That's excessively paranoid.

I'm happy to display my car in public. I don't paint my address on the windshield, I don't tell people what type of alarm it has, I don't tell them how often I drive it, where I drive it, nor where I park it.

Then when I'm done not telling people what I do with my car, I get it home, park it in a lock up garage, arm the alarm, and sleep peacefully knowing that should the worst come to pass, Adelaide is a small place, and it's fully insured... Just in case.

None of my Skylines ever got broken into nor even close and every one I've had has been regularly entered into show and shines and driven on a near daily basis.

for peace of mind i swap my plates to another set of plates i have here, and put a little bit of tape over the vin number etc. and ive never had any theft related issues

haha yeah a bit paraniod. i used to be in a couple clubs that would regularly have parts stolen from the display cars, even while we were standing there guarding them... small car sunday, autosalon, here and interstate....

I have had my cars in about 200 shows around the country and have never lost a thing off them , i must be very unlucky !

Unofficial cruise from my place at 7am :) if you don't know where I live, don't ask, just be somewhere along North East Road just after 7am and listen for the rumble...

    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
    • Shall we... wake you up when September ends?

    • Welcome Mark. Do you have a Skyline or are you looking to get one?
