Last night around the 0230 am mark my skyline was attempted to be broken into by petty ass farkers in the early hours of friday morning, attempted through passenger side door by prying the door handle off and trying to get into through the cables, (UNSUCCESSFULL)

mind you though causing 800 dollars damage as the handle and lock assembly is buggered and also that there are numerouse dents and bends around the door latch/handle where they tryed with screwdrivers but just a warning, as this seems to be a common thing around the rochedale underwood area close to the BP service station on logan road in underwood, So be aware that if you have a car around this area be concious of petty farkers going around doing these things.

not only that they pried the fuel door open and stole the fuel cap and drained a full tank of fuel, and alsodid the car which was right next to mine.

Just a general warning to any skyline owners out there or other cars for that matter around that region to be aware of these type of pricks

Cheers

Adam

I know some places out west (like inland australia) it is common practice leaving the fuelflap open, putting the cap in your glovebox and just stuffing a rag over the filler hole as the indigenous lads with their petrol sniffing will get to your fuel one way or another.

haha yeah good one with the rag! The best fuel economy so far i have ever had 45L to 4.8 Kms woohoo yeah we can only hope the karma catches up with them. But mind u the thing which can possibly sh!t me off more would be if they do it again to my car, and yeah i did have an alarm but for some fkd up reason it was on valet mode ;) not happy bout that

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
