just wondering where you guys put your keys when you go to the beach?

i was thinking like putting the keyring around a thing on my boardies, and leaving the alarm off and leaving the control thing for it in the car

what does everyone else do? i just couldn't leave the keys in my shoes, way too risky

lock your car with immobiliser (key, underthe bonnet)... leave hand control remote in the car, only take your keys...

lock your car (leave open your driverside window), lock your car. leave your key in thr golove console.

lock your window from out side (one pull on window close button)

when u wany to get back in call your RAC :(

Do not leave your keys somewhere on the cars exterior (eg, hidden) or on the beach.

A good friend of mine had his car stolen this way. Scum will actually follow you down the beach and watch where you stash them.

I usually leave the keypad hidden somewhere inside the car, and strap the key inside my pocket (most surfie brand pants have a key string).

Little trick I use.'

I have a little tupperware with some seaweed stuck to it. I chuck all my stuff in there, bury it then leave the sea weed out so I can see where I put it. :P Just make sure no-one sees you do it.

Old scool!

have you seen the movie two hands? would make you think twice

but yeah i think i'll just clip it onto the boardies, seeing as i don't have a missus at the moment and the other ideas sound dodgy, especially the anal insertion, :uhh: although it would work, not a big fan of putting things in my butt

Usually I go with a group of mates, so someone can usually watch our stuff, but perhaps an idea would be to get one of those plastic bags with the seal top, you could put your keys in there and put it in your boardies. Not sure about taking the key into saltwater without any protection over it.

I wouldn't leave your alarm off and take your key. That's the reason you have an alarm so if someone hot wires it the alarm is immobilising.

I'd take it with me - but with my daily I just leave my key on the beach on my towel.. Noone's going to take a barina :D

But yeah after hearing all this if I ever take the ceff to the beach I'll be taking the key with me and immobilising it stealth like ;)

I've seen these little boxes that stick to your car. They have a keypad on top, so to open it you have to put in a combination of your choice. I think it even says somthing on the box about hiding your key in it while your at the beach.

      You could try some less aggressive pads on the rear. I found (a long time ago when all my brakes were stock 32) that using the same (Bendix Ultimate) pads at both ends made the rear bias excessive. I strongly suspect that the stock Nissan pads probably use a different material, but aftermarket pads will usually be the same material regardless of what pad they are put onto. That bias situation did get better when I put R33 calipers on the front AND used the same pads - just transferred them from old to new calipers. So you should feel the difference with the change you're making. But certainly do not forget the option to change the rear pads down a grade or two.

      Misfire/stalling issues

      Ha ha, sorry dose, I wasn't meaning to argue the point on "it'll do f**k all". I was only shining a bit of a light in the flawed logic you used with it mate.   I 100% agree that there is zero point changing stock manifold with a stock turbo, unless the manifold is f**ked. And only reason I'd ponder aftermarket manifold on a stock turbo would be that I'm too scared too look at the potential ludicrous prices people are asking for a stock manifold! Ha ha ha

      Your response is extremely similar to what someone on the Haltech tuning tips Facebook page answered me. I take it you're also on there haha. Dyno is booked for June 27th and that's exactly what I'll be doing. I also realized I never setup a pulse width adder table so I went and did that last night. Made a fair bit of fueling difference in low load areas.  I sorted out my power steering belt woes. It was an alignment issue and it has now survived multiple instances of abuse that would have killed it prior. I also changed my fuel pump hose. The hose I replaced looks nothing like the legit gates hose I received. Real hose is actually 5/16" and is labelled properly. Amazon refunded me but has been giving me grief about my nasty review I'm trying to leave... I keep having to modify it for acceptance. I want to make sure the point gets across to others.  Last issue I want to deal with soon is the slight vibration I get in my steering wheel with my GKTech Spacers in front. My annoyance has grown and I'm at a point where I want it resolved. I've tried everything I can come up with like clean spacers thoroughly, tighten in star pattern, retorque, have wheels rebalanced 4-5x with a variety of machines (2x with a Hunter elite). I've also taken the spacers off and remounted multiple times just in case.  I'm starting to think my GKtech spacers are at fault. I'll pop a wheel off and toss a dial indicator on tomorrow to verify runout and parallelism.
