Just a Toshiba 9" Tablet, minor scratches on the screen with a rubber diagonal rib pattern on the back.
Turns out my Silver point and shoot Camera was stolen too.
And the USB's are just a blue and black MP3 player with a round dial control on one end, and the other a red and black 8gb one.
GPS was a garmin glass face with metal back on it, as well as holder and thick 12v cable, white splitter, black twin 12v cable and my phone charging cable too.

100% ILLICIT/ILLEGAL substances to blame

Thats part of it, but if you blame the substance does the jerk get away with it?

People are to blame.

Substances are an excuse for them to behave however they want. Or just a result of them being lazy,selfish fkwits anyway.

Thats why they do it.

No mercy.

Ps theres plenty of us who can behave when intoxicated, you still know right from wrong when your blind drunk.

I don't disagree. I have had many rants

My solution is an old one. I lived in an Asian city as a very young boy.

A white post in the middle of the city and a firing squad. Users + Sellers

Over time the problem goes away

The old Austrian guy i used to work for had some ideas about that, using well tested solutions. :laugh:

He said "put a sign that says work makes you free! haw! haw! haw!" Sick sense of humor. But very funny.

Its kinda weird how they say what was done (Auschwitz etc) was wrong, but they asked for it.

Anyway, i guess living in Canberra i just take it for granted that some sht will steal or vandalize the car. So im very vigilant and never leave it out the front at night.

Some areas i dont even like to let it out of sight for more than 5 minutes. I always think about where to park thats the safest when i go out.

Dont forget to report your stolen goods, Cops regularly check Cash Converters and pawn shops.

Yes! Goods reported to the Cops and Cashies, especially with full details like Make, Model and Serial Number (you must fill out a Stolen Goods Form at Cashies) are cross checked between them and the list of goods received by Cashies is given to the cops daily. I Know This For a Fact.

The amount of Reported Stolen goods received by Cashies is actually quite low due to the processes in place and having to get full I.D. of the seller. Also Fact.

Black market / bartering is more likely.

However I'm not sure if Cashies actually deals in Secondhand goods in Canberra anymore. Could be wrong but I am under the impression they went under.

Been a steady decline in business for years.

They still do personal Finance though.

The selfishness of a Drug fiend (gotta get some, gotta have it) by far out ways any sense of morals.

Don't care who suffers as long as they get what they "need". :/

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

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

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
