Yeah. It's getting ridiculous now. So much theft going on.

One dodgy neighbour is all it takes.

A mate in Carnegie had his car broken into recently...for the second time...the thief only stole the remote gate opener. Obviously so they can come back for the car or more break ins.

There's no way I wouldn't insure a car in one of these carparks.

Yeah apartments just not safe these days either, cameras pretty easy to get by just covering up

My car is like 1 meter behind where my head is when sleeping and bike is about 4 meters all locked up so hopefully I'd hear if anything dodgey going on.. still insured doe. If not home could just walk in with bolt cutters snap bike steering lock off / pick up front wheel onto a trolley and wheel it out.

Do peeps selling skylines just leave them at the station now to get payouts?

I've seen stolen bikes in apartment complex's bolted to the ground with one of those 'unbreakable' chains - grinder marks on the floor and it was gone lol.

he had alarm imob and such.

so guessing they broke the steering lock and as the parks are upstairs put in neutral and rolled it down to the ground and on a truck.

ballsy move as he basically lives opposite the st kilda rd police station.

Problem is no one but the owner and people who know it's the owner's car would stop them...if anyone even dared to ask what they were up to they'd just say towing it to be repaired and no one would question it.

If only the scumbags put their brains into something honest.

at current interest rates, a $100 a day junkie could afford to pay the interest on an $850k mortgage....

think about that

I'm entirely OK if my car got stolen or written off, which means it is the most secure car in the universe.

So much so, some people broke into my Camry (why, I don't know), and flattened the battery (again, really not sure how.. it starts) and left my wallet on the passenger seat where I had accidentally left it because... I'm lucky?

    • Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.
    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
