There is another Company that insures grey imports at very competitive rates. But only if you or one of your parents is a pharmacist or medico.

"Guild Insurance" formerly Pharmacy Guild Insurance.

They simply regard people in these fields as being lower risk - and thus, one's Postcode doesn't matter.

Thanks Terry, they said they wont insure a grey import! Maybe I didnt speak to the right person...

RACV will, my gtr is insured with them.

Hey, I take back what I said about RACV being cheaper... well they are $140 cheaper, but value the car at $7,500! Ten grand less that Just Car. If I want to increase the value ("agreed", and its the highest they go) to $12,500, they ask for a $400 increase in premium.

I cant win here. :P

Cheaper...well not for me...Just cars agreed value on my skyline $13000 Racv's max $8800.

Just cars agreed on my silvia LOTS...lol Racv's max $5000.

Just cars montly on skyline $71.42 Racvs $100+ :D

Just cars monthly on silvia $51.39 Racvs $75 :D

It appears the only winners with RACV are the younger contingent who have not had insurance(or accident) before and are automatically given Rating 1.

No savings can be had here....Just cars I'm stuck with you...just give me choice of repairer and I might be happy about it....grrr :action-smiley-069:

no shit Danielle. Trust me if I could jump ship from just car I would- they charge me close to 3k a yr and force me to go to shit repairers when the accident isn't even ur fault. And I pay 3k a yr why, exactly?

Shannons won't insure me due to previous driving history...3 years ago

And racv quoted me over 12k per yr for premium.

For what its worth, I just got quoted $1750 for my R34 for Just Cars.. (online)

I have no accident history and I'm 30.. not really sure how you got quoted $71 a month, lol. I think I'll be giving them a phone call..

Depends a lot on the area you live in.

I have a $20K car, an $18K car and a $15K car (apparently...:blink:) all insured comprehensively with Shannons for $220 per month. I'm 26, no claim history or fines but I live in what they consider a dodgy area. That includes my 10% CAMS license discount.

I'm 27,2 under 10km/h fines, and high risk suburb.

Shannons is 1700/yr, 45k agreed for the 33. Their initial quote was 2700/35k. which i was not happy bout.

few calls later and down it went, which was good, but it stinks i got 1k off just because i know someone.

Just Cars were worse. it was around 1900 with 30k no room to move value

The car has 25-30k just in mods, can be proven etc.... fken idiots they are.

It's a pity LSV don't do imports anymore.

My GTSR was $1200/30k agreed.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
