The only one I saw on the news was in Wellington St East Perth - a 200SX and the owner in hospital. The car jackers stole the car again from the cop shop to make things worse.

They claim it is the african group that was in yesterday's paper - they seem to operate in any area

Was listening to the scanner last night..

A black 2002 Model 200SX with plates W1E it was.. got re-stolen..

there was a stakeout operation near carousel where the car was dumped, they were hoping to catch the culprits as they returned to the car later on.

2 undercover cars, and a canine unit were deployed from what i heard on the air....

SCANNERS RULE!

i got car-jacked 2 months ago, they took my white 33  and they were of middle eastern origin i think, so just watch yourselves and always make sure your doors are locked and just always be watchin your back for anyone suspicious....

hope this doesnt sound rude, R33_CAM but i was wondering how big u r? ....like how tall r u? r u 18 or something? is there any reason why u think they may have thought u were an easy target?

.......should i keep trying to get beefcake? hehee......

happened in northern suburbs, Beldon to be exact, BP Service Station CNR of Eddystone and Ocean Reef Rd.

GR33DyMANGO: im 22, not big either, so yeah that could have been why they targeted me, not sure really, dunno if they had been following me or it was just a random thing, bit scary at the time, but its forgotten now, i only have the scars and the big dentist/insurance/tranfer fees etc etc to deal with now hehehe:mad: :D:P and the a** hole gets away with it:headshot:

it was in the carpark just across from BP, my mate was there but there were 2 of them and my mate bot a broken nose also, ppl came over but it was too late he had already taken off in my car, im ok now apart from the extra money that i had to fork out for insurance and dentist (he knocked my front teeth out), the car was a write off, as the got in a high speed chase, got away from the cops, then crashed it in south perth.... but i have a new one thanks to RAC, i was fully covered so it was no hassles.

and they are a** holes ppl that go round doing that, they should work for it as you said, but they'll get theres one day, cause what goes around comes around:D

I think a while back, when we heard about Cam, some ppl were disscussin pepper spray on ure keyrings. I thought this was a pretty good idea seeing as if u blast em witht he spray u will have enuff time to get the "persuader"(sp) out from next to the drivers seat.

Hey if i catch one of these guys id go to great lengths to cart em to the nearest police station KOed (after makin a stop to pick up contriband substances of a jailable amount):D

Chances are if u nail one of these guys and drag him to the station u will prolly get charged with "grevious bodily harm" or something like that. We could always go back to the stoneages and start cutting off hands but that wouldnt be very pretty would it.

*sigh* well what can ya do

Sorry about the rant but when i heard about the tooth thing i really lost it. Both my front teeth are implants and just one of em is worth alot more then one of these scumbags life.

i was thinking of stun guns too, and i actually did come across one site in america that would ship them to australia, in two pieces so customs wouldn't see them, one bit one week and then the other bit the next week, but that was before all this happened and i lost there address :D but i think ill start looking again, cause u have to do something these days, the cops say dont take the law into your own hands, but they cant keep getting away with it, cause then they will keep doing it. maybe if some car owners/enthusiasts start kickin some butt, it mite deter a few of them...

Carjack protocol.

1. 'persuade' theif to not take car. (using pepper spray, acid, tazer or similar)

2. tie rope to back of car

3. tie other end of rope to theif(s)

4. Plant drugs, child and animal porn, nazi emblems, and anti police slogans on them.

5. drive to police station, using excessive speed drifting around corners, and swerving violently towards and away from obstacles.

6. untie rope from car.

7. get going quick.

    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using. 
    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
