wondering alex.. let's say a hyperthetical that your in an accident.. and the other guys at fault.. he's wrote your car off but he's not insured at all..

if you was on full comp insurance.. they'll fix/replace your car at a "not at fault" claim, costing no excess at all and the insurance company will chase him down for the money. where as if you had to chase him it could be ages before you get money and that's if you don't get the run around (had this happen to my parents, and cops eventually said not worth chasing anymore)..

Insurance has it's perks, but also it's downside..

alex is a wog

if the other guy wrote alex's car off but didn't have insurance, and couldn't pay it, alex would call some potato eating cousins of his who would pay our uninsured friend a visit and leave with his kidneys..

I guess that solves it then, he doesnt need insurence because he has potato eating cousins :)

People here are taking my words out of context, im not saying don't get any insurance im saying just get third party, even with third party if your not at fault the insurer will chase down the case for u.

correct me if im wrong but i was under the impression 3rd party only covers you when you damage someone elses car, if you're at fault

......

maybe read it slower? :D

I read it, if the fag cant pay ill track his ass down and start taking his furniture and shit, should have thought about that before being gay wod.

2 notes as a professional in the industry...

1. Excess (fee) is not a fee it is paid as your contribution for a claim and is only required when you claim, never before.

2. Until you get 25 you will get buttsecked on premiums, silly car to get at 17 IMHO considering NRMA offerred me at 25 $2400 for my 33

Comp is something you definitely want to have, it's like health insurance really, I forked out ridiculous amounts of money all year long, but when it came time for surgery, it saved my wallet good and proper. It all comes down to whether you want to gamble. If you're feeling lucky, punk, then just get 3rd party. There's no way any of us can say if or when you'll be in an accident, you could be in a nasty one but it might not be your fault. If that is the case, and you don't have it, and THEY don't have it, you are left with nothing. The only thing you will be covered for is their hospital bills. So it's really just another one of those shitty personal choices.

In reply to your actual question though... No, you will not find cheaper than Just Car (or Shannons in some cases). Andy paid just under $3K when he first got insurance on our old R33 gtst, then he wrote it off 22 hours later. We got the agreed value back, and ended up making $1500 out of the whole ordeal. Second time around he paid the same amount on the same car, then every year since then it's gone down. Also, once you've been with them for a year or so, you are then eligible to pay by the month, which is great, no more big lump sum payouts every year! We are currently paying $102 a month for the GTR for both him and me insured, with an excess of $1900, so your costs will decrease with age and good driving history.

Good luck!

Not true, most TPPDO policies (Third Party Property Damage) also cover up to $5000 worth of damage caused by an uninsured third party.... so you can be partially protected... but if they have insurance and are jerkoffs you are screwed, don't be an idiot, get comp.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
