Screw with the windows first, you mentioned they are an easy way to unlock the car.

No I didn't, I never mentioned how you unlock the car. I simple said due to the windows. However if you look in the DIY section there is a massive thread that gives step by step details on how you can get into a Skyline through the windows and how to get around it. Maybe go post in there having a bitch about it.

Then hotwire the turbo timer, right? Cool, now I'm started.

But damn, I can't get through the steering lock without trying to force it. "Snap" - Ah well, I'll find another Skyline and do a better job next time.

If you know how to hotwire a car, you know how to hotwire a turbo timer. This aint magic. Any kid can do it and if you think it's some sort of secret wake up to the real world. As for the steering lock, I never mentioned that and "snapping" the steering lock is a hell of a lot harder than you may think.

Hence I have 2 smashed cars from people who fail at trying. They thought they knew, but they did not.

That is your problem, not mine. Car security is the owners resposibility. Buy an alarm, park the car in a safer place, deter the thieves. At the end of the day any 5 year old can smash a car window with a brick and rip something out of your car so stop bitching about it to me when I simply tell you a truth. It isn't like I said "If you rub a Skyline's rear quarter panel with your palm anti-clockwise three times all the doors unlock and the car starts".

stop bitching. PM-R33's guide to hotwiring (LOL) was vague at best. i cant believe you're having a go at him over this.

if you think you're going to stop thieves by removing thieving tips from the internet, you're fighting a losing battle. your time would be better spent researching better methods of security.

anyway. HI MELANIE. excuse the chimps. they cant help themselves :(

Lol. I'm fealing like I have exposed some ancient black magic secret on how a vehicle operates. "Fuel plus ignition, NO WAY!!"

Depends what you call having a go. I was reading threads earlier where people are discussing how others deserve to die over their driving habits, or opinions. Read any thread where someone's been pinged for something, I think you'll know what I mean, so draw your line. I personally don't feel I'm 'having a go' - But moreso raiding counter awareness. Apologies if this boils anybody.

^ A good fact, hence both times my cars have been smashed up, and not completely stolen. I immob the turbo timer hence they don't get far. I end up with the bill. Possibly they attempted to follow poorly detailed posts on forums, at best.

If you know how to hotwire a car, you know how to hotwire a turbo timer. This aint magic.

Hence steering locks (by which I mean ignition barrels) are illegal right? Whats the diff between hot wiring a car and a turbo timer? I think you answered that yourself prior.

They didn't brick and rip my car. They gained forced entry, on one car ruined the ignition lock trying to start it, the other they pulled the cabling out from under the wheel (causing decent damage there) and still failed. If only the world was so perfect like yours and they 'did' only brick and rip, I'd at least understand them a bit better. On the same token I'd also know they now have what they wanted, and won't come back unless more stuff ends up in the car.

And again, this is bitching? Really? Look around. Draw a line on bitching. I call this a half decent debate, but you're focusing on the 'flame trolling' side of things and frankly mate, they are non existent from me.

I was going to let this go on my last post but if you want to continue this debate I gladly will.

What has steering locks got to do with anything we are talking about? Steering locks prevent the thief from rotating the steering wheel due to it hitting on the inside of the car...umm yep, your point?

I don't understand this entire sentence. You are telling me that hotwiring a car and hotwiring a car through a turbo timer is the same thing? Didn't I allready make that clear in my last two posts hence I don't understand what the big fuss is about with me mentioning it?

At no point did I draw diagrams or show which wires to put together on a specific car make or model. The question was why was a turbo timer illegal, I explained it and gave a very quick summary. You might aswell ring up Hollywood and debate with them about them showing cars being hotwired in movies since that is essentially the same thing you are doing here.

So obviously they had no idea what they were doing.... so your point is and this relates to me how?

I don't call this half a decent debate since you haven't actually laid out your argument, you are simply drawings straws. You tried to make it appear like I have done something that may increase the chance of theft of possibly a car you own. Pretty sure I proved the 1 million websites on Google showing pictures and video on what hotwiring is and how it all works. I think your point about this type of information being posted on the internet has sailed about a decade ago.

Please continue with a rebuttal, but I feel this is going to go around in circles.

Well I have completely wasted my time. Enjoy your day, do a writeup on stealing cars and breaking the law. If you add how to get away with it, I'll read it.

Until then I'll just keep fixing my property that gets damaged from cowboy thieves who learn how to steal cars off the internet, with poorly described instructions as previously pointed out above.

Thanks for your time,

Lol typical debater. You have no ground on which to stand on so you simply end it at that, but I am glad since this was going no where.

