I have a couple more pics of it from the side and back too.

I sol dit to michael down the caost, i was its first Australian owner, michael was its second.

It was a awsome car i missed it so much i bought another r33 but its not as good to drive as this one was.

From what u have been reading it doesnt seem like many or the r33 stolen are turning up?

Keep us pdated with how things go ok!

i'm in the southside area too, I'll keep a look out for it. However by now it could be anywhere.

Skylines are always an easy target for car thieves, there are lots of them out there so if they come across one with a car alarm and immobiliser it won't be too long until they come across one that doesn't. I guess you can never be too safe but yeah. Good luck with the insurance, I hope you get renumerated quickly and properly. Especially this close to christmas.

yeah, i will let everyone know as soon as i find anything out. it was a good car actually, i really liked it :) and i've never been a big skyline fan till after i drove that one.

unfortunately, i got a bad feeling that it will end up in a chop shop somewhere :P its depressing just thinking about it. i'm watching all the classifieds as well to see if any parts turn up somewhere.

this was brought to my attention on Boostlosing lately.

"what the hell is it with QLD and stolen skylines!!!!????

f**k man i hope you get it back, this shit happens far too often

edit, there is a thread on skylineaustralia.com on how to bypass your alarm system and people wonder why they get stolen?. you cant mention street racing or company names on the threads but you can tell someone how to steal your pride and joy wtf."

thats a little worrying to me :( does anyone know about this. i mean i know they speak some shit on there but it doesnt hurt to check.

Aside from an alarm you need a good old fashioned Gypsy curse installed as well. I warned whoever stole my last car it was cursed, they were too late and it got them!!!

The current installed curse is a lot worse, it has the soul of 2 previous cars and it's new found personality as well *beware*

lol nice. i'll remember that next time. all i need is a gypsy to curse it though. do they sell those? or are there like ikea versions where you do it yourself and they dont quite work out right? you know what i mean.

from what i have seen a majority of them had some form of security device installed. the problem is they are getting around them. one guy had an immobiliser, disconnected the battery, took starter motor fuse out and a club lock and they still stole it from off his front lawn. seriously, thats nuts!

if this was the real thing, they can investigate as much as they want....but you will get the money at the end, what compnay is this ..i am with "JUST Cars"...

also i heard that having a KILL switch somewhere (hiden) will be more effective than most imobalizers.....

fitted to the fuel pump...they might steal it...but still need to drive it off....

my mates R33 has saterlite tracking alarm....dont know if this is the ultimate thing ($11 month i think)...but in melbourne...dont know about the service in brisbane ??

anyway hope you get it back !!!...or just hassle up the insurance company cos that wht theye for...and get a better ride.....

:laugh:

my number is 0439 759 284 for anyone that knows anything. call me anytime and leave a msg if i dont answer.

my concern with the insurance is that they think i did it to claim back on them. coz i've only had the car for 2 weeks, it looks really suss. i havent even been able to hand in the transfer of rego papers yet.

no word on anything yet......

yeah it was still white. the photo before is basically it just without the newer wheels. also, it does have a 6" but it's actually very quiet so you prob wont hear it coming.

the front bar is a bomex i think, if your interested. they are nice.

LoL I went through similar shit, my car was stolen a day before my policy was due to be renewed, but hey the assessor still insinuated it was me and kept asking how the hell it got stolen, even after they had made an arrest. Assessor scum fat slag!@!!@!

yeah, about my sentiments. i havent met the assessor yet though. if i dont like him, i'll just have do it my own way i guess :P always works ;)

its strange. my gtir wasnt insured at all for the entire 8 mths i had it, nothing ever happened. i get a skyline for 2 weeks and it gets stolen? wtf? are these theives starting a skyline car yard or something?

Major drag dude, sorry to hear bout it :P

If its the same people i read about, last week in the paper there was an artical about thieves down gold coast way stealling skylines and doing hit and runs on all different businesses then most of the times torchin the cars at the end i think, i'll see if i can find the artical

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
