you guys will notice anything that pops ups... id suggest checking local craigslists... maybe try looking for the most vague looking post of all as if they really dont know what the parts are, then they wont know what to call them... i highly doubt they'll post anything this soon if it were thieves trying to get just the car... everything on it is baller and like stated above, if you see a TII Diff for sale, borgwarner turbo, manifold, motor, anything you'll recognize ****...
has there been any news at all yet???
i was talking with stew leask and he said 04's rarely came with onstar... this sucks, and hopefully something pops up. i saw on facebook JTP is offering a cash reward of $5,000 to any leads on getting his car and truck back. if it's anyone on here, i suggest getting ahold of him or a friend of his ASAP, and fessing up before the cops get you... it's only a matter of time, and this is serious ****... alll of america (and beyond) knows of this car, it's parts, and the personality of the owner, and this isn't right at all...

Good luck JTP... We are all on the lookout. The thief is stupid, can't ever go to any events, can't sell parts because everyone knows every part on the cars, he has a massive trailer which he/she can't go far with, the car is unique looking, etc... It's only a matter of time, people will spot the trailer, or the parts (on ebay or kijiji or even local boards all over NA).

JUSTIN LISTEN. You need to contact all the scrap yards in a good radius. You need to tell them what the deal is and if something that looks like a trailer, Is a tripple axle with no sides, decking ect on it to check the vin/plate contact you/police. I know someone that just had there motor home stolen, tore down, scrapped in less than 48hrs.

quoted for truth..
if it's a member here i'd suggest hitting him up, or even contacting me and ill call him. i'm sure it'll be a no questions asked deal, and you walk aslong as its back in one piece. if the cops find you or someone finds out after the fact and snitches, you're done for... doing tons of jail time, or watching over your back wondering when you'll get caught up... you will get caught, and if the car were tampered with i'm sure you'll be doing alot of jailtime. the longer this goes, the worse it will be in the end.
there is more of a chance it'll be a no questions asked deal right now if everything is returned, intact.
if anyone hears about anything in or around vegas, don't hesitate to call me anytime. text, leave a message, whatever. i won't ask questions, just want to see a good dude get his hard work back safe...
702-370-0577.
you cant make that much money off of everything so you might as well give it back, and enjoy your life. honestly i would suggest just driving the truck/trailer to a safe place, locking it up, notify the police of it sitting so justin can get his **** back...

thing is, if this person is smart enough to post on craiglist, more then likely they will see one of the many posts about this. Hell, whoever took it could be on facebook and see their buddies post it.. crazy.. I really dislike low lifes.
Really wish they would vamp up the justice system, go midevil, off with their hands! Just serving a little time is a bluff to them and the risks seem worth it to them.

I'm sorry, but this is becoming another classic case of cop bullshit. They have cameras, and a 40 foot moving machine, truck and trailer @ 1-2 am can't be that hard to find. They should let us do our own research with there tools if they r not going to do the job. Were do u hide something that large and still have room to take the car out???? Warehouse, or something, maybe mountain area, but **** its not like that truck and trailer can go everywhere a car can travel, come on cops, if this was the presidents car, it would be foun d within the hour. I hate how this country looks down on its citizens in times of need. If truely we were created equally, why aren't we treated that why. Cops made a report and kept it moving, just another stolen car to them, ******
Also if you had a bike and a fd stolen in the last few months, you should look at your circle, I'm sorry to say, but friends of friends can be very dangerous enemies. Let's hope whom ever theyh r that they do the smart thing to get out of this without damage and drop evrything off somewhere, intouched and call the shop or cops, I would say the sbhop as I don't trust cops and they might call a shady tow or something. Sorry to any law enforcement that may be on here, but I have never had a directly positive experience with on duty cops.

Ill keep my eyes open in SD, lets pray they dont go south with this.
This is way to sketchy. Cody and Justin. 2 FD cars. I really think this **** is organized and planned out. I wouldn't be surprised if the same people who stole your car are the same ones who got cody.

I'm not into the drift scene, before reading this I didn't know that a 240 of another racer had also been stolen. It's not at all a far fetched idea that a group of people in the scene are preying on racers. Correct me if I'm wrong, but both cars were stolen on their trailers, truck and all? If that assumption is correct it's also easy to assume that they know a little about tearing these cars down and are connected enough to part them out discreetly.
My question is how does insurance work on race cars? Are they insured as personal property and tied into home or renters insurance? Are they insured through corporate sponsors? Obviously they aren't insured for damage and accidents...but they must be insured through professional channels?

Keyless entry systems vulnerable to high-tech car thieves
Read this on the "internet"
Remote keyless entry has been around for a while – since the late 1980s, in fact – and today it’s almost standard on all new cars. But the pervasiveness of this feature is not without consequence. As researchers in Switzerland point out, the technology can make vehicle theft a breeze for a savvy thief.
Remote keyless-entry systems use radio waves that typically are specific to a manufacturer, and the signals are usually encrypted. When your vehicle’s key fob is within 20 feet of the car, you’re allowed to transmit a signal to unlock the doors, pop the trunk, remote start your car (when equipped) or activate the car alarm.
Researchers at ETH Zurich discovered that these encrypted signals are easy to intercept and trick.
Keyless entry
Keyless entry systems are vulnerable to car thieves.
The theft works by setting up two antennas, one near the targeted vehicle and one near the holder of the key fob — be it in a purse, bag or pocket. This equipment can usually be purchased for $100 to $1,000. The person with the antenna aimed at the owner of the key fob needs to get within 26 feet of the target. In a store, this could be a few aisles away, so as to not arouse suspicion.
Once the antenna is near the intended victim’s key fob, the key transmits a low-power signal to the antenna, which is then relayed to the antenna near the vehicle. Once that occurs, the thief can unlock the doors and drive away (if the vehicle has push-button start).
The Swiss researchers hacked into eight car manufacturers’ passive-entry systems using this method. No cryptology or protocol could stop it.
While this system may seem fairly complicated, it could catch on with car thieves because of the cost of the equipment and anonymity. However, the hack cannot start the cars with traditional keys. Today’s ignition systems are increasingly complicated and secure. That’s one reason why car thefts are largely on the decline in the U.S.
David Wagner, a computer science professor at the University of California at Berkeley, said there are probably easier way to steal cars, but the “nasty aspect of high-tech car theft” is that it doesn’t leave any sign of forced entry. That could lead to problems with police and insurance companies in tracking down the criminals or with filing claims.
Right now, the only way to protect yourself is by either shielding your key fob’s radio with a guard or leaving your key fob at home. Srdjan Capkun, an assistant professor at ETH Zurich, says the institute is working on a way to prevent this sort of theft.
on a side note, I can't believe Kat Von D is marrying Jesse James! I wonder if she got the vials of blood i sent her???

here is some data on that area.
http://projects.latimes.com/mapping-...me/#six-months
in the last six months, 81 cars have been stolen, averaging 13.5 cars a month. As of 2008 there were 34,466 registered residents. If half of them have cars, about 17233 cars in the city, that would leave the chances for your car to randomly be jacked at .004%.
Also assuming the factory alarm was working and no one heard it, or it didnt go off at all. No broken glass, still could mean forced entry through door handle, but doesnt explain alarm silence. The one person who knew was the person house it was at im assuming, and hopefully you wont leave you truck trailer and car with a someone whom you didnt have the utmost trust with. Hey have you pissed off any chicks lately??? j/k but seriously, girls can be mean. It almost seems like the person had the keys, as i really thought that truck has a passlock system which is hard as hell to bypass. i might be wrong about that though.