Sorry about my poor instructions, PM some details of people you don't get along with and I will gladly email them a step by step guide on how to break into your R32 and steal it so you aren't dissapointed over the fact some one tried to steal your car but failed :)

    • I sense an out of control build thread coming up lololol. That 450kW goal will end up being 600 to 700kW LOL.
    • Nice, thanks for sharing your progress....that's a pretty long list you are putting into it!
    • Decided to upgrade my pressurised plastic coolant expansion tank for a fancy pants alloy version The OEM versions can get brittle, even the new plastic one I got when I first got the car is a starting to show signs of "stress" I wasn't cheap, but it is basically unbreakable
    • Morning all, I have an RB25DET Neo that's in need of a rebuild. Will need new pistons etc due to detonation damage. Would anyone be able to recommend a shop in Southeast Queensland who I could bring my long motor to for a rebuild? Just want someone who knows RBs and whos built a bunch of them before. TLDR - recommended engine shops for RB rebuild.
    • Gday Thought it was about time I started a build thread! As expected this project has snowballed into a huge financial liability, but unless you’re strong willed and responsible, it’s not a surprise. Background -  My first turbo car was an R32 GTS-4, got my full license and then totalled my Au Falcon a week later, so while trying to sell my RMZ450 dirtbike to buy another car a bloke offered to swap the R32 which at the time I felt like I was ripped off but looking back and seeing prices of those now ($40kish) it was a good deal, I didn’t know enough about these cars to appreciate what I had so sold it before the RB20 blew up. Between here and there, out of 12 cars I’ve owned the note worthy ones are a V8 Lexus SC400 (soarer), a couple of XR6 Turbos and my beloved S15 which I had for about 3 years, picked it up for $12500, repairable write off but she was fine, gun metal grey/pewter and bone stock/unmolested until I got my hands on it. Ended up spending about the value of the car and 280kw, 2 demerit points by the time I got defected and sold it for $14500 (also $40kish in today’s market, rip) Fast forward to the present day, I’m in a much better position financially and daily an MQ Triton (great cars, pipe down Ranger Bois), I cruised marketplace and car sales for a few months looking for another R32, the best deal I could find was an absolute rust bucket half finished project for $12000, until this R33 popped up in Port Macquarie for $18k - unregistered and barely running but decent shape, kept an eye on it for a few weeks and the price steadily dropped, $16k then $15k then $14k, that was the point where I was like shit someone’s gonna snatch this up! It was owned by a young bloke who had big plans but him and his missus just had a baby so smartest move financially for them but big gain for me. So 2 days later I’m towing a car trailer to pick this thing up. Roughly 2 weeks and $3500 later I’m cruising around Newcastle in my beat up R33 all smiles and dose noises! It only needed some basic shit to get it going, coil packs and air flow meter, electrical stuff and all fluids changed, 158k kms and running pretty good, nice smooth engine after oil and coolant flush - when I say coolant I mean it had been filled up with tap water, every gallery and heater element was filled with rust, 8-9 flushes later and still had brown liquid coming out but she’ll be right. The car was painted R34 Bayside Blue at some point but whether it was a cheap job or just not looked after is anyone’s guess, clear coat flaking like sausage roll.  Was rethinking my choices and contemplating life, had it up for sale for $22k - still cheaper than any registered R33 but got little interest, next minute I had an opportunity at work - 6 months overseas for good money, so that was a no brainer, fast forward again and here we are with a 50% finished project. Current Mods - 200ish KW according to butt dyno Was tuned with Apexi PowerFC EBC (old school Greddy Profec)  Stock turbo (more shaft play than a Tinder date gone right) 3inch turbo back Varex muffler  Aftermarket injectors of mystery size, Power FC showed 36% duty cycle at full boost so not behd good size Someone had good intentions but stuck with the stock R33 MAF so we had misfires at 6000rpm due to the MAF hitting 5.2V So far I’ve redone the entire interior with carpet form Car Mats Direct, new Seats and steering wheel from Autotechnica, also sound system by Autobarn (mainly Kicker) Also MCA pro comfort coil overs - Hands down best purchase yet, worlds of improvement over the tired 30yrold shocks Goals - 450kw/600hp on flex tune New paint job - Midnight Purple 2 Engine is at the shop getting rebuilt with forged rods a pistons, new valves and springs, ATI Harmonic balancer, Aeroflow 7.5L sump, rear head drain and oil restrictors as per oil control thread* and cam covers modded for larger breathers, other stuff I can’t recall of the top of my head Parts purchased and to be installed once the engine is done -  Engine loom from Wiring Specialties including these options: Haltech Nexus S3 R35 Coil pack conversion  PRP Dual Trigger kit Fan controller  Other Parts -  262 Kelford Cams Turbo - Hypergear ATR43SS3-ProS with T51R mod (whistly boi) 6 boost manifold (high mount) 50mm Turbosmart Pro gate (plumbed back for legal reasons) HKS Super Turbo Exhaust with High Flow Cat Custom 3.5inch dump and front pipe 1500cc Bosch injectors  Fuel Pump walbro 525 Haltech MAP and IAT sensors Haltech Flex Sensor Fenix Radiator with dual thermo fans LS1 Alternator Kit Oil Filter Relocation from EFI solutions and Cooling pro oil cooler Many other things sitting in my garage waiting for that engine to come back.
