but have huge excess for my age, which was the same with Justcars.

Brad i'm paying $1100 premium and like $400 excess with all mods like PFC, Cooler, wheels, kit! Thats with Shannons and i could pay by the month as soon as i started(none of this 1st year crap) and choice of repairer! The only catch is it "supposidly" cant do more than 5k kms a year! But meh i don't do that anyways!

EDIT: BTW my excess was like $700-900 before i turned 25, now 26!

Shannons FTW with my situation! If i remember Just Cars quoted me like $900 Premium and like $1600 excess, So naturally i told them where to stick it!

Another vote for shannons here. I pay ~$990 per year, 26 rating 1 for life, agreed value of $16k, and $300(??) basic excess.

Thats on an R33 GTSt Ser 1 with mods of susp, exhaust, kit, wheels, stereo, momo wheel. And any future mods they are fine with.

Best quote I could get.

Shannon's is pointless if your cars a daily driven car, and if you do 'x' amount of kays don't lock it up in a garage etc. I don't understand you guys that pay all this money for full comp but don't tell them all your mods, u do realise that if u have an accident and they see that you've got stuff which u haven't told them about then they won't cover u!

I have to pay this comp insurance til i finish paying out the loan. Once thats gone ill hopefully have a daily driver and then i can get this 'limited km, locked up' insurance at a cheaper price.

Another co. is Vigil insurance (if you can ever get through). For me, their price was similar to Shannons, but without limited kms. May be an option as a daily driver? I just chose not to go with them as I had a hard time getting a hold of them to actually get a quote, so was worried if I ever had to make a claim

Im with just cars, rating 2 now. $2,400 a year agreed value of $28,500. However, might reconsider full comp... Some advice guys, read your fine print on your insurance policy. Road Worthy means 'RTA' approved (or whatever your state road authority is). This can be debated.. if you dont have engineering certificates (hence defectable mods e.g. 20" rims, exhaust) then they COULD reject ur claim if the mod was seen to be the cause or a cause for the accident.

I suggest you guys ask.. youll get this response im sure "check with your state road authority to make sure you are road worthy". I might be stressing to much over it but remember We live in a very specific world.

I am with Shannons, and the quality of cover they provide is excellent.

The excess is reasonable (unlike others) an d they will accept the mods I have (and I told them of all mods)

The premium isnt cheap but compares well with other companies

  • 3 months later...

some good info ^^^

I just re-insured the GTR

Went for Shannons

Justcars was a lil cheaper, but their excess is 3x more

Famous didn't answer the phone, online quotes had errors

$700 full comp. age 33 rating 1

about $1000 excess and agreed value of $21,700

i was with just cars but didnt want to pay 900bux full comp and wasnt happy with $16000 agreed value

im with westfarmers insurence.

i pay $770 full comp. age 19 with rating 1 :(

$900 excess if my fault $600 if its not and insured for $14,000

they dont give a shit whats done to the car and very rarely would they put the cost of full comp up with a new modd.

downside, you must insure EVERYTHING with them but thats not really that bad ;)

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
