now ive had a turbo gtr/gtr for the last 4 years

never had a problem before

but in the last two weeks it has been busted into twice. i live in a very quiet part of padsow that noone ever comes down so they obviously have been checking the car out for a while.

now last night i cought them in the act (over at a mates place)

they couldnt get it started and left

so i called the cops

then the brains came back with 4 mates in a civic.. they scoped the car out for a bit did a few drivebys. i called the cops again

they were heading to the car so ive come out (not very smart) and they did the bolt. no point chassing i had about 12 beers

cops turn up 1 minute later and go hunting

cops say what car was it

i say skyline and they finsih the sentance "GTR"

anyway i now need a new key barrel and lock and new turbo timer

if only i had a gun

this is the only time the car has been outside in its life and it was in a pivate parking spot at a mates place in abbortsford

Well,

It seems like ure in a loose/loose position atm. Expect them to come back, so it might be time to revise ure alarm setup and drop something new in there, like a tracka perhaps?

Might also be a good idea to drop ure baby into storage for a month or 2. Sure its a pain, but if they get to ure car and can't tax it, they might be inclined to key it etc.

yea its got a few kill switches

now has a 4 point immobilizer

never gets parked on the street

my gtr key only works on the door now and i have a gay gts key for the ignition

i think thiefs r lower than parking inspector they all should dye

car is for sale im sick of the hassels

Dan I was thinking the same thing..........

He he - yeah Pete - I'll swap you for mine - Cheaper insurance, Not as old, maybe less milage, less hassle, more sideways action and give a GTR a good run for it's money.......:):P

I cringe when I hear of this stuff now. It just sucks to know that you can't leave your valuables anywhere... This is the worst thing about owning such a schmick car. Perhaps you should consider mounting a bull bar to the gtr and go hunting for the little bastards... :headshot:

Fatz, sounds like you need to do what i have done. Go to rebel sport and buy yourself an alloy baseball bat and keep it in your house.

Let this be a warning to anyone i find that should not be there. I have had enough from the crap job that the police do.

Like the sign says “Person found here at night, will be found here in the morning” (with a little picture of a gun)

Haha. I like that one! want to get something like that for mine...

I'd love to come up with some ingenius anti-theft device. One of the guys from work used to have a motion activated webcam setup out the front with sensor lights. That worked well, but you really need something that's going to deter them immediately.

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
