i'm with Shannons

they were cheaper by far, full comp for 1600 insured for 13500 was cheaper but i added 3k, they never asked about garage (i have one anyway). They also said the market value was 18500, does this sound right? 96 S2 R33 GTS-t

I've been with JC for my last 3 cars incl. my current R34 and when renewing my insurance they wanted to drop the agreed value $2k or so and I told them not good enough, so I got a call back and they were happy to leave it at the previous insured value ($22k iirc) because I've been with them for a while (and even though I made a big claim on a previous car) so I'm pretty happy with JC, they haven't screwed me over *yet*.

I rang them and told them if there going to drop the agreed value then i will go elsewhere, they said there was nothing they could do about it.

That sounds way too high, if my S1 has a market value of $12500 i cant see a S2 being $6000 more expensive.

The hunt continues...

I've just applied to Famous for a quote.

Can't say I like the sound of Just Cars low market values and mega excesses though... They're premium came out nicely at $1250 or so though.

Market value of my 1999 R34 GTT through LSV is $26k (down from $30k)

  • 3 months later...

hm just spoke to shannons and they wanted almost $1,000 MORE than JC ... and JC have just upped my premium a couple hundred to $1900 and lowered agreed value $2k at the same time (to 23k)

Looks like there's no one that can beat JC .. hopefully when I turn 30 next year maybe they take some pitty on this old fool and give me a better rate than this :)

im with shannons have been the last 3 yrs . i pay under a grand a yr series 1 r33 agreed value at 18 g and 500 bucks exess if it gets stolen . the joys of been a old fart lower premuins

i have never had to claim with them so i cant comment on that side of things i pay monthly im rapt with them so far ..

oh they are a bunch of 2 faced scammers, cynically feeding off their go-ggo image.

try a claim with them (up until about 12-18 months ago things were great). now days they have been taken over by suncorp, standards and attitudes in management have changed...and we are about to lodge our complaint with the industry ombudsman.

I'm sure Kel will be happy to elabourate though

    • So I actually had the cover off my car today, here is a (bad) pic of the setup. I have an oil cooler thermostat block, the temp sender is straight in there. The pressure sender has a short AN line to a T piece which is mounted (hopefully cable tied counts as mounted....) on the chassis. BTW every fitting you could ever imagine exists....just depends what they cost and how many you need. Raceworx AN adapters are here: https://raceworks.com.au/fittings/adapters/, I think you said you need BSPT to AN (https://raceworks.com.au/fittings/adapters/bsp/tapered/an-to-bspt-adapters/) and AN to NPT (https://raceworks.com.au/fittings/adapters/npt/) BTW, braided line is super simple to make. It looks intimidating, is not.
    • Perfect day for a pie, really needs a soft top in this weather though
    • Prime parking, she is a little girl...LOL
    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
