Brendan..... a nice CCTV setup does wonders...

if you also have a lockup garage... get a security pole put in the ground with a lock....put the pole in behind the car when u get home.....

Your car wont be going anywhere...

I believe an SAFC can be rigged to do the same...you just need the know how to make an easy adapter.........but then of course they would only need another SAFC.

1. Chain the diff to your garage floor.

2. Like the pole idea...just make sure the sercuity pole has a bolt cut defended.....usually have a cover over the lock and lock flange so they can't get the bolt cutter in to cut the lock.

3. multiple locks on garage door (my perference is to not let them near the car...becuase their going to trash it worse if they can get access but can't actually take it.)

4. Cage the car in....a seprate welded and wire cage for the car in teh garage (I know of this been done.)

5. Another suggestion....is have the car stored if its a weekend driver. Plenty of places ofter 24hour access and 24 hour security. I know when i'm going to get the Evo or GTR its going to be possibltly stored at one of these....especailly with carjacks at the garage these day...you drive you car in and out of security and out home in your daily driver.

plus its probably stored under their insurance if they get broken into :D

6. turn the wheels on full lock and run chains to keep it on full lock...that way it can't move forward and out of a garage.

Cool, I think my cas has an SAFC already in it. Have to wait tho to see. (realistically how many carjacking theiving mofos would have a spare SAFC and time to wire in, with them) And if you had a custom quick release plug/interface (no cloured wires) - It would make it more difficult.

What about one of those wheel cage thingys - like the ones they use when you are parked in a no parking area - to imobalise your car ??

I think also with the PowerFC's you can set a rev limit with the hand controller. therefore when you leave your car drop the rev limit to 500 or something and take the handcontroller. sweet as.

And with the Link you can set the fuel to zero. again won't start.

      Is there a good place to learn how an engine works online?

      Oh ok that makes so much sense. Thanks for clearing it up!

      And these modern "environmentally friendly" EV vehicles also run on the same smoke! When the engine, wiring, or batteries let it escape it also stops running!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Yeah - I found the same information too.. 30% open is like 85% of flow etc. So it's probably going to be minor if not completely imperceptible. I also have a larger pod filter here, will swap that on and see if there's any difference. The hardest part is finding a place to uh, test this. It's quite noticable just how much having ducting to the otherwise completely open pod cools the intake temps down. It's better boxed, or shielded but driving for 30 seconds really makes it plummet to near ambient temperatures. I recall in the past when I was a RB land and had a nice flowing airbox -  - Then I took the lid off and put a pod there, and gained 9 psi of boost and about 60kw from the restriction I didn't know I had - with the controller at same duty cycle. However finding people using over the radiator intakes having similar KPA drops at WOT on built setups makes me think there restriction could be the exhaust or potentially the headers. Either way though, there's no real estate to play with and nothing that can realistically be done about it. The original dyno plot without the airbox, and the larger pod had a better curve. It was later I added the ducting and airbox, and a smaller pod to make it fit in there...

      That's not completely truthful now is it? Any flex fuelled factory cars also had the option to run on steam.

      Yeah so I guess your mechanic would know turnaround better than me....but I would have thought you had access to same day or overnight rack rebuilds there....any big city here in Australia has that service.   There are a couple of o-rings and seals involved, I guess the risk is the part is specific not general. Other option is if you can have it on stands in your garage for a while, steering rack removal is pretty simple (2 mounting brackets, 2 ball joints (separate by undoing the nut to the top of the threads, put a pry bar between the steering arm and control arm to put pressure on it then medium force on the side of the ball joint or top of the nut with a hammer to break it free) and then the trickiest bit is the splines to the steering rack (not too bad to undo, one nut then it slides out, but mark it first so you can reassemble it straight)
