Hey People,

This is from some other forum where a car theif was telling civic owners how he breaks in and what security devices work better than others, damn good read if you dont your car or stuff in it stolen. Very Happy

thats pretty good for giving ppl the right idea. your car can always be stolen, the trick is to slow them down. but then they fuck your car up in anger. i was always thinking of ways to cause great pain to theives but realise they will only take it out on my car.

thats really good tips, but on the other hand giving out hints to the criminals not that good, wonder how much it costs to get rid of your key locks.

what you need is a blade mounted in the roof so that when they grab your steering wheel it comes down and chops their hands off.

you wouldnt want it to accidentally activate tho Smile

lol...and cross your fingers you dont get sued....stupid legal system Confused

i'd say a good imobilser would prevent them from taking the car and an in-car siren wouldn't allow them to hang around for too long....and it wouldnt cost you an arm & leg

theres not much else you can do really unless you can invent some sort of bulletproof type skin like the batmobile so they cant take their frustration out on your panels Very Happy

In dash siren ( 130db loud biatch )
2 Immobilsers and a fuelcut.
Backup battery hidden somewhere nasty.

And if you really wanted to be a bitch , take out fuses like ECU , Fuelpump and such , don't forget to take the little diagram that tells people where the fuses go WITH you , and not leave it in the car Very Happy

The main thing that sux is if you have the best security system in the world the theif will get pissed off and kick in your panels as that guy said. In america there are some sychos i saw a guy posting saying he leaves his snake in the car and no-one will touch it, also one guy leaves a an empty gun holster on the drivers seat so if somone wants to break in theyll wonder wheres the gun.

Speaking of Towing...

The Black VK Commodore STR8AZ got stolen... It was parked outside a house at Wentworthville and the thieves brought a tray top tow truck... They towed it away the bastards...

If anyone sees parts for sale that look remotely like the ones off the car, like same interior, panels, engine parts or anything, please contact me straight away... Thank you very much...

I still maintain that the best "theft deterrent" I've seen is the ad in the opening scene of Robocop 2. If you haven't seen it, watch it. It's what all cars should have! Evil or Very Mad

yeah some good info there.
but remember if the worthless fucks who steal cars want it - they'll get it
AND if you piss them off, it will end up keyed, dented or torched.

one word. karma.

the screamer is good, cost about $20 for 114dB siren from jaycar. run it off the siren or a seperate relay and hide it good. run on in your dash somewhere and one in the boot/hatch.

In the new fast fours jaycar has an advertisement for a steering wheel alarm, it senses shock ie broken window or hard hit on your car and has a 130db siren and flashing strobe Very Happy , costs 24.95.
