May have to write a nice letter to Office of Fair Trading as a $660 increase is hideous!

Do it, online quote listed as 1562.00 so guess what.... They can stick that up their a$$.

Will call tomorrow to confirm, but lumleys sounds like the go!

OP is from Melbourne, and i dont think NRMA insure VIC.

My friend has his 34 GTR insured for 50k with just cars. 1yr ago $1500pa, this year they tried to raise to $1900pa, but he got them to agree to $1600 p/a . I was so shocked when they quoted $2k p/a for $13000 agreed value on my stagea.

Hey all, got a bit of info off just cars... Basically Due to weather issues around aus over the last year re- insurance has gone up ( insurance providers for insurance companies) looks around 35- 50 percent.

Just cars, aami all owned by suncorp which took a big hit in the floods etc

Gonna get quotes of lumley spec vehicles anyone else gone with them?

Currently I have Shannon's at $1550 for agreed value $28k, hasn't changed in years.

Lumleys price was for $18k value which is about right, might have to switch as its a massive saving

What are they like with listing modifications?

Only mod is sway bars, $28k agreed value was a quote 4 years ago that never changed just kept sending out renewal, its a tough decision, do I save money now or make some if it's written off. .

will probably save money now. . still undecided. .

WTF, is this for real, this old thread . What type of insurance cover would that have been for, or is that mate's rates.

The best Lumley's could do for me was this, Feb 2017

Autech 350s 6 sp

Original quote $ 2, 786. 00,

Amended quote, $ 2, 349. 20 (after a firm get the flying fu#k away from me). There was no third offer. Lol !!

Comprehensive cover,

Value $20,000, (I wanted replacement or $ 30,000 + )

$1000 excess,

No salvage rights.

That would mean in affect that if I had this cover at the quote I was given by Lumley's, first off I'd be feeling pretty riptoff n broke,

Secondly after just 5 YEARS they would have charged well over the odds in my view and well over half the purchase price of my staggie in the first place. Doesn't seem quite right to me. The ex recons I'm a tight arse,

Rego, green slip and insurance due in six weeks can anyone point me in a better direction than this over blown rip.

NRMA are about $900'ish recently, Shannons similar amount, but thats rating 1, over 40 north shore.

Cheers paramour, I think we both noticed the nth shore part of that picture. I live in merrylands (car is garaged) which has been a very high crime area in the past, ( mostly bikie related, ie ice dealing and shootings ) ,so perhaps that would account for Lumley's outrageous quote. Yeah right!!! So we will try some of the others here in the next few days , see if the merrylands factor comes into play with them. Cheers mate ,

    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
