[jackjack]

thats crazy man. hope everything works out.

[Citystars]

everyone install ignition kill switch
its easy and free(steal the switch, find random wires in ur garage)
and if you place the switch right (dont tell a soul that you have a kill switch)
your car will never get jacked!

I hate to see this shit!!
Good luck!

[eastcoastS14]

post up pics....i obviously cant help but pics of the car will help ppl near you

[Jtuned_andy]

You do know that theives can just drag your car onto a flat bed, nothing is ever 'truly' safe from theft.

everyone install ignition kill switch

[Rob's S14]

Where in socal? I'll definitely keep my eyes open. Makes me worried about parking my car outside. Hope he finds the car.

lol fuck that if you live in cali you need to start installing the boot your wheels everytime you park

[driftage240]

fuck man maybe i should hold off fixing up my vert :( hope ur bud gets it back!!

[s13coupedrfter]

That car sounded sick, bummed out for the loss. Looking out in LB.

[Phlip]

This shit is crazy, every week another one or more.
I'll sticky the thread

[ptsmalls]

lol fuck that if you live in cali you need to start installing the boot your wheels everytime you park

Sounds crazy but I have friends back in jersey who use the boot.

[Sonic Motor]

do you have a picture of it? We will definitely keep our eyes open. Its HARD to see a convertible 240 and not notice.

[loserfrancis]

Only guarantee it won't get stolen is parking in the garage. I'll keep an eye out down here in san diego.

[RPS13_NISMO KNIGHT]

sorry about ur friends car

i'll have my eye out in L.A.

[muddafakka]

Damn that sucks man. I hope it gets found.

Gotta be more cautious with my vert as well...

[powersteeringless180sx]

dude where in socal did this happen? Reading these threads always makes me nervous

[xpl2007]

Thats why you always get insurance full and extra.... I wish they would steal my shit...lol
Sorry to hear good luck,....

[Farzam]

Post up some pics

Good luck with finding it...

[Driven08]

I was pretty close on buying his wheels. :(
I got only 1 picture of his car hope it helps and ill keep out on the lookout.

I hope you find your car.

[Hillkill]

I just saw that vert 2 days ago. Guy was super cool and ran me down in my new vert. That really really sucks since it was such a clean car. This kinda crap is making me scared for my vert's life. Me and all my friends will keep an eye out for it or any pieces that might have came off of it. We need like an amber alert for 240's or something.

[Slammed Assassin]

crazy another stolen car..ill keep my eye out down over here..

[slow40sx]

i hate to say it but the odds are if u find the car its gonna be a bare shell, people usually don't steal cars to joy ride they usually strip that bitch and dump it somewhere that has happened to 3 of my friends in the past 2 months makes me wanna kill somebody :rl: haha but i really hop they find the car its a shame to see some bullshit like that happen GL

[ROIDMONKEY]

I just had a clifford alarm install it today with omni sensor/proximity sensor and a system that calls my cellphone when the alarm goes off . this whole car taking shit is fucked up , sorry for that guy

[astrophixvox]

Hope you find it!!! People don't have any respect! Good luck!!

[Apossiblehybrid]

Only guarantee it won't get stolen is parking in the garage. I'll keep an eye out down here in san diego.

if they really want it this wont matter. they can break into your garage or use a device to open it up.

[WISH ONE]

EVILways's RED VERT. fits description. ????????

[Gnnr]

I hope they find the car soon and intact. :( Was there any sort of security on the car?

Thats why you always get insurance full and extra.... I wish they would steal my shit...lol
Sorry to hear good luck,....

Hah. Good luck trying to claim that. Most insurance companies are a bitch to get money from on the value of just the car, trying to get the value of the mods too!? psssshhhh forgedaboutit....

[916S14]

my god another one, everytime i log on to zilvia i read stuff like this. Its sad. Thieves are no good bastards and i hope you find your car intact enough to not make you cry. Had 3 of my cars stolen, i know how it feels. Good luck to you.

[CrimsonRockett]

Sucks to hear.

If this really is Reuben's car, I kind of would've seen it coming the way his cars are parked.

