Shannons do my contents insurance.

Good thing about them is garage cover up to 10k I think, so wheels, tools and memorabilia etc. if they get stolen.

Don't you have to have it for your loan?

that's one of my requirements for our house loan. (house insurance not so much contents)

Got building insurance through body corporate but contents isn't covered as far as im aware.. real estate gurus can confirm?

Edit: yeah i want to go with someone that will cover my trailer behind gates too. 

When I was like 10 my parents got stooged my KLX125 got stolen (small dirt bike) AAMI said it's not covered under contents, argument was its basically a pocket bike that has no rego or anything and that they'd been with AAMI for 25 years etc.

My Just Car policy has somewhat automatically switched over to their underwriters AAMI. The TPF&T cover is exactly the same, but their premium is $260 instead of the $400 JC charged me...go figure? They seem to have a much higher excess ($1200) than JC did, so maybe that's why...

Wonder if the move was just to consolidate or to force customers into lower premium / higher excess options?

$260 a quarter? agreed value or market? I'm guessing agreed as market value on a R33 would be sheit these days 

I got 10k agreed on my road regoed dirt bike.. tempted to ride it to the station or cinemas one night when ready to sell, surely it'd be gone hah.

I don't like leaving it anywhere, no key and can start it up and ride off

third party sounds right for 260 a year, I was $131 on the S14.

you can adjust the excess back down to the original value and your premium will go back to around the original. 

 

really depends on what you want and where it parked.

A year...

It's third party fire and theft which is almost always market value. But up to 10k which is max for theft anyway. Wasn't difficult to argue Leesh's R33 was worth 10k when that got stolen and realistically it was probably worth 6-7.

Not doing comp insurance on a GTS-T...Shannons wanted $1200 a year for it lol

They offered me the same on our M35 stag, 260 with 1200 excess. I hope they offer me the same on the gtst. Birds, did you have any mods listed for yours?

Yes all my legal mods were listed with JC just for disclosure. Not listed on the AAMI replacement policy, but I haven't had a chance to amend it. There is a line on there about fitted options/accessories/modifications being included in the amount you're covered for, which is only 10k anyway, so it's probably less relevant to third party than comprehensive where you could claim extra for mods. Unless you're concerned about disclosure and being denied a TPF&T claim because of modifications not mentioned.

Yeah, I'm more concerned about having a claim denied due to unknown mods. Like you, I had only listed legal mods. Most of my stuff is concealed well and doesn't look too out of place, except for the roll cage lol. I may have to rethink that one.

Fk me, the dumb connections people draw while trying to be offended...they want the AFL to do something about him cause he was wearing a footy top at the same time? What's it got to do with football or other supporters? Will Nike ban him from their stores cause he wears their shoes lol

Roll cage isn't illegal though is it? just say you do track days with it and surely theyd be fine..

 

full cage is not legal, half cage is if your car has been modified to be a 2 seater, so you have to pull the rear seats/belts and get it checked at vicroads.

Not illegal if engineered

Pretty sure those rules have now changed, even a half cage needs to be signed off by an engineer and then car must be registered as 2 seater. Cars that are already regod as 2 seater on old rules are ok i believe. So, i either remove it or roll the dice. Decisions, decisions.

How are 18 years old going to register their illegally modified 86's for $30k without just car around?

I guess there's not many NA supras getting around with 10k stereos and 500 wheels anymore... Times are a changing.

 

You COULD get a full cage engineered. But who the f**k is going to run normal seats and a full cage? Fixed back seats not allowed. Then you'd need engineered for every other modification. Engineer says good luck or pay me thousands to say no.

    • 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.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
