Hey guys. Just got back from Melbourne.

Here is the roundup. Car is in Ok condition. It has a smashed front windscreen, the drivers lock has been ripped out and my left rear white wheel is missing. It looks like they took it for burnouts and when the tire blew, just chucked the rim somewhere. Also the fuel cap is damaged and they had stuffed newspaper down the tank. I guess they were going to torch it later in the night if it wasn't picked up.

They also smashed up the dash and the engine has an oil leak from the exhaust side. I hope it hasn't blown a head gasket or seal. Not sure what to do with the car. Depends on how much the windscreen is.

a20089 - I own you a case of beer or something. I will sent you a PM.

Thanks for looking guys. The police weren't much help and even after I rang them and told them were it was and could I take it, they told me I had to wait. They then organised their own tow which cost me $265 to get from the corner of Fyshwick to Fyshwick and didn't inform me until I rang them back to find out what was going on.

Cheers,

Brett

Good to hear you got the car back, now comes the fun part of finding what those bastards have left for you and what they have taken

Hey dude,

I got a few parts, PM me what you want.

Even got a front windscreen if you pull it out yourself.

Otherwise i might buy you car.

Hello

I had another look and it is not as bad as it looks. The biggest pain is losing one of the GTS2 mags. I have another set full set of locks already (just need to TIG up the boot hole) and I got quoted $200 for a new windscreen fitted. Just need the instrument cluster and handbrake cover. Do you have extras of these that you want to sell? Also, the steering rack is leaking oil, Don't know if you got a spare rack as well?

Goes to show how strong the RB30 motor is. It must have been revved hard to pop the tyres as they still had a bit of tread on them.

All my steering racks leak... I haven't seen one that hasn't(except new/rebuilt ones).

I don't have any s3 silo instrument clusters, whats wrong with it by the way? I should have hand brake covers... what ever they are...

Instrument cluster is smashed and they also ripped out the needles off for some reason. yeah, there is not such thing as hand brake cover. I mean't the gear stick surround cover. I might have access to one of these as well. i will let you know via PM if I need you to look. Thanks for the help.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
