Guys, im sure all of you are well aware of the news in regards to all these skylines that have been getting stolen > Frankly its getting me a little paranoid even if i still do have full insurance....

I was reading in auto salon magazine a new security device called "Car smoke Security system" wanted to know what you think about this system and if anyone has it installed in there car, and is it a defect??????

I'm also looking to buy a clublock

looking for a good brand ????

Any feed back would be great!!

Lol guys, I think he was hoping for a serious reply.

I have a 3 point immobiliser but I think one of them in addition to a club lock should be plenty unless you're leaving the car in a place where theives would have the time to remove/replace a stearing wheel or tow it away.

I refuse to leave my car in vulnerable places.

Those new snap off steering wheel kits, any one know much about them???

It is, silly as it sounds a boss kit that you can snap off and take the wheel with you, thus making the car hard to steer for would be joyriders.

I saw them in speed last month I think.

one good thing rearly mentioned is a main power key. it goes inline to your starter from your battery (it is the same big red plastic key that you see on the race cars). you can fit this underbonnet and take it with you. Another thing I haven't seen in years is an actual fuel line lock - same idea as the red power key, but goes into the fuel line.

basically use as meany methods as you can :P

Coming from SA I can tell you that no matter what you put in your car they can steal it if they really want it. It's only going to deter them but if they want it it's gone.

Get a 9mm para, trunk monkey and a **** off big dog. That should help.

But seriously I know of guys that can steal cars with tracking units and still get away with them. If you drive it to an airport apparently all the radars around there block out the tracker. i know of other ways but I'm not gonna give anyone ideas.

In SA they test out all of this latest and greatest equipment and 99.9% of it will be stolen.

Thats BS at least for most tracking systems if not all.

so if you know them why dont you turn them in?

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
