R34 GT-T at Tooronga Station, Malvern


Recommended Posts

To whichever lucky sod owns the Grey/Silver R34 ( complete with SAU stickers ) which parks at Tooronga Station, a word of warning:

I often see your car at the station in the arvos when I get off the train. Last night some dodgy character was scoping it out.

He looked in the windows and watched it from a distance so I watched him from a distance. He soon noticed me looking at him and he bailed.

I dunno if he planned to break in but I thought I'd mention it.

Cheers,

E

Hes playing with fire leaving it parked at a train station all day everyday!!

I gotta agree there mate. Its always parked in the same spot. Not in the Station carpark but outside it on the street. Very conspicuous. Well, I always notice it.

i remember reading once that a large % of car theft and breakins are from train stations... Bit silly to park any car there, never mind a nice 34

you're best off buying an unregistered crapper for $200 and driving to the station every day i think..

it will be hard to steal a car even if it is parked outside a train station in broad daylight. I dont know..

u recon?? after the morning rush at the train station, there is no 1 there very easy for a thief to steel a car in the middle of the day!

ahhhh...funny. It can take a thief less than a couple of minutes to disable even the fanciest alarm system. And how many people at a station really pay any attention to what is going on in the carpark?

you may as well just leave it parked at a shopping centre each day as well... with a big STEAL ME on the window..

but surely there wil be ppl walking around, cars zooming by.. ppl frm their houses looking out .

actually, i don't u'd need to, as another large % of cars stolen are stolen from shopping centres..

Anyway, my point is if you leave your skyline at a shopping centre for long periods of time or train station BAD BAD BAD BAD

Ok firstly, the 34 is never in the carpark, its always on the street outside the carpark. ( easy getaway )

Secondly, how many times have you heard an alarm go off and taken notice? Actually, how many times have you heard an alarm?

Most alarms go off and nobody ever flinches unless the alarm keeps them awake.

Guys, now i am worried.

I park in on the road rather than the in the station so cars coming pass can see it and anyone trying to break in.

I guess I will have to collect my car now and drive into work... damn petrol and parking costs.

    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
