Hi guy's just wanted to to find out what types of protection systems people are using to protect their pride.

I can think of :

House alarm

House camera's

Car alarm

Wheel clamp

Steering lock

Gps tracker.

So ATM i have Hikvision cameras 4mp got the entire home covered i upgraded one of the camera for up to 70mtrs of night vision down the long driveway got the professional installation of it.

Can view live from anywhere in the world.

Basically if the airport using them its good enough for me. Image is so good i rekon ill see a mouse run from about 35mtrs away.

As for house alarm sensors are in garage too im using bosch.

Now i do i have a car alarm i think its autowatch. Have not played with it much seems to be ok

I thinking of using a steering wheel lock old school should I ... .?

Is anyone using a gps tracker and remote kill switch ?

ive heard of them but very spectacle of it.

Now if it not a daily wheel clamp it ?

Or too much damage for a sexy LMGT1

Damn that's a good quality camera.

Got generic cameras around the house. I disconnect the battery and take the steering wheel off (quick release).
You can also disconnect/remove an AFM/the ECU/kill switch, but if someone wants your car, they'll pull it up onto a flat bed.

Don't clamp the LMGT1s please :P

Found this car tracker aussie guy that imports n sells em
Just wanted to know if anyone using it coz apparently he sell them to big companies and most rental car company.

It even features a kill option so positive wire on relay connect to fuel pump or whatever triggered by sms

Only thing i want to find out is how good is the reception ? Using telstra.
And did anyone test the kill switch ?
Product looks promising.

Sounds good for the price

The concern I can see just quickly looking at it is that there is no integrated GPS, so Im gatherithing its using multiple mobile phone base stations (normally 2, lucky 3) that triangulate on sim signal to indicate estimated location. This fails in accuracy for a number of reasons when something valuable is at stake, but I guess u can add a gps in the port but then price/value changes

Found another idea that is super simple and makes it just that little bit harder.

If your car is lucky as mine with its own personal garage.
Switching the power off is great in my mind.
Got the idea coz when i was a kid i used too ride on my bike changing my remote codes and use to open peoples doors haha hope it won't bite me in de ass now !!

my bad, only have blue tooth range

Oh I've seen them pop up on Facebook a few times i looked into them and found that one brand sync with a wifi network and makes a wifi networking range with other key finders so it has a bigger range downside to this is that 1 has to the wifi connected or Bluetooth 2 needs other finder to make a network for longer range 3 makes drop point location not gps location on demand [emoji20]

I recently installed the tracker thats listed above that i got from ebay aussie guy and even call him to get more information before i paid 4 it.

I must say that I'm very happy with the product once i activated my simcard installed the tracker nice and deep ( what a pain is the r33 dash !!! anyway ) connected the 12V+ Ground- and Accessories and log on to my account online very easy must say very accurate too the dam thing know what side my car is sitting in the garage. [emoji12]


Also came with a relay for a fuel cut out by sms will update on how it work well once i get around to it.

    • 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.
