2 weeks ago some C$%T ripped the "S" off my car when i parked it at Monash uni... and as if that wasnt bad enough (ok $25 for a new one) on Saturday night another degernerate piece of bacteria stole the nissan badge from the boot... Now that one really pisses me off because i have a series 1 r33 and the badge matches the colour of the car.....

I just wanted to know how many of you out there have been subject to the same experience as me and if the rage i feel is natural. I have been deeply considering buying a nice powerful rifle, re-badging my car and waiting in a tree for a few nights to get me some retribution!!!!!

that sucks man - thats just one of many reasons why i dont like parking my car in any public car parks etc...

from your avatar it looks like your car is black - did you have a nissan boot key lock badge thing that was black and a clear coat over it like this one:

If so i sent that one back to Mark Gibbsons (?) panel house in queensland because it was the wrong one... he charged me $45 + $8 shipping for it, you can replace it yourself by taking the locking barrel out of your existing one and putting it in the new one...

I remember many moons ago, Honda badges were hot items for low life like this to rip off...a friend of mine had his Honda badge stolen and also his rear high wing spoiler ripped off the boot...leaving bumps on the boot uneven where the spoiler was. - was kind of funny thinkin back...

Some eeediot even took my woman's chrysler badge!?...loser of a low life dint even do a good job...only managed to rip 80% out and the rest are still stuck to the bonnet. If dipstick like that have half a brain, they would know a Chrysler badge is worth less than jelly beans.

I dont see the point of taking badges, they are worthless after u force it out and they cant reuse it anyway.. :D

See this thread on the info meshmesh gave me on how to replace it - its quite easy

Thanks for that i will definately have to do it soon, but i am considering leaving my car badgeless and getting a new front grill without the space for a badge, at least until i finish uni at the end of the year!

i would be happy to replace badges my car got keyed on every panel needs to be fully resprayed .how about a group buy on those high powered rifles. (evil laugh)

That is the worst thing i have ever heard.... i am again filled with merderous rage!

the optimist in me says : "at least now you have an excuse to paint it the colour you always wanted"

but yeah check this one out:

only $1,500 on GunBroker.com

Bad luck man, join the www.mybadgesgotstolenatMonashUni.com club.

Its really cool, i got to become a member a few months ago when some fu(k3r stolen my GT badges at clayton campus. :rofl:

well, i don't know if im trying to go one better, but i have NO badges AT ALL ! just the dirty outline and slight paint discolouration where they USED to be.... No 'S', no GT badges (probably the only ones i miss) and nothing on the back but the embossed section between the lights - Would've taken a big knife to get THAT mofo off !! :rofl:

(and BTW, im still looking for a set of the side GT badges, where do yous guys get them ?)

    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
