Had alarm and insurance.

Good as gone.

Like I've said a thousand times. You can have the best alarm in the world, if a thief wants it, its theirs. Theres no point in arguing or bitching about it :( its a sad reality we live in.

facepalm...dont see how any of that helps getting the car back.

It doesn't - it's just the usual set of questions that gets put into every 'stolen' thread. (And invariably, the answer is 'no, i didn't have one' or 'no, I didnt have an australian standards approved one, so when I didn't arm it, it didn't auto-arm itself..'. I can't think of many recent 'stolen' threads where people had australian standards alarms fitted (and in use) and were still stolen. Worse, it typically pushes up the insurance costs for the rest of us...

Anyways, enough claptrap - good luck in getting the car back; Nobody deserves to have their car stolen. It's a low act.

fn thieves, hopefully they crash it and hurt themselves.. you say theres insurance so thats a good thing

yeah thats for sure... owning an import is just being stupid not insuring it.

no news as of yet but word has spread rather quickly, had random numbers messaging me back the same msg i sent to others! anyways keep a look out, its still out there somewhere.

Has been found yesterday through an anonymous tip.

Few scratches on bumpers and what not, stuffed ignition, they got past the alarm/immob, mechanically it ran fine on to a tow truck... at mechanics now getting a check over for insurance.

Unsure if anyone was caught or not. Thanks to those that kept an eye out :)

Club lock... Best deterant in the world.. i didnt have anything on my car = stolen.. Now everywhere i go and even at home i have the clublock on, has never been touched in 4 years.. Park it all over the place, marion, TTP and at work in complete darkness and nothing.. GET A CLUBLOCK!! If you dont have one and your cars stolen, too bad in my books... They are not expensive! Theres a few ways of getting around a clublock but it takes a bit of time, so even if you do have one, dont leave your car for too long..

even club locks arent gonna stop someone who wants it. if they had enough time to trick the alarm/immob they probably would have had the club lock off in no time if they were that keen. but its definitely a visual deterrant, and another thing to get through before its stolen so definitely worth having one on.

    • Where is the best location for boost pressure source when running mac 3port boost solenoid?  my new turbo does not have a fitting for that on the compressor housing.  how come Garrett make a turbo without that?  im confused 
    • From my memory, which isn't that great, we did have issues getting the large throttle body on my old LS1 to play nicely at idle, first it would stall, then it would only idle at 2k rpm, then it would hang at 2k rpm for a few seconds and then drop and stall, then, finally, the best we got was it would hang at 1.5k rpm for a few seconds then drop to around 800 rpm The tuner stated that large cable throttle bodies are a PITA, and if I wanted anything better than what we ended up with I would need a electronic throttle body and all of the aftermarket ECU stuff to run it
    • So, my intake arrived  I'm not happy with the coating finish so I went to Supercheap and got some black wrinkle paint and some prep stuff I was initially thinking about using grey wrinkle paint, but finding a quality product that gives the texture I want was "unfindable...", so the tried and tested black wrinkle paint is again finding its way into the engine bay for the OEM look I'll sneakily head into work and get the big ovens cranking to cure the paint over the next week or so I've also contacted MX5 Mania today to talk about the install and tune, so painting it is my "main effort" prior to sending the car off In other news, the correspondence from the US supplier is fair to midling to say the least, I'm still trying to track down the intake box thingie with the larger intake pipe to suit the throttle body, it still is "awaiting fulfilment" (no stock currently available), if it isn't here soon I'll just get MX5 Mania to fabricate up a CAI that is easy to service the air filter  
    • Thanks mate. I thought it would be that way.
