$13,500 agreed

$550 excess

Choice of Repairer (!!!!!!)

$1716.19

I'm much happier with this than JCI who changed my policy this year...
$13,500 -> $12,200
$550 -> $625
$1274 -> $1506
No choice of repairer (which as I found out after a not at fault repairer a few weeks ago, is a very bad thing)

RACV wanted $2050 and a rim job for every mod that wouldn't be covered...

I dropped into Mick's place when the accident had happened, to ask him if it was worth him quoting on it... He said "Who are you with?", I said "JCI" and he laughed... "No chance in hell"

PENDING - Shannons Insurance St Leonards AUS - $1,716.19

*wince*

All I can say is, thank god for the CAMS Licence discount....

Finally free of Just Car Insurance :D

What does the CAMS net you discount wise? My Just Cars renewal turned up...$1000 full comp w/ a licence suspension and at fault accident claim in the past 5 years. Y'all be mad.

Think it was about 10%... so like $170 saving... The way I see it, it pays for CAMS Licence and SAU VIC membership each year ;)

Is anyone insured with Progressive Direct?

I've heard nothing but good things about them and I'm thinking of switching all my cars and my motorcycle over.

I've also heard that Lumley are great and Allianz is decent.

I've had a good experience with JCI (hail).

And a terrible experience with AAMI (not at fault claim), they were shocking, avoid like the plague.

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
