well people i will be buying 4 diffrent types of lock nuts today and barb wire to run across the top of the fence incase they try to jump over :dry:

and have been starting to park really really close to the house, so they cant get to 1 side of the car

as for calling the police.... that was a waste of time, it seems that they have better things to at night. tho 5 cars have been stolen of my street over the last two months

but i hope that i hear them coming! if i catch them ill call the whole street to come over, so they can have a hit or 2...

damn why cant people just buy things...... then we all wouldnt have to worry about stuff like this

um... I'm goin out on a limb here... but moving out of the ghetto might be a starting point.

He shouldn't have to move house because some shitkunt cant afford to buy his own rims, and not like it's easy to move houses.

Be cheaper and quicker to just get a garage built, provided he has the room.

Good luck with it Allen Paul! Hope you catch the pricks.

5 cars stolen from the same street in under 2 months? that's a bit too much don't you think? surely there's a neighbourhood watch/lynch mob forming by now.

They probably think its easy pickings so are getting more and more daring.

Best bet would be to get a sensor light and have it hooked up to some bright ass bulbs. That's usually enough of a deterrent.. could always get it wired up to an alarm/buzzer.

Parking one side of your vehicle close to the house is a great idea.

ok i got it...

dig a moat around your car thats 11 feet deep and 2 and a half inches... no more... no less... or it wont work... make sure u fill it 31.4inches from the top... then... go get 7 sharks with laser beams on their heads and put them in the water... cover the top with vines and thatch... make it look as inconspicuous as possible... then when they come to take the wheels or car... CRUNCH! SLAP!! BAM!! ZAP!!! BATMAN!!!

and best of all... there will be no bodies left behind as evidence.

case closed set and match.

perhaps another perspective.

It is someone who is trying to scare you. I dont think anyone is really that stupid to leave a gate open when they are sussing out a car as it will be too apparant to the owner that they intend to deface your vehicle.

Maybe its just someone trying to send you a msg.

just a thought.

hey funky

me an you are preety much from the same area but i am from N.P so you know what it is like down here. yea we do have neighbourhood watch, but it seem that they are watching there own shit.

a letter from the police gets sent out to my whole street, saying what has happend in our suburb...thats how i know about 5 cars in two months

3 years ago i had a black r32 gtst an that got stolen... i had no insurance, the police found the car 2 weeks later, in the guy garage.....stripped! and so i sold the car for 3k a total loss of about 11k

so i cant get done again by this type of crap

Have you ever thought the people who are trying to steal your wheels, might know who you are through this forum?

Posting your solution to the problem is a little bit silly i think...

Inform the police, and improve your home security, that's probably the best deterrent...

haha yeah i know, i freak out about the quality of security where we are now, even with a lock up garage. but seems like NP is far worse. had the shock of my life when my insurance premium jumped so much when I moved from bundoora to here.

No joking matter I agree, but some funny shit from the usual funny crunts!

In your place I would go for a big ass sensor flood light they are cheap and you can just hook it up with an extension lead.

With a kit like that in a burb like that i would also pull a car cover over it at about 10 pm every night just to remove the visual and make a show of awareness.

Also a paging alarm with a microwave detector will give you all the peace of mind you need... as long as it's a Directed electronics brand like Viper of Clifford and fitted by a human with skill not a monkey with a screwdriver.

i used the screwdriver to fix my latching problem danny! you were spot on, the screw had come loose and it was just sliding around when I locked it.

i think the best solution would be to make it hard for them to get to your car.. as people have mentioned: sensors, different lock nuts etc. this will probably stop them from coming back.

but i also think that some people need to be taught a lesson.. a lesson making sure they don't go and steal people's cars/parts again! i would get mates down, get them into the garage, cut their figertips off, then burn the tips to stop blood loss ;) put their thieving hands to a stop!

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
