Really another one? FFS seriously what is the world coming too. With the amount of imports getting stolen/burnt i think multiple kill switches is in order!

Sorry for you misfortune champ. Hope you get it back in one piece for your sake!

Well one positive is the uncommon factor of the paint. I live in flinders park but I have not seen this car around; I will now be looking for it.

The theft of these cars seems to be predominant in the western suburbs but the increasing amount of cars stolen highlights the need to do everything we can to stop it from happening to us. Thats why I have alarm, imobilliser, club-lock, full comprehensive insurance, car behind roller gate and roller door, rev limit set to 1500rpm, keys and documentation in well hidden area, automatic light, recording camera linked to television, car in view from bedroom window and two dogs. If theives can get past all of these, I will shoot them with my crossbow, then ring 000.

I recommend all people who love their rides to follow all these precautions, except for the crossbow! That is just something I am prepared/trained to do if someone comes into my yard and wants my car more than I do..

Hope you get your 33 back the way you left it mate

Those wheel clamp type locks the police use for impounding your car should be made available to the public--I'm sure one of them would really slow a thief down and be a deterrent and be easy to carry on your boot etc and fit to your car overnight?I haven't looked closely at one but from what iv seen they'd be a deterrent--but that said if someone wants something bad enough they usually find a way of getting it..alternatively matty with his crossbow on speed dial :P

there called a DENVER Boot, I know I grew up where they invented them, along with Lidar, the laser the police use.

you can't over ride the boots without a torch and most likely burn the car as well. but its the last thing you want to drag around in your car !!!!

common sense !!! , would you leave your most valuable item(your baby) out for everyone to see and fondle ? that stops most stolen cars alone if you think a second first ?

a multi layered security used 100% of the time even if your 10 steps from the car. set the alarm. ADR approved of course

full comprehesive insurance BEFORE you take the car home on the first day. if you can't afford to insure it.... you can't afford the car !!! now it drives up the rates everytime a skyline is stolen insured or not !!!

then you can go with Biometric scanners(eyes or fingers, facial), RFID(the tags like stores use to make sure your not stealing crap and also used in new keyless cars ) , GPS/3G trackers, etc. not many people know how to install that stuff here but I can point you in the right direction, if your interested ?

really it comes down to another problem, laws dont punish car theft harsh enough ?????

oh man, not another one, and they're getting closer to my area too :( I hope you get it back in good condition Ben, hopefully the rather unique colour will help.

I hate parking mine out in the driveway overnight, but sometimes there's just too many bike parts covering the garage floor to get it back in...

      M35 Aftermarket Fuel Pump

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)

      Wanted to buy R200 longnose LSD 3.9 ratio

      By Ben_D · Posted

      Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D

      Back for more after 18 years - and where are the longnose R200 LSDs?

      By Ben_D · Posted

      Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D

      G35 Control arm and Compression Rods into a V35 Skyline.

      By sonicii · Posted

      Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By Erelyes · Posted

      Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
