Hey guys, Sunday night i left my R31 coupe outside the girls place at clayfield. come down to goto work and eveything was a mess, seats down and ash tray open. They took over 1500 with of all my tools for work, amp, speakers, sunnies ect...

Just want to remind everyone after it having happend to me and being told by the cops how often this does happen in brisbane to not leave any stuff in the car overnight. If they dont get caught in the act there's bugger all chance they will be caught.

Has anyone else had any problems with theft recently?

Cheers, Kev

I had our car broken into while I was less than 50 metres away at football training on Shaw Road at Kedron. Very busy road and the window was broken on the road side!! someone must have seen it but we seem to be blind to anything else going on these days. My wife's ID for her work was found on the only road leading to our estate. Seems they found our address and keys and were digging through her purse on the way to break into our house!! Big Dog is a good deterrant!!

This is why I cover everything up if I have to leave it. Move stuff to the boot etc. Seats back. Really if they cant see anything they will move on to the next car. Its too much of a risk for them to go digging for something that isnt there.

And with what Dave said. NEVER leave anything in the car to say where you live, and NEVER leave anything so they can start the car or get in to your work or house.

Some insurance companys will only cover a break in if its just that. If they BROKE in.

Hard luck tho dude.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
