Will watch out for it Roy... ie. AZ64XY

There was one recently taken too near Mercure/Ibis carpark across the railway.

The ceiling is low, so it had to have been on the back of a towie or someone with sparkie knowhow.

And if YOU, the filth of this earth (reading this) have taken this man's car or...

know who did it, or...

are approached with parts from it...

Remember, until every little piece is returned,...

i) you can't lie straight in bed

ii) do you tell your kids that it's OK so long as you don't get caught and...

iii) the saying, "what does it profit a man to gain the whole world but lose his soul" still applies!!!! :(

Lol wtf, you made 2 threads about this in different sections, I was getting so confused when i saw different replies.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/He...th-t322696.html

Anyways, AS I responded in the other thread:

I would highly suggest you get in contact with the Novotel hotel manager. He/she should be able to tell you how to get in contact with carpark security who would have security cameras around that car park.

As far as I can remember I saw a few in that carpark last time I visited darling harbour.

Found the above in another thread. Don't know if it's any help.

This is the only post I have made...

The only video the car park has shown me is my car leaving the parking garage...

Sorry Roy, the two post part was not aimed at you. I just I found another thread about a car stolen from harbourside and thought the camera info might be helpful.

Are the cameras good enough to get a face picture off? Start putting the dirty pricks face up on every forum you can find. Somone would know who it is because they need outlets to sell the parts through.

That's crazy, James silver car was stolen from the same place on 28/5/10. I called and talked to him for a minute. I feel his pain!

The only thing the video showed was the back of my car leaving the Parking Garage.

The criminals must be watching that garage. 2 GTRs stolen in a little over a months time from the same place.

It makes you wonder if it's an inside job.

Thanks for the link.

It makes me think that having an alarm/immoboliser system seems rather pointless if thieves can get past them that easily :S.

perhaps a kill switch hidden in the car would be a good option? or is that easy for thieves to conquer too?

So sorry for your loss =/.

Seasoned thieves take all of 5 mins to bypass a typical 3 point immobiliser from what an ex-alarm installer told me. He also told me if you can make the scum work for more than 5 mins on your car, they'll likely stop and move on to another car due to risks etc.

I think if they are getting past immobilisers so easily, then a GPS or remote kill isn't going to do much either, as they'll probably find a way to stop the tracking and also cut off remote cabling for the kill switch.

You really just have to hope that your car isn't the one chosen by the thieves, because if they have any brains in them then they will get around anything you do to it, unless ofcourse you make your own special system designed by yourself.

I once knew a friend that had a system where he had to swipe a magnet past his door lock, then swipe it over his radio before finally swiping it infront of the ignition before the car would be completely ready to drive without alarms going off or immobilisers working. He said that the system was designed so that you had to use a magnet and couldn't cut cabling or the alarm would go off straight away and he would get a text to his phone immediately notifying him.

He was a very technology savvy guy though, and he was driving a Maserati with heavy mods, so he really put some months of work into the system, it's never let him down and he says he has gotten texts a few times to warn him someone was trying something and when he went to check the car, they had given up and he just did the magnet swipe to shut off the alarm.

Its a shame he cant go into mass production with them though, otherwise the system would be figured out...

been reading a few of these threads, and its scary how many cars get stolen under their owners' noses... not the fault of the owners of course.

Just wanted to know... would a steering wheel lock be of any help? i'm tempted to spend some money (small amount) to get a steering wheel lock that I can put on my car overnight... at least I can use it to beat the crim if I come across one.

      I transferred from full time service to Army Reserve, so I still have access, work has been super keen to get me in to work in the OPS realm, so just turning up to use the gym......and ovens, isn't causing any issues, apart from me needing to keep on telling them that I won't be doing any reserve days until I get my joint in Goulburn sorted  Basically I can now work whenever I want, for how long I want now, and it's all tax free Next time we have some fires or floods you might see me covered in mud, or cutting sick in some plant equipment cleaning up, the Reserves love getting in the news, LOL

      Final finish outcome of 80°c was typical to the pics, I've turned the oven down to 50°c and will pick them up after the gym tomorrow  The before and after difference was amazing, the wrinkle paint has covered all of the casting marks completely It did take a couple of hours to key it all and get in all of the crevices, but, for me it was time well spent for the final outcome, but I have all the time in the world to do it at the moment  Ended up with 4 coats, each sprayed at different angles to get optimal coverage and thickness As for the fixtures and intake box thingo that hasn't made it, the supplier is apparently posting the fixtures, and, are now sending a different CAI that is in stock The replacement CAI is actually better than what I originally ordered, but will require a pod filter that locates under the front bar, still serviceable, but it basically removes the whole OEM filter box and ducts into the front bar, so filter cleaning will require ramps and the removal of some front bar undertray, not a war stopper, just some ramps and an additional 10 minutes work every few months From looking at it it is made from alloy pipe from the throttle body, through the CAI hole in the rad support, then right turning under the bar, luckily the wrinkle paint was on special and I got 2 cans for $30ish, so the alloy will get the same wrinkle treatment as the intake manifold, hopefully it turns up soon, either way, the car will be getting booked in soon, if the parts aren't here, I'll just get MX5 Mania to " make it work"

      I'm so glad base security is so high. I see they stopped some random codger from being able to just wander in off the street... 😛   PS, intake looks good!

      Is there a good place to learn how an engine works online?

      By RA708 · Posted

      Exactly how each part works and how they all work together to make the engine function. That's all I'd need to do a basic build. Maybe how forced induction works. I probably need to learn some of the maths behind it all as well.
