Can anyone tell me who is the person to contact from shannons on here my car arrives in 2 weeks and i want to insure it very shortly have sent pm's to boosted and gtr soul who i was told were the guys to talk to but have had no reply in over a fortnight

any help much appreciated

this is the guy to contact _8OO5TED_, his real name is Matt...send him an email maybe instead of a pm and ask him to ring ya....he is really good!

Brett and I are both insured with them...being under 25 i was thinking i would have to pay sh!tloads but in the end he was hundred and hundreds of dollars cheaper (even 1000 cheaper than another company)

Hopefully that helps!

yea tried contacted him for a few weeks now he seemed to have goe MIA. I h ave a few cars to get him to indure them for me

Yeah he doesnt do that role anymore within Shannon's but can still help you out, but I dont know if he accesses SAu during the day?

He did me a great deal too, several hundred cheaper then what i was on and pay by the month at no extra charge!

Well with my insurance(through shannons) im only 22 only had my license a little while and i only paid $1100 and it has some extras like turbo timer, rims and aftermarket suspension, that they insured for me and its insured for $20k..figure thats a good deal

does anyone know of an insurer that will insure for agreed value, but only third party property/fire and theft?

i don't need comprehensive, i just don't want to lose $20k if it gets stolen..

Just Cars doit. Its part of AAMI. Shannons dont. :laugh::)

has anyone got his email addy so i can email him about insuring my cars?

cheers

Brad

Just go to view his profile and send an email from there instead of a pm...did that a couple of days ago for Brett and pretty much rang back straight away

Hope that helps

have you read the aami pds?

I have a background in insurance I work as an underwriter for one of the more well known home and contents insurers and reading through other insurance companies policies is something i do quite reguarly so when I go to get car insurance I am very picky.

Having read both AAMI's Home and Car and also Just cars product disclosure statments and comparing them to others I can honestly say that I would be very careful insuring with them and when it comes to home and contents I would defiantely insure elsewhere

The insurer whom I work for is not the cheapest but has a good product and we get a lot of people who change to AAMI due to their low prices and after the first claim they come straight back to us they find that they are not covered as comprehensively as they first thought. They just assumed as most people do that all insurance policies are the same. This is one of the biggest reasons for complaints to the insurance ombudsmen that people think they are covered for something when they arent. They normally get told that they should have read their PDS.

I would be interested in hearing what makes you think that Just Cars (AAMi) is so much better than all the other insurers.

I am not endorsing Shannons either as I have not yet had a quote or a chance to read their PDS it is printing at the moment and I will have a gander

21 yr ... south east melbourn ... full comp .. rating 3 $1450 (JUST CAR INSURANCE)value i paid for car was 15,500 series 2 white full option leather woodgrain twin sunroof ... $1450 is also covering turbo timer and r34 gtt rims .. need a new quote for front mounth and fold out dvd . RAVC quoted me over the phone .... $4580!!!! *passes out*

I just paid my premium today with JUst Cars Insurance, was pretty much the only ones that would insure me, (i was under the belief shannons didnt insure people under 25.... at least thats what their site said) but yeah for a Series 2 RS4 manual with a cat back exhaust (covered) they quoted me 1451 full comp. however i needed a cover note to drive it back from newcastle (to cairns) and so it went up to 1491... oh well gave me peace of mind driving back up the coast anyways. and oh yeah Im 21 with a claim against me in the last year and open licence and no disqualifications or suspensions...

i asked them about a cover note and they just said to me .. as soon as u pay the upfront payment .. your covered ... so i rang the seller and got the details from him .. VIN and CHASSIS # ... and it was done .. cause the guy from just car's was straight up and said its pointless and he cant be botherd doing extra paper work lol

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
