1. Flatbed and/or forklift.

B. The thieves want the engine and transmission. Lo-Jack will help recover the rest of the car. Do you really want it back? The people who designed the conversion engine mounts should be hanged, drawn and quartered. For starts.

III. Garage it. Don't park it on the street in Newark, NJ. If you're departing Newark International Airport, don't park it in the long term lot. Take the airport limo. Or your "winter beater".

Why the words for the people designing the conversion kits. Used to do conversions and the usual source for engines was either a salvage yard or an OEM supplier, both legitimate - and we've already seen pics of totaled TSX's on the site. Thieves I agree should be punished quickly and cheaply.

I can't see Hawaii being a high theft state only because where do you go with it... yeah it's a big island but it ain't that big. It's not like there are tons of ports for ships to come in a take them off either... or am i missing something?

Sad but true, we are one of the "leaders" in crime rates per 100,000 people. See these FBI statistics in this article

I was at the Bally's in Hollywood a few years ago... and this guy had his car stolen. I asked him how it happened... and he told me that someone was standing next to him taking his time putting his junk in a locker. Apparently the guy watched him put his combination in... and just simply opened the Master lock.
At my gym, there's a big board full of hooks for you to put your keys on as you enter. You pick them up as you leave. I've seen another gym with a box in the front where you can just drop your keys. I bet there's cameras trained on that area, but it's still a risk.

And no.. I'm not telling you where my gym is. :P

Is that a big selling point for your auto security packages?

Hmmmmmm I wonder how much the TSX would be worth stripped? And what parts can be interchangeable with older civics/integras???

Is the TSX's engine worth more in a Civic/Integra than a whole TSX is?? Or is it just that it's easier to chop and steal, while an intact TSX can be tracked?

i think they chop em up and hook up thier cars with em to race. At least thats how the scene out here in NJ/NYC is. I know toooo many people even in car clubs especially that steal cars and strip em to death. to hook up thier old ass shyts. Or they buy a crashed car with clean title and fix it up with a stolen cars parts.