Way too out in the open, tons of people driving by can easily spot a front mount, and it's stupid easy to spot a modified S13 like that on such a busy intersection.

GL trying to find it in one piece.

[Hooorahh!]

guy told me what they had and wow ! easy 10k loss ... hope u get it back with some parts .. wow ! ! ! !

[WISH ONE]

i just saw this car on like saturday night when i saw reuben....

[thrOwsumDs]

i was with him the night that we had seen the car..... looks like the one in the pic

[WISH ONE]

yeah looks just like the one we saw..... unless theres two almost identical verts.. didnt the other have red mirrors?

[ericcastro]

Sorry to hear man.

I keep waiting to see a thread, "chased down my parts today".
It would be about a guy seeing all his parts on a rusty hatch in Boyle Heights or some sh*t. And chasing down some 18 year old gangster/ricer and getting all the parts back for his car with some police assistance. lol

Cause all these parts are out there. just on the cars of the really retarded ricer 240's that non of us will have anything to do with. maybe we should cruise a couple drag meets and do a parts inventory :)

And we all know at this point, the cars are getting taken on broad daylight on trailers.(its faster and easier and looks somewhat official.)

[PRADOgy]

I will keep an eye out.. what area you from?

Geesh i think we gotta start investigating shit ourselfs these days.. this happens waay to often

[PRADOgy]

. maybe we should cruise a couple drag meets and do a parts inventory


For some reason this just makes perfect sense..

[Bobafreak]

yea this theft thing is out of control. Im glad i keep my car in the garage but i leave my daily honda out for bait but its not something someone would want to steal. I would start checking ebay also the recycler and craigslist frequently. other than that pray to get it back all in one piece. When my civic was stolen since nothing was modified they just stole the radio, ipod, birth control pills and random shit. But they left my tickets to freight fest?....yeah i still dont understand it. But g.l to you sir. I doubt someone would be stupid to drive around in this as well.

[LloydXmas]

damn, sorry to hear the news. I'm glad in louisville the 240 owners are spread thin and the import scene isn't that big so nothing like htis happens often (traffic cops have nothing to do but hassle people). Hope you get your shit back intact.

[drifting.8]

hope u find it i know how it feels to lose a car..

[240trooper]

Good luck man, keepin an eyes out in the 310 area , dont see many modded red verts with fmic. I think if we found who did this we fuck them up! Im glad i live in an apt with a gated downstairs parking no body can get with any big truck or if they started it it would be too loud and plus ppl here with trip if they seen any gangsta figurs around this apt

[vipd240]

Guys thanks for all the positive input and keeping yours eyes out. It was stolen right on the boarder of lakewood/cerritos/and bellflower. We are just trying to figure out how it was even taken. 3.0 quick release, good ignition(not a worn key), no power steering, wheels facing curb a little, and his other layed out in front!! And to boot 1130am on a major street!!

[Healtoeae86]

dang thats right in my hood...

[xpl2007]

ill offer $50 for leads or people who find it!!!
Hows that for a fellow 240 owner!!!

Is it reubens car? this stuff is making...:bite:

[vipd240]

UPDATE:
Car was found this morning at 430am by Lynwood pd. Car was stripped to bone. Basiclly just a shell left! So I guess now we'll be looking out for parts forsale thanks again for the positive thoughts and comments

[Driven08]

That sucks. So everything is gone huh?

[Jeka]

Dang that sucks! I have a quick release too plus an alarm and I still get paranoid. No one believes me when I tell them it can still be stolen. I hate thieves!!!! Good luck to your friend!

Crap. :( Put up a parts list. Some of those should be easy to spot considering its a Vert, and Vert parts are very rare....

[240sxnoob]

damnn that suckks
throw up a parts list yeah?
so we can look out for them

[TSLegendary]

Damn, too many Silvia's being taken i hate it when people steal shit instead of putting their hard earned work into what they truly want.Shit like this makes me so mad. when ever my boys claim they took something or say they their going to it just leaves me in disappointment. What you steal doesn't stay as long in your hands as something you earned, eventually karma gets you back with fury.Really hope you get your car back.

