This is getting way out of control. I am so paranoid I have put in 2 kill switches, and bought a premium Club lock that I use whenever my car isn't in my very secure garage. Let's hope one of us catch these people and we can send them a strong message from the Skyline community about what happens to car thieves.

Hope it turns up.

Just some tips to secure your cars fellas :

- Remove the fuel pump fuse when you leave.

- Disable the boot from opening from within the cabin.

- Disable the door unlock button by the drivers side window if you have one.

- Get a club lock.

- Get an alarm.

- Install a kill switch or two.

- Replace your steering column housing screws with torx/torx-plus screws.

- Hide all valuables from sight.

- If parked while on holidays remove the battery and/or rims.

Other than that not much else we can do.

Someone has to do a stake-out seriously! this is f**king ridiculous.

...and my mates keep calling me a paranoid f**ker, cos I will never leave my car anywhere un-attended unless its in my Garage. a nice quote "if it gets stolen it doesnt matter you have insurance" :P bullshit if my car got stolen and recovered first thing I would do is sell the molested bitch.

fkn hell...i live in prospect :P i hope that never happens to me when i get my 32 :google:

that sux dude..did u ring the cops??even tho they would probs do shit all

i rekon i might go buy a gun n shoot the fkrs if i see em..thatd sort em out

this sh*it needs to stop soon!!!

hey guys, its actually my old car, i just sold it to my mate 2 weeks ago, it was actually stolen from northfield, hampstead road way..he's done 100k's in it! sucks so bad after all the time an effort was put into it too...had no alarm as was always locked in shed at my house or at my work, so he hasnt been drivin it much to get one fitted, the one time he took it out and left it somewhere f**kheads take it! its ridiculous, just so hope he gets it back and is not torched!

ok the car was found last night at the cross keys hotel (they like the tittie bars then LOL) it was suss as they took the numbers plates and the stickers off it. It has gone up to elizabeth to be printed and stuff all the deck and speakers and gauges are gone and the front bar is rooted...i hope they catch them!

These parts have got to turn up somewhere, where are they all going. We should start engraving parts or something, help the cops track them.

Anyone want to start up a business marking parts, preferably with microdots like they use on some commodores etc.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
