Well my luck with my skyline has been down right shocking over the last month.

First i got broken into, and they couldn't cath the bastards cause they had stolen number plates.

Now last night at either the Floreat or CPP on Roe St, think it was CPP cause didn't notice it at Floreat, I got my drivers side door keyed.

I scoped the cars that i parked next to and they were like corollas and other basic ones and 3 cars away from a R33 Grey GTR. So wasn't next to no any commocraps who can't handle that skylines are better performing so I got no idea why i got the hit.

Also parked next to 2 riced up 180SXs at the FLoreat. My bunky was in repair for the weekend for a wheel bearing and some part that couldn't be sourced in WA so i had to use the line. So if i had the bunky fixed i doubt anything would've happened.

They put 2 scratches in down to the metal about twice as lone as the door handle.

Can anyone recommend me to a panel beater that won't charge ridiculous, didn't notice a panel beater in the sponsers area that i could use my membership on.

seems to all happen in the same area

must be same set of dodgy kids running around causing trouble

I've never heard of it happening in floreat before, and my mates are always parking there

JXL, bad luck dude; but there's no point stooping to cretin level by joining in on the '"commocrap" who are likely to key your car' chanting

To respond to your your question though, I used some group who were over the railway line in guildford once, they were dirt cheap to fix a dent so would be able to touch up the scratch no problems

Will find out their name or address if you want to travel there?

Yeah i don't mind travelling there, if you get me the addy taht would be great.

Few people have said maybe $60 but it could turn into $100 and that's money i don't have and didn't budget in the week for so this kinda crap really is pissing me right off.

Stuff all this anti-hoon laws, we need some anti-c**t laws for these pricks punishable by public canning and 3 years lock up in maximum security.

i say the government force the keyers to bend over in one of those olden day stocks while the entire west coast eagles football team runs a train on their ass.

that'll teach em never to key another car, my brother parked his car down towards the footpath you may / may not have seen it, the orange 180sx / black roof?

he parked it there literally not longer than 3 minutes to run inside and some prat keyed his boot, awful hey...

I'm pretty sure this is the road:

Duffy St, in Bassendean/Bayswater

It's a couple of years since I went there, but yeah they charged pretty much nothing

Good luck with it anyway dude

trolley damage still there :D Front end damage (which was my fault unfortunately) got fixed at Mildland Accident Repair which did a good job ..... although they use all second hand parts where possible so i had to get them to fit me a new fan blade today cos the one they put in there was rooted.

Your line isnt black is it? they are bad luck i tell ya haha!

Oh well jsut makes you enjoy it more when you do have ya car :)

Was there anything taken when they broke into it? Barsteds did my car while it was parked a few metres from entrance of work in plain day - just smashed the drivers window took the radar detector .... i was lucky that SAFC n EBC was left and i looked my CD's in glove box that day cos i had a feeling. Maybe police should friggin spend their resources actually preventing crime!

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
