No worries :happy:

To the original thread poster... may I ask why u didnt get the car towed? Surely u'd have known leaving a car like that on a road means bad news?

leaving an import on the road to springbrook is suicide

what the people take so we can keep an eye on classifieds?

no, wouldn't have done shit

would someone have come to stop them? would they have run away? would anyone care?

i have better deterrant devices avaliable to me now =)

man, if i was watching tv and i heard my car alarm going off outside i'd be going to have a look

car thieves aren't going to hang around a car in a suburb street for long with an alarm blaring

id never ever leave my car on the side of the road unattended for long peroids of time. If she breaks down on the highway, im sleeping in the back for the night.

+1 that and ill call my mates to come for a sleep-over lol..

so can we have a list of things stolen so we can all keep an eye out.?

lol.. thats crazy.. hehe

but dosn't it suck waiting 1/2 hour+ just to change a tire?!

have you actually done this? cause i would have loved to have seen the racq dudes face lol

I take it you are quite capable of doin it yourself?

lol if you get ultra care you can tow what ever you want for nuffing, lol i get them to tow at least 2 cars a month...... and then trye changes are good cos the do it like in 10 mins just gotta wait 1hr for them to get there lol

This didn't happen to be a dark blue R33?

Think I saw it Saturday morning on the way to Murwillumbah.. all smashed up.. and thought "ouch"

yep thats the one mate......wish ida had it insured or sumthin im so dissapointed police arnt doing anything

Well if the -poor guy would give details of what they took we may at least be able to keep an eye out for cheap said items.

DARK BLUE sparco steering wheel, gear knob hand brake, blitz sbc i color, drift exhuast tip,(left the rest of the exhuast on), hks ssqv, air induction pipe / pod , intercooler n piping, few other bits and pieces but they completly destroyed everything they touched......its gonn cost a hell of a lot to fix.....if its even fixable at all

no insurance and u left it on road all night. were u high?

lol again.. hehe.. i dont want to be mean, but, this shit has been happending around the world for along time, and here in oz, i feel very bad for what happened, but, if you have something nice that others want in this day and age you need to keep it safe. why do we think that most houses/business's have huge alarm systems and malls have secruity, if the option is there, some people will do anything and live in the now to steal it.. just like leaving money sitting on the ground.. loox like we learn from our lessions though!!...:)

i get my girlfriend to park behind me so she parks me in every night, as i dont trust ppl, and this is in my own drive way!

poor skyline!!!..damn!

AFIAK there is only a police force on the Goldcoast in name only.. They're extremely under-manned, and absolutely useless for anything other than a few defects now and then. As for solving real crime, forget about it.

So here especially you have to be vigilant with all security.

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
