Hi all,

Some lowlifes broke into my 32 the other night trying to steal her. Little did they know it's not my daily and the battery lives in my shed ;)

So long story short, they ripped the drivers door handle half out breaking the lock from the inside of the door, then stuffed the ignition barrel and broke the steering column housing before realising it was never going to start and bailing.

Has anyone had this happen to their 32 before? How did you go about getting the parts replaced and fitted? did you order everything from Nissan ex Japan or did you source from wreckers before handing over to a mechanic/panel beater? I'm also wondering how I would go about getting the keys to match all locks and ignition again once everything is replaced?

Cheers

What town was it in ?

Sadly you just let them know to bring a battery tonight ? lock it up hardcore now!!

it also sugguests you dont have alarm or non functional

Remember this is a worldwide forum unlocked to crims !!

The locks can be rekeyed easy

Mangled plastics swapped out

Door pounded back and resprayed if meeded

Buy some door lock plates to make the area stronger

Get alarm with battery lol

Farking savages make the laws more serious !!

lol dude it's not as simple as just no battery...im not that silly! alarm is switched on now too ;)

I've got an idea of what needs to happen but i need a parts contact and a recommendation on a place to take her to fit and repair.

cheers mate

Call Steve Barnes at Northside Nissan in Wangara, WA. ph. 9409 0120

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
