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.

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 :thumbsup:

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.

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.

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.

My mate had his wrx stolen from that car park last week.

That place is dodgy!

In that case, I wonder what the LAC can reveal in the car-theft-stats !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That'll reveal how dodgy it is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That stakeout (+ bait) idea still seems intriguing - hmmm...

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... :P:):(:cool:

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.

      Its also very clearly made to take business away from https://theskylineshed.com/ which is legitimate and even has a physical address.

      The 'About Us' got me ..  I added something to the cart and clicked 'check out' and none of the payment options in the footer (ie those with buyer protection) were available. Stay the hell away from this one.

      R32gtst rear wheel bearing

      No. Not true for any non-GTR R32. I think even the GTS4 has the GTSt knuckles with eye type lower shock mounts (as opposed to GTR fork lower shock mounts). The only R chassis in which something like the quote claim is true is the R34, on which the turbos have the fork type and the NAs have the eye type. **Edit: Actually I reserve the right to be wrong about the above statement. It might also be true on R33s. My memory on those shitboxen has faded too much.

      It's a scam. It has all the telltale signs: - The "business" doesn't have a physical address or really any kind of information listed - It's using a generic online store website template - The prices are ridiculously reduced. To good to be true cheap - Everything is in stock and can be ordered in any possible combination   I've seen a few of these for other products as well. Things like sunglasses for example. I'd say stay away from it! And maybe reach out to the real theskylineshed and let them know this exists. I doubt there is much they can do about it, but still.   I don't know if they would actually take your money if you ordered something. Or whether it is just for collecting credit card details to scam otherwise. I'm not game or stupid enough to try it.
