I was driving home from dropping my girlfriend off and I noticed that the alignment kept getting worse and worse as I was driving. It got to the point where it the wheel was shaking pretty bad and the car kept pulling harder and harder to the right. So I pulled over and called for someone to come pick me up and I would come back and tow the car later that morning. Less than 12 hours later when I go to pick it up, it's gone. No wrecker yards have it, so it didnt get impounded. My car's stolen. It wasnt the best car ever, but I was building it and that was my first project car that I ever put any work into. I'm pretty sad :-/
The easiest way to spot her from the back is by the beat muffler with black buildup above it on the paint, and cracked passanger signal (it's half filled with water! [baller]). You can see the passanger qp dent on the pictures.
If you know anything about this, please let me know something... Here she is...

Thanks buddy... She was stolen from Langford parkway between the Campbelton and Greenbriar exits, so she's probably going to be somewhere between the west and south side of the city.

call the tag office and let them know and of course the cops (im sure you already did) so if they attempt to get a tag you will know. some people try to forge a bill of sale

That guy could be lying. He came on here the other day claiming he drifts in japan and posted pics of a car that was not his. Either way, I really hope you find it.

i may sound like a complete newb.
but can someone please explain why 240s are so easy to steal?
like what kinda things should be done to a 240 for it to be unable to be stole?
someone should make a very detailed thread about some tips and suggestions.

I used to disconnect my ignitor chip since mine was wired up in the fender in my s14. Plus there are only 3 different types of 240 keys made os if you buy one you have a good chance of unlocked anothers door.
And my silvia key can unlock all 3 of them. Tried and proven on timmys old coupe as well as a few of my buddies in nc including a s14 lol

Why would you leave your car alone on the side of the road in that area? Its just asking for it to be taken lol. Sorry though that sucks I do know you how feel

So, the police called.... They said they found my car, and it has been crushed. Not surprising.
Fox 5 also ran a story on related cases.

damn was up with with ppl stealing 240sx here in houston a few of them have been stolen 2 wtf

12-07-2011, 05:48 AM
240s = easy to steal. wedge in window, move door lock rod towards latch = unlocked, or bust out window....also super easy to hotwire. or just tow...
as far as fuel cutoff switch, would take a relatively intelligent person about 5 minutes to check in the limited spaces you could put one...or just tow....
That really sucks man. If I win the lottery any time soon, you get new car, with a self destruct alarm.....
Anyway, hope those people die a painful, slow death and rot in hell. Or get shot up trying to steal peoples shit.

that sucks man...
all the scrap yards need to do is call the local dds / police station to make sure its not stolen check the vin number...
still doesnt stop someone from cutting it up.

I broke down once on 85 out in the middle of no where ... nothing close on any of the exits... I sat there for 6 hours in the hottest part of the summer waiting for my dad to find me get parts to fix it just so it wouldn't get stolen.
