quiktrack or brandt.

get yourself a good 3 point immobiliser and if you want to be abit more extravagant, get yourself onto a global tracking system such as quiktrack (however you spell it).

if they steal it after that, good luck to them. thats what insurance is for.

PLEASE your will help would be appreciated thanks :rofl:

Really glad to hear you got it back...but my only advice would be to not park near Norton Street if you can help it. :D

I once parked my Mum's car with my bike in the back, covered with a blanket. Came back ten minutes later and caught a little bastard pulling it out. I'm almost sorry I shouted from a distance, which gave him time to run...

Try a Brant or Autowatch alarm/immobiliser. Anything that insurance companies like...

Isn't even talking about these locations endangering your car further?

If i was a would be thief reading these forums (and I wouldn't even have to sign up to do so.. prankkk).. and I know your car is reguarly parked on xx street.

Just saying. Be careful what you say on here sometimes.

Predator, i agree with you trhere you can never be too careful. (maybe you should have to sign up to view the forums?). Anyway why not get a Boomerang Alaram System, it's got a pager thingy.

If you just want a 3 point immobiliser, forget Brant. They are over priced. You can pay about half as much for a similar 3 point immobiliser from Incar Options in Wetherill Park. If you want a 6 point immobiliser then you will probably have to get a Brant, but expect to pay around $1k for the privilege.

I don't think any thief is going to bother trying to get through even a 3 point immobiliser. If it's going to take more than 5 minutes to hotwire he will just tow it. If it's parked in a garage and the thief *knows* you're on holidays for a few days then even a 6 point one won't save the car.

Like the guys here said, get yourself a good alarm and immobiliser combo and try to park it off the street if possible.

I have also purchased a club lock for my car.... its another detterant that will probably make the car next to yours that doesnt have one look more appealing for a thief that wants to get the job done quickly. The company that manufactires them also usually has some kind of payment (5k I think) guarantee if your car gets stolen. Not bad for a 50 - 150 buck investment.

im surprised most of us here who are insured havent got atleast a 3 point immobiliser? i know that they wouldnt insure me unless i had quiktrack installed, another friend wouldnt insured if they didnt have a brant immobiliser installed.

jimx, what are the 6 points of immobilisation?

Franks, I have no idea. I rang up Brant and they quoted me around $800 for their 3 point one, and $1100 for their 6 point "Nemesis".

my mate recently got a Brant. He enquired about the Nemesis but the installer said that it's overpriced and using "old technology" - the paging system is a little iffy. If anything you'd get it because it is a 6 point immobiliser.

I'm trying to find a Mannix alarm installer as I'm told they're one of the leading alarms in the US.

good to hear you got your car back luck one dude, i had my car broken into about 2 years ago at my works car park i had the brant 3 pt imobalizer (needed it 4 shannons insurance) and it stopped the theives so i recon its pretty good i paid 700 od for it but this was with an alarm aswell i think it was just 450 for the imobalizer.

got a ignition barrel from a wreckers just off newbridge rd just before the bridge to liverpool $75 cant remember what there called or if they still exist,like someone previosly said youll find everthing at just jap. good luck with it

      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

      S15 Spec R

      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!
