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:

    • That's not a transistor --- it's marked ZD1 which makes it a zener diode. As to what the breakdown voltage is, not enough there to divine.
    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.
    • It's almost certainly the same as the one next to it.

    • South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).
