Hi all,

Some lowlifes broke into my 32 the other night trying to steal her. Little did they know it's not my daily and the battery lives in my shed ;)

So long story short, they ripped the drivers door handle half out breaking the lock from the inside of the door, then stuffed the ignition barrel and broke the steering column housing before realising it was never going to start and bailing.

Has anyone had this happen to their 32 before? How did you go about getting the parts replaced and fitted? did you order everything from Nissan ex Japan or did you source from wreckers before handing over to a mechanic/panel beater? I'm also wondering how I would go about getting the keys to match all locks and ignition again once everything is replaced?

Cheers

What town was it in ?

Sadly you just let them know to bring a battery tonight ? lock it up hardcore now!!

it also sugguests you dont have alarm or non functional

Remember this is a worldwide forum unlocked to crims !!

The locks can be rekeyed easy

Mangled plastics swapped out

Door pounded back and resprayed if meeded

Buy some door lock plates to make the area stronger

Get alarm with battery lol

Farking savages make the laws more serious !!

lol dude it's not as simple as just no battery...im not that silly! alarm is switched on now too ;)

I've got an idea of what needs to happen but i need a parts contact and a recommendation on a place to take her to fit and repair.

cheers mate

Call Steve Barnes at Northside Nissan in Wangara, WA. ph. 9409 0120

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
