hey guys just last night i was at a friends place who lives up north and as i left i realised someone had tried to break into my car ~_~;; the entire section behind the driver side window was pretty much ripped out and had marks all over it from repeatly jamming something into it. Recently i have seen on these forums toooo many people having their cars stolen/torched i guess i am a lucky one since i still have my car with minor dmg. anyone have any good solutions that can reduce this bs.... i mean stuff steering locks? other things that may help? or possible a good alarm system?

thanks

I know I sound like a broken record, but anyone who owns a Skyline and doesn't have an alarm deserves to have it stolen and just causes all our premiums to be sky-high.

MINIMUM should be a decent pager alarm (so you get notification from up to 1km if anyone even goes near your car), with 3/4 immobilisation points, a kill switch (I have 2), AND a Club Lock. I believe the Club Lock is the MOST important, as more often than not thieves will see it and think "too hard" and move on to the next car.

You mean to say that you never considered an alarm before to deter theives?

Keep a f**king big dog in the front seat

I can also be employed to sit in the front seat, with my masculine frame and bulging biceps, i assure you theives wont be a problem.

+1 to alarm

2 or 3 point alarm - you are mad if you have any sports car without one, and your insurance might drop for it as well.

Plus get a huge snake to sit on the parcel shelf, it will keep it warm and it can eat rogue flies...

the other day my alarm went off the car is in a lock up carport with a door too the house i went screaming out only to find my dog was locked in the carport somehow and his barking had set the alarm off didnt think it was quite that sensitive . but he as a loud bark and i guess it echoed in the carport .

mind you if it had been a thief and the dog was there i would pity them our german shepard has a thing about people he doesn't know :-)

Im with Crawler, If you drive a skyline a good alarm is a must. Black wire, battery backup, 3pt immobilisation, shock sensors NOT JUST glass break, pager... ect ect...

and if you MUST have a timer get it built into ur alarm module don't have a standard pen gredyy or apexi one. Its giving the theives everything they need in coloured wires nice and easy to get to.

Sounds exactly like what happened to my old 32 in the Northern suburbs (TTG/Mobury area)

Except they caused nearly 5k damage trying to get in.

a good alarm would of gone off with them tampering with your car

used in conjunction with a brightly coloured club lock in your hand to beat them with it

I like your thinking Steve!

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
