My previous ride was stolen from my mechanics work shop. Depending on there insurance, the owners could be at a huge loss, or the work shop.

From what i remember (my workshops ins policy) required the vehicles keys to be left inside the cars or work shop. Also the reason why most shops have a sign saying leave vehicle at owners risk is because most policies dont cover theft.

I was lucky to get mine back because it was amatures that stole it, this sounds pretty organised.

GL to Bel in finding the cars and resolving the matter.

Just because they have a sign there it means nothing, they are still liable ( duty of care). If they can't afford to pay and they go broke you can't get anything . I hope they catch the bastards...

There was a case I read that was very applicable to this situation.

It involved a workshop where the keys were left unsecured in a workshop, there was no alarm etc, and a car was stolen.

From memory, negligence on the part of the workshop must be proven. e.g. did they take adequate steps, such as securing the premises etc.

Furthermore, they are able to exclude their liability for negligence.

Not saying all car theifs are imigrants and not saying all imigrants are criminals / trouble. But for the size of their population, they are very over-represented :laugh:

I'm not saying all white people are two faced, lying, unprincipled and greedy f**kwits whose intellectual handicaps are only surpassed by their inability to comprehend reality....but for the size of the Australian Federal Government Caucasians are very over-represented.

dont beat around the bush, if you've got something to say about someone, then just say it :laugh:

lol

+10 points for ingenious role reversal

Now I feel like a white victim ;) Why be hatin a white player? We love the ladies like you do too brother.

Everybody is the same, except for moon men... creepy little green bastards, ANAL PROBES... like what the hell! Who cares... you get good people and bad people... I run into plenty of bad white people, they generally get the title, bogans. Scary thought is bogans now wear "bogans" as a badge... even bands calling them selves "the bogans" and some jackass want to be group called "bogans on the run".

Back on topic, horrible to see this happen. Nothing worse then losing things that matter to you and having no control, even worse when in the hands of another person. Good luck to everybody in finding them... but it does sound very doubtful. But you never know... the future!

If you knew some information about the whereabouts of the cars and the people who stole them, and you rang that number on their website, I wonder how long it would take them to ring the police....

Or would they 'visit' them first.... you know, jus to make sure it is 'them', maybe with about 10 car loads of people????

I really hope this story has a happy ending, surely someone must know something.

Thieves aren't loyal to anyone, and if there is a 10K reward, you can bet your booties that someone knows someone who helped steal these cars.

the cops will arrest the reporting person, and charge them with being involved, and try and keep the reward. its been done plenty of times before.

so if they do this, where is the incentive gone to be a good samaritian. (speelling?_)

Interesting thread popped up on Fullboost...

http://fullboost.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=6563

VERY OBSERVANT OF YOU ! THIS NEEDS TO BE TAKEN FURTHER !!!

The Bona Fides of Sigma in Thailand - Trustworthy or Not ??

Would they be aware of the theft from Bel ?? Bloody Oath !!

Assuming that this car is the STOLEN ONE, the second pic does not have to be photo-enhanced to tell you where that car is/was !!

Next, the date of that person joining that club (November '06) coincides with the date of the theft does it not ??

interesting.. yes

but a coincidence.. i think yes too..

for what reason would this guy sign up to a forum after stealing a car such as that.. surely if you were to take a car you wouldnt go parading it about.. and to come from tailand to steal a car and just happen to know that car, the location and the security system would be a big ask.. especially considering the car wasnt to be there for a long time..

Can you confirm that because the background in one of the shots doesnt look like either Japan or Australia. So if the car was recovered firstly there wouldve been some heavy discussion over it and secondly, it wouldnt be appearing in Thailand.

How do you know the age of those photos?

Is it just me or is there more to this?

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
