haha.. i jus unplug my battery or port the short breaker. even the pro's dont think oh hell his unplugged the battery. also removing a certain thing in the engine bay (not gonna say as i don trust you guys) will stop someone stealing ya car unless they tow it ofcourse but still good luck to them starting it. bahaha and no you wouldnt be able to steal it so dont suggest it unless you have a tow truck handy lol..

but regawrdless deck your car with alarms. and also get a throttle lock sits under the peddle and stops it from being pushed down meaning they can start it but not move it. they could easily remove it in 5 mins but hell in 5 mins id be there will a base ball bath and beating the life out of them.

Don't mean to hijack your thread, but im just curious how thieves get through conventional security devices, e.g. steering wheel locks and wheel clamps are they difficult to get past at all?

common tools will take care of most of them. not going into detail but a bit of thought into your question will answer it.

rekin,

pretty much summed it up there. I tend to look for the noise and then move on.

that wont stop anyone, a tow truck fixes that problem in 30 seconds or less.

Thats true but if they come unprepared there screwed. it will deter most thieves which would be a plus.but as everyone says if a pro wants your car he ll take it.also if they do get away with it the lock is a biatch to get off. but like i say no security is full proof

aye!!

i installed my immobilizer and in doing so pretty much found out how easy it is to steal one with out it, personally, immobilizer plus insurance is as far as im goin, itll stop dumbshits, and anyone smart enough to get round it will treat your car with absolute respect after they've stolen it :)

just try not to advertise your car as theft worthy. or have super sweet stupid alarm with theyll get by and the cops arent goin to be too much help once theyve made off with it neways.

I also used to have this problem, and my work was pretty far away from my home so public transport was not an option. And doing nothing hoping for the bset is not for me either. I solved it for myself by applying Xeoma to monitor the parking lot. It's simply great ! now I'm feeling safe, go on and try it guys

    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.
