Well i think this is the third time that i have posted a break in for my car, and guess what guys? doesnt get any easier. It seems that a factory complex with security fences and gates isnt safe to keep your car locked up in.

Some prick or pricks have had a good attempt at it this time, sound system is gone and car is in bit of a mess, wont know how much until my mechanic has a look, which cant happen until the cops finger print it, which thankfully they will be.

Car was as said, locked up at my work in Ingleburn, but i am guessing it has been worked over by someone i work with or in the neighbouring factories. Our complex was completely locked up over the weekend and you wouldnt have been able to see the car if you walked past the factory.

Anyway i will keep you all informed and let you know if the cops actually get anything or if i am proper fooked!!

i don't know of the current statistics, but from past experience and stories from the folks, I keep getting reminded that most of the time the wrongs that have been done to you are usually done by people you know and trust....

but what can you do????

hope you get the prick who stuffed your car up

I really hope you get teh scumbags that did this. Makes me sick that people could deliberately want to hurt somone this way hey. Same with murdering someone..but that's a different kettle of fish lol (was watching Crime Investigation Australia on the weekend)

When a car ie. car owner gets worked over this many times, the insurance company often calls an investigator to interview you.

Qs include how many keys have you got, show me the keys, what were your movements before/during/after the time of damage/theft, who do you know that knows where your car was, have you had an insurance claim before, what were those circumstances, who else in your family knows about where your car was parked, explain what security measures you have on the car. yaddayadda.

Investigators come across in a fashion as to assume you're guilty and for you to prove your innocence. They record an interview with up to 3X machines simultaneously.

Anyway, I hope that this gets cleared up without the messiness of an investigator (usually a PI in his standard role).

welcome to my world

3rd time for me too

but i am doing something about it this time :(

Just out of curiosity

what exactly are you "doing" about it.

im guessing you now know whom it is and have thought up some unsavoury way to get back at them :P

Well perhaps some good news, cops have finger printed, two prints one with gloves the other good enough to try for a match.

Fingers crossed they can catch the piece of shit.

I have tried, alarm and the works is my protection, stopped them for the third time so i guess i shouldnt be too upset.

Will keep everyone informed.

Well looks like i may be able to find out who did it. Asked around a bit and one dude i knows rekons he knows exactly who did it... hopefully he isnt spinning shit.

On a interesting note, there is a group running round the Ingleburn Industrial area knocking off cars and parts out of the cars. They apparently did over a blue R34 round the same time as mine, if anyone knows who it is tell them to PM me and if i get a name, i will pass it on for you. If you know anyone round the area, tell them to keep their cars locked up tight!!

Another update when i know more and decide whether or not to go renegade on these pricks or slip the names to the police.

As wrong as it is to take the law into your own hands....slipping the name to the cops does shit all unless you can slip them a firm case with evidence and witnesses etc (basically do their job for them) - I'm sure you know a friends who knows a guy who knows a bikey gang :) just tell em they have been knocking of harlys and they will be all over em :P

but keep us posted man!

who wants to bet the cops don't do anything even if they find a match for the prints ? I'll give you 10:1 odds.

Best thing you can do for yourself, your family and your car is move to a better neighbourhood. Yes I know, not an easy thing to do but neither is putting up with crime all your life. I wouldn't live in Campbelltown or Ingleburn areas if you paid me (and I'm easily persuaded with money!!)

why dont you install some internal screamers in different locations... maybe some 130db ones... so even if they get in, they cant bare the noise and will damage their hearing if the noise is sustained long enough...

just make sure you are careful and dont set off your alarm when in the car.. that shit hurts

Speak to Daniel @ Platinum PPI

He's got a lot of good options and he's very good at making tricky unique installs.

      Fender flare widths across front/back of car

      By AdiR34 · Posted

      Hey y'all! I'm curious about how y'all go about widebodying your cars. I noticed that when running a square setup, my front wheels are a bit more tucked in than my rear wheels. Not by much, maybe 5-10mm. This leads me to wonder - when I widebody, should I use narrower front flares and wider rear flares? I found a set of 40mm rear flares that I really like, and was thinking of pairing them with some 18mm front flares, but I don't want the car to look strange. How have others done this? Note, I'm in a sedan. Thanks!

      And if it was anything other than an auto tranny part, it might be a problem. But seeing as all auto trannies belong in the recycling bin, it's fine.

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By dbm7 · Posted

      All the schemas I can see, indicate your typical setup of ATF 'cooler' (read: heat exchanger) in the bottom radiator tank..ie; https://nissan.epc-data.com/stagea/wgnc34/5413-rb25det/engine/214/ ...but I can prattle on a bit here. These trannies have a thermistor in the sump ~ the TCU reads this and 1. bumps the line pressure up when the ATF is 'cold' and 2. prevents the TC lockup clutch from operating, until the ATF comes up to minimum operating temp (keeps the ATF 'churning' through the TC so it heats up quicker) -- trigger point is around 55C. In these conditions, the engine coolant temperature rises faster than the ATF temperature, and also helps heat the ATF up, which is why it's best to think of the in radiator tank setup as a heat exchanger ; the heat can flow in both directions... ...with these trannies, the 'hot' ATF comes out the front banjo bolt, flows through the cooler/heat exchanger, and returns to the box  via the rear banjo bolt. This gets a mention, due to the wildly different opinions wrt running auto trans fluid coolers ~ do you bypass the in radiator tank altogether, or put the cooler inline with the in radiator tank system...and then, do you put the additional cooler before of after the in radiator tank system?... ....fact is the nominal engine operating temp (roughly 75C), happens to be the ideal temperature for the ATF used in these trannies as well (no surprises there), so for the in radiator tank system to actually 'cool' the ATF, the ATF temp has to be hotter than that...lets say 100C -- you've got 25C of 'excess' heat, (slowly) pumping into the 75C coolant. This part of the equation changes drastically, when you've got 100C ATF flowing through an air cooled radiator ; you can move a lot more excess heat, faster ~ it is possible to cool the ATF 'too much' as it were...(climate matters a lot)... ...in an 'ideal' setup, what you're really trying to control here, is flash heating of the ATF, primarily produced by the TC interface. In a perfect world, wrt auto trans oil cooling, you want a dedicated trans cooler with builtin thermostatic valving - they exist. These should be run inline and before the in radiator tank system ~ when 'cold' the valving bypasses the fin stack, allowing the ATF to flow direct to the in radiator tank heat exchanger, so it works 'as intended' with helping heat the ATF up. When 'hot' (iirc it was 50C threshold), the valving shuts forcing the ATF through the cooler fin stack, and onto the in radiator tank heat exchanger...and you sort of think of it as a 'thermal conditioner' of sorts...ie; if you did cool your ATF down to 65C, the coolant will add a little heat, otherwise it works as intended... ...the 'hot' ATF coming from the front bango bolt, is instantiated from the TC when in use, so all/any flash heated oil, flows to the fluid-to-air cooler first, and because of the greater heat differential, you can get rid of this heat fast. Just how big (BTU/h) this cooler needs to be to effectively dissipate this TC flash heat, is the charm...too many variables to discuss here, but I just wanted to point out the nitty-gritty of automatic trans fluid coolers ~ they're a different beastie to what most ppl think of when considering an 'oil cooler'... /3.5cents
