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!

      Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
