Hey lads anyone else had their car targeted in the last month? 2 attempts on my coupe in the last month. Latest was last saturday night, door key barrell punched through the door.

Cops have got prints, but i'm doubtfull anything will come from it.

Now I need a new door lock and possibly handle.

just a heads up. keep an eye out

that sucks man, but lucky you still have it i guess.

cops wont do jack...even if they have the prints on record. and even if they do, it will be a slap on the wrist and a boot out the door....useless

A mate of mine had his 32 GTS-T flogged from Auchenflower on Friday night. Car was recovered in late last night partially stripped and two guys were arressted I believe. Hopefully it was the same scumbags.

yeah have full comp. i actually fished the barrel out of the door jam and fitted everything back up today. luckily everything looks like its working properly (keys, remote central locking, interior handle and locks). pretty happy I didn't have to replace the barrell, it was not damaged.

Just got to do front roll bar bushes and its going on the market.

At least I know someone wants it :)

Is yours the silver one i see around toowong all the time? I got the white 4 door. Yer mine stays out on the street sometimes overnight when im at my girlfriends, i only trust it cause the alarm system is good enough to stop the average theft.

If you need any parts for the coupe hit me up, also when you do put it up for sale join up on the 31 skyline club. Pretty sure you'll find a buyer

    • Hi Gents, Someone I know (experienced engine builder) built an engine. It had some chinesium rods that came with ARP 2000 bolts. One failed on the dyno, destroyed the whole thing. The only possibilities are: Installation error. Possible, but we should discount it almost 100% because he knows what he's doing. He doesn't discount it that much, because he's being hard on himself. QC/QA problems with ARP products. I'd like to discount this, but I have heard a number of stories about similar failures, and stories of some builders buying 2 sets of everything, x-raying everything, and picking only those bolts that they are completely happy with. This behaviour coming from anecdotal stories of ~1% failure rates. 1% of all rod bolts failing would be about 1000x higher than I would expect to be anywhere near tolerable. If I were ARP I certainly wouldn't even be selling the product if they were dying at that rate (for non-installation error reasons). So, I would prefer to discount that possibility too. Fakes. Specifically, fakes being sold bundled with cheap rods sets from CCP factory B in Shenzen, or wherever the stuff is being made this week. So the question here is, does anyone else have some horror stories that would point to fakes being circulated in this manner?
    • I forget this is an au website, my GTR FS5R30A was 2200 AUD delivered but I did have to go to a warehouse near the port to pick it up myself.
    • Excuse for an epic road trip?  I expect a few people would be thinking of doing that given the price.
