Damn, I've only been back in Canberra a month and someone has already tried to break into my car.

was parked in the griffin centre carpark near the contruction site between 7.30-9pm. Came back to the car and notice the alarm has gone off. Did a quick inspection of the car as usual and noticed slight scratches at the passenger door frame and window. looks like they tried prying my window open in 3 different spots but they were doing it in the wrong place anyway. the alarm must of went off when they used too much force.

Is there any safe place to park in the city these days?

Not near a methadone clinic thats for certain.

I must be getting on, I just wanna kill all the little F@#$%R's..Odds on an addict!

Put a guillotine in Garema place and have weekend executions televised.

It will either pursuade the F@#$%R's to stop or we'll eventually run out of addicts.

Tollerance is not my strong suit!

That suck mate.

I had the same thing happen to me in the civic pool car park. Try to park as close as you can to a busy area with people always walking by.

I now try to park next to a pay parking ticket machine only because i know they are always people coming and going during the day.

At night it may be a bit of a hike but you could try parking in the convention centre car park. I think its got CCTV on the entry and exit so you may get them on camera.

If you dont have a screamer fitted inside your car i recomend getting one. The noise of these things is enough to make most people feel pretty crook and give them a decent headache.

It sucks to hear this has happend in civic again!!

Cheers

i'm lucky, i work at the construction site next to the griffin centre, and as such have a key to the site. i park inside the locked, barbed wire fence at night, so none of the little druggo's can get in :thumbsup:

Yep yep yep. I've previously busted a guy trying to break into my old falcon, needless to say - I didn't involve the police.

Having had my house and car broken into, I'd rather the car anyday. Your home is even MORE intrusive.

Its not fair when you work hard for something, and someone decides they deserve it more than you. :D

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed

      Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
