now that you told the world what to expect in your car !!!! , the crims can plan the disable of your GPS ...geez

when will people learn do not discuss what is in your car , alarms wise on forums !!!! not too wise

yes even gps can be foiled in a big hurry if you know its in the car.

I rigged up a hydrogen bomb to mine. Lets see the f**kers disable that.

-D

I think now is another time to get a free plug ...

SAU-SA club members get 10% discount at places like Autobarn Mile End, Ministry of Bass, Auto Perfection etc etc (hope I didn't miss anyone) and these guys stock and fit alarms!

Even if you don't want to join the club ... get an alarm anyway at the abovementioned installers.

And sorry to hear about your loss ... hope it turns up in some salvagable condition.

so many assumptions about security especially from admin and moderators, would expect the members to be that way and the moderators and admin to be helpful, yet its the opposite...the irony. Thanks to the person that pm'ed and those that posted helpful advice. I will be scanning, seaching and following up till my last breath.

Hang on - you joined up on SAU to whinge about your stolen car ffs. NOT to be a part of the community, not to help anyone else out, not to be part of anything .... except ask people's help and expect them not to be critical of a car that is uninsured and presumably unalarmed, presumably left out the front of someone else's house - then stolen.

Excuse us for pushing the point that if you don't have an alarm you deserve to have your car stolen, and by not having an alarm you personally cause all of our premiums to go up at next renewal "x"%, due to the additional ABS stat that shows Skylines do, if fact, get stolen.

Clearly if you did have an alarm, kill switches, and a Club lock, but THEN had your car stolen, you would have cleared that point up with us. So we assume otherwise.

If you did have all those things, then my heart truly goes out to you .... we all know that cars still can get stolen despite the best security - which is why even with all my security measures if I HAD to leave my Skyline somewhere unfamiliar I would park another car behind it, or at least pull the fuel pump fuse so they couldn't start the thing. And yes, I really would. When I had my old R34, which did have all the forementioned security items, when I parked at pubs to go play NPL Poker, EVERY TIME I parked at one of the pubs I popped the bonnet and removed my fuel pump fuse. I even purposely blew the same colour fuse and replaced the real one with a dummy - so even if they towed it a short distance and couldn't get it started it looked like the fuel pump fuse was still in there and good.

So clear it up right now, did it have an alarm? Kill switch? Club lock? Was it parked in a garage or on the street?

Have you heard me winge?.... I believe I asked for help. The only thing I have to winge about is your comments. Why should I tell you what security it had, so you can substatiate your assumptions and blunt comments..?. But your right, ive been building cars for 12 years and im stupid enough to have no alarm, no clublock, no anything???... yeah right. Clearly you dont want more people to join your community because with people like you cutting others down like you are, why would anyone want to? What difference does it make as to what terms somebody joins, it shouldn't.....

Im sorry you now need to pay $5.00 more on your insurance, but frankly it gives me a mild amount of satisfaction that im costing you money.

Your extremely rude, reply with whatever you want to justify your comments but Ive got nothing left to say to you. :down:

Stuff the steering wheel, If I get the car back ill give the person that leads to or finds the car 25% of the sale cost. Any percentage of somthing is better than 100% of nothing :down:

Shotgun your steering wheel - if you receive the car back in anything less than 1 piece and want to part it out.

I should rephrase that, i dont think anyone wants the sales cost...sale value :down:

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
