Hi fellow Stag owners,

My full comp policy is soon up for renewal. Shopping around for better options as you do these days.

Just wanted opinions, feedback and recommendations from fellow Stag owners regarding the insurers you guys are using.

Just Cars $2096 p/a

RACV $1080 p/a

Just cars penalises me for a drink driving issue 2 1/2 years ago, racv dont.

Just cars.... Best price for me... Insured in my name but wife drives.

Well gents this is why I initially created this thread.

I am currently with Just Cars and have been with all my vehicles for the last 5 years or more. It is time to part ways with them now....

Last 12months premium was $1309, the renewal notice arrived and now they have increased is to $1969. This is absurd.

In addition without notice they knocked down the agreed value by over $3k.

They can't seem to correctly justify the $660+ increase.

Just Car did the same thing with me, I laughed so hard when it came in the mail...

I'm now with SGIC, they gave me a better agreed value and cheaper premium, they were also nicer to deal with on the phone.

Just Car called back after my insurance with them expired and I almost laughed in there face and told them to stick it.

Its how insurance companies work. They jack up the premiums etc every year, you call them and they drop it back down. For every person who calls and negotiates it back town, 10 will just pay it.

I disputed the situation with Just Car and they could not correctly justify the $660 increase and would not budge. So we parted ways.

I did my shopping around and now am with Lumley Special Vehicles for both vehicles.

Thanks gents for all your input.

Fingers crossed you are lucky. See how you go.

Good idea is to do a new online quote for your car with Just Cars, see what a fresh policy quote comes out to being even with the higher excess option. If it is significantly higher then expect your renewal notice to only be $50-100 less to that of online quote; my renewal was $1969 from $1309. An online quote for identical cover come in at $2046. No Bull!

      Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.

      34 de+t conversion using s2 stagea automatic transmission, engine harness and ecu

      By albyz34gt · Posted

      Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?

      My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
