Invest in one of those microwave sensor things... you know, the ones which beep when someone walks close to your car?

I've got one installed and it sends a little message to my remote for the alarm. It's very handy! I was in marion a few weeks ago and my remote was beeping in my pocket, so I quickly walked out to the car and found they took all 4 of my BBS tyre pressure cover things (those things you unscrew when you pump up your tyres). I wasn't impressed! But they left 1 on the ground near the car. They must have gotten a shock from the car beeping at them!

Sure they can't stop someone from breaking into your car, but at least it can warn you of what's happening when you're away from your car!

Wait a second... they drove away? (I assume in a car). And I'm pretty sure your bro got their rego... I don't think they'll be trying to steal another skyline any time soon.

What makes you think that car theives would be driving their own car or that the number plates on the car they were driving even belong to that car ?

In such cases, having their rego doesn't mean jack.

Wouldn't it be more likely that any getaway car used by car thieves would likely be a stolen car or a car with stolen plates on it ?

The thing that shits me off about break-in is the way they break in and if they fail to steal the whole car - it leaves you with the damage bill which usually isnt worth claiming insurance for but still enough to shit you off and leave a dent in the wallet. :dry:

Which can be balanced out by the hospital bill you can give them :D

car they rokd up in was stolen as well so no help there with the rego.

there are btr ways than an alarm to protect ur car. quick release boss kits are one, no steering wheel means they arnt goin very farr. an there are many other ways that COST nothin but time to insure ur car dosnt go missing

hmm, that's bad news Kahli...........don't suppose your brothers managed to catch one or as Cubes said, get a number plate?

The damage on your car stinks but could've been worse I suppose.

yeah could of looked like my car did when someone tried breaking into it haha 5k worth of damage done to mine :) heres a pic of my door handle

wish there was some sort of way that we could electrify our doorhandles....

hope you or someone catches these little pov bitchies and lays the smack down :)

very true heslo

sucks to see/hear that imports are major attraction to these low life scums

my mate was calling shannons to just get a quote on a 33 gtr

and he was told that skylines are in he top 3 with wrx's for being the most target car

UNFORTUNATELY... you cant use lethal tactics against the scumbag criminals. You have to call the police and await for them to come to your aid........ as soon as they finish handing a few defects along the way :rofl:

    • So yes. All of them. Something like 98% of all fuel in the USA has 10% ethanol: https://afdc.energy.gov/fuels/ethanol-fuel-basics It's labelled as like, AKI, 87, 91, 93 with an E10 or E5 or E15 label on the pump. At a certain point, it's not just "E10" instead of 91. It is 91, 95, 98, and all of them have 10% Ethanol in them. You can also get E85 and E30 which is why you do see some people rolling around with E30 tunes in them.
    • Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?
    • Should have asked what is the car?
    • I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
    • Hey guys,  Way back when (about 15yrs plus), I picked up a beautiful set of Tein 'Super Racing Spec Circuit Master RE' coilovers from Russman. I have legit never fitted them to my car, as it was garaged indefinitely while i bought a house Yada Yada. They look brand new! Anyway its time to pick up where I left off, and have started doing some khanacross and am booked in for a hill climb next month. The car has some hard af Nismo shocks in ATM, which has me wanting to upgrade again, and now I am left wondering if it's worth having these teins rebuilt? I think they where an ok shock back then, but how do they compare to what's on the market now?  Shockworks/mca are 2800+, and I am sure they are great. But if I can have these rebuilt and be better than, say, a set of bc's for around the cost of bc's, I would be happy with the performance v cost trade off.  If they are considered outdated and rubbish these days, so be it, I'll put them on the shelf and be happy to look at the pretty green colour while I save for the SW/MCA option. Grateful for your thoughts on the matter, and suggestions on who could do the rebuild if it's a worthwhile pursuit.  cheers, Rowdy.
