And thanks again to everyone's support. Just make sure you keep an eye on your Z if it has to stay outside like mine. I live in a good area, so it just goes to show that you don't have to live in a bad neighborhood for this kind of crap to happen.

Can your landlord do that? I mean, unless it's in your lease agreement, as far as I know, you're leasing the whole property - that's how those things work - he can rent a space from a storage unit place...

I should have clarified before: my landlord lives on the first floor and I live on the second floor.

man thats sucks bro. I really feel for you! Lookin at those pics made me cringe. I agree with Togo and that sexxy a$$ Sig! I hear P220s can cure many human behavior issues! Really though its a tough situation if you're still parking in the same spot. Sorry again though...

Smallywood · 10-27-2009, 11:32 PM

Sorry about the theft bro. If they get them again, buy the Nismo Rays as replacements...

Man that sucks. I keep some bird shot loaded in the shotgun but I live out in Hawaii and they have some ridiculous laws about personal protection. They let one guy go to a mental institution after he broke in, killed the wife/daughter and stabbed the husband.

Round 2! Fight!

radiZh · 10-28-2009, 06:03 AM

Damn, I feel so bad for you.

LETSGOEERS06 · 12-09-2009, 12:38 PM

LOL SPEED I wont come stealing stuff from your house anytime soon. lol

So after reading this whole thread it looks like the only good deterrant is the lojack system? I like the multiple wheel lock idea but do you guys think it will actually hold up? Thank god for living in a gated community but my inlaws live in queens with no garage...

I don't think a lojack will be a deterrant or prevent anyone from stealing a set of wheels. To me a good set of wheels locks, good alarm and a garage is your best bet.

There are also regular wheels lug nuts that comes with a different pattern, it will act like wheels locks.

NYBladeZ · 12-13-2009, 04:09 PM

are the dealer wheel lock any good? Damn Nissan I wish they would have included them, anyone know how much they run for?

nogoodname · 12-13-2009, 04:19 PM

The oem wheel lock is garbage, anyone can buy the key and steal all g's and z's rims.

NYBladeZ · 12-13-2009, 06:52 PM

so what is the most dependable wheel lock out there?

dudafunk · 12-13-2009, 07:41 PM

So what town on Long Island did this happen in? (How's Centereach in terms of reputation? Moved here 5 months ago and gonna get a Z.. lol). Fortunately I have a garage.

Now, does your insurance premium go up in the future after claiming money after this theft, the way it does if you meet with an accident? (I'm hoping that it doesn't). And if it doesn't, then besides a 2-3 week headache/paper work etc., its really okay right? You get it all back...
