If your really paranoid then get your self a tracking system, thats the only way to keep an eye on your car 24x7. A black wired alarm is a good idea, but they could tow the car away.

Having multiple sirens on the car is a top idea, spend the time to install them and put one outside the car. Make sure your alarm has a tilt sensor so if its on the back of a tow truck the alarms will be going postal!

Ur lucky, I'm from Brissy and was working in Parra for 3 months. parked at the corner of the Malsonic club almost everyday, thinking that it was safe cause it was off the main road (george street). One week before coming back to Brissy, I came back to the car to find the front-mount, boost controller (bleed value), air filter and blow-off valve gone. The alarm was triggered but no one cared, they didn't touched the inside of the car but managed to pop the bonnet and take what they wanted.

So f**ken pissed, had to pay for towing to Green Valley $150.00 and $1000 to replace everything.

Be very careful around that area!!!

Thankgod I'm back here

there is one thing u can do. a guys did it in the rs liberty club that i was in before SAU...

When he put his alarm in he installed about 6 sirens all around the car. 2 in the bonnet, 3 inside the car and one in the boot of the car.  The ones inside the car were placed 2 under the dash (drivers side) and one under the passangers seat.

this was about a $40k subi so the security had to be good.  He left it at a train station one day and caught the train to work, or somewhere.  When he got back his window was smashed and the door was unlocked.  and one of the shop keepers told him that his alarm had been going off all day.  Obvisally he went to the cops and told them what happened they said there wasnt much why could do.

2 days later he got a call from the police saying that there was a guys in hospital that they think broke into his car.

The guy who broke into his car went to hospital 2 days after breaking into his car.  Because of the 2 sirens place under the dash on the drivers side, when he was trynig to hot-wire the car both his eardrums burst.  If anyone has had their eardrums burst they will know how it feels, it ***n hurts...

So install more sirens.  If u cant stop the ***ers deffen them.

P.S. sorry for all the spelling mistakes.

hahaha..thats class..

ive been reading alot about getting black wires for alarms...how bout installing a whole bunch of fake wires to make taking it that much harder, theyll end up tracing some wires to a dead end ...thus spending more time in the car becoming deaf...

    • have you rotated the car yet? if so how smooth was it?
    • And finally, I had the driver's side airbox off while adding a long drain hose under the oil can to down near the oil filter. Doesn't look good, it has definitely had an turbo oil seal leak and looks like it has been for a long time.....guess I'll have to get a pair of highflows to put on the shelf It's also worth mentioning it has a really strange clamp between the bottom of the airflow meter (which has a big barb/lip on it) and the intake pipe. I've used the magic of MSPaint to show, basically you have to clip out those 2 steel springs which unlocks the hose from the AFM. I used 2 flat screwdrivers, the spring sort of clips into the unlocked position. Reassembly you just pop them both back flat once the hose is far enough up the AFM that the spring clamp is above the barb. Weird to use but much more convenient once your'e used to it compared to trying to do up a hose clamp under the airbox like on 32 GTR
    • The other thing I started was a fire extinguisher bracket.  As with a few other cars previously (350z, Leaf), I'm going to add a bracket between the navigator seat's front bolts, then mount the extinguisher on that. Unfortunately Nissan (probably the same engineer who did the A/T fluid interwarmer) decided that the front seat brackets would be recessed and uneven so the bracket shape was a bit tricky; I ended up doing 1 part under each seat mount (the large hole is because there is a flange under the seat mount to allow for the carpet thickness)   and then a horizontal part between those 2 No final pic yet as the paint needs to dry, I'll post up once that's done  
    • OK, a few half jobs on the skyline this weekend because its booked for a test day at Wakefield Park on 27-Feb. While the Ecutek dongle and app provide display and logging of a heap of engine parameters, they annoyingly don't have access to the auto trans temp. So I grabbed an oil temp gauge from Raceworks which apparently has warning colour change and peak hold, about $95  and their 8mm hose sender adapter Now, I foolishly thought these 2 might work together, but no, the sender needs about 30mm clearance in the fitting and the adapter only had about 8mm. I've cobbled something together with an NPT T piece and blank for now but will try and work out something more permanent as I intend to use the same fitting for the data logger in the future. Under the car, Nissan's engineers decided that only one opportunity for coolant and trans fluid to mix (the radiator) was not enough, and they also added an interwarmer near the sump on the passenger side like the engine oil has: I've cut the hose between the auto trans outlet and the interwarmer inlet and inserted the sender there as that gives the best indication of temp inside the transmission.   From there it is back to the pain of running that sender wire to the cabin, I've run it up near the passenger headlight, into the battery box, across the channel at the back and into the master cylinder area where I ran out of wire length (and patience). Remainder of the job is through the grommet near the accelerator pedal that I've used previously, then across under the dash to where I will temporarily mount it on the console for track days (and remove it other times). The gauge will also need IGN, BAT and earth (I'm not going to worry about illumination as I'll unhook it between track days)  
    • This piece is obscenely discontinued. I honestly hate the frameless window design because the rubber gets stressed and the guides as well every time you open and close the door.
