As the title says, my car just got bricked.

It's an MR30 skyline sedan.

I heard a wierd sound while I was sitting at my computer, so I went to go outside and have a look and heard a smash. When I opened the door I heard a shuffeling and I couldn't work out what was going on.

The police came around but chances are I reckon they wont be able to do anything about this. I don't really have many enemies so it sorta rules that out as a possible reason. I think.

The most anyone has ever really done before is slashed one of my tires, I reckon it's probably the same person. I hate this, if someone has a problem with me then they should just confront me instead of being a coward about it and striking when my back is turned. The reason why I think this is specific is because my tire was slashed and it has been slashed before.

On the otherhand, the pizza bar up the road got its window smashed like 10mins or whatever before mine got done so maybe this is random, or maybe a couple of guys are going around trying to dishout their own grade of retribution for small things that probably aren't even worth thinking about.

This sucks.

Man that's messed up. I had that sort of stuff happen around my way, so much so i'd tell all my mates to park in the driveway.. these days it's not so bad, but yes I understand how frustratrating it is when someone does something like that and there's nothing you can do about it.

Where you at if you don't mind me asking?

Ya, what also sucks is that my insurance wont cover it. It's only 3rd party. I wish I had a garage.

Flinders park.

That sucks man! Had some little shits today near where I live throw something at my car as I drove past. I stopped, looked in the rear view mirror and saw the little coward start to shit himself. Did a u-turn, got outta my car and drilled him. Shoulda seen the look on his face :P His friends who were laughing when he threw what ever it was, distanced themselves from him and kept on talking to themselves like they didn't know the guy. When I asked him why he threw something at my car (turns out it was a rock - lucky he's a crap shot) he responded with "It's fun"

These idiots seriously have nothing better to do than destroy other peoples property, it's a sad world now where we have to watch our little toys 24/7 in fear of some jealous ingrate doing something to it

I'll be hitting up a wreckers. I'm using this an exuse to borrow some money off my parents so I can do it myself and then buy other shit for my project on the side. (which thankfully wasn't targeted, althought the front windscreen is already cracked on that car)

Maybe I should get two windscreens while I'm there, one for my norm car and one for my project. f**kit I'll prolly do that, though I wont be left with too much money remaining to get the other shit I'm after. I really need a house with a garage, just another excuse to move out after I sort my project car.

I really can't stand disrespectful people like this. It really is a satisfying to scare people shitless after they do things like this. It's too bad I couldn't see the f**kers. I think they must've had a get away car come to think of it. I remember hearing something take off abruptly.

yeah that sucks and if it had hit the car and u hit him your up for assault (assuming hes of the age for you to hit not older child)

or if it hit your car u chased him and HELD him to call the cops his parents would slap assault charges on you :) cant win

I know how infuriating this is. I went out 1 nite down Henley Beach way & left my car parked on the street. While I was gone some wankers felt the need to make a mess of my car by throwing an egg at it. Not only did it leave a mess it also shattered the paint where it hit, & I'd only had it resprayed less than 6 months before.

This is now going to be getting fixed up by Doyles' while the car is in there. But I swear if I caught the a#@h@*$s that did it, there'd be broken limbs.

Youth have nothing to fear when it comes to consequences so they have no respect, I'd love to show them what it means when someone doesn't respect them........

      After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
