I will admit to looking over my shoulder when leaving my car parked at work today... That's all I'd need

...with a sign on the inside of your window that says, "This car is protected by my pet snake 3 days a week - guess which day!"

its a horrible feeling knowing my pride and joy that i put so much effort and worked so hard for is now gone and by the sounds of it i wont get it back from what ive been told its probably been put in a container and will be shipped somewhere overseas. i wouldnt have a clue what car to get next :(

that's silly. Of course you do.

The exact same kind! Although perhaps not mp3...somethi boring and unremarkable. Like white for example :) works for me!

id love to get one again but im so scared now. but i cant think of anything else with that kind of power and handling capabilites around the same price or a bit more.

that is just unbelievable... absolute scum.

they will have definitely scouted your car. have you sold any second hand parts from your current or old car lately? told anyone new where you work?

try to post any details possible about the tow truck, there is a good chance that will appear again somewhere.

i cant recall, but i havnt sold any parts only buying parts. the thing is it could have been anyone working at the shopping centre its a big place for all i know one of the trolley collector guys could be in on it.

there isnt really any great details on the tow truck other than it was a white flatbed tow truck with nothing on it but it did look old and wasnt really in great condition and it had no number plates, the police have footage of it.

This might seem a tad paranoid and all but has anyone else noticed the disturbing trend of SAU forum members having their cars stolen????

We advertise on the forum what we drive, what it's spec's are, what we've got under the bonnet, in the boot and underneather; Lot's of us even advertise where we live down to the suburb, and where we work (without even noticing) perhaps we need to stop sharing so many details publically. I don't think anyone on here would do it but it doesn't stop someone signing up and just watching our posts and virtual garages.

scotty i really hope its found and all is well :(

this might seem drastic but chain the wheels to something like a pylon. like, big f**k off big chains

sounds silly but someone trying to cut through those would definitely look sus and attract attention from people

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
