Wow, sorry :(

Thanks, it's so hard seeing your car disappear from you one night in mint condition .. then 5 days later end up with pictures like this :(

..and to think i used to worry about parking the car and getting the doors dinged by randoms... laugh.gif

Im Sorry to hear about ya ride ...

With the amount of Imports that have been stolen lately, maybe someone should make a "SA Stolen Car Thread".

Friggn Thieves Piss Me Off.

Its ridiculous how many imports have been stolen and tortured in the last couple of months. f**king crazy. Now i wonder if the cops are really doing their jobs. Stop f**king defecting cars and catch these f**kers arrrrgh

I agree with Mad-az.

So true, insult to injury.

But tbh there has to be a small niche targeting Imports - anything that helps to either catch or detour may help.

At the end of the day if they want it they will get it. But god-damn im sure it would throw a spotlight either way on what IS happening.

The fuel pump relay is a nice idea in theory, but in reality, any car thief worth his salt knows that trick and will likely carry a couple assorted relays with him.

Same with re-setting the 'park wire' in an auto, if they're capable of defeating an alarm and hot wiring a car, they're capable of sorting that out.

An extra physical deterrent will work better, a big f**k off club lock, a detachable boss kit with a locking hub, shit like that. While both of those can be defeated (a club lock very easily with the right tools), it adds a lot of extra time and difficulty. On top of that there's the fun things like piezo electric sirens in the cabin belting out enough noise to rival a jet on take off... And while that too may be defeated, at the very least it'll f**k up their hearing pretty good, and pretty damn quickly.

^^ out of curiousity about those sirens

would you be in any trouble if someone were to get hurt from that while breaking into your car?

as in, in the same way you can be blamed for someone breaking into your propery then hurting themselves on something

would suck if that were possibile, the wankers would totally deserve it

Surely a good car theif would wear ear plugs during the time the alarm is likely to go off too :/

Nah, cause they have the option of running away. If they don't, they're putting themselves in harms way.

-D

You'd be surprised.

The pitch and the noise will do a pretty good job of overpowering off the shelf ear plugs anyway.

    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
    • That's one of the reasons I got that breed, they look weird, the other reasons are they small, they are very vocal, and run around like they are on crack, I didn't want a breed that just sits around, these two are like kids on red cordial  My daughter has one, and it's a laugh riot, constantly doing Parkour around the house, sits on her shoulder, plays catch, and constantly runs around the house taking turns chasing the dog around, her Bermese though, just lays around with constant bitch face, and just looks on in utter disgust at the cat and dog playing together 
    • I'm getting PTSD flashbacks seeing that name again.  With my turbo swift, I got 1,500km of street use on a Jim Berry clutch before it exploded and took out my input shaft with it.
