sucks man.... sorry for the loss & i feel your pain. my civic GSR was stolen once too but i got it back in one piece... i hope you get the same luck as i did.

 

goodluck bro sorry to hear that. that sucks

 

Thanks-

I cruised to my gfriends last night to see her since I wasn't going to see her this week due to hectic work schedule. And between 1am and 6am it was gone. Filed police report and all that jazz. I'm seriously doubting any recovery other then a shell.

Full ITR interior, gauges, floormats, etc. Keep a lookout for these parts being sold possibly here or on Craigslist.com

My USDM ITR seats look a lil worn and there is a definate mark on the driver seat near the left shoulder looks like a burn mark. The rear USDM seat is clean but has a cig burn in the plastic. My gauge cluster was USDM ITR with JDM needles so thats def not the norm. Type R floormats, full ITR exhaust. All carbon fiber pieces and door panels. Old school Racing hart 1 piece wheels with some bad curb rash. (previous owner.. I was working on getting new wheels)

I'm am soooo outta the Honda scene after this. Weather its recovered or not. Can't have anything nice without some lowlifes just going after if.

I'm going to finish my 55' Ford Truck and stick with old hot rods. The Honda scene is to tainted for me.

 

i hear they are a big money in cali,dont give up get a removable steering whell and a cut off switch.

 

the kill switch is a good idea but that won't stop a professional theif with a tow truck. also, smart theives carry those little fuse boxes that us integra owners have as well as steering wheels. it's hard to be totally theft proof nowadays... just gotta pray and watch where you park ur shiet.. even if u have a 400 dollar viper system and lo-jack.

Wheel , cut-off etc.. it may slow someone down but def won't prevent anything.

It's heartbreaking...

Yes, because of the car but you can always get another, there are always more parts and build to do. The heartbreaking part is how many theives are out there looking to get yours in this hobby. I've been involved with cars for a long time but this is the only scene were you're scared to sleep, leave it anywhere or show it to anyone.

 

that is true,i am in st louis and it isnt as bad.they just steal american cars and go joyriding,but i do know how you feel,they stole my motorcycle from right outside my apartment last year

 

another stolen car in so cal...

it seems like the ones that are getting picked up are the ones with nice ITR interiors and full JDM stuff... pretty fucked you can't have nice things

 

Yeah my gfriend said "Sweetie, just fix up your 55" Truck and drive that" while coworkers and other people say "Just drive a shitbox that way no one wants it" Which is a sad reality to stray away from nice things because there are people who can't work for theirs. All the hard work I put into my car and now this. I specifically didn't do anything major to the motor thinking "Hmm I don't want to invest 3k+ on a build and then it be jacked" So I just went with something nice and clean.

Yeah two months... It's just starting to sink in.

 

Man thats terrible. Im in that area pretty often too. Hearing all these stories is making me think that mine is gonna get stolen too.

... ... Good descriptions on the parts. Ive been looking for an itr interior so hopefully if the a-holes are selling stuff on craigslist someone notices.

 

Yeah, thanks man. I've been on the ball this morning making all my calls. I really really hate saying I'm out of the game so I shall rephrase. I'm out until I have a house/garage/gun. Until then no more Hondas for me.

One thing about my parts is yeah they are easily identifiable. I also had the ITR shift **** boot etc, the trim cupholder and all thats stuff was USDM not JDM. I know that is harder to find then the other JDM stuff. Especially my gauge cluster. I swapped out the USDM ones for JDM yellows. The rear bumper had a hole in it on the left side from another car parking to close. I still have my fingers crossed that I'll see it again.. but I'm already assuming shes been raped of all the goods and left for dead in some back road.

 

This is why I bought a BMW....Good luck stealing it and why would you with such a limited market to sell parts in. So far so good...no theft attempts yet::crossing fingers::. Could happen but, my chances are a lot less vs. a Honda. I have had about 4 theft attempts on my Hondas in the last 7 years. I had a couple of them broken into and all stereo equipment, dvds, clothes, backpacks etc, stolen seperate from theft attempts. Even in front of my own home...Not with it anymore. Been good so far and haven't had any problems. Now I have the CRX which is always garaged or at the shop and a CBR 929 that is ALWAYS in the garage Hope they find it in one piece!

 

where at on ventura blvd,thats my old stomping area.Ventura has heavy traffic almost all the time.

 

Yeah, I'm with you. Next car I get I will make sure I can go to bed and sleep.

 

Whatever, I'm soo over the whole thing and it's only been a few hours. I LOVED my car and was proud of all the work I put into it but I know that interior is gone. Even if I do get it back I don't have the heart to start over again.

Already talked to a friend about taking my truck into a different shop and trying to get it finished ASAP. Flat blue Ford with whitewalls... not exactly a hot item.

Yeah, thanks for all the help Charlie. To bad it is all toast

 

That sucks man, I feel for you. Having had my car broken into twice, I can't imagine having it stolen. I hate that feeling. Like Vincent Vega said in "Pulp Fiction", "It's worth them doing it, just sot I can catch them". I'd love to have cought the little bastards that stole my Cd Player, CDs, my emergancy change, and Even my friggn cup holders! Yeah, and deffinatly do get a gun just in case somone isn't satisfied with just a car. I shot a robber at my place of work last year who was winging a .45 LC revolver. He took 3 .40 cals for less than 400.00 that was in the registar. Wouldn't have even paid for his stiches!
