Stolen: Wed 28th June

[SR32]

Hi .... I'm extremely pissed off!

On Wednesday arvo I parked at the Kmart side of the galleria in morley for around 1/2 hour while i was shopping between 4.30-5.05pm. Someone broke into my car via the passenger side and stole a lot of valuable stuff I'd really like back. Most of the shit they stole has no worth to them without the other parts under the engine bay...f**king doosh bags, so they'll either try to sell them or dump them!!!! But it's costing me $1550 IN EXCESS!!!!! Cameras at galleria didnt cover the parking spot I was in so no footage (that's if security checked like they said they would)

Here's the important stuff that was stolen if you can keep your eyes and ears out:

GReddy Profec Eo1 Electronic Boost Controller (screen, controller and sender unit only) + Emanage box

GReddy white electronic gauges

GReddy Turbo timer (black with blue lit display)

Radar detector

Trust Gear nob

Sabelt (blue)

Double din head unit

Grey Adidias shoulder bag of clothing, camera, ipod (unsure what esle was in there)

BEWARE: just car insurance will not cover anything if it is not bolted to the car nor a permanent item...cds are not permanent car items- not covered, bag of items - not covered, emanage that was about to be installed but not yet managing the car- not covered! It hardly makes it worth making a claim.../end rant.

Also if traders could keep a look out for suspicious enquiries on purchasing just the solenoid and wiring for profec e01, or the timer, or the gauges. Thanks.

Sorry to hear Nat people reckon I'm paranoid when I refuse to park my line anywhere but a secure spot.

Anyway hope it all works out and I'll kepp my eyes open for the gear.

[dan_the_man]

Hey nat

Sorry to hear it. Will keep a look out

[SR32]

Cheers guys. Ant, I now know exactly what you mean. I wish I had been paranoid before this happened and it may have been avoided. I thought it was safe, lots of people around, lots of cars around...I didnt park far away and my car could be seen from the entry doors to the shop. Now I even lock my doors while im driving, I feel like my cars a free for all...violated.

[philta]

my aunt got robbed at galleria its a f**ked up place NOR. glass sensor means f**k all on ur alarm , cuz its only on the dirvers side. i suggest u park close to entry doors when going to galleria.

sorry to hear man, hope u find the lil bastards that did it.

[HIPSI]

Damn that is a lot of goodies that you are now missing...was the gear knob actually on the gearstick??

[Shayde]

Best of luck finding the gear, man. I really hate hearing stuff like this. My sister's car got broken into at the Galleria as well. This was several years ago though.

[SR32]

Yeah the gear knob was on, its screw on and screw off unfortunately. Billet shifter I think they're called, like a diamond shape.

[HIPSI]

Yeah I have a veilside one which is probally similar..damn can't believe they took it though.. might drill a hole and screw mine in....

They aren't that easy to find in Aus

[SR32]

Yeah pretty shitty hey, it is worth $100 or thereabouts though, less second hand.

I smelt the fresh cigarette smell (i dont smoke) and freaked out before I even noticed the shit was gone!

[gucio]

Sorry to hear mate

Some thing happened to my brothers car about 3 weeks ago. They stolen a E-01 Boost controller, but they cut the cable that goes under the dash so the unit was useless to them!!!! If you hear anything about people buying parts for an E-01 can you please inform me.

And they also stolen an amp and sub!!

I have a feeling its the same people, idiots dont know anything about imports or electronics!!!

cheers

[SR32]

Yeah sounds very similar! It looks like they cut the wires clean off after grabbing the sender unit, even had to pull away my carpet and panel to get to it.

[ossie_21]

Sorry to hear that Nat

Guy at work had his mazda 626 (wtf) stolen from there too, f*kn dodgy place the galleria, haven't been there in years & won't be taking my car there anytime soon. One question, how many of those items (if not all) were clearly visible inside the car?

Just asking because apart from my a-pillar boost gauge it looks average, the only other things that get attention would be the steering wheel & the not-yet functioning rocket switch that will control the 2 maps (16psi/10psi) once sorted, but even those aren't spectacular....sleeper for the win

I just think its f**ked you can park your car in the middle of the day, in a quite public place, for a short amount of time, and still get f**ked over by these losers, while the same cop that would give you a yellow for a pod won't give a f**k if $1000+ worth of stuff is stolen after a break in.

VIGILANTE PEOPLE!!

[GTR888]

Sorry to hear that shit happening. You never catch the MF's doing it and what can ya do but just be extra paranoid to protect your hard earned dollars. I have a sick feeling today as my original GTR rims were stolen in the middle of the day in a security building! go figure....

[SR32]

Sounds like its crime time! I have no tint on at the moment, so I guess everything was visible if you look close enough. Im going to have to think about the location and hiding my goodies next time. Dirty dirty scoundrels. Still furious.

Maybe go african style and get the gas outlets under my car. Or maybe get some amazing doors that slam on the intruder breaking any limb thats in the way and lock the rest of their body inside awaiting a beating. Ohh yeah.

[stÖrmy]

damn man...how did they break in there? smashed glass or did you door no lock ?

because i know a few people with skylines now that when they lock up there car only the driver side locks...

thats dodgey.

[SR32]

Nah my alarm/locks were fine up until the break in, never had a problem. And my alarm is set so that if the key is not in the ignition and the car hasnt been locked, in 30 seconds it automatically locks the doors and arms the sensors (caught me out a few times with leaving my keys inside too).

[stÖrmy]

so then they smashed the windows and got in ?

maybe theres some witnesses ?

edit : also, might want to keep your eyes out for your stuff on ebay, look for new listings for simmilar stuff like yours, if you see any and its listed as beign in WA then you might want to look into it some more.
