Just thought I would share my experience with people who probably don't care what happens in my life but I thought it was interesting none the less, a few months ago 4 cars in my complex were broken into a brand new Alfa Romeo, a new Subaru sedan and a Accord none of which has security systems installed but these guys must have been pro's they managed to jimmy the lock for the alfa and accord although they did end up bending part of the frame of the door of the Alfa (unfortunately the owner started his contents insurance from Shannon's the day AFTER the incident (he asked them specifically to start it the day after)) but for some reason they couldn't get into the Subaru so they smashed the window, how they did all this in the silence of the night and no one waking up to hear them is beyond me. They raided for any small things of value (GPS's, Laptops, Phones, Wallets, ipods etc.) and the most ironic thing I found is that my car was the only one with a full fledged alarm system...except...I FORGOT TO ARM IT!! *DOH* domokun.gif... luckily, the reason my car was unlocked was because I went down to get my wallet and forgot to rearm and relock it! This turned out to be one of the best things I could of done, because of that they went through my entire car and didn't take a thing! Leaving my baby unharmed! They left all my expensive Kincrome and other tools in the trunk (guess it wasn't worth it to them) and my very expensive leather jacket!!!....So moral of this story leave your car unlocked pinch.gif.....(the front gate was closed so they couldn't steal it even if they wanted too lol)

Yeah, similar thing happened to me a few months ago too.

I went out to the car to grab something at like 9pm but forgot to arm it. Then I went back out to the car at 11pm, with papers and stuff everywhere.

They went through my glove box and centre console, ALL they took was my $50 walkie talkie lol.

I had my GPS on the floor and my iPod in my din, but I guess it was too dark and they wouldn't see it? lol

I was lucky though, because if it was someone that knows what they are doing, they coulda taken like 3k worth of stuff lol

      braided lines for the turbos

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy Haven't really thought of that yet, but you are right. If the hose was damaged it should be absolutely pissing by now. I'll put some heat sleeve around it for good measure since I'm already removing the line anyway.  Maybe I'll put on some of the stock hardlines if I ever fully remove the turbos again. Maybe when T51R modding the compressor housings? Might be a fun mod on GT28s for that "fake single turbo" effect.

      Update 1: I did some work on the car already before finalizing this post and my "issues" list. I dropped the Tomei exhaust in favor of the HKS Hi Power Silent. Sounds nice and I can actually hear myself think now. Also gives me a realistic chance to legally drive without silencer inserts. A bit of cheating was necessary to still be able to mount the Top Secret style diffuser. Some malusage of washers and a bit of "convincing" toward the brackets and exhaust hanger seemed to do the trick. The shaky steering wheel has been resolved as various suspension components were worn, like sway bar bushings and link bars. Most notably the two steering tie rod ends. Had some trouble finding bushings because my sway bars are not OEM thickness, 23.x up front and 27 rear. But non adjustable, so no aftermarket I suppose. Maybe they are nismo units? Turbo oil drain hoses were definitely still the originals and are new now. Wasn't the cause of the turbo oil leak sadly. Currently removing the rear turbo because of it, I suspect the braided oil feed line is the culprit. This issue needs to be dealt with so I can work towards actually getting the turbo setup legal and inspected. Two new issues to add to the list as well. Rear Main seal is probably leaking. Time will show how bad it is, I don't really want to drop the gearbox right now just for the stupid seal. Could fix a few other things in one go once I do that. Front right driveshaft grease is going past the cv boot, so at some point I'll fix that too.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok so no 4cyl clutch... Yeah it is a factory manual. So if iam correct i need clutch and flywheel too? I can use something that suits something like R32 GTST?   EDIT: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224291042776 Is this ok?   EDIT2: i maybe forget to mention this(dk how important it is) but the trans will be behind RB25DET NEO(iam doing swap) It will be there for a little while. Iam planing to do bigbox or BMW tranny..

      You're probably right about that one. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope I don't need a new 3rd brake light. Although wiring issues might arguably be worse. Right now I'm in the midst of a turbo removal because of my oil leak, other problems are going to have to wait for now.

      Hell, I know that much. So far I just put it off as "part of the deal".
