Thanks to some low life scum who decided to break into my car and did a half ass "attempt" to steal my ride. First they busted my door so now I have to get in via the passanger side. Then they "tried" to start it up, but in the process busted the ignition barrel.

And all for what? NOTHING! They took absolutely NOTHING! :P

They noticed the Apexi RSM and PFC handset because they opened the glovebox and left it on the passanger seat, but still took..... NOTHING! Not even the coins or the stereo!!!! :confused:

So now my car is at my uncles getting the the barrel ignition and door lock fixed. Chances are that it won't be dont till next week.

thats a weird one ... maybe they got chased away by someone?? ... anyways the other night some **** took my boot lock cover .. ffs why the **** would u want to take something like that ... ****in jobless brainless dickheads ... if i ever catch one of these ****s ... i'm sure they will be visiting a hospital ...

Does a club lock work these days? Surely putting a club lock on would deter the thieves that little bit more?

I think every little bit helps...

All you're doing is slowing them down really, and stopping the joy riders...

If a professional theif wants your car, they're going to get it. It's as simple as that.

I wouldn't over-estimate the tenacity of professionals. *Some* will take it regardless, but there are a lot of "professional" thieves that will be not so much thwarted by complicated security measues but just find an easier target instead.

So to all of you guys out there without alarms and club locks - please don't get them, and make sure you park near mine if you see it! :)

My dad installed a Mongose alarm/immoboliser system. Don't know what model though. I also had the clublock on.

Actually, they did take something. Went back and checked and looks like they took my Oakley sunnies.

But yeah, I kinda figured they were disturbed. I'm not going to go into the whole "If i find out who did it" business. I'm a believer in karma. I'm rather it was an amature that did this than a pro cause the car would've disappeared for good!

Silver - if it makes you feel any better - my long weekend has been ruined too....

R33 still in workshop.......

No Drift day (already paid for) (Sat)

No Dyno day (Mon)

No Track day (Mon)

Friggin modified cars......

Thanks fellas for trying to make me feel better. I'm over the shock now. Just want it back on the road so I can get rid of it.

It was strange how they didn't break the clublock. It was intact when I looked at it. Alarm wasn't screaming when I saw it though they security guard did say they heard it. They looked but nothing looked wrong on the outside so they thought it was a faulty alarm. The b@stard/s didn't do much damage on the outside. They popped the door handle cleanly. The mess was the ignition.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
