sigh.... i heard about it from sun hae. yeah i think ur going thru what i went thru when i first got the car. like i said in the other thread, they threw bricks at my window, missed and dented and scratched my door which cost more than replacing a window. they spray painted my rear and stock rims GREEN?! and someone finally broke in, there was nothing to jack except air freshners and cds and hats and stuff like that so i guess he got mad and ripped my headliner and broke a lot of the plastic pieces in my car. and i live in LA CRESCENTA, which is not as bad as ktown... when i filed a police report, the police came and told me they were getting many calls that day regarding this and even found a car that was on fire the whole night... i swear. if u got crap with someone just handle it face to face, i hate it when people mess with peoples properties, expecially something a lot of people on this forum cares about, their cars..

so garage it. i mean our garage was full of my dads equipment for work, and he cleared out half of it, so i could fit my z in. you should really consider garaging your car.

K-Town is G-H-E-T-T-O. That's all I gotta say, even though I'm Korean and I grew up there and all. Sorry to read about your vandalism. Read my post. My Z got Jacked in K-town last week!!!!!!!!!!!
You gotta be careful. Wait...the thieves better be careful from now on. I'm setting up a video camera and shotgun pointing at my future ride with a string tied to the trigger.
I bet those dirty jackers don't even know my rims and spoiler don't fit their 89 accord...

Give back to the community...Murder a car jacker!

alarms dont work, whens the last time you heard an alarm and completely ignored it if they want your car they'll stop at nothing

Just have to try to garage it as much as possible...
Apparently, my LoJack isn't working. There seems to be a lot of other tracking devices online. Some sheriff suggested TeleTrack?
Some systems allow you to track from your own computer. Wonder if they're any good.

i think it only goes off for things that draw power, like dome light.

It's not an alarm. It's just a fancy door lock with engine kill. It only goes off when you open the door.

You're the alarm! You press your remote PANIC button when you see something!

hmm... thats strange i didnt know Z's were targeted until last week, all this abruptly happened i dont think im going to take my Z out to ktown for a bit, what was scary was i used to park when i was dating this korean girl who lived outside of ktown by 12th and Pico literally Crenshaw and Pico where the bulletproof window revolving door drivethru is....

it was always parked there on here street ....

i guess i was lucky....

sorry to hear about that but what is strange is

your car is literally stock so they probably wanted to jack the whole car

scary for the guys who have modded cars

Where in K-Town are you? My Z was jacked on Ardmore, between 5th and 6th. If you're close enough, maybe I'll include your street in my late night watch route.