[motorsnail]

I put money on it all his shit is on one vert. Nobody steals a vert to sell the parts makes no sence they put it on their shit. So just look for a vert with his bumpers and shit spray painted. Some hood kid got a vert for xmas figure out witch one.

Also remember they live by where you found it you dont just tow a striped 240sx across the city and not look funny. Go look for a vert in that area they got you parts. If the top was taken to then it was sombody that needed it.

[vipd240]

Yeah I agree on that! We are gonna scope out that area. Here's a list from what I can remeber.
-Uras monkey magic aero
Real deal not fake
-origin front 30mm fenders
-brick headlights
-gtr grill
-chargespeed hood 4 pinned
-works 17x9/17x10
-project kics lugs
-cusco coilovers
- front tiebar
- ruca
- lower toe arms
- whiteline sways
-180sx dif 5bolt
-buddy club exhaust
-sr20det blacktop
-hks cams
-hks cam gears
-unorthodox under drive pullies
- super v belts
-turbo manifold
-t28 w/hks actuator
-hks hotpipe
-hks blow off
-hks front mount
-Circuit sport overflow
-Greddy catch can
-greddy breather tank
-samco hoses
-koyo radiator
-flexlite twin fans
-polished heat shield
That's about it.

[ericcastro]

^ouch, man thats alot of money.

make sure not to drive a 240 when you go to cruise the area looking for your car.

[DRIFTING_SIL_EIGHTY]

it DOESN'T have to be a VERT for the parts to be installed on another car. majority of those can fit 89-94 240's. cant just target a specific model, though that will stand out.

and well i dunno...karma ???

of course some of you guys wont probably do it but a few will if their hard earned money was taken. its sucks to have anything stolen cuz it has happened to me as well. and if i ever find my parts (of course making sure they are indeed mine) i will take it back by any means necessary. sorry to hear about the loss regardless.

[CrimsonRockett]

^Second that post.

Sucks to hear that it got stripped, but Karma's a bitch.

i have a drift ready vert and if it got stolen i'd be screwed i've got like 15 k in it... gl man i'll keep my eyes open

[s13k4v13]

ill keep my eyes out in long beach for parts

[soreballz]

HAHA. If it wasn't Reuben's car, I'd say "man, that sucks". But, since its his car... FUCK HIM, I'm glad his shit got jacked. It couldn't have happened to a more deserving person.

[drifting.8]

that sucks man this stealing car shitake needs to stop.

yeah, serious?

[soreballz]

Check the links on page 2. Reuben = driftbetty/evilways. Scammer extraordinaire. Doesn't just rip off 240 peeps, but classic car guys, too, apparently.

[Gnnr]

Well then, its De'ja vu. This is just like that other thread from a few weeks ago...

[emayearecee]

LOL....... Gnnr, you beat me to it

i remember reading that same thread and was about to quote it!
oh well, i guess thats the end of the pity party and the end of this thread!

[vipd240]

I know some of you guys don't like him, but he's always done right by me. And I also know he's hooked up a few other members as well(johnny). I only started the thread to bring notice to another stolen car! Please keep comments geared towards that. If you have negative things on him just add to his review. Thanks again to all those.

[CrimsonRockett]

I'll admit, he did hook me up on the coilovers, but he was super shady about it, wasted my time one night by making me wait a few hours for nothing, and was super shady one time I tried to get an exhaust off of him.

If it wasn't for the shady part, he's cool.

But, as others have already said, he's scammed others.

[TSLegendary]

LOL....... Gnnr, you beat me to it

lmao at pity party,and wow at the whole story behind the whole robbery.Makes me more at ease now about my s13 being snatched.

[sijia10358]

man...that sux!! i think that guy just took ur parts and put onto his own car....or....his selling it in Mexico!

~hope you find your parts!!!

[SilviaBricks]

That part list is a fucking lie, I hope the detectives find that shit out. As we all know by now Vipd240 is Reuben and he fabricated a bullshit part list to scam his insurance company also. Get the Word out.
