Who would want to answer this honestly? This is exactly the type of information a thief would want access to. It is known they lurk amongst forums looking for anyone dumb enough to volunteer this type of information.

 

agree

 

I used to not have access to a garage, i was so paranoid once i moved out of my parents house, and in to an apartment, i sold the car. I boguht the car back once i got a garage and a safe place to keep it. I now keep mine locked up in the garage, but it doesnt run, ever.

 

Mods -please close this thread, before someone accidentally answers this question and gets their car stolen...

 

haha i thought about it as soon as i posted it that people would take this the wrong way. if i wanted to steal anyones car.all anyone would have to do is look in your sig. see what you got. buy a part off you for $20, have it shipped to a house. then i have your address. if i were trying to steal a car, would i post up on honda-tech?

 

Parking a modded car of any kind outside puts you at risk of theft. Parking a itr just outside just draws more attention to little kids because of what it is. Really I park my cars anywhere I feel. Not to worried about theft. If you have the right security setup you are good to go. But even having the right security setup does not mean they won't attempt to try to go for it. You can't stop someone that wants to press ther luck..

 

My car is in my driveway right now because I've been to lazy to move it into the garage today. I also drive my yellow ITR to my fulltime job at the mall and park it in the parking lot. Bring it on thieves.

 

Unrelated but my old s2000 was google street viewed back when they took pics in my old neighborhood. There's not too many secrets unless your car stays in the garage and never runs(like mine )

 

Well honestly, ANY modded Honda (esp pre-2001 models) that sits in the street is a sitting duck frankly. People in all areas have saw these things get snatched up like candy from a baby.

So if you know you're not going to be able to protect it, avoid it, unless you have money to burn. And by protect it, I mean through the following:

- garage/backyard that has a gate/locks or cameras/lights
- alarm (w/ pager, backup siren, wired and hidden PROPERLY)
- kill switches
- boot
- detachable wheel
- ECU removed

You will be taken advantage of, and it's only a matter of time. There are some who have dodged the bullet, but they are THE exception not an exception.

I've heard of people having a few of the things I listed, and even still their cars turn up missing. So please, don't be naive and end up regretting it later.

 

Fixed.

 

Haha, I'm so glad that a professional only found one error in my ways.

Means I'm on a good track. And dude how I wished you were in NY so I could have my alarm done by you. We're a bit short of people like you in the Northeast.

 

Agreed.

 

Wouldn't be the first time, won't be the last. No idea why you would need this information to begin with.
