as previously mentioned, don't think that you're safe because you have an alarm.

the more security the better.           :)

i know some people dont have alarms since they cant afford it and just place a red LED that runs of a 1.5v energiser and make it flash...

this "scares" away theifs and also he puts a club lock like the one Jimbo recomends.

I have seen a 'club lock' broken within 15 seconds, all done with a deoderant can.....

by spraying a can of those dry type deoderants onto the steel shaft, it freezes it within about 20 seconds, and then with a decent whack, it snaps like a stick

remember on Terminator 2, that dude gets frozen and smashes really easy, same thing :)

That yellow thing looks the go, use one of those a a couple of big nasty rottys tied to your car :)

You can get those flame things in Sth Africa, one of those would be good to have :) Will try and find a few pics

do a google search for "car" and "taser" or "tazer"....

They've got club-lock style taser devices in the UK that actually electrocute anyone that comes into your car.

that sounds good but what if you lend your car to your mum to get a bottle of milk and she forgets about the million volt jolt she'll get if she dosnt do something right

bye ma!

      WTB noltec r32 front upper (camber) arms

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm firmly on the "zero compliance is good compliance" for FUCAs. I'd be looking to solid metal joints even if the primary reason for having them is because they facilitate the twist in the arm. I have never been more happy with the way the front suspension behaves than I have since I got rid of the FUCA bushes. Even the thin little (short lived) poly bushes in the Whiteline adjustables have too much compliance for my liking. It probably won't be long before I have sphericals nearly everywhere, probably including both top and bottom arms in the rear, and I'll start complaining about the increased costs for dental work. But I will be enjoying the driving more, I'm sure.

      I have offset Nismo brackets so the fact the gktechs can pivot is less important to me. I have 170mm JIC arms with bushings - but they provide no adjustment and I'm not sure whiteline eccentric bushings will fit them (I don't want to ruin the bushings currently in them to find out). Ideally I want something with bushings + adjustment; hence why I'd like to find a pair of these. Unfortunately they aren't easy to find.

      @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal!
