Just wondering what peoples experiences are?

Just got rear ended by a tosser in a vy, do they let you choose your repairer, if so does anyone know someone around the frankston area who will fix some peeling clear for cash there way, pm me if you do.

Sorry to hear bout the accident man. Must be cut. As far as Just Car goes i think they only let you use your choice of repairer if the quote u get is cheaper than they get from their choice of repairers

Interesting. When I got hit I had it towed to a repairer I chose, they submitted a quote to Just Cars, the inspector came out and okayed it. I didn't need to take it anywhere else.

This was in '05 though.

I think they let you choose, provided their preference is too far away.

Other than that, they're pretty good - i got wiped out by a guy with no insurance, and when he refused to sign anything official saying he was uninsured, they were cool about it. I think they called him and got (tricked) him into admitting he was uninsured. But the bottom line is, they looked after me, and that jerk possibly has no house now.

Any else have to pay the excess up front, they didnt mention it when i called them today.

They said i have to get 2 quotes and atleast 1 of them has to be from there approved repairer, the two they gave me were seaford panels and frankston accident repair centre, i have heard good things about seaford panels any body had any work done at the other?

if you got full comp, and someone went up your arse, wont they be chasing him up for the money for you?

You only pay an excess when you're at fault, or when you can't identify the party at fault...

sweet, she said that it would be listed as "not at fault" so its all good then.

^^^ as per dezz's post, but companies like AAMI make sure you get a letter of the 3rd party advising in writing that they do not have insurance at the time.

Once done your car gets fixed, your rating won't be touched, but you have the joy of telling each new potential insurer about your "not at fault accident"

i was hit when i had my 33 last year and was insured with just cars. as llama_au my car was sent directly to my panel shop. the submitted a quote and the car was fixed a week after the incident. so was very happy.

Ok, from my experiences only a few months ago..

The insurance company will ask for a quote from a set of repairers, most insurance company's used VACC Approved Repairers so if the person who you plan on doing the work is approved then they can just send there quote to the insurance company and its easy done.

For my circumstance where i wanted to take it elsewhere that wasnt approved to the insurance company i told them i would prefer to get it fixed at my own repairer so they paid me out into my bank account then i took the car to DT Panels :P

been insured with just car for 6 yrs now and had good experience in accident situations but not when my 34 got stolen, gave me bit of hell for 6 weeks b4 they paid out. had 2 cars written off by them b4 hand, was a 33 and an 80 model scorpion.

but other than that, good experience

we get a quote from a repairer of our choice and one from your own if you want to...

we dont base the decision on the cheapest repairer

as someone said above sometimes if your repairer is closer and easier to get to we'll just send out an assessor to check your car and book it in ur repairer...but it all depends on the situation no home jobs :D

and we do deal with VACC repairers

    • Order for the 2025 model R35 GT-R were accepted from 3rd March and 26th August the last order rolled off the production line at the Tochigi plant. Concerning the R35 GT-R replacement, current Nissan CEO Ivan Espinosa said "Nothing has been decided about the GT-R at this time, but we are well aware that everyone is waiting. The GT-R will evolve and reappear in the future. Please be patient until that day comes." Nissan has a lot of issues with management and finances so take Espinosa's words with a big grain of salt. From what discussions I've had and read about here in Japan, not a lot of people are confident about Nissan's future, let alone the next GT-R. 
    • Thanks. We getting some parts along too so he will be solving the speed issue like next week so i will let you know what he came up with.   
    • 21 is explicitly the coils detected as the issue. Is it guaranteed the actual issue? No. Just the ECU thinks it is. When you say rattling, describe it better, get an audio clip as best you can if possible.
    • Yea got me coppers. Bad news is I just put them in and the car still has the light and shakes. I also noticed I hear like rattling coming from the exhaust piping right under me. Does 21 also have a possibility of being O2 sensors?   So, coil packs are good, the harness is good, the MAF is working, and obviously the spark plugs just replaced and working.
    • Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
