  1. Still on the run? it's been 3 months or something hasnt it?

    I'll keep an eye out, it's fairly distinctive.

    Yeah I think it's still out there hey. I had a phone call from someone saying they seen it Quinns last week. f**king annoying that the police still haven't caught it.

  2. Are you saying people you know have seen it being driven around?? That's gotta suck...

    If I see it I'll def keep it in sight and have the police on the phone mate.

    Where was it last seen?

    And yep, photo would be handy..

    Yeah my mates have been in a chase with it but it keeps losing them. It was on it's run in tune with low boost so it's not exactly the fastest thing on the road right now, most of us only have 4wds so it's outrunning us no matter what we try. Best thing we have going for us is that we can hit it and get it off the road in order to get the assholes. At this point in time I'd rather have a dent in it than see them hurt it and ruin all the work I've poured into it.

    It was last seen off Connolly Dr in Merriwa. It's movements seem to be mainly from;

    Wangara to Ocean Reef Rd, Lenore Dr, Caporn, Pinjar Rd, Joondalup Dr, Wanneroo Rd, Hester Ave.

    It's been spotted travelling these roads more than once so they're in the general area.

    Thanks for everyones help.

  3. I will keep an eye out for it. Got any pics? It is easy to replace number plates.

    Also, chasing some data here...

    Is it fitted with an Immobiliser?

    Is it fitted with an Alarm?

    Do you know how the car was stolen? (Keys stolen/ Hot wired)?

    The car was fitted with an immobiliser and alarm but they've got my keys. I was pulling it out of my workshop when I got out to lock the gate behind me. I left the car running like I have for the past 4 years as I'm less than 10mtrs away from it, but as soon as I had my back turned a VN or VP Commodore pulled up a dude jumped out and ran into my car. I turned around to seeing him shut the door and then they both just sped off.

    I wish I would have just turned it off and taken the keys out but I was letting it idle to warm up a bit and I've done this 100,000 times before and nothing has ever happened. No ones ever even slowed down. Police think they've been watching me and my car though which is why they've done it, but I mean why thrash it wouldn't you have gotten it off the road and stripped it down if you knew what was in it?

    Anyway here's a pic:

  4. Thanks for any help, it's appreciated.

    Cars been seen joyriding all weekend yet no one can catch it! Police haven't seen it yet either.

    I spent 2 years working on this car and just getting it right and then someone comes and just takes it, it had 80km left on it's run-in period and was booked in today (Monday) for it's full tune.

    Not sure if they'll strip it or burn it but I've put together a mod list in case anyone starts seeing my parts pop out;

    RB25/30 w. CP and SPOOL forged internals

    Tomei 260 degree Poncams

    Plazmaman Plenum

    Garrett 3076 w. 82 rear T3

    6boost Highmount

    Sard 550cc Injectors

    TRUST oil cooler kit

    Greddy Frontmount with custom piping

    RSR 4 door exhaust

    Defi Link Advance Gauges (Oil, Water, Oil Pressure and Boost)

    Turbosmart e-boost street

    Vipec ECU

    Can't remember the brand of coilies I had on it but they were silver and blue...... haha

    Driftworks camber arms, tie rods etc... for front and rear

    Nismo 1.5way

    East Bear Recliners

    These are the main things I can think of right now. I doubt whether these guys are smart enough to sell it all or whatever but you know it's worth it to keep an eye out.

    Cheers

  5. Hey my cars been stolen. Called the cops and everything but if anyone sees anything please ring me on 0439987333.

    Its a R34 Sedan White. Licence Plates 1CDO100. Stolen from my yard on Berriman Dr Wangara last seen heading West toward Wanneroo Rd.

  6. Hey everyone my battery light came on last night in my R34 while I was driving around town and I got to see it for a few seconds before all of a sudden my revs just died out and my car died, then immediately came back to life. The light would then intermittently turn on and off and the car died once or twice more then it stopped, and for about an hour nothing happened, it just drove normal. After this hour it happened again when I was just about home so I parked up and have left it alone today.

    I tested the alternator this morning and it was charging at 13.8v and I checked my battery and that was holding 13.8v also while the car was running. Does anyone have any ideas of what this could be?

