Some fu(kwit tried to break into my car at the Zoo yesterday :( They broke the passenger lock and fu(ked up the door handle... there are also a few scratches and dints... I am so pissed off... only a couple of weeks after the car got badged... no happy...

I wanna replace my car alarm with a full pager type with every conceivable sensor as both times I was within a very short distance of my car... Does anyone know any good alarms and installers... AutoTrust?

I am getting a few performance mods put in on Thursday so now I am really paranoid...

Oh yeah, I called the Zoo to inform them and they told me that there have been a lot of break in's as of late so don't park your car there...

Sorry to hear. I hate these little kunts. My window is still a bit f**ked from my break in.

How do those pager thingys work? Can you get it to call your phone or do you carry around a beeper or something?

The remote for the alarm has a little screen that warns you of intrusion...

Sorry to hear. Just to add to the zoo thing - a guy that works here for me had his car stolen from the zoo car park last week.

I think something could be said in favour of relocating the lions den to the the zoo car park!

Actually thats totally farked. If they KNOW dodgy shite is going on there you'd think they actually DO something rather than just say "yeah we know"

As for the pager - the only ones I know of are the boomerang and the blackwidow one available from zylux. If danny can do another one Id like to know about it because I want to get a pager alarm as well. (there was talk that someone was going to make a pager alarm that works through your mobile - anyone know about this?)

I read in a Hot 4's issue that there are alarms that use your mob as the pager, but i think they have on going costs...

shit sorry about your car Evil. Your car had a really nice paint job... anyway I saw u drove around Sunshine Tuesday (I think ) anyway, If I were u, I wouldn't get the pager alarm ones...well the old models. My friends got em on their cars and the liquid screen will be damaged by the keys hanging with it. I know boomerang sucks and I installed a Nemesis on my car and I had major problems...if u want more info or wanna look @ my alarm, just pm me :)

      @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣

      I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia.

      Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.

      R33 fuel setup

      I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).

      As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
