Ok peoples... this happened like 2 mins ago, im ever so proud :devil:

I was trying to sleep as one does at 1;45am.. and we heard glass brake so my parents run outside and notice the window of there car is smashed and the glovebox is ripped open.... My mom saw the one guy he was wearing a black jacket and a black cap.

I quickly decided to drive round the area and see if i can find em, and finaly enough i see a guy fitting the discription snooping around cars 1km away from my house on malvern rd in armadale. The guy quickly jumped in his car and sped off when he noticed i was watching. i followed in the mighty skyline :w00t: you could tell he was dodgy, when he relised i was following him he kept changing his direction indicating left and then turning right etc.... Then i notice the cops drive past him on the way to my house so i try to flag em down and get them to do a uturn and chase after them, which didnt quite work.

I gave the cops his rego and (surprise surprise) the owner of the car has 2 prior car theft charges !!!!! :O

Police are on there way now to pickup the little fella :)

Case closed !!

Dectective justin strikes again :) no reward for me though.... :D

BTW if anyone ever see's a blue Rodeo pickup truck, rego WOT-004 be sure to return the favour and smash in his window / go through the glovebox :)

Aparantly someone with a CLK up the road at around the same time, also had there window broken and all the wiring under the dash is all hacked up.

My moms just got a crapy astra convertible... now im no brain surgeon :devil: but if you wanted to brake into a convertible wouldnt you just cut the soft roof material stuff ????

Yes, because car manufacturers use bolt cotton for their soft tops...

wait, no they don't. Try and cut it (on a wreck). A window would be quicker.

Guys like this are the reason I hate parking on the streets... Good work, Detective Justin...

(cue voice over...)

If theres ever trouble, just call justin911.

justin911. For all your private investication needs

i live inbetween 2 police stations :wave: malvern station is like 1km down the road, and glenferrie is 1km up the road..

Unfortunatly though i doubt anything will happen to the guy... he had been caught stealing cars on 2 seperate occasions previously and he's still roaming around :(

Also well done to the Cops as well for their promt respond.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
