its my car thats been stolen.

there was a white vr or vs berlina/ calais out the front that waited around near my house. my mate had that same car out front of his when they tried to take his r32

so if your car gets stolen possibly look out for a white commo

i had shannon's 3rd party thinking they corverd fire and theft.. but no

had an alarm. and my car had no muffler straight drift pipes was so so loud. and yet they managed to take off so so quiet. dident help i needed new sparkplugs so my car was sounding shit so i figured it wasnt my car.

yea when i rang the cops they said wel send out a squad car to my house and i said why the cars not here. i said i was going to leave the house so no one will be home. cops reccomended someone stay home and i said i reccomend someone drive around and find my car.

they said even if they did see it theres not much they could do because like most skylines they have no chance of catching it

looks like another onslaught of import theft, There was a theft of a wrx and a soarer stolen from croydon TAFE last week, supposedly 3 lads rocked up in a black stagea.

Even the 32 track car in my shed behind locked doors, locked gates and 2 Bull mastif X has an alarm :)

Photo of it? I know a few people who drive adelaide at all hours of day ( tow truck drivers)who can keep a look out ?

And i drive that area a fair bit

hope you get in back in one peice not to rub salt in the wounds cause i would string them up by left nut if i caught em

Funny enough I

Heard alarms and dogs barking about the same time this morning and i had a commo vr vs in white stalking my house area for weeks on and off , i had the rego written down somewhere cause i thought the police should visit them if it continued

Did the alarm go off ?

Was it on street or front yard ? Or garaged ? Just curious how they walked off so easy with it

You know sapol will defect it for drift pipes and smoked headlights now ? Here is a saying " just because you can doesnt mean you should" i love the sound and smoked lights but know better

Loud pipes, big sub booming is like a pied piper for crims , i learned the hard way a long time ago

for the same reason not to bass where you park or attract with loud pipes

Full cover insurance !!!!

Before anyone does a lot of mods , buy gps tracking and use it , less then 250 bucks and a bit of phone credit and you can stop crims anywhere in the world that has phone or internet service

You can shut the car down from your phone by a simply sms , it tells you in very detailed info about the speed, location etc of the car so you can shut it down next time it stops or is moving slow

You could cause it to throw on traction control or strobe lights etc , or even video the driver live !!

Im not trying to be a dick to you just tired of car theft in this town/ country its insane for the amount of population here

Best of luck will keep eyes out , chuck up a photo

Not to single you out big fella but never tell anyone your security situation not even Best mates , now crims can prepare to get past your protection with ease

If crims keep getting surpises they tend to move on to easier pickings

A multi layer security is best and even better if they get scared away before anything happens

So you may want to add another layer suprise now just cause its gone global ?

Which unit is that cheap Troy? Most of the ones I know of are quiet a bit more expensive! There's always the possibility of an ultra low powered pc with 3g/gps logging the exact location to google maps.

I've had 2 attempts on my car in that area in the last month but haven't seen the commodore.

Defiantly sounds like its worth reporting this and having a talk to SAPOL.

Yeah gps is a great idea! Where and what type is good? Aparenty the car that got seen leaving was an old magna with silver trim at base

The ebay gps car trackers last time i checked cost 199 free shipping easy to install but you must hide in a secure place not right behind the alarm lol

another option is not a pc , old iphone or sim smart phone ,hard wired and buried in car , plus you can bluetooth the music and video to a lot of radios bonus , on standby it has a battery backup that could last days or even a week depending on the settings

A strobe mounted in the cluster and under the car in tranny tunnel or cradle and nobody will take te car , too hard or get at or your blind seeing dots

Iohone you could facetime the crims to say hello , a iphone 4 you can move the tiny camera to cluster facing crim by extending the wires on the plug , the camera module is as big as your pinky finger nail in size and the camera hole is tiny so it would be hard to notice

You can get the viper / python/ clifford/ autopage and other brands smart phone gps tracking but they charge a fee yearly and the gps module is 350 plus install

You can buy stick on magnetic gps as well , not any bigger then small phone , not perm

But usable still snd under a hundred on ebay

Gps good ones

Has external 3g and sat antenna

Battery backup

Programing features

Trigger for alarms etc

Small but has heatsink chassis

Update from usb or pc at min

Geofence

Speed alert

And it must use a standard sim card for phones on the right freq for your carrier , australia uses a few different freq for carriers ( not compatable with usa equipment ) telstra is a good choice for sim cards fhey have the most towers but of course they cost more prepaid

you could buy a plan of just sms ? If your serious and dont want it to expire when needed most ?

Gps tracking is worldwide steve

And the viper remote is in use here now, autobarn sels it

Watch for legality of viper remote start function not 100% if its adr approved yet

Gps is legal in the freeworld and used everyday

The gps your thinking of is the lojack which is usa only

thats half the benefit, it's not my car :) plus i never give away all of my security secrets ;)

generally it's pretty obvious that the cats are locked and the dogs are there, not really a secret, you can hear the dogs and see the gate, lol
