The problem is the bastards will break in and steal your cool hub!!!

To me the problem with pulling the starter fuse is that you can push start it without the starter pretty easy. Now the fuel pump fuse.. that's a different story.

I had tons of security in my Integra same path with the EVO. Alarm, Fuel pump kill switch + a couple other tricks. Hey but nothing stops a tow truck. I try to park so it cant be towed.

dude I live 1 town over from Briarwood. Try to find indoor parking for your EVO otherwise you will be taking a chance of the car getting messed with. Briarwood is a nice area but it is kinda congested there and parking spaces are very tight....

The town next to Briarwood is Jamiaca, Queens, which also isnt the greatest area either.

I live in Forest Hills, which is a upper middle class, more afflulent neighborhood.
The closer you live to Queens Blvd, the more cramped the housing and parking is.... and that also the subway and bus lines run along queens blvd....

Kill switches are the way to go so that doesnt happen.
