Default Theives attempted to steal my car on thanksgiving and my car pwned them

It all started last friday when my car was broken into and nothing was taken. I knew the idiots would come back for it. Here's a pick when shes not in beater mode.


Well, i came outside this morning at about 5am to let the woman out to go to work and my car was gone. Expletive. Unlucky for them i was prepared. Pulled my spark plug wires out every night since then and have a keyed kill switch as well as my honda theft deterent system which disables the ignition system. So i knew it wasnt going to be driven away. So i went on the prowl. There is a big hill right at the end of my screet(lol see rackem *****). so i embarked down it and of course there was my car. Called the cops. While i was waiting i saw a suspectise IS300 drive down past where i was and busted a u-turn and flipped his high beams on and hauled *** out. It had DC plates and about 4 people in it driving throught my area at 5am. I think they were coming back to get some parts or finish the job. Cops came finger printed the car got like 2 prints.

Now to the damage
1. Ignition, steering column, and wiring is trashed.
2. Stole my nitrous bottle
3. Cut my horn wire
4. Ruined my window visor
5. Worst of all, i guess from my car not starting its knocking like all hell






And the present they left me

Topics like this are the reason the hatch stays stock and the S2000 sleeps in the garage.

man that sucks.
I think I'm gonna wire one of these in my car and hook up a video camera to record when it's triggered. Maybe have it wired to the steering wheel and inside door handles. This way I can shock the **** out of them every time they try to get out of the car

There is no way They did ANY engine Damage by not being able to start it!!! if they did get it to spin-over (activated the starter), But it didn't "start"....after it spins over a few revolutions....it builds oil pressure so there is no way it is knocking because of them....Just thought i'd share that with you all..

After u crank on it a bit, oil psi will be up above ATleast 20psi and continue to rise the more you spin it over. I know my h22 with it disabled via my security, i can try to start it and my oil pressure goes right up.

honda's theft deterent system disables the ignition comepletely. There was no such thing as cranking. Im assuming they popped the clutch numerous times while driving down a 1/4 mile hill

Glad to hear that the theives didn't come back and do something to you, and that you're ok.

Yes, this stuff happens...and the ONLY REAL WAY of keeping your car safe is having a guy with a gun watch it at all times...lol


As for me though, my alarm and my 9 mm is gonna have to be enough
