My car was Broken into this morning at a mates place in sturt and all we got was a description of the car. so i went and made the police report, then went driving around and finally found the car that matches perfectly, went back to the cops and they said that unless they see anything in the car that matches the description they can't do anything. totally screwed up.

any way if you see this car XAF-901 Toyota Corona Wagon red with shitty primer/rust/bog all over let me know because i can't rely on the cops :ghost:

they took my girlfriends phone and wallet with all her cards in it and her weeks pay

the only way i can think of how they got in was a slim jim cos there is some scratches on my window that match up to the rough size of one. the stuff was locked in the glove box and they snapped the handle getting into it

oh yeah and we almost caught the bastards aswell lucky we left when we did otherwise i'd probably be car less

yeah i know i should have one i just couldn't afford one at the time, speaking of which what do you think is better a viper one with the transponder remote or a cheetah pro stopper

I reckon viper is better, but quite expensive, I'm getting a boomerang installed this sunday. Heaps better I reckon. I'll get u the link..

For the price I reckon it's better that the rest.. 2 way pager system ( up to 2km) , remote start and built in turbo timer....

Yet the coolest feature is the one where it can sense u coming towards the car ( coz u got the pad) and it will automatically open and vice versa if u are leaving, it will auto lock.

All for $850 installed.

I reckon u could get it cheaper coz a guy in melb sells the unit for $500

and install shouldn't be no more than $200

But I need it urgently coz of insurance reasons, so I had to pay $850

Guy comes to u and installs it. 1 yr warranty..

Not to bad if u ask me.

heres the link to info about it if anyones interested

oh btw if you are after an alarm for your car then give leon from japanese autotech (0413789211) a call, tell him duc recommended you. He cheap and does a great job. My gf and I had our viper alarms - blue 2 way pager models, installed by him and they work a treat. He also supplies and installs boomerangs as its his speciality at a competitive price.

nice ride iceduck. Assuming that your avatar is your gtt, I havent seen a gtt like yours in adelaide before - or a yellow one for that matter.

Thanks man..

I bought it last week in melb..

And drove it home.. lost a Damn eye lid on the way though.. so now it looks like it's winking..

Dunno where to find another one..

Rarely drive it though.. Project car ( and dun live in the adelaide )

Apparently there is another yellow one in Adelaide.. so yeah.. hmm..

but if ya see me around give us a yell

It's stock and slow as shit but looks nice :Oops:

Cheers mate,

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.

      ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.
