Anyone can cancel a policy at anytime regardless if you make monthly installments or paid in full and you should be credited For days in the month unused then start a new policy with NRMA

Thats what i thought also.

Either way i was in the green because i was still within the cooling off period with Just Car, my first payment was also not processed yet, so no refund needed.

Okay soooooooo. I misunderstood it as needing another vehicle insured with NRMA. They just wanted to make sure i have access to another vehicle for everyday use, which i do. I am 24 just if anyone is curious.

So final outcome was:

Agreed Value - 50k

Excess - $500

Premium - $840

Im honestly surprised how much cheaper it is. I was about to pay $2900 Premium and $1800 Excess. :/:/:/

Thanks for the help guys :)

Np. Congratulations!

Ok, so I have a 2001 R34 Vspec-II.

I WAS insured with Lumley Special Vehicle.

Agreed Value: $65,000

Premium: $1,100

Excess: $1,000

Just got a quote with NRMA Vintage and Classic.

Agreed Value: $75,000

Premium: $1,080

Excess: $1,000

OR

Premium: $1,200

Excess: $300

And I still haven't listed my mods for NRMA policy. Maybe I could bring it up to $80,000 agreed value?

Also, I will try to bring up the value with Lumley and see how much premium it'll get

Looks like I will make the switch though.

p.s. I was also surprised that NRMA VVC didn't ask what model my GTR was. So being a non-spec, vpsec, vpsec-II, nur, etc wouldn't matter to them?

I think it depends on who you get on the phone and how much they know about these cars.

I wasn't asked about vspec/II/nur, but i did mention it and she made the according selection from the list. Not even sure if anything other than standard/vspec exists for them as she went through the list for me and did not mention vspecII or nur.

Ok, so I have decided to make the switch from LSV to NRMA VVC

Instead of the first quote of $75,000 agreed value and $1,080 Premium,

after listing all my mods, I have brought it up to $80,000 agreed value.

$1,130 Premium and $1,000 Excess.

Slightly cheaper than LSV but insured for alot more :smile:

is your mods listed on your insurance certificate?

Im also with NRMA VC, but at the time, we agreed on higher insured value (due to mods) but I didn't provide them a list, rep said I could update online but I don't see any such options

I don't think theres an online option for that.

I've sent them the mod list via Email. They will then save the whole list under your profile/policy in their own system. (Call up to let them know/confirm the mod list is saved.)

R33 V-Spec Series 3

NRMA - 45k value @ 1050pa (Unlimited Mods)

Shannons - 30k Value @ $2250pa (Shannons price kept increasing with modification list)

As I have other policies with NRMA there quote came down a bit more

Very surprising... Hard to keep under the km per year to qualify for the vintage policy @ $700

Also from my daily drivers policies NRMA claims are quick & somewhat hassle free (for an insurance company...)

$1050 is pretty good imo.

I think the nrma vintage has now erased the km per year restrictions? It is now something like 10 times usage per month instead.

Yes they changed the 9000klm to 10 trips a month a while ago.

A bit silly and harder to keep track of if you ask me.

So you could do 10 return trips Sydney to Melbourne for example, about 17000klm in a month OR a year and it is a lot more than the original 9000klm , got me beat ?

A lot of blokes on here seem to get their jollies off on the track and are not insured while on the track. I would think that most of them are better drivers than the norm on the road, well maybe, lol

How do they know you only did 10 trips??? Seems like an open ended thing to me.

I could do one trip to Adelaide and clock up 5,000km, or you could do 20 trips to the shops and clock up 500km.

    • 12+ months passed so they have no obligation to do a warranty claim. It leaked from the rear circuit. Front circuit was fine, but I tried many times to bench-bleed and in-car bleed (wasted 1L of Penrite racing brake fluid) to no avail. Threw my old BM50 or whatever the standard R32 GT-R BMC is, brakes went back to normal. So from my very limited anecdotal experience, I cannot recommend HFM, even though a lot of their products looks good. Just my experience (I have a genuine Nissan BM57 in a box waiting to be installed now).
    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
