4am monday morning i woke up to the sound of a loud car exhaust. looked out the window and saw some top bloke trying to break into my bro's r33. the alarm goes off and the top bloke jumps into a white (standard looking) 180sx which was waiting along side (probably stolen?). we ran outside but they had already sped off. they managed to open the door somehow without any sign of damage and briefly went through the glove box. i guess they knew the car was armed but took their chances anyway. i don't think it was coincidence that the monday week before my girlfriends supra was broken into. car was armed aswell but the lock was pushed in and ignition hole was damaged. car was still armed but no one heard it go off. nothing got stolen.

so beware!

Lucky my dad is a very light sleeper.

Park car next to his window and bam instant alarm. lol

it also helps i park my car in the driveway and well yeh. Dads a light sleeper.

And i wouldnt want to wake up the gorilla at 3 in the morning.

LOL we I do but thats at 3:30 for work. HAHAHAHA

It also helps to live in a grand parents area.

thats scary stuff, lucky nothing got stolen man, what area is this? north, south?

doesnt matter where you live theives will drive all over the state if they think they can get your ride

when had yound ones in my street idleing in front of my house looking for someone/thing so i purposly set my alarm off to shoo them away it worked a treat

northern suburbs

the thing is i recall a white 180sx that used to be parked up the street now i dont see it.. but i havent driven down that end in a while

i havent had much sleep this week coz im thinking they r gonna come back

ready 4 them this time

im not lucky as some people who can park their cars inside.. we dont have the space :)

OMG!!! :P

How bad is Adelaide at the moment...Geez!!!:P

Its the worst feeling when your car gets broken into and people go through your stuff or even worst stole all together... :thumbsup:

Be Safe guys..but suxs how peeps have no respect for other things and its so crap how you have to be with your car 24/7 just to make sure its safe :)

These new alarms with tracking system might be the way of the future but at $2k a pop and then yearly fee for the tracking it gets a bit much :domokun:

Glad they didnt get your car ....hope your not to stressed out :thumbsup:

man that sucks

i went to melb few weeks ago, parked the GTR at the hotel but ive wound down pfc rpm to 500, peace of mind

my car is in locked up carport inside a 2m tall fence, i think im pretty safe

    • I have done smoke test and can’t see any leak on high or low side.   checked pump and fluid can flow through. Removed the high pressure from steering and did smoke test and same on low side, no leak.   puzzled. Thinking why if it was all ok it suddenly went as car was off road for a year. Don’t want to disassemble pump yet as i can see fluid / air( compressor) can flow through with no issues
    • Which manifold mate? Meanwhile......Mark is wondering how bonnet vents would look on the NC 🤣
    • Actually,  just remembered there should be info in the threads (somewhere) about swapping to a manual steering rack and deleting power steering all together. 
    • Also had a look at the Nissan JP website looks like the 400r has a slightly shorter ratio than than the regular V37 3.133 VS 2.937 which from a guy who has driven both 3.69 vs 4.11 ratios in the S15 is bugger all. Seems that the AUTO Z runs the same ratio as the 400R but can't find any info as to if its an open or LSD? More often than not the auto LSD is open
    • Do not replace the power steering lines with this stuff. If it's anything like the Chase Bays stuff it will leak and be worse than stock. The reason why the reservoir is on the LH/passenger side of the car is because that's just where the reservoir was most convenient to fit. Don't overthink this stuff. The intake/cold side of the engine is pretty busy on these cars. And again, the hardpipe is designed to be a janky power steering cooler. In theory you can replace it with a real power steering cooler but that's really only for track use where boiling the fluid is a distinct possibility. Start with the low pressure lines feeding the pump from the reservoir. Make sure there isn't a bunch of junk in the reservoir filter. Be careful to not get ATF all over the engine bay. I hate dealing with ATF spills, you can clean it up and the slightest crevice will still release more oil that can still drip over time. You also want to inspect for leaks before you make a mess and can't tell what happened. Most likely you have a leak somewhere that is allowing fluid out and air in. Failing that it's allowing air in but not fluid out. Only place I can really see that happening is on the low pressure side because the pump will pull a slight vacuum to draw fluid in. Everything after the pump is high pressure or lower pressure, approaching atmospheric by the time it returns to the reservoir.
