I parked at uni today a whole hour, came back to my car, and someone had ripped my dash apart, again, and stolen my stereo, again. this is the last time i buy a bloody good stereo, they keep getting stolen!!! i had only just repaired the damage done to my dash surround from the last time someone stole it, and now it's all smashed again! i had my car booked in to get a new alarm installed on thursday as well!

is there something wrong with my car, or am i doomed to always have my stereos stolen?

ANU, just over on North Oval. i've parked there plenty of times before, no dramas. it's not secluded or anything, they must have known exactly what to do. i hate to say it but i'm hating having a skyline right now, too much attention from the wrong sort of people (theives and cops)

yeah it had a detachable face, but i was only going to be there an hour, so i didn't bother to remove it. they got my stereo, all the parts that goes with it, my CB radio and my new shoes i just bought... luckily i left all my CDs inside. it just shits me because my alarm had recently died, and i was about to get a new one installed... so shitty

ah crap.

Terminal, I gotta say, your car looks wicked. absolutely gorgeous. Saw it in the carpark just the other day and it's REALLY impressive.

BUT IT STICKS OUT LIKE A SORE THUMB. Most of the cars around uni are crappy old bangers. I mean, I have a fairly crummy stereo, and remember leaving my window open all day and no one took anything. that's 'cause it's an innocent little pulsar (still love it though).

the have-nots and slime buckets of this world will go for it because it looks so damn good. and they don't care how you feel. these are the same f*ckwits who bash the side of your car when they open their doors. i have heard many hair-raising stories about jealousy etc. and can say that it may well even be someone you speak to regularly!

as for north oval, i park my pulsar there but would never park my line there. about three years ago my gf at the time had her crappy '83 pulsar broken into over there. you know what they nicked? her battery!!! her #%#@ battery! it wasn't even new! it's a veritable whitman's assortment for car thieves, that place (as is any carpark like that i think).

also, i gotta say, i really think it's possible that thieves and that are reading this very forum to find out where we park our cars (i'd say a wrx forum would be even worse). call me paranoid?

anyway sorry to hear about it mate. here's hoping we catch someone like that in the act though, yeah? rip THEM a new dashboard.

nah, i only park at North Oval, or sometimes on Bolderwood St.

thanks sigsputnik, i try to keep it looking good, but it's a stuggle at the moment. i've got a 400R bar i'm getting ready to put on in about a week, then just need a general clean and regular maintenance and i'm going to be selling it. it's not going on the market until i have it back to 100% though.

I've gotten all the parts from Just Jap being sent down next week, only $370, so i'm not too dissapointed with that. would have been nice if it wasn't smashed.

My mates suggested getting a rotty actually, but then my car would stink of dog.

i was thinking of hooking up some sort of electric shock to the handle or lethal injection in the seat if the system wasn't turned off.... it's still in development though :)

      Excuse me, but 2) does apply 1) Would also apply if you consider how much is spent in the alternatives. Also there's the option of 3), buy one pre-built that you can put your family in (it's me, it's my car)   That said, I went on a ~500km drive the other day. I didn't use anything more adventurous than 3rd/4th gear at about ~3000RPM and 50% throttle and I was going as fast as anyone has any sense doing on a public road, with enough grip to the point where I didn't want to go any faster. I was obviously under the limit of the current car etc etc. MX5 with 2.5 N/A to achieve the same speed would be more fun for any road scenario. Maybe consider cams. I wouldn't boost it. The use case is just not there and it won't actually make the car more enjoyable unless you really do plan on wringing gears from 1st to 3rd (at least) at 100% WOT on a public road to 150+kmh.

      Great if: 1. You had all of the money for everything else that is required  2. Lived in a country where you could actually do this and drive it legally on the road Sadly, neither applies to me As for the turbo, I am having second thoughts, mainly for engineering/registration legality reasons and insurance  Not saying I've finished doing stupid things that I probably should do to the MX5, but boost, and V8 engine swaps isn't on the cards Strange, but true

      Yes shipping here can be a pain, was about to purchase timing belt replacement kit, but it tends to get expensive due to shipping (and customs if importing from non-EU which the UK now falls under).
