My FC got stolen AGAIN....kind of...
 
Some may know that last June My N/A FC was stolen from my gated parking structure.

4:10 AM this morning my roommate calls:

"Hey your RX-7 is around the corner with the hood up and the driver's side door open. There's a tall white guy with a beard standing next to it on the phone".


I'm like WTF!!!!!!!!!! I woke up out of my sleep coma, grabbed my aluminum bat and ran downstairs. My roommate had seen the car getting mangled and backed up to my apt complex to call me, this is when the dude jumped in his car and took off. I was ready to break some skulls. So I pushed my FC into the garage and it rests quietly there.


Suspects: Caucasian male about 6'1" long-ish dark hair and a goatee
Hispanic female didnt get to see her very well
Both in their early to mid 20s driving a 200-2004 Nissan Altima (gold or silver)

Damages: Destroyed ignition and door lock

*I have a factory ECU kill switch which probably kept that asshole from taking my FC. It looks like he got excited cutting wires and also cut the slot wires for the chip. (See pic below)

Well I got my FC back and in one piece. I really wish I would've caught him and her to take out all my agressions but no luck. File report. Cops could care less.

I've put too much money into this car for it to be taken by some piece of shit low life scumbag that has no future. So for now, I am gonna lock it at pop's house (gated) and work on it there until I get solex locks and rewire the kill switch + quick release and lock for it.

I think we all need to be more cautious and definitely invest in anti theft


My savior

damn that sucks, thats y i have numerous switches and the removable steering wheel.

Zomg RE-A rims?!


Get a viper alarm.. I heard it releases real vipers when the alarm goes off.

Also a police sticker or a military sticker would also be a nice deterrence.
Or a sign that says I own a shot gun and a sniper rifle.

airquin23 03-10-09 11:45 AM

Damn thats shitty! Great job anti-theft.

iLikeEatPoo 03-10-09 11:49 AM

Any law enforcement involvement?

KeloidJonesJr. 03-10-09 11:50 AM

Negative, military stickers are a target, trust me, they've been talking about getting rid of them for that reason, I can't wait till they do I hate those things. A police sticker would work best IMO.

Don't you wish we could just wire a spring-loaded taser to the inside of the steering column? Punch the lock - - ZAP, right in the nuts.

Kingsfan 03-10-09 12:39 PM

or do what i do, have EMC sit in the car all night with a tazer and a lot of coffee.

CWestFD3S 03-10-09 12:47 PM

RotoricanNY 03-10-09 01:22 PM

You mean the sticker that allows military folk to drive their cars onto the base? If they did it all by ID check I think security levels would drop. I'm pretty sure the U.S Military cares more about the security of their bases compared to some car.



Hang a high powered rifle in your window and park your car right under that window. And have a sticker of an arrow on your car pointing up to the window. Then have a sign under that arrow that says I go to the shooting range for 10 hours every weekend. Then your license plate frame should say something like "I'd rather be shooting".

Or you can pull out your EGI fuse every time you park your car. oh and get quick release for your rims too. Or chain it up like a bike to a lap post.

Too subtle for most car theives.

Dare we say... reactive armor?

iLikeEatPoo 03-10-09 02:41 PM

But a freaking sentry gun on top of your car.

This never would have happened with attack scorpions.

Battle Cat 03-10-09 03:20 PM

DAmn eddie... good thing you cought them in action, before they got any further,... im keeping my eye out....


Solex locks are the best imo, so much harder to steal/break in.

thankfully i only sleep like 7 ft away from my car.....
