People...keep an eye out for the following vehicles and or parts of them.

The yellow Tomei R34 drag car

the red R32 GTR that made 970hp at the wheels at final battle

the white Evo 9 that won circuit battle this year

a white evo 7

a silver bug eyed wrx

this is a serious loss of machinery and parts....all eyes and ears open to catch these thieving maggots.

yeah, i would say not much chance of seeing the tomei GTR rolling down oxford st any time soon. most likely already promised to someone in UAE. or middle east. sadly a lot of out stolen cars end up there.

I imagine the japanse owner wont be very happy. and sadly may discourage japanse tuners from sending big dollar special cars out here in the future :laugh:

I feel terribly for the owners of Bel. they are about to engulfed in the middle of a very uncomfortable spot. Poor guys. This sadly again highlights how crucial workshop security and surveilance and insurance is. It's also a coment on how poor our sydney society is that any of that stuff is even necessary.

I hope they recover them all.

YIKES! :wave: that is just as bad. terrible news. I thought they were just selling it for tomei.

Surely someone had some inside info that all these cars would be there at the one time. not just a random break in.

I think the cars will find their way to another country, probably the middle east somewhere.

You reckon?

I think they will be striped for parts and just the bodys destroyed.

Parts will either appear for fale in 6 months or on the peoples own cars etc.

:laugh:

poo stuff this

I remember on a Four Corners report shown a few months ago they reported most major (highly organised) car thief rings end up stripping the cars and shipping the parts over to the middle east.

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