    Mods:

    RB25/30

    ViPEC

    Plazmaman Plenum

    3076 on a 6boost Highmount

    50mm Turbosmart Wastegate

    Sard Injectors

    Intank 044

    Battery Mounted in boot (I checked the earths and connections on this and they looked good)

    Any help will be appreciated.

    Thanks

  7. just standard compliance cat at imports 101 don't know the BRAND name.. $100 i believe and labour $165 + had to retune my car $550 was running bit lean then gas test $150 -$250 engineer 450 so it adds up.

    it all depends who you get at pits to inspect your car i had mine low mounted on 6boost,plazmaman plenum and koyo radiator all shine bits and blow off was plumed back .

    it took me 3 1/2 months to engineer the car, it's not that easy to engineer the car it a long process.

    25/30 nice how much power u running at the moment ? is it huge difference from 25 neo? was planning to go that path if you don't mind me asking how much did it all set u back. you can pm rough figures.

    was thinking of selling my r34 i can get a VE GTS from friend for good price. i still love my r34 would not sell it i have spent heaps on $$$ decisions, decisions, don't know what to do i have to coz i travel a lot by car so want something more comfy.

    I haven't got it running yet, just picked it up yesterday but I'll let you know how it goes. I was running 400bhp with my 25 Neo before with the same mods so we'll see how we go :)

    I'm just going to have to give the engineering a go and see how it pans out. I was just worried that if I took the car to the pits and they didn't like it if they could sticker or flag it themselves......... I'll PM you costs

  8. I haven't had a cat on the car since the day I bought it. It has been on my to do list but you know until I got caught it probably wasn't going to happen...... May just bite the bullet and get it done.

    How does engineering all the work in the car go. I'm probably not gonna last long on the road as I'm running a 25/30 with highmount 3076, Intercooler, Oil Cooler, Catch Can, Plazmaman Plenum and some other stuff. Does it just cost monies and time or if I take it there asking them to have a look am I going to be asking for trouble?

    My exhaust is a proper exhaust by the way just super loud........

  9. Hey Guys,

    Just about to have the 34 back on the road and before it was super loud. So loud it annoyed me and my mates driving around me. I have 3" maybe 3.5" RSR exhaust. Straight through from a 3076. Now I should get a cat, I probably won't, but will it help reduce the noise level by much? Will a mid muffler help alot and what is a good one to get and to get it installed......

    Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

  10. Yeah what he's saying is that I'm robbing Peter to pay Paul by limiting oil to the head in order to feed the bearings down low. Now he wants to keep the head well lubricated and the bearings too.......... Which is why he's saying get another pump..

    This guy builds drag engines which so far have lasted 7 - 8 years and counting so he wants this thing to last forever and wants to have everything right. But I'm not trying to run 1500hp like he is haha. I need some convincing that all this extra stuff is going to be worth it.

  11. Hi Guys,

    Got a question. I'm building a RB25/30 (Neo) and my builder is wanting to not run restrictors in the block and have as much oil all around as possible. Now I will be running a ASR comp sump and N1 oil pump with billet gears and thought this would be sufficient. In his eyes the pump is shit and won't flow enough oil and he wants to add an additional exterior pump, still wet sump, which I really don't think is necessary. Mainly because I don't want to spend the $$$$ where it may not be required.

    So my question is will the pump be sufficient to run without the recommended restrictors? He is wanting me to run near on 8 bar of pressure all the time which is huge! This car will be street driven, but will see track events through the year.

    Gear I am running is -

    CP pistons 8.5:1 (20thou over)

    Spool Rods

    ACL bearings

    TRUST 1.2mm Head Gasket

    ROSS balancer

    ASR Sump

    N1 Oil Pump

    N1 Water Pump

    Tomei Poncams

    Plazmaman Plenum

    GT35 Turbo w .82 rear

    Oil Cooler so and so forth

    Looking to run between 20 - 25psi and 450 - 500hp

    So what do you guys think? Is he going over the top or what do you see wrong with what he is doing, ie. not restricting oil to the head. Also restricting oil to the head, is this purely due to too much oil being present or any other reason. He seems to think that I'm sorta robbing the head to keep oil down the bottom end to save bearings, whereas I thought it was purely because you end up flooding the head.

    Cheers
