Just curious to hear who everyone uses?

I want to change to an agreed value on my car insurance so I'm going to go and get some quotes. Currently with Shannons and may stay there but I haven't looked in a while so want to see what's available.

I called Shannons for some info the other day and the guy on the phone really shitted me off. Couldn't even give me a proper quote on how much it'd cost to up my insurance too busy trying to give his un asked for opinion that if my car isn't in the top percentage of GTRs quality wise in Australia they won't raise it. Hmm if you read this buddy, kindly shove your opinion up your ass :D

I'm with Shannons. I'm pretty happy with it. One of the SAU member in WA works for Shannons, I can't remember his user name, nor whether he still works there, it's been a while. I called him up and got a comprehensive insurance instantly with a phone call, and no vehicle check.

Just Cars premium is usually the highest.

Young and Cool was the cheapest requires your car to have alarm with non-colour coded wiring... you are not covered for theft. Toyota MR2 factory alarm had colour coded wiring, hence I couldn't insure with them. They also give you 10% discount if you do a Murcott defensive drive training.

GTR is insured with Shannons. Corolla is insured with Toyota. Rav4 is insured with GIO, packaged with home & content insurance... more paperwork!

With Shannons you have to go see them in person. That's what I did with my car, and I got the agreed value that I wanted.

Kat, I actually had them first look at mine at the Wheels event, all I did was wander over to the Shannons sponsor tent and started talking to one of the guys there, he just said "take me to it and I'll look at it now",and that's how I got it, so maybe you could try that?

That way they get to look at the car when it's shiny clean too :banana:

try LSV (Lumley Special Vehicles) 133578

or Torque

I am with LSV, agreed value, cheapest I could find, great customer service.

My current policy is with LSV but they have doubled my excess to $1k (must be the market, ive made no claims) and i found out their agreed value means nothing just maximum amount they will pay, its just a reference to what clause where hey will assess the value and then pay what they want!

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok so i will NEED to have this sensor anyway even with Nistune (or standalone ECU) https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-boost-pressure-sensor-evap-control-system-fits-nissan-r34-skyline-c34-nm35-stagea-pnt30-x-trail-rb25det-vq25det-sr20vet?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqfxX48bW9bEwH62orcNhtBfp7ekAL0C9Ca89ySFGUiBzXfXeze Is this the correct one? And this is only thing i need? No other "things" connected to the sensor or something? I do have the wiring.
