guys what is the deal with insurance as if you have an accident

iam getting insurnace for my 180sx in prob feb next year.

now i have been driviing for 1 year third parity and iam 50 50 driver.

and just cars wont put me on rating 5 the bastards.

but if you do have an accident what is the deal? does your rating drop down by 1 or does it go all the way back to 6?

if i was on rating 1 and had an accident and it was my fualt will it drop? and if it wasnt my fault what happends?

and also if you had insurance with another company like racv on your parents car . like one of you guys said. and then you have an accident with your car what happends

As far as I know:

1. If you have an accident and need to make a "claim", you lose your "no claim" bonus, I presume you go back to the worst rating

2. 3rd Party Comprehensive does NOT give you a no claim bonus.

Just Cars told me last week they don't acknowledge that you are on your parents policy. They said they don't, don't want to know, not counting for didly squat. So check which insurer you go through first before applying this idea.

I do know Suncorp will take it. But as my mother has sinced passed away, and there is not record of me being on this policy i got no chance.

While on hold with Just Car on the telephone they say that if you have have third party cover for the last 5/6 years, they will give you 60%NCB.

Suncorp is a more reputable company but once you are over 2 mods and are <25 ur insurance premium skyrockets.

Most young ppl i know are with Just Car, but i would like to know anyone who has had to claim with them. Good or bad. So if u can PM me of any experiences that would be great.

that is if you have had third party with them only i believe. i remember the hold messages. i've spent alot of time on hold with insurance companies

NIZ30 is right about Just Cars not accepting your NCB if you were a nominated driver. you need to have had cover under your name for them to acknowledge it. i tried this one too:(

Just Cars Insurance is operated by AAMI, so they are just as reliable as Suncorp. I am 22 and went through Just Cars to insure my R32 GT-R for $3200, i can do unlimited modifications to my car as long as 1. I tell them and 2. They are roadworthy. The next cheapest was AAMI itself for $4400....

I've just moved from canberra to sydney. Im with Suncorp. I told them of the change of address and my premium has almost doubled. man I thought Mosman would be low risk. Any way called up famous, there qoute was better than I had with suncorp in canberra.

Are these people reputable, saw there add in HPI. Or are they too good to be true???

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
