Just to let everyone know that the heat has brought out the thieving element in force!

I work on Constitution Ave up near the defence offices. At some stage today there were multiple break-ins which were done by smashing windows rather than the old screwdriver in the lock trick. My genius office manager heard several alarms going off but was too stupid to say or do anything (she is closest to the street side windows)!!!

I would not be suprised if they also hit the easy pickings of the big open defence carparks.

Luckily for me I catch the bus Mon-Fri and just use my baby for weekend fun (dirty pun unintended). Pitty that this kind of topic has to be my first post but I thought everybody ought to know.

So be on the lookout and hope for the best but always plan for the worst.

Wagga has had heaps of break in and home invasions over the past week, as well as a few cars going missing and heaps broken into (around here its usually a broken window).

When I had to park in "uncovered" parks, I always had a bomb just to drive there, a clublock just to make niking it a little bit harder and left it open. It was gone through a few times, but never went missing.

It sucks that you can't just drive whatever you want to work though.

That really does suck! You spend all this time and money on your car and someone just takes it away from you. I spent all this money on Soundsteam gear and it was stolen out of the garage! Pissed me off considering it took us ages to save up for that gear and it was top of the line and a lot of it!!!

I just hope that nothing gets stolen from anyone else so everyone can enjoy their Christmas!!

I remember reading about that on the forms a wile ago, man it sucks. I’m still trying to replace all my gear. It’s like you said it takes forever to save up for the good stuff. As I don’t like to by the cheap gear either. Then add that on top of every thing else that needs to be done, engine mods, gauges ect…….. I need a better paying job!

Yeah I am currently working three jobs (while doing a law degree mind you) and really upsets me knowing that someone who probably has never had a job in his/her life has got my $20k worth of soundsteam gear! The police knew who it was that stole it and was able to get back jewellery and other things but unfortunetaly my gear seemed to have been so hot that it got passed on really quickly.

Just really annoying when you work so hard to get top stuff for something you love (in this situation, your car) and then someone who deserves something from the gutters gets it all.

    • I do like the look of these things (minus the ugly flat top surface with the text) https://rajabracing.com.au/product/nissan-rb25det-neo-intake/ Retains the OEM bottom runners, for that phat low range. If you want response king, maybe go with the Plazmaman pipe work, here's my old setup from a decade ago
    • Torque will suffer greatly, will try and find dyno difference on r34 with gt30 between stock and plazmaman short runner. like 2000-3000rpm power rdip at least. EDIT Green line is stock manifold, others is plazmaman short runner I also had a rb25 with greddy and q45 TB back in the day and was shit daily driving. Plazmaman top plenum with stock runner and DBW made it so much nicer.
    • Welcome to !
    • As I've said elsewhere, I am using the stock intercooler piping path in the engine bay, and a return flow cooler, and making ~250 rwkW (without any effort put into trying to turn it up past there just yet) and expect to be able to make some more, and frankly, I would be perfectly happy with 260-270rwKW. This is peak road Skyline usability territory. You go past there and, sure, the car will snap necks more when it's on boost, but it will also break shit all the time, cost a (even larger) fortune in tyres, etc etc. Anyway, I also do not like the over-the-fan pipe path, and you don't have to do it.
    • I see, honestly I’m not too fussed about the looks. The only reason to go plenum is to make the piping easier instead of the classic over the rad etc.
