I had some really pissy experiences with CTP.

I get a good deal on my shopping trolley (Magna) because it's comprehensively insured with AAMI, I think the slip is like $330???

They shafted me with the Skyline because they wanted to know insurance and all the other jack.

A few things will affect your CTP, age (over 25?), postcode of residence and age of vehicle (over 1996 seems to get the shaft).

Some places will shaft you just because you're not comprehensively insured with them.

Tony my cars a 1991 model but is registered as a 1998 model (I really should fix that one day)

I asked Allianz if the age of the car made a difference to my CTP amount and was advised that it wouldn't. It was my age that played the biggest factor

You could move to Vic where you dont have a choice of CTP insurer. It just says on your rego pay this much and if you think its too much then bad luck! But it sounds to me that competition isnt helping ur prices, in Vic CTP and rego together are between $400 and $550 per year, then you go and buy other insurance on top of that to protect ur car/other peoples cars.

that's cheap....

I pay:

$575 CTP

$46 Rego Fee

$196 Vehicle Tax

$400 Custom Plates Fee

Total = $1217

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
