Im sure the topic has been hashed over several times......

Just got my policy renewal today and nearly fell over cause in the 2 yrs ive had my car the policy has gone up over $400 bucks! And ive never claimed or had any driving offences what so ever!

Im insured with Lumley Special Vehicles.

2008 policy was $1000

2009 policy was $1250 ish

today $1440

Can any of you other 34 drivers or anyone in general tell me who you insure with and approx how much, cause this is getting out of hand the policy going up by a couple of hundred every year!

Thanks Donna

Seriously change your insurer. I am with Shannons on an agreed value deal for 6/700 a year (cant recall excactly without looking at the policy)

You are getting right royally rogered atm.

Even though Suncorp owns Just Car and Shannons have you tried them for a quote too? R33 GTST with Just Car was $1400 at 25 with perfect history in Toowoomba. Suncorp quoted $690 at the time iirc

I find that hard to believe. I've rung Shannon and Suncorp just to check recently and Shannon doesnt insure a daily car and Suncorp was like 2k. I'm sticking with Just Car for now at around 900 premium and 1.5k excess.

PS: Daily Car = one and only car regardless of how many times you drive a week. The other condition to fulfil if you have 2 cars is you can only drive the insured car for 2 or 3times a week if I remembered correctly.

I believe AAMI owns just cars, not suncorp. But they won't insure anything modified/import, they'll just direct you to just cars.

Just cars however will insure anything, but they will charge more than AAMI. It was about half as much to insure my shitbox XF with AAMI than it was with just cars

    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
    • Thanks guys - I have been overseas for a hectic many weeks , so haven't had time to chase any of these up.  Some of the suggestions are for 4.1 ratio, which I already have, and a 3.5 at Lonsdale, which is also too tall.  Really looking for 3.9 or even a 3.7 LSD, either with M12 bolts. Will look some more.  
    • Yeah sounds like the swirl pot isn't being fed from the return line, would be made even worse by the high flow pump. 
    • This is the R32 one and the inside of the tank should look like this. which has an internal swirl pot, that the return line must empty into. (Interestingly, because the GTR tank is plastic it misses out on the swirl pot.) That is a potential cause for an aftermarket pump hanger to mess things up. Maybe the return is cut short and squirting over the side.
