a couple of weeks ago i was parked outside my bedroom window and at exactly 6am wednesday my alarm went off.

i ran outside naked lol and chased the guy down cross road but lost him in the back streets. when i got back to my car this is what i found :D.

keep in mind these photos where taken after the cops dusted for finger prints.

they bent the steel out on the drivers door handle, damaged the rear left quarter under the window (trying to pop out the window) they also stuck something into the boot lock, then they tried to pop the passanger door handel out and tried sticking something between the door and the panel and tried to bend the door out, and in the end they smashed the passenger window and took off when i came out to kill them. and thanks to pearce crash repairs it only cost me $400 to fix it all cos im to lazy to do it myself.

and the new window came courtesy of Z IMPORTS-wally is the best.

that's horrible man, glad it's sorted now though.

By the looks of what they've done though, they can't have been that bright. As trying to pry off a door handle would work to open it, but just take far too long, and they probably would have gone through just as lengthy a process trying to start the car

thats almost exactly like what happened to my car. the tried to pop the rear window out on both sides and ripped my door handle out, bent all the seals etc.

what area was this in? ttg or modbury way?

the cops wouldnt even come out to have a look at my car yet there were finger prints everywhere. your pretty lucky!

sorry to see about your car though!

Similar to what happened to my car once, although its nowhere near as bad as that... seems like someone was trying to pull out the lock with screwdriver... when the alarm went off he ran away and had to settle for the gt badges, lol...

Directed Electronics dual zone motion sensor ftw. Stops scums before they even try to do any shit to your car.

yeah those were some dumb ass criminals, trying to steal a car that was only 5 metres from where you were sleeping! :D

yeah there are some stuipid people in adelaide ive heard of this guy called dr_hoon45 lol hi chris long time no see

as soon as i read it, thats exactly what i thought too kye :S

glad to hear you got out of it not too bad mate. And lets hope they get whats coming to them soon.

How much that cost you champ?

it only set me back $400 and he even fixed a little dent on the rear right :thumbsup: heres some pics. ill get is sprayed after i throw on a gtr front end

the work that was done included straightening all the primed parts and preping and priming, rebuilding all the locks inlcuding the boot lock (as they were all destroyed internally and i didnt want to have to change the ignition to match the rest), replacing the passanger window which was supplied by wally at Zimports and cleaning all the glass out of the car, all was completed overnight. pearce crash repairs are bloody legends.

    • That ring thing is interesting how it's holding everything together 
    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
