post-7002-1146727397.jpgbelow are pics of my car.

over a year ago i met a bloke by the name of Steven Verrocchi. seemed very geneous. over the course of around 8 months we traded parts knowlage and everything was going well the parts i wanted were hand delivered by this bloke and nothing seemed out of place. my plan was to purchase and engine thati was to put alot of money into and in the end i did of steve verrocchi.

this bloke even took the time to visit for birthday parties and in the end became a really good friend.

in july last year i organised for my car to picked up and transported to his workshop. in the attached pitures you can seen my old engine was removed and work had began.

after a few months i began to question how long he was taking... and he threw trades for numerous gtrs and such at me inplace of my car if i couldnt be bother waiting... it was excuse after excuse on why it was taking so long... even his sone apparently died.

in september i accepted a trade for a 33 GTR with cash adjustment... through steve verrochi dealing with one of his family members..... it got to the point where he said he was a matter of hours away from where i live in MT Gambier SA.

then nothing... no phone call... his phone wouldnt even ring.... i rang the local towns he was supposibly in and there was no sign of him.... it was a con... all from the start...

since then i have notified police everything possible... i really need some help if finding my car if it still excist so any help would be very much appreciated...

it has been some time now and still havent hered a thing... has anyone seen this car or any part of it.... it was a unique looking 33.

more pics tomorrow afternoon of custom fusion green boot install with fibre glass molds for subs..... anyone please help. i want it back of compensation for him if anyone know were to find him,'

Is he Victorian?

Do you have his workshop address (where you shipped the car in july) or any contact details you can share? If he's from my side of town i'd be happy to drop by his workshop and remind him of his obligations to you..

Wow - that's absolutely screwed - what have the police said? got any photos of him from your parties? Give them to the police I guess..

good luck with it..

Did you have insurance out of interest? had you signed your car over to him?

Wow, I'm really sorry to hear, this sh|t just keeps getting bigger and bigger!

I remember how we went to his Dyno Day Adz.

Guy seems to be nice but guess thats all in the act.

He used to work at SelectMaz in Epping, there are warrants for his arrest in many states.

If anyone knows his whereabouts contact the police and we would love to see his fat ass infront of a judge.

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • 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
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
