Well just got back from Fi's cousins wedding which I had a great time at to find that my car has been broken into, passenger side window smashed all my gauges gone and my SAFC II. I am going down to have a proper look and clean it up but I am f**king pissed off. This is about the 5 or 6th break in about 4 weeks in this complex I had nothing visible in the car other than obviously the gauges and safc... they didn’t take the stereo or anything else, probably good I had the head deck out... anyways if anyone see's or hears of anything please ring pm me

It's a blue screen SAFC II with an Apexi stand.

The guages are all autometer carbon fibre ones

Yup reported it to the police straight away they were not much help at all. They took the details down but basically said it happens and that they were not going to send anyone out to look at it. I can sort of understand this as it would happen fairly often but still it doesnt help my case... So all they are helpful for in this case is when my insurance agency talks with the police. Still working out if its worth making a claim i will have to work out how much my premium will go up + the excess is not small :)... maybe i just repair the window, sell the car and get a shit box till i buy a house and have a proper garage...

hmmmm i wonder if the police say this to every car theift victim, or do they go indepth with the first ones and eventually get to the latter ones?

yea it's a security car park (swipe cardD) but there are about 90 - 100 car parks due to them combining the two adjacent appartments + people have multiple spares which they could just give to anyone if they wanted and no body would know :)

It's annoying but i guess shit happens can't win em all :D

man, when this shit happens when youve gotta alarm installed makes me sketchy about mine,, . I'm getting an alarm installed tomorrow. but if theifs these days dont care about them ,, they kinda seem pointless to have after hearing a story like this..

they need to make alarms which phsically harm those who enter your car..

leigh i was shocked when i read inside here that ppl broke into your car, karma comes around mate. bad thing about something like this, is that it's obviously somebody who lives in the complex, or a friend of that somebody.

Yeah it would be somebody who has seen the car before , i keep a ear out for any cheap parts. This shit is F**ked why cant people just keep there hands off other peoples skylines

Bad luck there, shit happens and unfortunately the local police don't seem to want to do anything about petty crimes anymore. I've heard too many stories like this lately, and it seems that it's only going to get worse if the police and Government get their shit together and do something about it. We're going to end up like Sydney the way we are going.

damn i missed your post sin :)

cheers for the words guys yes it is very annoying but i wont bag my alarm as it clearly worked as they must of got in and out bloody quick. The alarm was still in one piece though from what i can see.

After thinking about it more and looking at how it was done i dont think they were trying to steal the car in the first place... they were just after some parts which they will probably be able to flog off quickly and easily. The only good thing i can say about whoever did it is that they were clean about it (other than the window) all the wiring has just been cut right up near the top of the stolen items so they didnt rip it out or anything which is good as they didnt really damage anything else in the process.

Anyways i am ringing around for quotes this morning to find out if it's worth putting a claim in stupid high excess :thumbsup: anyone have any mates in the glass industry lol

cops dont do shit for car break ins.

gfs car got broken into, they took name, rego, parts stolen and chased her up about the damn TITLES of the CDs stolen for a week. WTF? go catch criminals not ring constantly asking exactly what cds were taken!

another mates S13 got nicked (the whole car) and he found it luckily a few streets away but they wouldnt come out for that until he footstamped and threatened until the did.

cops are useless unless your dead. then they seem to take notice.

I agree with low200 the cops are hopeless or just dont care , I had 2 cars stolen and both times they said I done it and it was a crime to make to report a car stolen when it wasn`t. The second time was in Queanbeyan , the cop after making me wait for 4hrs said he wouldn`t do a stolen car report as he didn`t think the car was stolen , I went off my head and told him to do his job and it was MY car and i wanted a stolen car report done , he than was going to arrest me but could tell me what for he was just gunna, then after all that the cop told me that if i didn`t mind not to put a report as it made the Queanbeyan police station yearly report look better if it didn`t have as many stolen cars.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
