Hey guys, first post and sadly not a good one. My R33 Gts25t S2 was stolen from a westfields car park at Miranda (Sydney) between 12:30-3:30 Monday 13 feb (yesterday) a heap of personal stuff was in there also and im devastated... if anyone spots a white skyline rego AWX-70E please pm! my life is over without my car.. I can only wait for the police to contact me… by now its probably torn apart and its guts dumped in some VL…the thought….unbearable…

f**kING THIEVES, I"LL KILL U ALL AND YOUR FAMILIES .......yes I hate them with a vengence. Might not have gotten my skyline stolen before, but my dad's old nissan got stolen a few years back after spending weeks restoring the whole thing. Hope you have insurance, seems skylines are being stolen left and right these days. Wait til I get my hands on one of these little shit holes, they'll wish they were dead.

Sorry to be so emotional, I'm usually not like this, but the topic of thieves is a sore spot.

If you find the thieves, and need a hand cutting off their limb, let me know.

shit man sorry to hear that. I would be devastated if i got my line stolen. Good luck with getting it back i'll keep an eye out for sure.

It looks like most of the lines that have been thieved recently haven't had alarms or immobilisers in them.

Like lingeringsoul said, if you need a hand dishing out vigilante justice i'm sure there will be a few people on here willing to help out..

Once again man hope u find it in 1 piece.

i think you have fair chance of recovery. the fact it had no alarm or immobiliser and was stolen from westfield during the day means they were most likely opportunity theievs and will thrash it till it needs petrol/they crash/they get caught. Then you will get your poor car back. fingers crossed.

i talked to my mechanic about it and he said skylines are surprisingly easy to break into and their genuine parts are always being targeted... whats even more disturbing was there were 4 skylines on two levels…easily visible from the bottom… it seemed mine was the easiest to get to..he said they most likely bent the window out and started it ... i didn’t see glass on the ground... maybe because a car had parked in my spot once it was gone...

Not familiar with that Westfield but I suggest you try to request for the suveilence video of the car park(gate) when the car exited. Dont leave this too long as this will be more difficult later on.

i went to security first and asked for video footage but they told me they have never had any video surveillance in their car park... the thieves have obviously done this before :rofl:

Was on the phone speaking to a mechanic who gets alot of tires from the place next door to westfield, approx a few cars per day go missing from that westfield!!!

Will keep a lookout for the car. Rule of thumb, buy an imoboliser and alarm when purchasing the car, gives you piece of mind when u park it at least

      You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before

      OK, so a bunch of trim needs to come off to get to the rear shock top mounts. Once the seat is out of the way, the plastic trim needs to come off. Remove 2 clips at the top then slide the trim towards the centre of the car to clear the lower clip Next you need to be able to lift the parcel shelf, which means you need to remove the mid dark trim around the door, and then the upper light trim above the parcel shelf. The mid trim has a clip in the middle to remove first, then lift the lowest trim off the top of the mid trim (unclips). At the top there is a hidden clip on the inner side to release first by pulling inwards, then the main clip releases by pulling the top towards the front of the car. The door seal comes off with the trim, just put them aside. The the lighter upper trim, this is easy to break to top clips so take it carefully. There is a hidden clip towards the bottom and another in the middle to release first by pulling inwards. Once they are out, there are 3 clips along the rear windscreen side of the panel that are hard to get under. This is what the rear of the panel looks like to assist:

      R34 manual conversion speed signal wire finding, need help

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes. Autos typically work from the speed sensor on the pinion shaft of the diff. I also think that even if you have a proper speed sensor for the bog manual in the manual box, that the signal it outputs is not compatible with the auto dash anyway. You should consult that manual (the book, not the gearbox).

      And I just realised that that advice is slightly nonsensical for a GTR, because you need 2 of them. But it is otherwise true.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Having had a reasonable look at the car, I'll be able to remove the (one time) rams and retract the hinge (they are held in the down location by a tiny (m3?) sacrificial screw) which will get it physically back in shape. From there if you remove the rams you need a resistor to turn off the airbag light (as Mark said, there are plug in kits and I might go that way because its reversible). And...per all the threads on here, even if you have the resistors to turn off the airbag light, the bonnet light will stay on as it writes to the airbag computer history - that is either replace the airbag controller, reprogam the EPROM (if I can work out how), or remove the globe from the dash. Having seen how sensitive this system is, if I had my time over I'd pre-emptively remove the rams, even on a road car, because this is all a very unnecessary pain in the arse. Reminds me, time to go and have a look at the Fuga too....
