For anyone reading this and also to the original poster, speak to Chris from Audio Express. They can fit a decent quality TK104 GPS Tracker.

They aren't expensive and you will be able to find the car even up to 60 days after the car has had its battery removed. You can ever send an SMS to the device to tell it to shut off the fuel pump, sound horn, lock/unlock doors all via sms.

Welp, I might be the luckiest guy alive. The police have recovered the car and it is on its way to Chris at audio express today to get sorted...I really hope they catch the prick, aparently they have a good idea of who and its for more then just my car. Although I havent seen it yet so I have no idea what shape its in the police said it looked to be in good shape. I just hope the parts I picked up last week are still in the boot

thanks to all the well wishers

Get info so we can organise a special thank you to them for assisting with the returning of your car. :thumbsup:

dan,

yet to check if its at the shop or not.(he rang me this morning and I told him to send the towie my way and drop the key off to it.

I will look at it tomorrow.

this car will also be used for the tech night on security as it will show the people there how the thing was stolen.

I will call you tomorrow re tracker - there is a fair bit more to it than that.

Tech night?

  • 2 weeks later...

I pity the idiot that tries to take this car..

10 layers of security and 6 of those are VERY transparent and REMOTELY controlled.

those that were at the tech night will have some inkling of what I am getting at.

definitely a rave..

last thing a thief wants is attention - they will CERTAINLY get that.

dan kent,

about to send you a few useful images - call me when you get them.

    • 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.
