With all the reports of Skyline's being stolen left, right and centre, it's easy to lose track of where it is actually happening. I'm more of a visual person and had some time to kill, so I made a map of all the Skyline's that have been stolen in the past two years from reports on this forum. This map is just an indication of the areas where cars have been stolen in the past and may be served as a cautious warning/reminder for anybody living in or parking in those areas or surrounding suburbs. Take care of your cars and maybe invest in a decent GPS tracking system if you are really concerned!

Good idea...but if you use the search function, you'll see there are already plenty of threads about the west/north suburbs and fun-filled activities you can do within them :P

Lovely thread but, cars can get stolen ANYWHERE, all you have to do is to buy a insurance. So you're covered when your car is stolen.

Simple really. No use in being paranoid.

Not that simple. Sure you might get your money within a month, but how long is it going to take to find that perfect car? After my first GTR got stolen i had to wait just over a year until one that had all the shit i wanted on it popped up. So i'd prefer it not to get stolen this time.

I'd rather having insurance and searching forever for 'perfect' car than not having insurance at all...

That way I'm able to sleep at night knowing I'm covered.

That's just me, you can put security system to shame Fort Knox and someone will find a way to steal it, unfortunately it's the way it is nowdays.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
