need some help

i locked my key in the car ( car is still running ! )

running the car dry cant be good for it ?

anyone know a locksmith in melbourne ?

how much is going to cost me to open it ?

if its an R32 or R33 and its still running, then just push the rubber back from the top of the door, get a coathanger or something in and flick the window down button to roll the window down, so you can get in and turn the car off/unlock the door.

duh?

THANKS ALOT MATE

cant believe i did not think of that

you saved my night

CHEERS

Anyone else wonder why there is a "STOLEN" thread every fortnight? Admitiably I did it too (Not with the car running luckily) but even luckier it was at Autobarn, had Bob and his whole team at Moorabin out there trying to open my door

Just FYI: I got qouted $100 do open my door from a lock smith...I was extremely pissed since my lock-pick was in my car, but if your with RACQ you get if free a few times every year

Actually its legal to have as long as they are in your own property (House, car, etc...) you just not allowed to have it on you in public (Unless you have a license obviously)

Just so you know, items like that being in your car doesnt count, got sent to court earlier this year for having a knife in my car :)

Was is a small pocket knife or something? I know if the blade is under a certain length (I think it's like 4 inches) its considered a "concealed weapon"

yeah i used to work at the market joint, had a stanley knife in my car, cops was freaking out about it.

Thats ridiculous I keep a Stanley knife in the back of my cars tool box....probably should go take it out

lol.... i meant how to break into skylines

Hamish does have a valid point although something that really stumps me is why isn't an alarm system the first thing you get when you buy your pride an joy? ~$400 protection for your $12,000+ investment sounds pretty reasonable to me

yeah, flicking the window down button only works if the car has the key in the ignition and it's turned to ON. and if you're silly enough to park your car like that on a day to day basis then maybe having your car stolen isn't gonna be the biggest worry in your life.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
