At Carousal Fast Eds yesterday, i spotted some dude taking a few shots off his digicam of my car...either that or my friend's car(180SX) cos we were parked side by side...:Paranoid:

anybody had this happen to them? hope it's not going to be marked by some elaborate car thieves ring or something...i mean my car is fairly standard:rolleyes:

looking behind to see anybody suspicious following me now on the road:Paranoid:

i had this happen to me at work but nothing happended when i approached the guy he ran off i was expecting my car to get piched every days for weeks so i know how you feel

i jsut get little kids come up and go - look mum its a skyline .... running their grubby little vegemite stained fingers over the back badge .... look its a skyline .... and mums just standing their going so?? ..... but its quite impressive little 5 yr olds knowing quality when they see it :P :P

im sure it was just someone appreciating your car ..... someone has video footage of mine ..... just decided to start rolling their video camera when mine was at the lights one day.

Unless they are hi-tech crims or just little fags walkin about with a digicam, waiting to find a line to jerk off to, then i wouldnt really worry too much, there are only two ways to steal a skyline.. dentpuller + knowledge and bashing the person for the keys :P And i doubt many people would have enough knowledge to get past an alarm/immobiliser (dick smith sell radar scanners for codes for immobilisers.. these should be banned i think. thats how people get away with stealing bmw's etc.)

whilst on the topic of video footage.. im thinking of getting the digicam out and getting some doooriiiftooo action onto cd :D Ill edit all the number plates and faces if need be.. im just waiting for my welded 4.1:1 diff and 14' stockers :P And then you can see a stock.. 'ish' R31 Auto RB30 drift... i should submit a form to Ripleys believe it or not..

why the negativity? a dentpuller is a tool used by panel beaters to pull out dents from cars.. (and this is a car forum :D) it is a long bar with a screw up one end, and a handle up the other. There is a big weight that slides up and down the bar, which can be thrusted back (after being screwed into the lock) and make just about any ignition shit itself.. it is also commonly known as a slidehammer and can be purchased from any marlows for $30 :( max

Basically..

If i seen you and you had an immobiliser, all i would have to do is just run up to your car, screw the dentpuller in the door, BANG, door lock out, open, ignition, BANG, ignition out, start and whalla.. because you are going through the ignition, there is no steering lock, and if you do this in under 30 secs, then the immobiliser doesnt come on, and if you stall the car, it doesnt come on, and if you leave the car, just dont turn it off on. I really shouldnt be giving this information out, as it could be used to steal my car :D But since people are worried about their cars so much, buy an alarm with NO delay.. none of this 30 seconds bullshit. Still, a well prepared thief can steal anything. The only foolproof method is get a laser cut key thingy.. only that specific key will work, it has electronic shit in it, so that when you bust out the ignition with a dentpuller, it will just trigger the alarm :) A little expensive, but a must have for your R34 GTR 10 second car :D

I was going to study criminology at uni, but ive opted for social work, if you are wondering why i know so much :D

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
