getting 3rd party is a risk im willing to take cause in the 1.5 years of me driving there havnt been any damage or theft attempts on my car

if people cant afford to pay 3700 then they should atleast have alarm and immobilser which i have on my car, only thing i dont have is a pager which im gonna have to look into getting

WTF Jim,

Hope your car is found and returned to you.

Jap imports are easy targets when it comes to theft this is why an immobilizer is so important.

Bugger.

leave him alone mid life crisis...! good luck finding it. i will keep a look out.

who rattled your tin mook? i am entitled to my opinion i supose your another one without insurence if you took the time to read the post you will see i also said i hope he finds his car undamaged and intact . i was just pointing out the dangers of not having insurence. or a alarm or imobiliser without this things fitted and turned on you may as well leave the keys in the car with the motor running and the drivers door open

regards mid life crisis

you may as well leave the keys in the car with the motor running and the drivers door open

A bit like having a turbo timer with no alarm. One of the first modifications I made to my car after it landed was to remove the turbo timer and install a high quality alarm.

Sorry to hear about your loss coupe-this, I know what it feels like. The first brand new car I bought, an MY00 WRX, was stolen from my house a few years ago never to be seen again.

I agree with mid life crisis too; if you can't afford insurance/running costs/repairs of a particular car, don't buy it.

Hope you get it back.

And in my opinion you should leave the poor guy alone coz what are you his mother. Also you suppose wrong as i have full comp insurance and the top of the range viper pager alarm system. Look coupe-this probably should have had insurance and an alarm but he didn't so its too late for shoulda's. Sorry i just hate people telling me what to do or what i should have done.

One last thing, this topic is about trying to help coupe-this find his line. not argue about insurance and what he should have done. So just stick to the topic and stop whoring it. Start a new topic if you wanna rave on about insurance. i love a good debate.. hehe :O

No disrespect intended.

Police were contacted as soon as i dragged myself out of the dumbfounded ness thing that sorta is like, my car, dude, wheres my car. Only problem i didnt get stuck on an odd day with a tattoo of dude, or sweet on my back etc ...

end useless rant

third party...

Doesn't third party cover you for fire and theft?

Hey coupe-this, i live near you and i will look out for you too.

Try going down to elwood beach on a thursday night or any hot night for that matter, was there yesterday and saw a few cars that matched your description. The thief prob wouldnt be that stupid to take it cruising but you never know.

Good luck mate

I thought most Viper alarms weren't approved by insurers? (mostly because they offer remote start and/or no black wiring)

yeah nah just cars accepted it... the trick is to mount the unit behind the insturment cluster and route wires from there. a theif will have a hard time stealing the whole car as the cluster will have to be remove to gain access to the original wires to bypass the alarm. :)

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
