Stayed at my gf's last night and woke up this morning to find my 32 had been broken into. Just what i wanted to wake up to on christmas morning. i live in the malvern area, usually a very safe area and uncommon for this kind of stuff. It happened around 5am. Got my ipod stolen which isnt a big problem but they f**ked my lock on my door. My cars got an immobilser and alarm, which went off when they got in... My gf's mum saw the car, but couldnt see plates or anything.. said it was a loud silver sedan with 2 males.

Then this arvo... I was out the front of my house, and saw a really suspicious silver mitsubishi lancer, older model with a shit exhaust, too ethnic males in the car... They drove past my cousins 32 gtr and my 32... stopped, turned around and left. car meets the description which worries me they are going to try and steal the car tonight or in the coming time.

I heard that there was heaps of cars getting broken into last night in my area tho. 5 cars in Nyora street in East Malvern around the corner from my house were broken into. just wondering if anyone else had any problems last night??? Or has had any problems like it???

i would rather my car be stolen and torched and written off, then for someone to smash my window's attempt to steal my shit and end up costing me $$$ to fix. rather just get a payout and move on...

try blocking your 32 with another car so they dont steal it.

nah... i'd rather pay a few hundred to replace an ipod and a window or lock then have a car stolen, its not as nice as you think, you get investigated by insurance company, they take thier sweet time to pay you, after making you feel like a criminal... and then you pay $$$$$ more to insure your next car because of the theft claim, no one to blame.. so you loose the rating.

not to mention having to find yourself a new car!

no thanks, ... having said that...i would also hate my car to be broken into, not nice... especially around christmas time! sorry to hear mate

grrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!! f***ing basturds!!!!!! sleep in the damm thing so they will have to steal it with u in it... its amazing what this world is turning into, i mean its ur pride n joy n all pple wanna do is ruin that

ive had enough of these pricks, they broke in to my car last week and took my g/friends xmas stuff i had in the car so she would not see them befor i could wrap them, so f%^&ing pissed off and all the coppers could say is maybe you should get a better car and alarm. but then what could they do they are not everywhere at every second so i just have to cop it on the chin. sorry to hear mate what are you after to fix the car

that sucks dude, did u manage to get the rego of that car u saw? hope they catch those pricks

Nah, didnt catch the rego... was a lil drunk, so couldnt see the plates.

hahahahaha! now thats how its done, but even still prevention is the best defense, be smart bout where every1 parks their cars, alarms, immobilisers, insurance, nothing visually left in sight for theft... neighbourhood watch ftw lol :D

Sorry to hear of your bad luck mate, sounds like you need to give your gf's neighbours a heads up if only for their benefit so their stuff doesn't get jacked.

I manage an apartment block in the next street we have had people loitering in the foyer and also a burglary recently, it seems there are quite a few more of these instances lately.

My area is normally pretty good. But my bro's r34 was broken into a few months ago because he didn't take his gps off his windscreen so they broke the window and took it. Now both our cars are parked in the garage with my mums 4wd parked behind the overnight. Can't really trust anyone these days.

    • Nah it factory manual not sure about ratio but it looks like there’s been some work at the rear 
    • so I need a new speedo cable 
    • Throwing my spoon to the soup here a bit.  When I installed a 044 back in 2012, along with the direct power mod, the car became very difficult to start. To a point I burned one starter motor as I was late for work and tried to get the thing going. With some tuning and careful use of gas pedal when cranking it became bearable. Trying to make this short as possible, but the 044 died after 2-3 years, after which I went with an AEM 320lph pump, which also died after about 4 years to my dismay. After that I went with a Nismo pump, and while trying diagnose an emissions problem, I noticed for the first time that my fuel pressure was 5bar/72psi on idle, and that removing the vacuum line did nothing. After monitoring the situation, and removing the direct power feed and going back to FPCM in attempts to remedy it, I noticed there was fuel in the pressure regulator vac line. Kept the FPCM, installed AEM external regu and the car became sooo much better in every way, including starting. And I had driven it like it was for 11 years.. Anyway, I agree these are likely two different problems, and the FP problem you just haven't noticed before. I do not know much about haltecs, but what first came to mind was the CAS, which probably is not there any more. So how is the wiring from haltec to gauge cluster? How is the battery voltage and alternator?
    • Your car was auto before? You have different diff ratio (auto vs manual i think? or n/a and turbo?)
    • +1 for getting a screen off alibaba, CarPlay/Android Auto is vastly better than whatever navigation cars had 10 years ago. I got an Android screen for my 2015 BMW, huge difference. Fully compatible with factory stuff including iDrive controls.
