And whilst kicking them, you'll be ringing me to come kick the shit out of them also!

Was thinking of ringing the messenger in my area(Unley/Parkside) and getting a write up about the break ins in our area, cos now were upto at least 5 in the last month! was gonna put in there something like "no disrespect to the Police, BUT we Skyline owners will have to take things into our own hands if this doesn't stop" I'll see how we go, still thinking about it!!

I'm even thinking of ringing the cops and trying to work with them on using a/my car as bait and go undercover with them, I'm sure they are aware of the amount of calls with attempted or stolen Skylines of recent past!!

Maybe it should go into every messenger and not just the Port Adelaide Messenger like before!

Did you report it to the Police?

Might seem minor but if they are aware they can deploy the appropriate resources as the penninsula is quite a hotspot for motor vehicle crime.

you don't need to be specific, but what area of north haven, in the marina area or the older area's that were built in the 70's. i live near the foodland so i think i'll be keeping a close eye on mine. arm up people, we need to fix this problem ourselves, cops are useless.

hey brittz

the pager alarm is an alarm that when it is set off it lets your pager know so it beeps at you my bf has one on his car and the pager can be set off up to 500meters away. It has a little screen on it with a pic of a car too haha it tells you whats happening if the cars been hit or theres a door open etc.

Its definatly worth the money some of them come with remote start so you can warm your car up etc.

If you want to get a quote go to Angs audio shop on north east road. it cost my bf $850 thats the top of the line one too mates rates haha.

Go in and talk to ang tell him lauren aka pinkbits sent you down there he should fix you up

my pager is top of the line, pager, remote start, turbo timer, internal siren, 4 point immobilizer, all these gizmos n shit. straight line coverage of 3km. definetly recommend.

I will report it tomorrow, didn't think it was worth it but hey, if enough people report it then maybe they might take more notice. I live on delfin island with the car locked away under a carport majority of the time so im not stressed too much and the car's always in my sights at work anyways but you never know when they'll strike.

alarm up people!!

im worried for when i get my license back and my car comes out of the back shed of the old mans joint, because i currently live in a block of town houses...

I have an immobiliser and Alarm, but not one of these pager items.

i'm just going to have to keep a good ear out at all times, especially sleeping upstairs. Mind you, it wouldnt be easy for a thief to get away with the 4 point turns you need to perform to get out of my parking spot up the driveway.

Hopefully if it did happen, straight outside to catch the c*&^ for a few slaps then hostage straight in the back shed gaffer taped to a chair. then invite all my mates around for BYO yellow pages interrogation and torture

      I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.

      Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days

      It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
