This is really driving me paranoid , hearing about all these skylines

going missing in the west...

All you can do is have insurance & pray your car don't go missing...

And be Vigilant...

sorry for bein lazy n multi quoting but those are my exact thoughts.

neway, living n the west, off a half ass busy road, i gained a some skill, call it whatever, to keep my ears well operating while im snoozing..(thats just built up paranoia stacking ontop of each other) my ears get accustomed to certain tones of exhausts from other imports, including other holdens n such. i can tell 90% of the time if a certain ute or van/rb/turbo/import with exhaust/holdens w/5,5.7&6 / w/ or w/out xhaust&stractrs, if they're living around the area or just visiting. yeah i know.. its pure utter madness really.

more than ready for it when that slight confrontation ever occurs though. gunna take some bullets to drop this kid.

nuff jabber,

sorry to hear that brother, ill keep my eyes and ears out.

Alarm, alarm, alarm!!!

Boys we need to take a bit of responsibility ourselves as you do have to realise that our cars are highly attractive to lowlife peasant fu<kwits so you gotta put an alarm on it!

I'm even going so far as to put 2 GPS trackers in mine. 1 in the front, 1 in the back so if they're smart enough to find one hopefully they think that's it! You can get them off Ebay for about $100 for a really good one that has live tracking via computer or smart phone.

A $400 alarm (with immobilser) and $200 worth of GPS trackers are a small price to pay to protect our highly sought after cars IMO.

I'm so paranoid about mine that I even check to make sure no one's following me when I turn off the main road!

Then like Novus above I've got a 4 foot negotiator bar and massive Maglight just inside the door to beat the shit out of anyone that still thinks it's worth trying!

I'll keep an eye out too but don't like your chances.....

yeah my alarm goes off if someone looks at it strange, get a good install and decent alarm.

i put in a tilt sensor for like another $50 also in case they just try to tow truck it.

alarm is just a deterrent. If they really want it they'll take it, remember the GTR that got put on the flatbed at Airport West shopping center. I will keep an eye out on way to work from Hillside to city mate and when I'm out at water gardens etc.

This is making me sad, i always garage my skyline but i have no alarm fitted or anything fitted yet, i will be buying a gps tracker by the looks of it as too many nissans are being taken in the west :/ my first 2 skylines got stolen, my first skyline got recovered (dumped at a lake) and the theifs never got caught, the cops have an idea of who it is but can't 100% confirm. and my 2nd skyline have't heard anything.. got taken on the side of the street in front of my mates house, with blown clutch and had immobiliser..

because my skyline is in the garage my honda will have to stay outside... but who steals a honda..

I don't get why people don't have an alarm, decently installed... Stops all of this for less than $400!

If it's installed correctly rather than "generically", you have to put it on a flat bed to steal it basically. More than just a deterrent if done right

      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!
