bad luck stan. hope it gets sorted champ.

i reckon we should take it into our own hands and park a skyline in a dark corner, wait for these little c**ts that are braking into them, wait for them to make a move on the car, jump out and obtain them, turn them in after making them a bit sore....

im in.

Sorry to hear about it stan.. in my eyes your lucky that they weren't professionals..

what would you rather - a broken window.. or your whole car gone being stripped..

just a reminder to people.. keep the interior of your car clean, pull off the stereo faceplate, put it in the glove box.. hopefully this will stop giving people a reason for doing this shit..

very f**ked up.. hope you get all the replacement parts ok..

Have a chat to centre management and see if you can have a look at the security camera footage around the time it would have happened. Here at my local westfield they have some cameras in the carparks to monitor traffic movements but theres nothing to say they havent caught the theif walking through the carpark.

Its worth a shot i guess.

sorry to hear mate.

If i hear anything i will let you know.

SXC180, you should try deathstaring the little c*nts every time you see them, seems to work a treat for me O_o sometimes i leave my windows down a bit O_o

bad luck stan. hope it gets sorted champ.

im in.

OMG Stan, i saw your freakin car. what a mess.. i'm really sorry to hear brother, i walked out and heard a car alarm going off, i saw it was your skyline with glass everywhere, i'm so sorry brother, i didn't see anything. westfeild have survailence for both carpark and shopping center, see if you can get some ids .

im so put off going to miranda, there have been countless break ins, skylines stolen and it still continues, like i said in the last car stolen thread at miranda i reckon we should take it into our own hands and park a skyline in a dark corner, wait for these little c**ts that are braking into them, wait for them to make a move on the car, jump out and obtain them, turn them in after making them a bit sore....

not a bad idea actually , i m in!! :thumbsup:

Very unlucky Stan.

Best of luck with getting them, getting your gear back.

Very stupid no one said anything when your alarm was blaring and both windows smashed.. C'mon guys.

Really hate reading stuff like this, I bet you just wished you where 5/10 mins quicker and caught them doing it..

All the best

OMG DUDE AT MIRANDA westifeild?? serious..

where abouts did you park mate?? what level.. please pm me it if you wish..

Be lucky your car wasnt stolen..

have you spoken to managnment??

I seriously reckon they should step up on security.. Have cameras at all exits, hell even ask ppl to pay for parking at all levels.. Cameras at most hidden corners.. Seriously they make enough money already, how can they not put up cameras..

Everyone should really park at security!!

this is frustrating news now..

Thanks for the support everyone, but what has happened has happened... already sorting out most of the required parts/people to make it all happen again - for now the car is just at home sulking like me :P

Anyways, I was parked on the rooftop level between 1pm and 3pm. I spoke with management and they have said that there are no security cameras on this level (how convenient)

If I had known that there was security parking, I would've been in there - everyone who knows me will vouch for the fact that I am very careful with the car and will not skimp on security. Truth of the matter was that I did not know this option existed.

There is some development with the signage at Miranda (thanks to the person who did that massive favour for me, you know who you are). I will be looking at action against Westfields - but saying this, the people there were quite helpful.

XINHUA - What is wrong with you? You see my car hit in a open carpark and you do not call the police??? The least you could've done for me was notify people at the shopping centre instead of walk off like you didn't even see it.

I can't believe you would even have the guts to tell me you saw my car there like that and you didn't do a thing. I am lost for words, but to sum it all up - you're a DOG!

sorry to hear about your car stan. that sucks mate. My advice is forget about this $3K reward. it's a waste of time, and your money if you should happen to pay it. Just file the claim with your insurer (if you have one of course) and move on. yes it sucks. But unfortunately we live in a city with crime. it may be hard to see it this way, but look on the bright side. you have a skyline. many people do not and would give a lot to have one (even one with a smashed window).

also, i would never park on a top level of a carpark as they often get the least traffic so are a nice quiet place for people to break into cars. parking on the levels that are busiest is best. also always take your phone out of the car, and if you have a flashy stereo that has a removable face take it too (or at least lock it in the boot with the release disabled).

again, sorry to hear but it's not so bad.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
