yeah chad, i already have the multi vehicle discount (ends up being 3 cars including the trailer :)). Helps for another 10% with the cams licence. They reckon the value of my skyline could easily triple once its done

This has been my only "attempt" at a claim with Just Car. Had a guy back into me, got his number and rego (and yes, i know i should have got more from him). Filed a police report, gave JC the necessary time to obtain the report. When they ran the rego, it had no named driver, yeah, figure that one out? I was under the assumption that all registered cars have a named owner. I gave them his number, a number i had been dialling constantly for days without success, they apparently spoke to him, and he denied all knowledge of this taking place. They then said there is nothing they can do, and offered to fix my front bar, all id have to do is pay my $2500 excess. Yeah right.

do you have your rating 1 protected (if your a rating 1)? as you would no only have to pay the excess but your premiums would go from 65% - 45% NCB rating

cars don't have registered drivers just registered owners, no proof as to who was driving the vehicle

Give Shannons a call mate. You can get cover called "laid up" i think they call it, which is cover for cars that are not being driven.

just got off the phone to insurance companys:

Shannons: wont cover my car because its not registerd, and i have no licence and im 19 and they dont like insuring younger people ive heard. they also asked if i was part of any car clubs, had my cams licence or was part of any car show places such as autosalon, this might help people who have all of that lol.

Just Cars: wont cover my car on the track because it is too risky they said, and the car is not registered so my insurance atm dosent even cover me which sucks

has any1 else got any ideas about insurance? my car only gets driven onto the trailer, then on back of trailer to mallala. i pay 600 a year for insurance as it is and on top of that rego for a car thats not even on roads. cheers guys

i think ya might hav had some chance if ya had a cams licence and were part of a cams affiliated club. other than that you've not got a lot of options aside from the current situation you're in

yeah might just have to re-register it and then insure it, might put it in a full licence drivers name whos over 25 too keep insurance down concidering i dont drive it, they will be

Have been with LSV for 5 years now, they were called something else b/4, have had no traffic infringments in that time, am over 40 y/o and no claims. Last year my premium was $705.43/ $750 excess/ $18,000 cover. This year my premium will be $847.00/ $1000 excess / $16,000 cover. I reckon that sucks considering I've been the model customer from their point of view, yet I'm being penalised. $847.00 might not be so bad compared with some premiums quoted on this thread, but considering my history, age etc, I would have thought a CPI increase rather than a 20% hike would have been adequate. Will try Shannons for a quote just to see how they rate in comparison.

That sounds like your paying way too much....specially with a record like that....please do let us know what shannons quote you mate

Got round to putting insurance on my car today. Going through Shannons, spoke to them at the Old School N' New Age Car Show.

Age:22-23

Driving/Claim History: Clean

Car: 1997 R33 GTST

Mods: FMIC

The car is insured for $16,000, and i am paying $119 per month for Full Comp.

What type of mods can i put on my policy? Turbo, ECU, Injectors, etc etc? Cos i am going to be putting some on shortly.

You should contact shannons about that particular issue Abe

its my understanding that you should never keep your insurer in the dark about modifications.

That is also very true damien.....as if they dont know and your in a crash then they cannot pay up for your brand new turbo....

I rang Shannon's again today to add some mods to my car that i hadn't listed, my 17" rims, bilstein shocks and GTR seats...it raised my premium another $70. So i shall be paying about $1490, and apparently with turbo, ecu, and injectors, it will take it to about $1550. I am beginning to wonder if it is worth it.

Ask yourself that if your car gets stolen and/or written off.

It'll be a heartfelt yes on that occasion

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
