Last night at about 6:30pm someone attempted to steal my R33 gtst

Mooroolbark Victoria

They tried to pry my garage roller door open and luckily didn't manage to get inside before being spooked by neighbours.

A shifty looking guy has been hanging around for the last few weeks, this is the reason she's off the street and I've kicked my brothers new Audi out of the garage into the weather.

Seriously lock your cars up tight

I've made a bar lock that goes from front left rim to right rear rim under the car that locks in place with blast proof locks, leaving the car unable to turn or roll.

If you want one

Call me 0402185982

What stops them from taking your wheels off? Or does it just poke through the spokes rather than bolsters to them?

So the bars poke out through the rim and have a plate that's slid on before you lock it down.

I suppose they could remove your wheels, but the time and effort involved is to risky, I also supply security wheel nuts to stop them removing the wheel to start with.

Another product if your worried is a quick release positive battery terminal cable that un clips from your cars existing cable.

It's got a rubberised sleeve to stop the metal joiner touching anything whole driving but can be removed by simply removing the pin and un clipping it.

Leaving your car with no power to start.

This gets annoying say if you have a preset audio selection on your stereo, but is another sure way to keep the car safe.

Is your garage directly on the street or at the back of a driveway?

I'm astonished that these Gts-t's are still targeted so hard! Don't get me wrong, I love mine, but they're hardly worth anything these days, and there are plenty of other cars to steal out there..

Yeah I don't get it

Parts aren't worth much?

What's the point?

My garage is at the back of the driveway

Im guessing its bot the price but the easy market to pass the parts on to. For example if they stole a bmw how many people would honestly be looking for those parts?

Well yeah the price of a 2nd hand Evo 8 Exhaust, compared to a 2nd hand R33 exhaust... Price is about double for the skyline parts

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
