Seriously. Owning a swapped Honda or a "tuned" Honda just isn't worth it anymore. Heck, I was paranoid owning my S2000 and I kept it in the garage! My sold his Integra Type R for a NSX partially because of this. Ask yourself this question: Do parts from my car easily fit in a Civic? If no, then you're probably pretty safe owning that car.

Consider a GPS tracking device so you can track your car if it gets stolen. The best way to prevent car theft is to actually help the police catch the thieves and if you have some means to tell the officer: "According to my GPS tracker, the car is on the corner of 24th and main!"

last night my daily car GSR Integra almost got stolen last night. They went from the rear driver side door window (4 door), to get in. and they trying to hot wire the car. I have alarm on, but they probably did something to switch it off, Immobilization is installed as well.

any other tools that I can use to put on my car? or any tips?


any vendor here, who's selling Steering Wheel Lock for a fair price. I need 2, for the FRS as well.. ugh!

Just install a hidden fuel cut off switch disabling the fuel pump. Put it somewhere only you know and have access to from the driver seat. Short of towing it they won't be able to drive it away.

My dealership offered it to me. They somehow stick or etch a code on your windows that's unique to your car.

Cliffs: You own a GSR.

I've had two Hondas stolen. Not fun...but at this point it's almost part of owning a "hot" Honda.
