1. Insurance does not necessarily go down with more no claims, it also has to do with the ammount of cars/accidents/thefts of that type of vehicle in your area.
2. Try some of the specillist insurance co's for young drivers, should be better than 3999 but your still going to get stung, just spend a day calling around.
3. You were pretty lucky to get insured on an STi anyway most companies wont insure you under 25!
Good hunting

I just cant understand why people would want to spend well over 3k on insurance. I know scoobies are great, but surley you should get a hot hatch of some sort for the first 2-3 years and build ur ncb up.
As said the insurance nearly out pays the cars value........Money to burn or what, even worse with the tax/petrol/servicing, to me its madness.

I was 21, 3ync , DR10, 4 years driving experience and owning a P1, my insurance was £2800 which is still alot, but it would have been around £2000 if i didnt have a DR10, Stupid mistake but iv learnt my lesson.

fookin el, get rid of the car until you have more no claims, as much as you may love the car it aint worth that in insurance no matter what anyone says.
just to give you an idea, im 33, no no claims, a licence revocation to my name ( no im not proud of it ) on a my 94 sti 392.00 fully comp with kwik fit
