if only JCI offered that!

Unfortunately there is alot Just Cars dont offer, but hey thats why they generally have small premiums and will atleast offer you insurance regardless of age/record.

You guys should be happy with what you pay

My premium last year was $4400 for a $44K 33 gtr with mods

This year im pretty stoked. $3165 with 40% no claim, 24 yr old in sydney. But my car value has dropped to 41k

Thats big $$ :D

Is it heavily modified?

33 GTR for me as a 24 year old with JCI was $1200 fully comp which was standard apart from an exhaust.

Interestingly I pay less to insure my Lexus with RACV than JCI quoted me. I pay $530 fully comp on the IS200 and JCI wanted $900.

On the original subject, from my previous insurance experience both here and overseas, anything illegal voided the entire insurance whether it contributed to the claim or not.

exactly, the boost controller wasnt the cause of the claim, right? hense they paid out. i doubt many assessors could confidently examine a modified Jap import and identify all the mods and what they do anyway.

think about it logically for a second. if they didnt pay someones claim out because of a boost controller or something similar it would kill their business. (half the people with policies would pull out). for legal resons they probably have to say they wont but they always will.

I've recently received a few quotes..

Cheapest were JustCars but they don't have pay by the month. Just Cars have a horrid excess should something happen.

Famous Car Insurance is pretty damn cheap also and do monthly.

Their excess is a little high.

Shannons have a pretty good all round policy, free windscreen, really cheap excesses and a pretty damn good price and no extra cost for monthly. But no under 25's.

Vigil... hrmm They were just over $200 more expensive than Shannons or more importantly $500 more than Just Cars. They required a receipt of the type of alarm and came across as being very picky. Their excess is pretty nasty, no free windscreen. They do monthly.

Free windscreen is a pretty big one, I've always used it in the past. Why put up with a crack in the windscreen if you don't have to. :P

I've got just cars insurance full comprehensive

98 r34 gt-t skyline

agreed to cover listed mods - boostcontroller, fmic, bov, exhaust

agreed to cover listed accesories - turbo timer ,alarm

agreed value - $34000

rating 1 - 24 yo

premium = $1100 next year falls to about $900

i reckon that's pretty reasonable don't you guys

when you say they agreed to cover your mods, are they covering the car with the mods fitted in the event of an accident claim etc, or covering those items for theft....ie if someone breaks in and steals your boost controller, TT etc,

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
