all they need to do with that system, is to make it keep a last known GPS location, that would solve the problme justin pointed out....if it takes note of the GPS location b4 it was driven into the garage etc, then you basically pin point the car down to their driveway

Sure does Dezz.

Just my opinion, if anyone could afford a Skyline of any type, they should always get, at the VERY least, 3rd party fire and theft. If you can't afford this, you can't afford to maintain it, thus you can't afford to keep the car.

100% agreed. same for any car. it should be the law to have third party at a very minimum....but if you cant afford to insure your car, you cant afford the car

i stopped myself buying certain cars a while ago for this very reason...

and if the GPS alarm does what i said above, then it should be basically full proof

I think every car does have third part minimum in the rego :P

thought so...but too easy for dead heads to drive around un-registered

and if thats the case, why are people always whinging about other people driving around un-insured

if someone steals ya car and parks it underground the GPS probs wont be able to pick it up tho :huh:

That seam’s true but I would think most thief’s would either take the car for a joy ride or drive it somewhere to be striped down... That being said I know that if your car has being started or even if you disconnect the battery without dis-arming the system that with in a min you would receive a phone call from quick track confirming your car and they will dispatch a guard or police to intercept the vehicle..

Now I don't know, if the car has being driven to an underground location if they can still track it, but they would need to be very quick about it because they will respond very promptly.

midnight... i was driving on beach road, saw a S2 33, but i was driving into the sun, lots of traffic. It didn't look black, but a dark colour...

was gun metal every available in S2? i didn't think it was...

it could have been a dark blue, i tried looking in the rear view mirror, but nearly had a crash :huh: this was around 4:00pm Tuesday afternoon,

i forgot completely to post this.

It was on Beach rd, not far from Elwood park? um... i just call it beach rd cos it's a long the beach, but i know the road changes names... might be an esplanade. But yeah, opposite that picnic type area in Elwood.

are you thinking the car is in the northern suburbs??

I think every car does have third part minimum in the rego :huh:

The third party on your rego is PUBLIC LIABILITY insurance, it does not cover other ppl's cars or property.

I also beleive that 3rd party insurance should be made law. Do it like Europe, you have to present a current insurance policy when paying rego.

werd.

didnt think the insurance on rego covered cars

should be compulsory to have third party property damage !

shit, its a couple of hundred, less on shit boxes

I saw a car matching your description but with stock rims parked on osborne ave clayton/springvale 10pm on monday nite.

I was a passenger so a got a fair look even @ the speed my mad running late mate was travelling @, but i didnt see this thread till today so I didnt stop to check for the bonnet mark ect.

100% certain its a dark blue car..95% sure it was an s2.

Might be worth a look...

Sorry that i cant go and check for certain that the car is still there, but im about a 40 min drive away.

Anyway goodluck * peers out the window at his own cars, i've got 3 in the driveway and had the alarms go off 4 times this past week + my nice neighbour spotted a "skanky bogan" in my driveway last week also in my front yard around 8pm last nite...*heads back out front with his trusty bat. Damn I hate people!! especially those toothless dim witted pricks with poor personal hygiene that the suburbs seem awash with.

Correct. Only covers the 3rd party individual.

With the UK you now have to take the insurance certificate and the annual roadworthy equivilant certificate called the MOT to get taxed not just insurance which is even better IMO as it prevents bangers going around that are the real road worthy issues.

Sorry to put this in the stolen thread but at least it is keeping it at the top for you mate.

sent you a pm mate...hasnt appeared in my sent items though so i'll post instead/aswell

The car i saw was on the springvale side of osborne ave...so thats a right turn off westall rd if your city bound, the car was parked in the street on the l/h/s.

I noticed it coz im a liner owner and it's my job to notice other lines :P

The color stood out to me because I thought it was another black car like mine till we were right on it I didnt realize it was a dark blue and i've only ever seen 2 in that color. The stock rims on a neat car also made me cringe just a lil bit also.

Anyway if im bored shitless tonite I'll take that drive for you and see if I can spot it...If I do i'll take your mobile # with me. If your going for a look tonite pm me maybe we can meet up and search the area properly.

Goodluck...

    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
    • Doing a refresh of my 33 and can see a few websites stating they sell the entire main carpet for our cars, but they all have generic photos which is fine, i understand they are custom made to order.  Just seeing if anyone has got it done or had any experience with this, as i would only want to do it if the fit and finish was as good as oem https://carmatsdirect.com.au/products/moulded-carpet-or-vinyl-for-nissan-skyline-r33-1993-1998-coupe https://knoxautocarpets.com.au/moulded-carpets/nissan/skyline/skyline-r-33-1993-1998/
    • Any plans for E85? If so, add flex fuel sensor.   I'd probably add in the sensors I mentioned above if the Link will support using them for engine protection. With water pressure, you need to be able to effectively set it that "If temp > X, and pressure = atmospheric, shutdown" as at running temp, you should be able to read pressure in the cooling system. If pressure suddenly disappears, it means the water went some where, and this is a quicker reaction than waiting on water temp to go up (Which, can take a little longer than you'd like, considering it now has to wait for hot air to heat it up) Oil pressure, Oil temp, both would be on my list too if you're looking to add sensors. Wideband O2. And at least one EGT sensor. If you're feeling deluxe, put in individual runner EGTs. Single EGT sensor is more so forget about a specific number, get used to "What is normal EGTs", and then keep an eye on it, if it starts going away from "normal" it's a sign something is wrong (Also, things like the tune can still start going out of spec, but EGTs may not show it, for example one injector starts running leaning, so ECU richens everything up, now 5 out of 6 cylinders are rich, and running cool, with one cylinder lean and running hotter, so it's not perfect) Then there is your other things to look at non sensor related, but you may have already done, or have underway, and that would be things like building a sump for more oil, and better oil control under high G-Forces (Cornering, brakes, acceleration). Basically, the above is worth looking/thinking about, if the ECU can do protective stuff with it, and you continue to use it how you are (Drive it to the track, thrash it, drive home, repeat once every 3 to 4 months)
    • Can also confirm these work a treat for most balljoints and bushes. If you have access to a big rattle gun, they make the job so much easier and quicker, compared to using a socket wrench or shifter on the c-clamp 👍
