Someone attempted to breakin to my R32GTR today. :rant:

A screwdriver was used to make an attempt to get into my car . Nice hole just behind the drivers side door handle.

Car was sitting out the front of my work in front of the office. My car has an alarm and imobiliser , and a unique sounding exhaust. Everyone at work would know the sound of the car so if they got in and started the car , we all would of been aware .

Guess what , there is video surveillance . Hope they smiled for the camera's. :ph34r:

I was stupid enough the other day to post a response to thread detailing the where abouts of my car today :blush: and walla, car broken into. Car has been there for 5 yrs and nothing until the above mistake.

My car wont be there anymore .

I enjoy the drive ' but mycars safety is more important , looks like weekend cruises only now.

SAU'ers beware as this says that the responsible party are on this forum , reading our topic's.

Therefore I would recomend that everybody take extreme caution on what they say.

I have noticed quite a few of us mention :eg Gee that is just around the corner from me (stolen car threads especially) and this is just as good as giving these mongrels your address. :cheers:

Guilty party, I hope your reading this ! :w00t:

Hope the video surveillance took some clear shots of their face so we can bring their scum bag ass to justice! OR we could always go vigilante on their asses! :cheers:

my car will be parked at sturt police station tomorrow if u wanna have a look guys, feel free to try and break in :cheers:

This probably wouldn't deter these clowns........after all, they steal police cars while a cop is attending a motor vehicle accident only a few metres away!?

Wouldn't mind rigging up a high voltage steering wheel but knowing my luck, I'd forget to disarm it one morning and toast myself. :w00t::blush::ph34r:

Good to see they didn't get away with your car at least Michael.

And only yesterday when replying to somebody about where I live did I say I won't go to the detail of the exact suburb for this exact reason.

It's sad. Suprised these low lifes can even read let alone have interweb access :P lol

The owner will be at my work tomorow so I can look through the footage myself.

I will post up any details of the car and person involved ie type of car and colour and brief description of those involved.(except plates of vehicle , that goes to the police with a copy of the video) :P

There is one other thing though .

A couple of weeks ago , a red 34 2door skyline pulled into the carpark and stopped for a while (motor left running ) and sped off out of the carpark when approached by a fellow staff member.My car alarm went off and I came running out into the car park to see it taking off down the road .

If this person is on this forum please say so ,(that way we can rule you out of the suspect list) other wise people I would be warey of any car similar hanging around your beasts .

I didn't mind people looking at the car but would be nice if they introduce themselves first .

The police will probably give them 6 months tops if they catch them.

A baseball bat to the front of the knees will slow them down for a lot longer (as Tangles and a few others will attest to)

I think its time that this was handeled outside of the law (provided video is clear on identifying the guilty pri*k)

The car was nice and clean , so I was tempted to take it down to the cop shop to see if they could get some finger prints of it . Window tint and exhaust made me think about defect so I changed my mind .

Would of been typical , you know , go down being the victim of attempted breakin only to get victimised more and get a canary shoved on the window .

      7 Speed Auto transmission fluid change (Skyline, Q50, Q60, Fuga, Q70, A62 Titan and probably heaps of others including Navara...)

      By Duncan · Posted

      I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....

      So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.

      our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
