thats all crazy talk.

dont stop living your life with your loved one (enter family, friend, car here)

with the car, simply insure it for as much as possible......... if something is going to happen to it, then its all about 'chance' in my opinion, not too much you can do about it. Even if you wrap the car in cotton wool and keep it in a secure lock up garage, something could still happen to it, by chance.

bad luck, but good luck that you still have you gtr to enjoy. so enjoy it.

I'm keen as mate, think i'd go a little too far tho........ "Darren stop hitting him" "no" "Darren he's unconcious" "I know"......LOL

Grab a carton of Coopers and were set Andrew!!

hahaha i love it, i can just imagine you doing that :D

good to hear they didn't get to far with it :)

here here Brendan the most sence talked so far

did they set the alarm off or manage to bypass the siren

by the look of it they used a strip down the driverside window into the door to get the door open when they opened the door the siren went off they then poped the bonet and ripped the wire out of the siren they didnt do mutch damage other than the siren wiring and the ignition barrel. lucky Japanese motor sport had one they could sell me.

they had no idea about the imobiliser and that is what saved the car im so glad they didnt stuff up the door locks

and the most anoying part is the fact that i have a new ignition but to get the old one out i had to take out two tamper proof screws, the bastards have no head or any way to get them out, i had to drill a hole and use a punch to slowley hammer the screws around till they got loose enough to move by hand

you know guy some of this talk does worry me

NOW i know sum of you guys are JOKING and only venting

BUT remember if any vigilante behavior is executed the this would make you no better than the common criminal and leave you open to prosecution

I work at TTP and I've been around there long enough to know that this stuff happens all the time. Thats the reality. It sucks I know.

Then you think, maybe it isnt worth driving your car around etc etc, but in the end what did you buy it for??? Like someone said before: ENJOY IT. Honestly I think twice before I take my car out and thats the worst part!! I never used to even consider what car I drove, what ever was on the driveway I took...

The good comes with the bad- Compromise :)

well the car is all go again i put in the new ignition after having the pins set to my key the alarm siren was replaced.

so now its just a bad memory.

i heard from one of the undercover officers and they told me that they got a match from the prints they took so hopefully they will get the sons of biaches!

i think its time to put the ugly club lock back on just as a visual deterant because there is know way they would know that the car is imobilised but they cant miss the trusty club lock.

Geese, I am liking owning my skyline less and less in some ways. I love driving it and it such a cool car, but at the rate they are getting stolen it is almost turning them into a cruise only car. You can't leave them anywhere without that fear no matter what security system you have.

Any those guys that tried to boost your car will probably just get a slap on the wrist and told not to do it again.

As I see it, if you sell up because of the thieves, you are really letting them win. I know that I sure as hell won't stop driving my car any less just cos some assholes want to try to steal it. Just work to minimise risks; I see people park their cars down dark alleyways and think that you might as well have a bright neon sign saying "STEAL ME"

You can leave them anywhere, just need enough kill switches and know theres no chance of them starting it, when ever you leave it, take out head unit and hide any other 'less' valuables under the seat or lock them in the glove box so they are out of site.

Im going to get small stickers made up that say: Surveilance camera's in use in this vehicle, enter at own risk!

If your worried about your car being stolen, only take it to places that you know your only going to be a few minutes, or you can see it at all times.

And i agree with Heslo, Don't let the theives win!

you read my mind my friend..read my projected thoughts like a newspaper.

+1 for the stake out.

I have some great paint stripper that would go nicely on their nuts. Those of you who have used it know how much it burns and how hard it is to get off your skin!

BRING ON THE NAPARM!!!

What are they going to do go to the cops. Just tape them breaking into the car and say they pulled a knife on you when you comfronted them. The paint stripper might be hard to explain, as well as the fact they've been lock in my pit for a couple weeks but i'd TRY to explain.

you guys make this thread out to sound like every man and his dog is after nicking a skyline!!

bloody hell. I'm from Adelaide, now in Tokyo and id like to say that all this talk is deterring me from even thinking about having a skyline when and if i go back!

Jesus. Adelaide has a population of only one million people. I live in a city that has more than the entire population of Australia COMBINED and yet for a reason i cant fathom more skylines are getting stolen there as opposed to here...!!!!????

what the bloody hell is going on there/??????

cant people there keep their filthy hands to themselves?? :worship::):rofl::rant: :rant: :rant::rofl::spank: :spank:

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
