Well it happen... my R33 was broken into last night between 10pm 15/6 and 6pm 16/6. They took what every they could get their dirty hands on, Avcr, complete stereo, sunnies etc... they messed with the engine bay ripped the dash out.

Anyway, just thought i'd spread the word.. never leave your pride and joy in an apartment 'security' carpark. Camera's, security patrol, etc dont mean sh!t.

Peace out

Didnt you have an alarm? Thank god for quality installs and microwave sensors inside the cabin.

That was the first thing I put in it.. they managed to get by it without setting it off. Cops said there pro's and I was lucky they didnt get away with it.. i have to admit the cops were really good to me which was quite a surprise!

Hey SiksII, Was at broadway, just next to UTS..

thanks for all ur support guys, spend the day fixing everything up.. $400 later the interior looks good again.. now to find a new stereo and avcr....

Cheers

That sucks, i knew that carpark was dodgy, i shop there quite often at night now i will be even more worried!

And to everyone saying stuff like get a better alarm etc, do you guys honestly think it will make a difference? You are wrong, who cares if you have microwave sensors what difference will it make? the theif will get in the car and the first thing they will do is pop the bonnet and shut the siren up(20 seconds if your lucky!). Besides since when do people take notice of sirens anyway! so dont think that your car is secure just because it has any type of fancy alarm, its not!

Anyway JZ lucky at least u still have the car, hope you have luck with fixing it up!

Thanks mate, cars pretty much fixed up. just gotta get a few more bits..

It actually happened in my apartments 'security' car park not at the shops.. I live right next to broadway shopping centre.. Im very grateful they couldnt get it started.

for piece of mind im gonna upgrade my alarm system.. i mean they know exactly what it is now so its easy pickings..

It makes me sick these pr!cks get away with these sorta things.

There's so many incidents happening with Skylines at the moment... makes me question just how secure it really is "anywhere" without my eyes on it.

I have a few friends that park around that area at night, might be time to issue some warnings~

Sorry to hear mate, but as mentioned good to hear it wasn't stolen and the damage is nearly all fixed.

Thanks Satanic, yeah better warn him/her.. theres a few nice liners around here.

A bmw was broken into last night. Someone saw them and raised the alarm, thank god there's still some decent people in the world :D

What sort of alarm was it and how was it installed? It have battery backup siren? I guess its not too much effort to shut the siren off but still i'd rather make them bloody work for it. Just thought seeing as you had to experience it you'd be a bit more giving with details to maybe help others learn from your experience.

Hey Xizor,

It had a A1000 (mongoose??) yeh had a battery back up, boot, bonnet switch, kill switch.. im not sure who installed it, i remeber the previous owner saying something about life style store? anyway they got into it with out setting anything off.

Hope that helps..

    • Before you blow your car up, have you checked you've made all the correct modifications to the wiring if you're still using the RB20DE loom?   Some things to look at: The pin used for the map sensor on the RB25DET, is the same pin used on the RB20DE for the Ring Gear Crankshaft Position Sensor, no idea what you've got it plugged into now. The turbo pressure control valve solenoid you're talking about on the RB25DET, the same pin is used for the Variable Air Intake Control Valve on the RB20DE.   The factory manual has the wiring pinouts in it for you to check everything. It also has the diagnostics process to read codes out. In addition, there's a great table that shows what sensors and what actuators not functioning will relate to which signals. And Nissan confirm the as everyone else has from experience, the Solenoid being disconnected won't cause a fuel cut. However, the turbo pressure sensor being missing / wrong, WILL cause a fuel cut. https://www.nicoclub.com/service-manual?fsm=Skyline%2FR34-Workshop-Manual-English.pdf
    • I've been hunting info on the G Series II - this is best I have found so far(Link below). Still waiting on the G35-1150 comp map, kind of very keen   So how do we go about getting precision on that little table of yours ?   https://turbosbytm.com/sites/default/files/product/technical-info/Garrett-G-Series-II-Product_Flyer 25 30 35_1.pdf  
    • yeah I get ~0.6L per session into the catch can. very ethanoly. It ends up overflowing out the breather of the catch can on circuit days too even with a 2.3L capacity catch can and I only drain out ~0.6L max. So every session I have to come in and drain the catch can, which is a hassle. So this is me cracking the shits and doing everything I can without removing the motor (back of head sump drain/breather and oil restrictors off the table). plans short term are: full length splash plates remove oem cam cover baffle add foam and reinstall at -10 or -12 AN fittings to the side of the cam covers down to the sump (luckily I already have fittings in the sump) Yes the ~340,000km unopened motor is probably not helping things
    • I'd use any fuel safe foam....mine went in 15 years and 15 rebuilds ago, still getting reused I'd have to say I don't understand swapping to studs to fit a particular baffle unless you are having a massive blowby issue, and even if you are addressing crankcase not head breathing is probably the next step.
    • BTW, the reason I came in here to "update" this list was that the Garrett G Series II range have been released and I've updated the list with their flow details if you're curious to check how they fit with previous Garretts and other brands The G-Series II G35 990 looks like a banger...
