a couple of weeks ago i was parked outside my bedroom window and at exactly 6am wednesday my alarm went off.

i ran outside naked lol and chased the guy down cross road but lost him in the back streets. when i got back to my car this is what i found :D.

keep in mind these photos where taken after the cops dusted for finger prints.

they bent the steel out on the drivers door handle, damaged the rear left quarter under the window (trying to pop out the window) they also stuck something into the boot lock, then they tried to pop the passanger door handel out and tried sticking something between the door and the panel and tried to bend the door out, and in the end they smashed the passenger window and took off when i came out to kill them. and thanks to pearce crash repairs it only cost me $400 to fix it all cos im to lazy to do it myself.

and the new window came courtesy of Z IMPORTS-wally is the best.

that's horrible man, glad it's sorted now though.

By the looks of what they've done though, they can't have been that bright. As trying to pry off a door handle would work to open it, but just take far too long, and they probably would have gone through just as lengthy a process trying to start the car

thats almost exactly like what happened to my car. the tried to pop the rear window out on both sides and ripped my door handle out, bent all the seals etc.

what area was this in? ttg or modbury way?

the cops wouldnt even come out to have a look at my car yet there were finger prints everywhere. your pretty lucky!

sorry to see about your car though!

Similar to what happened to my car once, although its nowhere near as bad as that... seems like someone was trying to pull out the lock with screwdriver... when the alarm went off he ran away and had to settle for the gt badges, lol...

Directed Electronics dual zone motion sensor ftw. Stops scums before they even try to do any shit to your car.

yeah those were some dumb ass criminals, trying to steal a car that was only 5 metres from where you were sleeping! :D

yeah there are some stuipid people in adelaide ive heard of this guy called dr_hoon45 lol hi chris long time no see

as soon as i read it, thats exactly what i thought too kye :S

glad to hear you got out of it not too bad mate. And lets hope they get whats coming to them soon.

How much that cost you champ?

it only set me back $400 and he even fixed a little dent on the rear right :thumbsup: heres some pics. ill get is sprayed after i throw on a gtr front end

the work that was done included straightening all the primed parts and preping and priming, rebuilding all the locks inlcuding the boot lock (as they were all destroyed internally and i didnt want to have to change the ignition to match the rest), replacing the passanger window which was supplied by wally at Zimports and cleaning all the glass out of the car, all was completed overnight. pearce crash repairs are bloody legends.

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
