I am sure some of you already know about this (and there might be other posts on this matter - but I haven't read any)

There is a group going across sydney apartments breaking in to cars and taking everything.

They hit the apartment across the road from me two weeks ago, 80+ cars had smashed windows and anything of value was taken from inside. This is from underground 'secure' car parks with video surveillance. I am pissed that management did not bother to tell us the place across the road had been done, and so had others in the area.

The main reason I rented this apartment was because of the security parking - 2 security gates to drive in/out of the carpark.

My apartment building was hit Thursday night, and at first count 57 cars were broken into (that came from the window repair duder who was the only one that is coming out on top from all of this - so there were probably more that haven't had them fixed yet).

The little bastards broke through a fire door and must have had someone on lookout, but they got a lot of stuff - mainly GPS units, cash, sunnies and the like.

The window bloke said it has been happening all across sydney lately and he has never been so busy (but I don't think he is behind it all haha)

I am really really lucky that I ordered the wrong cams for my car and because of that, it was not ready in time to be picked up last Thursday.

They seemed to know what they were doing as they smashed front and rear windows in cars with alarms so they didnt have to open doors to check front and back.

Has anyone else had the same thing happen near them recently?

Same thing happened to a mate of mine. "Security" car park in unit block, lots of windows smashed including his R33. Pennant hills area.

Sucks big time...

Apparently they have been doing apartments too - whilst people are home too. The cops said its getting really bad at the moment.

I am not bringing my car home from the workshop because of this, and have moved expensive items from my apartment.

I move out in 3 weeks just need to not get robbed before then - super paranoid

And yes I have insurance - but huge excess.

Those "security" car parks are not in the least bit secure. I've had my wheels stolen from a previous place I lived in.

I thought you would have left for Queensland by now Heath? Get going!

I am going as fast as I can, 17 days to go, can't wait.

Car wont be ready though, it will be trucked up later/

Same thing happened to me when I lived in Chippendale (Ultimo area) but that was about 8 months ago.. we got them on camera but cops couldnt do much.. they hit at 2.30am on saturday night..

These guys knew they were on tape, looked straight at the cameras and stuck their fingers up. Wearing hoodies and sunnies.

I had no idea it was this bad in Sydney.

Happened to a mate of mine not too long ago, maybe 3 weeks. "Secured" apartment underground parking got broken into and they got into 30+ cars. Nobody saw or heard anything...

This happened a week after he moved into the place.

Some f**k stick tried to break into the house accross from home last night but the dogs were enuf to wake us. He was last seen running his ass off.

They should be hung. Honest people are getting shafted by them and are most likely paying their dole check. They are diceing with death these wankers.

That's a bitch.. I'm about to move out into an apartment but I think I'm going to ensure I get an older place which has a single lockup garage so I can install some extra security measures of my own..

My car's fully insured but it's all about the hassle.. I don't want to have to go through the whole process of getting the car fixed just because some scumbags decided they like my stereo system enough to steal it

Happened at my work maybe a month and a bit ago they just smashed windows and took nothing really valuable at all just mainly causing damage. My mate was on duty he went down there and attempeted to take him down but was threaened if he came any closer he would f**king stab him. He said he looked like a junky off the street chased him all the way through the city while on the phone to police biut not getting to close as he didnt wana get stabbed.

Happened when a resident came home and he snuck under the security gate as it was almost closed.

SCUM

Our apartment block got hit last night.. They hit the main garage and the one near the lifts.. They must of missed the GTR thank god becuase it was parked behind a ute. Apparently they took one of the buzzers from one of the cars.. It's a "secure car park" too..

Someone needs to stop this asap!

If they have a buzzer, they'll be back. Get the cars out ASAP

    • Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads  
    • Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything 
    • Hmmm interesting. Mine is the exact same and clearly the right one.  The mystery of the engine oil being full after 3.5-4L continues
