Attempted Theft - Collingwood

Just a heads up, and a reminder to be careful I suppose

Left my 33 GTR parked out of the garage for the first time in months, for not even more than two days, and someone has broken in and messed the ignition barrel up. They couldn't get it going before they got scared off, possibly due to some tricky electrical rearranging I've done, and there's no other damage, so I got pretty lucky. New set of locks will fix it, and it's good incentive to stop being lazy and finish installing the alarm properly.

It's pretty sad that you can't trust leaving your car anywhere, but I guess that's partially my fault for this car in that suburb. Bit of a shock having previously lived in a country town where there were many nights I forgot to even put the windows up :rolleyes:

Yep

My Skyline got broken into in what I thought was a safe suburb full of oldies...except I had parked it on the street for years.

Motorbike got stolen recently, locks alarms and everything. Thieves everywhere. Trust no one.

    • Because it's rubbish, it got progressively better with each generation but still rubbish when you're pushing the car on the track. Some like it, most hate it.
    • Yeah, I presumed that the pic was of some other car, because of the F. Ikeya arms.
    • Did a little bit this afternoon and pulled the dump and turbo off so I could take the mani off to clean it up and give it a few coats of paint. Wire wheeled what I could get to and then got the sand paper out to get the tight spots. Gave it one coat so far, will do another two tomorrow and see if I can fit it in the oven to bake it for an hour along with the adapter and dbw.  Hoping the exhaust wrap I ordered turns up soon so I can wrap the dump and screamer. Ordered 30M so I'll wrap back as far as I can to help a little with temp next to the box and also the floorpan. 
    • Yeah I think overall I’m running the expected power I should be running for now and I’ll just enjoy it for the time being until I get some other parts. Thanks for the advice mate I appreciate it!
    • That's fair enough.  Might be time to just enjoy what you have until you sort the ecu/flex sensor situation. You can pretty much guarantee that you are knock limited and e85 is going to be the solution to more power.
