ouch that would hurt even more mate. A lot of cars being stolen, the owners don't seem to have insurance on the damn thing!!!!

And yea it's the misses daily school run car only had it probs a month they had a key for it nothing much u can do

Agree with that but having a insurance means that at least there is a way of getting something back. Not having a go at you mate but having insurance is really handy. The way I see it is no one can stop someone from stealing cars but having insurance means you can get back most of what you lost.

the caster rod looks straight i had to cut the wishbone with a grinder cos it was that bent it bent over the bolt to take the arm off so really i will have to match it with one that is straight also how the hell do you take it off the sub cos all i see is a huge star shaped nut/bolt do you have that tool or am i way off of how to get it out lol

Yeah I haven't taken mine off yet, just dropped the whole frame so I will have a sus when I take it off as I haven't removed one. Pretty sure I have the star shaped tool here if thts what's needed.

stolen keys? previous dodgy owner? something crafty like in gone in 60 seconds? I'm a curious cat! :yes:

There is a way to get a key without jumping thu to many hoops , sadly the manufacture and gov rules provide the details needed

A slack locksmith would cut one !

i wont divulge how its done because to stop the data on your end would cost a bucketload and not practical

And crims dont need any help

There has been a lot of cars nicked with keys and alarm remotes coded lately but the people were arrested over the weekend down south

I still say that nothing beats a secret single or dual action hidden kill switch... Don't even tell your mates where it is hidden/how it operates.

It does not need to be engaged every time but if you are leaving your car overnight or parked when out at a function then turn it on...

They can play with the alarm and immobilisers the ignition or even have a key. Most petty car thief's now how to get around even the best alarms.

with that said it won't stop a determined pro but it will stop the joy riders and low to middle class thief's who take your car and just end up thrashing it and causing medium to minor damage.

If mine was to go I would want a pro to do it... At least then when found, if ever it would be in no condition to be fixed... They are never the same once damaged and repaired :(

How many bogans , meth heads or general scum does it take to steal a car

1 with a towing setup

No amount switches will thwart that

A gps might

A big attack dog maybe

a security gaurd 24/7 doubt it

common sense will stop a fair bit

Cant tell you how many skylines or stags i see parked overnight in extremely bad areas lately

Mostly P 's but not all

A better kill switch is one you cant see a proximity switch behind plastics( touch switch or voice command)

Or close range rfid setup to blow a hidden fuse on a major system if a sequence isnt followed to start it

mutiple layers of security not just 1

The " pro's " arrested had recoded alarm remotes as well so it would have cost some cash to do some remotes are hundreds of dollars?

and had many cars in various states of strip down

they also had the public and a few major companies supporting the operation without knowing it

So it should ease up the thefts down south a tad?? I hope

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
