sorry to hear dude,

That happened to my bro with his first skyline, had no alarm, imob., kill switch etc. He parked it at strathfield while out with the mates, the car was stolen when he arrived back. He called me straight away and we went hunting for it.

For some reason he had a gut feeling that it would be around bankstown area cause it is quite near by. Suprisingly we found the car being thrashed down st hilliers/rookwood rd.

We called the police for assistance, they told us not to follow the car. I was like get fkd, the car isn't insured and thats basically giving it away.

The guys pulled over at a convenice store to buy smokes so we confronted them and it got quite physical. We didn't realise that there was still someone in the passanger. The guys took off and dumped the car, i think they thought it was quick tracked or something.

thought i'd give you abit of an insight to a bad situation which turned brighter.

But i'll keep an eye out for the car mate!!!

Good Luck with the hunt!!

The westfields carpark there is notorious for car theives. I had my old lancer broken into one night up there, called the cops they said usually around 10 cars get broken into each night.

I guess the lesson for everyone is that your first mod should be an alarm/immobiliser. You need an immobilser to get insurance, and if you don't have insurance you need one twice as much!

I hope you get your car back mate.

no news from police yet, no clues either... i really hope it was a bunch of joy riders.. its been 4 days now and i still wonder if my car is in one piece... i loved that car and i see so many other skylines around, it just rubs it in.

thanks for keeping an eye out guys and if anyone has some useful info please pm me.

my dad worked in special ops for Westfield and implemented the system where cameras are trained on peoples faces as they leave the carpark - at Parramatta Westfield.. I am not sure if they did this at Miranda

what the theives used to do is drag a trolley over the sensor and get a ticket out (as if they were a car entering the carpark), then steal a car, and use the ticket to get out of the carpark. They installed cameras that take the rego, and also a camera down low to take the persons face as they lean out to put the ticket in the machine!

Often the cops know the persons face if they are a local dropkick, so they just rock down to the dudes house and it's game over for them!

i suggest you talk to Westfield centre management ASAP about getting the camera footage to the cops...

have you tried this yet?

it's unbelievable the number of skylines stolen in Sydney... i still cant get past the fact my car could be torn apart or dumped... i wish i new... most people seem to recover them in a few weeks.. has anyone had theirs stolen and recovered it in Sydney?

honestly never leave you car in a car park. there are a few stories that the acually security guards call their mates to tell them a particular car has been parked and to try to get them to break in and steal it

also if you look on your insurance papers you will see that a lot of them state that if parked in a car park then the contract is void

Dam thats close to home! I always park my car in Security at westfield miranda, if thats not an option then i park it at KFC which is very open and i would consider very difficult to steal a car from as its on the main road and stuff. ill keep a look out for ya dude!

Best of luck

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
