all they need to do with that system, is to make it keep a last known GPS location, that would solve the problme justin pointed out....if it takes note of the GPS location b4 it was driven into the garage etc, then you basically pin point the car down to their driveway

Sure does Dezz.

Just my opinion, if anyone could afford a Skyline of any type, they should always get, at the VERY least, 3rd party fire and theft. If you can't afford this, you can't afford to maintain it, thus you can't afford to keep the car.

100% agreed. same for any car. it should be the law to have third party at a very minimum....but if you cant afford to insure your car, you cant afford the car

i stopped myself buying certain cars a while ago for this very reason...

and if the GPS alarm does what i said above, then it should be basically full proof

I think every car does have third part minimum in the rego :P

thought so...but too easy for dead heads to drive around un-registered

and if thats the case, why are people always whinging about other people driving around un-insured

if someone steals ya car and parks it underground the GPS probs wont be able to pick it up tho :huh:

That seam’s true but I would think most thief’s would either take the car for a joy ride or drive it somewhere to be striped down... That being said I know that if your car has being started or even if you disconnect the battery without dis-arming the system that with in a min you would receive a phone call from quick track confirming your car and they will dispatch a guard or police to intercept the vehicle..

Now I don't know, if the car has being driven to an underground location if they can still track it, but they would need to be very quick about it because they will respond very promptly.

midnight... i was driving on beach road, saw a S2 33, but i was driving into the sun, lots of traffic. It didn't look black, but a dark colour...

was gun metal every available in S2? i didn't think it was...

it could have been a dark blue, i tried looking in the rear view mirror, but nearly had a crash :huh: this was around 4:00pm Tuesday afternoon,

i forgot completely to post this.

It was on Beach rd, not far from Elwood park? um... i just call it beach rd cos it's a long the beach, but i know the road changes names... might be an esplanade. But yeah, opposite that picnic type area in Elwood.

are you thinking the car is in the northern suburbs??

The third party on your rego is PUBLIC LIABILITY insurance, it does not cover other ppl's cars or property.

I also beleive that 3rd party insurance should be made law. Do it like Europe, you have to present a current insurance policy when paying rego.

werd.

didnt think the insurance on rego covered cars

should be compulsory to have third party property damage !

shit, its a couple of hundred, less on shit boxes

I saw a car matching your description but with stock rims parked on osborne ave clayton/springvale 10pm on monday nite.

I was a passenger so a got a fair look even @ the speed my mad running late mate was travelling @, but i didnt see this thread till today so I didnt stop to check for the bonnet mark ect.

100% certain its a dark blue car..95% sure it was an s2.

Might be worth a look...

Sorry that i cant go and check for certain that the car is still there, but im about a 40 min drive away.

Anyway goodluck * peers out the window at his own cars, i've got 3 in the driveway and had the alarms go off 4 times this past week + my nice neighbour spotted a "skanky bogan" in my driveway last week also in my front yard around 8pm last nite...*heads back out front with his trusty bat. Damn I hate people!! especially those toothless dim witted pricks with poor personal hygiene that the suburbs seem awash with.

Correct. Only covers the 3rd party individual.

With the UK you now have to take the insurance certificate and the annual roadworthy equivilant certificate called the MOT to get taxed not just insurance which is even better IMO as it prevents bangers going around that are the real road worthy issues.

Sorry to put this in the stolen thread but at least it is keeping it at the top for you mate.

sent you a pm mate...hasnt appeared in my sent items though so i'll post instead/aswell

The car i saw was on the springvale side of osborne ave...so thats a right turn off westall rd if your city bound, the car was parked in the street on the l/h/s.

I noticed it coz im a liner owner and it's my job to notice other lines :P

The color stood out to me because I thought it was another black car like mine till we were right on it I didnt realize it was a dark blue and i've only ever seen 2 in that color. The stock rims on a neat car also made me cringe just a lil bit also.

Anyway if im bored shitless tonite I'll take that drive for you and see if I can spot it...If I do i'll take your mobile # with me. If your going for a look tonite pm me maybe we can meet up and search the area properly.

Goodluck...

    • You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before
    • OK, so a bunch of trim needs to come off to get to the rear shock top mounts. Once the seat is out of the way, the plastic trim needs to come off. Remove 2 clips at the top then slide the trim towards the centre of the car to clear the lower clip Next you need to be able to lift the parcel shelf, which means you need to remove the mid dark trim around the door, and then the upper light trim above the parcel shelf. The mid trim has a clip in the middle to remove first, then lift the lowest trim off the top of the mid trim (unclips). At the top there is a hidden clip on the inner side to release first by pulling inwards, then the main clip releases by pulling the top towards the front of the car. The door seal comes off with the trim, just put them aside. The the lighter upper trim, this is easy to break to top clips so take it carefully. There is a hidden clip towards the bottom and another in the middle to release first by pulling inwards. Once they are out, there are 3 clips along the rear windscreen side of the panel that are hard to get under. This is what the rear of the panel looks like to assist:
    • Yes. Autos typically work from the speed sensor on the pinion shaft of the diff. I also think that even if you have a proper speed sensor for the bog manual in the manual box, that the signal it outputs is not compatible with the auto dash anyway. You should consult that manual (the book, not the gearbox).
    • And I just realised that that advice is slightly nonsensical for a GTR, because you need 2 of them. But it is otherwise true.
    • Having had a reasonable look at the car, I'll be able to remove the (one time) rams and retract the hinge (they are held in the down location by a tiny (m3?) sacrificial screw) which will get it physically back in shape. From there if you remove the rams you need a resistor to turn off the airbag light (as Mark said, there are plug in kits and I might go that way because its reversible). And...per all the threads on here, even if you have the resistors to turn off the airbag light, the bonnet light will stay on as it writes to the airbag computer history - that is either replace the airbag controller, reprogam the EPROM (if I can work out how), or remove the globe from the dash. Having seen how sensitive this system is, if I had my time over I'd pre-emptively remove the rams, even on a road car, because this is all a very unnecessary pain in the arse. Reminds me, time to go and have a look at the Fuga too....
