Guys, now i am worried.

I park in on the road rather than the in the station so cars coming pass can see it and anyone trying to break in.

I guess I will have to collect my car now and drive into work... damn petrol and parking costs.

I didn't wanna put the wind up ya bro but I'd hate to see that ride get ganked by some dole bludging, crack smoking, flannel shirt wearing, skank riding, car stealing, no respect having mother phuccer.

man - what world are you living in?

neighbourhood watch died years ago pretty much, its not very active..

My friend's 1986 MAGNA complete rubbish car (worth about $300 at most) was broken into at Blackburn station.. broad daylight. There wasn't even anything to steal, but they still broke in..

time to start reading and learning

btw: all my previous facts were wrong (see above) :D but never park your skyline at a station or shopping centre. Even just the risk of vandalism by some jealous punk kid.

True that... .now i need to install a spy camera hidden in the car!

Yeah, that'll help you catch the little SOBs and allow you to break their legs. However, you'll still need to get the damage repaired.

Personally I'd rather catch the train than risk damage to my Loved One.

Car saved!!!

Wardest> I owe you one.

Prolly happens all the time... i have left my car at the same station and same spot for 2years and only thing that has happened is I have been badged. That was when I had my Type-R.

Well better be safe than sorry.

i remember reading once that a large % of car theft and breakins are from train stations... Bit silly to park any car there, never mind a nice 34

you're best off buying an unregistered crapper for $200 and driving to the station every day i think..

which is why I walk to the train station :D

i never leave my 34 in these types of places - luckily I have a choice to walk - its about 12mins each way but its better than risking losing the car, or even a broken window and stolen stereo!

At least nothing has happened to it CR34TION!

I have heard that train station operators have [and still are] been beefing up their security / cameras etc...but still not good enough.

Car theft is actually down this [financial] year to under 100,000 an all time low in the past decade I think!

neighbourhood watch died years ago pretty much, its not very active..

not in my area it hasnt. my alarm went off a couple of weeks ago and my neighbours were out in under 15 seconds to see what was happening.... i love my neighbours..... , fortunately it was me at my car trying to get in as the battery in my remote had died. :) all fixed now though :D

yeah we still get newsletters from NW as well, complete with crime reports and stats for the area - my neighbours are pretty good too!

One of them is 3rd Dan [black Belt in] Karate, so a would be thief would certainly get a surprise :)

:D

hahaha :bahaha:

There was a real nice clean yellow R34 just parked down from Sandringham station and couple of Friday nights ago. Bout 3am, stumbled out of the Sandy and had a real good look. Real nice, clean as, looked very shmick.

Lucky u weren't there Wardest, some drunken teenager with his face almost pressed up against the window of a R34 GT-T, would have been a beat down!! :)

Anyone know of any Sandringham'ites or Bayside ppl with a stock yellow R34? No stickers, so may or not be a SAU person

Man our Skylines do attract alot of attention no matter where it is. But parking in or near a train station is pretty scary man. There are high school kids, weirdo etc, etc. If it doesn't get stolen, it could get damage by some young smartass.

Let start a Skyline Watch haha. Everyone just stick a SAU sticker on and join the SKYLINE WATCH hehe

Hey Creation,

I used to park my r33 there too. And I must admit, I was a little nervous too. I mean I agree that as for train stations, it was probably a safer one, in comparison to others......(yes I know thats an oxymoran) but at the end of the day I wasnt comfortable in leaving my pride and joy there.

Oh well, I have to say, I always noticed your car sitting along the road and I did also notice it going missing in recent times. At first I thought to myself, phuck, somebody's taken it.

Great to hear that it still safe.

I might also invest in a SAU sticker as well. skylineakt, a SAU watch sounds like a great idea, so that at least we can help watch each others backs............hmm, where's that street weapons.net link...... :(

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
