SA Wasteland?

[Nightcrawler]

I religously start my car and run it for at least 5 minutes before I drive it every morning, so the remote start would save me walking out to the garage. And yes false alarms are a pain in the butt - but what's the alternative?! Better be over-protected than some dickwit steal your car or your stuff. Remeber, I had my car broken into within 5 minutes of me leaving it in Kensington Park - in the middle of the day. These crooks have no respect or fear whatsoever. I am soooooo close to leaving my car at Tea Tree Plaza one arvo and watching it from a distance with a few mates and a baseball bat. It is very out of control - the crooks know they hardly get punished, so keep doing it. When they can't walk or use their fingers anymore they won't be able to rip-off people's pride-and-joy.

i spoke to pete today and his car is prowling the streets. cant wait to hear it and go for a drive when i drop by his place.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

nice!! i love that car!

Looks like "The 34" won't be on the road until November at this stage. We are off to the USA in 9 days and don't get back until the end of September - so it will go in for compliance in October sometime. Can't wait!

i couldnt belive what they did with your S15, would have been nice to have a rock handy and take out their rear windscreen

have to organise a cruise the weekend after you get it complied

[Nightcrawler]

yep, will do for sure!!!

I'm still acquiring bits and pieces to fit before I get it on the road - I have quite a little collection under my bed.

The wheels have gone in to be repainted, and I currently have the stockies on the car (as per my sig pics) - I quite like the stockies - but my dish rims will be unreal when I get them back

i understand the perspective you coming from andrew particualr since you've experienced it first hand. persoanlly, i just cant stand the false alarms - hasnt happened on the 33 but the sil gets it all the time. thing is though, when an alarm goes off a majority of people just ignore it as they assume its only a false alarm when in fact that may not be the case. i guess this is where the pager then comes in handy.

if there is going be a cruise organised in the coming future, ill try to get pete to come as well as duc too.

[Nightcrawler]

yep, my thoughts exactly Duc. People barely look when a car alarm goes off these days.

I found this nice pic (below) in my travels - thought I'd share it with you all. If anyone wants it in 1280 x 960 for their desktop let me know and I'll email the original to you.

[Sambo33]

is that a mclaren F1?

[Nozila]

andrew, where bout you going in the us, is it a travel package sort of trip? if you can definately go to san diego, why? hooters bar

yep, and an " as many point possible " immoboliser to prevent the bitches takin off with the car, i always try to leave my car in a place where its easily visible anyways, i'd rather park it sumwhere like that than in the far corner of a car park where its hard to see

[Nozila]

pic looks computer generated but very nice either way.

simple club lock in addition to the car alarm doesnt go astray

[**JaR**]

yeah does look pretty computerised, still would make an awsome desktop b/g but
