by the way KISIN i really like the way your car is set up. i could tell at a quick glance that you had all the bases covered.

a little sad you have to sell it but you know what they say..family comes first!

at least i know you havent thrashed it and have treated it with respect.

its a damn shame so many others in that state dont think the same way as you do.

Sell car -> finish house renovations -> sell house -> free car on profit made with house.

Wont be log b4 i have another 1 :thumbsup:

yea my r33 gtst was almost stolen about 2 months ago down the road in a church carpark while i was at a wedding!!!! they managed to try to rip the alarm out and just cracked it and they also ran off with my passenger door handle and took a screwdriver to the door ats a mess!!! alarms are a great thing!! made dudes there take some notice to the skyline with its bonnet open!! cops tho didnt do a thing we rang them and they said they couldnt do much just looked for the car which was a black VS ss with stolen plates and 3 teenagers! i have learnt my lesson now as this is the 3rd attempt on my car in the last 6 months!!! i have now got a daily and the skyline hasnt seen the road for awhile till i know its safe and i can still see it in my sights! keep your eyes peeled they are out there!

Lucky someone spotted the bastards. Not good times for us Skyline owners at the moment.

It's been awful reading all these threads over the past few weeks. I'd hate for my baby to get stolen.

Have a bit of a read on this site and also Search You Area

sounds fun but wouldn't make a difference.

if that was the case and people thought twice about commiting a crime if they new there would be a consequence, there would be no crime in the world would there?

When we were younger we had a few issues with 2 areas; police action (or lack of) didn't work.

Vigilante action did. They dissapeared; must of moved area. Either way it appeared to work.

One was a group of surfy bums, another a group of drunken aborigionals.

In this case.. Unless its a group then no. Its near impossible.

This reminds me of my mates brother.....parked his commo at a busy car park for 40 mins to come back and find that his car was on blocks and his very recently purchased 19" where gone.....and this guy paid over 3 grand.....but they were hideous so i think they did him a favour....

seriously crazy that whenever I park my car I have to think about it being taken or wheels stolen.....absolute BS!!!

No matter where you park, if people want to do your car they'll do car, be it in the driveway of your home or at TTP. If you spend most of your time worrying about it, then you really can't enjoy the car for what it is.

I'm with madaz, get insurance, get an alarm, and if it gets nicked start again.

    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
    • The only high-power RB I've personally seen go pop after running for all of an hour on a dyno was built by B2R, while being remotely tuned by B2R. The only wastegates I've ever had leak like a sieve, return, still leak, return and get shipped back the wrong ones were from Turbosmart. The only final drive that I've ever purchased that were unusable, twice... were from Speedtek. The only seat mounts that I've ever purchased that placed the seats in the door frame were from Crank Motorsport. The only poorly designed parts that I had the manufacturer confirm should have been designed as per what I mentioned were from GKTech. The only ECU I've had firmware updates consistently break things are Haltech. The only catch can I've purchased that didn't fit in its advertised spot was from ATP. So forth and so on... Moral of the story, doesn't matter where it's from. Do your research beforehand and stick with products and companies you've trusted in the past.    @joshuaho96 If you want it done right, do it yourself.
    • Something coarse-ish. 180 is good.
    • I was surprised to see all the quick Jack models at the same prices on there. But yeah, grabbing one at 20% off would be great.
