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.

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.

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.  
    • My steering lock unit on my Infiniti G37 has failed. The car is a local 2012 Infiniti G37 (Q60 ) I need to replace the unit My local mechanic said i need to buy a complete steering wheel assembly. Does anybody no any mechanics in Gold Coast or Brisbane who can fix this issue or where i can buy just the Steering lock control unit. Thanks
    • thanks, will conduct myself accordingly. i unfortunately put about 150 miles on the car before reading this thread again, however no PS issues, and definitely no turbo issues. it spools normally and still feels fast to me, probably because my previous car was an N/A auto sedan...gonna go fix the PS vacuum line though lol. safe to say, got what i came to this thread for. thanks  
    • Agreed, I've never seen a 260RS specific manual. As GTSBoy said it will mostly be stagea other than the engine loom https://www.hgeconsulting.com.au/stageaservicemanual.pdf
