rapidroy Posted July 19, 2010 Author Share Posted July 19, 2010 I'm not sure if the steering wheel lock would slow them down... What do the forum members think?

Jpower Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 It's quite sad that the Police target imports through defects etc... And then there are thieves who target imports just for parts etc... I have sworn to myself to never park in any of the car parks in the city. EVER. Had similar experience at the Entertainment Centre carpark. Attempted but never got anywhere since I had an alarm / immobilizer and steering wheel lock. Best of luck with it but it is common knowledge that these carparks in the city are swarming with teams of car thieves who target imports etc. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/329117-1000-reward/page/2/#findComment-5355325 Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatwabbit Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Newbie question... can you just buy a car alarm and have it installed yourself? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/329117-1000-reward/page/2/#findComment-5356716 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiR_RB Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 sorry to hear, im always out n about all over syd will keep and eye out for you... my brother inlaw nearly had his r33 gtr series 3 stolen to star city last year, they broke into it, and managed to get up 2 floors (near the exit) the immobiliser stopped them from the driving car, but we suspect they had another car pushing it form behind as his rear bar was scratched. the security guard wasnt helpful and didnt say much. we suspect an inside job Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/329117-1000-reward/page/2/#findComment-5356905 Share on other sites More sharing options...
some_cs_student Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Newbie question... can you just buy a car alarm and have it installed yourself? Yes you could, but you probably wouldn't do a very good job unless your an auto electrician. The alarm install is more important than an alarm, but in some cases nothing is going to stop a thief, eg. if they have a tow truck.

rapidroy Posted July 25, 2010 Author Share Posted July 25, 2010 I learned my lesson on parking a car in the CBD... If I get another GTR, I will never park it down there...

Deano 1 Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 i never park my car full stop... i cruise it, than park it back in my garage. if i go out for dinner i wont take it unless i can park it out the front of the place and be siting with it in sight at all times. Theres just too many losers out there. If you can afford a GTR you can afford a 1000buc daily driver to hack around in.

bozodos Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 the thing with a club lock is that it slows the f**kers down. I use one on mine (a decent $60 dollar one) in conjunction with an immobiliser and loud alarm, due to the amount of abos who steal cars around here (including my old mans). Also have floodlights in the front and back yards. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/329117-1000-reward/page/2/#findComment-5364913 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTR-N1 Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Yeah, if the five-0 can't do anything about it (because maybe they're in on it), perhaps a seemingly elderly couple in an innocuous turbocharged Foz could lie in wait for someone to break into a GT-R or STi (as bait); and then us oldies could gun it... ...and block off their escape. Got a couple of UHF radios too. Now Genelle, all we need is a nice smick GT-R + young dudes in running shoes... ...terry trots off to check on how to orchestrate a Citizen's Arrest!

NXTIME Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Do you have pics of the car? A steering lock is easy to get thru - they just cut the steering wheel. I hate to say it, but Skylines rarely get found once they are stolen, and if they are found, there isn't much left of them. I hope you had decent insurance cover.
