You can buy the GPS systems of eBay for about 39 buck !! Good ones to, and you can track your car of your iphone! And you can set it up up underneath the dash where thiefs can't find it.

Are they any good?

This thread scares the hell out of me! I'd die if someone stole my GTR!

Yeah type GPS tracking into eBay there real good easy to hide and watch your car from iphone live tracking

Thanks mate, I didn't realise they were so cheap.

I have the immobiliser and alarm etc but just one additional thing for further peace of mind never hurt anyone.

Shame this hasn't helped OP, GL with finding your car!

Just go the full works...

I'm talking a sophisticated system with motion sensors, alarms, immobolisers, GPS tracking units, wheel locks, kill switches, detachable steering wheel with lock.


Install a few kill switches in visible locations and then more kill switches in non visible locations.

Heck, carry around four of these in the car so that when you park you know you're not getting towed in a hurry.

Its reasonable to assume there is chop shops operating right now...so be careful.

Didn't realise these GPS units were actually that cheap.

My old man used to have one. It was ridiculously expensive and on top had to pay a fee every month.

However, it was VERY good. Constant phone updates and used to tell him everything.

I am glad to hear you can pick up some good units off ebay!

They're heaps good, but apparently really sophisticated thieves carry jammers with them that disable the GPS trackers, i've read it somewhere in these forums, and it makes sense. Doesn't hurt to have one hidden somewhere though

if someone who knows what they are doing wants your car, They will get it. Its more to stop the joy riders and young cowboys.

    • I've got a 2011 J50 that I imported six years ago. The unmodified factory AV system date and time has always been correct ( Japanese timezone of course ) up until last month. About two weeks ago, at engine start, the system wished me a happy new year ( in Japanese of course ). I can't think of anything that would make the system think that the date had changed, unless the GPS component has failed/reset somehow ? I checked the GPS reception in the system settings, and it can still see the satellites. Has any other J50 owner had this happen ?  It's no biggie, just annoying that it tells me the wrong date anytime I start the engine. 😅
    • Love following your adventures on IG, hopefully if you're still around in Japan when we visit again wouldn't mind going for a few beers with you (that's if you're keen on hearing how I hate Nissans).
    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
