It seems someone has been back, a few M35 Stagea parts have been stolen since. I really hope it isn't someone I know with a Stagea but it's useless to anyone else... Try and help people and this is what I get. :/

Cameras will be installed today fagt, come back and I will be ready for you.

Pretty gutsy going back for more.

Don't tell em the cameras are getting installed, you want them to come back with them on!

Though it's likely they haven't even seen this thread if they returned.

Well that's fuarked...

My suggestion would be (having been raised in Sydney's Western suburbs), mount cameras where people won't think to look. So not on the wall in the corner, but more at a lower height on a wall with the lens facing up. Depends on the range and vision of the camera though. Many many years ago, a mate had shit go missing and it looked like someone had a key to get in. He set up flood lights but left them on the floor and had the sensor near his shit. Looked like they were lying there waiting to be mounted but he'd left it like that intentionally. Thief comes back, finds out it's his ex selling shit for next to nothing to get back at him... But a few ideas any way. Shit blokes know where to look for cameras and lights. Although, in this day and age, you can get really tiny powerful shit that can be hidden anywhere. Hope that helps!

I want them in view as a deterrent, the parts I leave out usually don't have much value anyway. As long as the customers cars are recorded i'm happy, as I have done my best to stop opportunistic thieves. The ones that want something in particular won't be stopped by cameras or padlocks.

These are 4 of the wheels that were taken. JDM VENERDI 19" Chrome. Likely to be TOTALLY unique in VIC.

Been trying to sell them for the past couple of months...

Anyone seeing them, PLEASE let myself or Scotty know. they are 5x114.3 so will fit ford or Jap wheels.

Yes Lifted, been on eBay for a while.

what's worse is that they are REALLY nice wheels for the right car. and you can't get that stuff here. I was even getting tempted to put them back on my stag.. Anyways.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
