They covered fibre glass on mine, sometimes you may need to get the panel shop to make up false dockets for you (most panel shops will as long as they get paid they don't care). Just car are quite expensive but are usually the only people that will cover anyone sub 23yrs old. As soon as someone gets over 23 you'd be nuts to not at least shop around.

Yes this is true you can get a quote 'altered' although when they send photo's of the damage to the insurer or they send out an assesor to inspect the car it does become very hard to get around it.

As soon as im 25 i will be changing to shannons.

Had a fiberglass bonnet come up un my GTR and they would not cover a new bonnet they would only pay for the damage caused by it and i did have it on my policy..

Cheers

Sorry forgot to add R34 GTR 23years old my premium is $1200 rating one..

By the time i added

$400 standard excess

$1000 vehicle excess

$600 age excess

And had to buy a bonnet as it was not covered it was cheaper not to use the insurance anyways.

No faults found yet with Just Cars. H2P was quite expensive comparitively. A word of advice, with high excesses you may aswell write the car off.

Lot of cars as a percentage from Just Cars at the damaged auctions so one can only assume they arent too fussy and dont knock too many back . Personally , Iv had no issues though I havent had to claim yet

what if you mod along the way, can you let them know and add it to the policy ?

It's advisable to do that. You can ask them that firstly as a hypothetical question.

Then if they say "YES", at least the mods are covered. If you don't ask, the mods are not covered.

Cost? I upgraded the mods list on my car recently by $2200 and I only have to pay $12 extra per year in premium.

But that was with a different insurance company.

So long as you tell Just Car, Shannons, Famous or Guild Insurance about those mods + and so long as they aren't responsible for an 'at fault' crash, you are still covered.

Guild Insurance?

If you are part of a business, medical practice, dental practice, physiotherapy practice or pharmacy, they will cover Skylines.

And guess what?

Premium with Just Car used to be $2068 on maximum 'no claim bonus' for my R33 GT-R & insured for $27K with $600 excess.

Premium with Guild Insurance has dropped to $870 for 'agreed value' again, insured for $25K with $500 excess.

I just switched!!! ;)

this post got my attention - but i dont think i qualify with guild as i have no association with a business :down:

shannons insurance for me increased from 1600 to 3300 as im upgrading my gtr, what a joke!

Dude dont get me started justcarsucks

They took 2 months to fix my car and they didn't fix the turbo after the accident and tried to say that the turbo wasn't damaged in the accident I had to fight them for it and that rook a year and I got nowhere as I couldn't prove that te turbo was fine bedew the accident. R33 87000kms never boosted past stock

I hate them but can't find another insurer so im stick using them

Guild Insurance?

This has got my attention & got me thinking.

Since my mum is a Doctor & is part of some medical organization would it work if I changed my car's ownership to her name & then got insurance with Guild insurance & list me as the primary driver?

Currently paying ~$1100 (thats with AD-Adjust) for my R33 (rating 3 with perfect driving record).

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
