Ok so I had some really strange car in front of my house tonight reving its motor and it took off slowly when i opened the door. So needless to say it worried me enough to leave and come to my friends house.

Until I can get some good security, what are a few good ways to disable the car that a common idiot thief wouldn't think/have time to find quicky?

I'd rather not have to take my ecu in and out of my car, looking for something easier/less obvious.

 

main relay...and ecu...and install a detachable streeing wheel.

 

fuel kill switch...look for the how to on team integra.net

 

yeah i plan to do kill switchs of some sort.

but right now what im looking for is just somethingI can pull off that is quick and not very noticeable, for tonight and until I have time to install switches.

 

take the sparkplug wires off

 

injectors kill switch
Fuel Kill switch
Ignition Kill switch
Clutch lock
steering wheel lock
Battery kill switch
Clutch kill switch
u can also take ur ecu fuse out everynite shhhhhh....

 

take off your wheels

 

put a ford tempo badge on it. most thieves aren't smart or they wouldn't be stealing. a ford tempo badge would keep it safe....trust me on this...

 

For the Fuel Kill switch is there a website that shows ya how to do it .. anyother info i searched and i found a ton of stuff on it but not really no pictures or the proper way to do it just alot of ideas ..

do they really? i dont know im no theif

 

take out your...


gun and sleep in the car :]

 

pull your motor and seats, what are they gonna steal if you stole everything first

 

Back it up aganist your house or garage or any building and park a car in front of it. Taking you wheels off is your best bet but i had to come up with something new.

 

take out the spark plugs but leave the wires in, that'll take em a while to figure out.

 

take your plug wires off completely and leave them in the house i dont think theyd be carring around a set of plug wires for your car

 

I think ecu trick is good but any time you do it make sure you warm up your car so it can idle re-learn.but also go with a killswitch to the fuel pump,i work at a honda dealership as a tech,not saying i know it all but we get alot of theft recovers and when we inspect them most of the ones that had a good hidden killswicth there cars were not stolen just broken into.not saying its good but at least you still kinda got your ride unless thet totally strip the car

ive heard thieves actually clearing out like 2-3 cars to get to an integra before..pretty insane but it happens

 

never saw any reply about removing the battery... thats pretty quick, unplug distributor input plugs, and remove subs if you have any in the car.

I HATE THEIVES!

 

I have a kill switch that interrupts the ground of the distributor. Everyone I know seems to do the fuel pump or ignition, so I decided to do something different.

 

plug in ur air bags to the ignition switch through alarm, so when it's armed and somebody tries to start your car air bags would go out. i don't think they will steal yuor car after making so much noise

 

pull out the ecu fuse, take out spark plug wires.

 

watch your car or do some home security.....then keep a 12 gauge close by....no ammo I don't think you would want someone to actually get hurt or killed, but just aim the gun at em....and yell....they'll run

I do like the gun idea, but I live in the sticks and if it did happen to me, I could actually get away with that....I dont recommend doing it in a place with a lot of close houses. That is one good thing about where I live, really don't have to worry about thieves

 

quick and dirty method till you get it set up, just unplug your fuel pump there should be a connector for it right above the tank.

also if you have a dry cell battery think of relocating it to the back. I've heard of a lot of thieves that just pop the hood and cut the battery cables to kill your alarm, then they have plenty of time to disable the alarm system before reconnecting the battery. most of the time if they pop the hood and no battery they ditch the car because at this point the alarm is going off.
