im 18 and just cars quoted me 2746 for my 1996 gts-t unlimited mods (i have racked up the highest points with the mods i have)

premiums have come down about 800 in the last 3-4 months from just cars, only way i could afford my skyline lol

insurance premiums have dropped dramatically since a few weeks ago.

hrmm, i reckon just car should tell u straight off if a mod is legal or not. coz its not technically "easy" finding a particular rule to say if a particular mod is legal or not. if its not legal they should tell you straight away.

im not with justcar, my friend is and they told him that it was his responsibilty to make sure the mods are legal, not justcars'.

take for example the exhaust modification rule in NSW. "A vehicle cannot be fitted with an exhaust system which will work less effectively compared to factory OEM". say i get a full catback fitted onto the skyline, doing so immediately voids the rule, coz its not factory OEM specs. yet you have the option to tick "exhaust modifications" on the contract. yeh, "modifications". but who the hell is gonna change an exhaust(non sports) and tick yes? at fault claim rejected ? maybe.

you will be able to fit a cat back exhaust because it will work better than the OEM one.

but it also depends on what they classify as a "less effective exhaust".

well my quote isnt exactly word for word from the actual rule. but i do remember it being rather strict.

it sounds pretty stupid I think. They say only legal mods and it's our responsibility, so they will cover us for illegal mods, charge us extra and then possibly not pay out if something happens. They quoted me extra for my mods (exhaust and BOV) and it's third party, so they won't pay for any damage to my car anyway.

has anybody tried shannons?, I might give them a call later

Yes i had them for a long time and the price was good too but when i claimed for some repairs all hell broke lose, it tock 9 months for the car to be fixed then had to go back to another sparypainter to be finished and shannons then sent me a new policey for 3,400 so rang them and told them to **** off.

now i am with famous or unquie can remember but so far so good.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
