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:

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
