Has anyone noticed that these rats have been stealing only 32's and 33's???

When Brenton stupidly locked my keys in my car (dunno how you do that when it has centrel locking) the locksmith told me that 34's and 35's are the hardest to get into, not because of alarms or immobilisers but due to the internals of the lock; usually I'd think he was talking shit to get more money out of me however after spending ages trying to pick the lock, and getting several other people (some of which I know are quite good at picking locks) to try to pick the lock it still wouldn't budge.

Oh, did you ever get your Mrs car back?

32s are like as easy as a VN bogandore to get in to you dont even need to pick the lock. best thing to do is you no they can get in to it easy enough just make sure they cant start it ie kill switch but make it so it will turn over so it creates noise now if anyone hears a car keep turning over someones going to come looking at this car not starting to which it attracts unwanted attention to the would be thief but being bright orange i wouldnt expect to see this stolen it be like trying to hide an elephants cock in your pants no matter how hard you try its going to stick out a bit.

Hey Charles, i have also locked my keys in my 34 with the window down the smallest amount for the wind/rain guards to cover it. And it was extremely hard to get the car open once again. It took several hours with a lot of noise and effort to pull it off and even still i could not reach the actual internal release. I had to get the keys from the ignition (long story please dont ask how i got locked out) with a coat hanger and used my girlfriends necklace to weigh one side down for more accuracy and so the keys dont weigh to one side and slip off.

So yes i would agree 34's are extremely hard to get into. Have a nice sleep =p

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      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!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      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.
