Guys,

My baby was taken from me at 7am this morning, from my driveway in Burton, i heard it start and by the time i got to it, it was gone. They smashed the whole front drivers window, so it'll be missing.

Rego xxxxx[edit]. Please keep a look out, and phone police 131444 or 000 if you see it. I'd pay a big reward if someone caught the guy, and let me get to him before the cops.

I went to see Salisbury police face-to-face, they told me there was a breakin in Paralowie about 1.5 hrs earlier. So chances are the prick's done a few breakins before coming to my car, and driving it home (probably via cash converters), hopefully it shows up being dumped in a street somewhere.

I dont know if its just me, but Skylines seem to attract the wankers. I never feel safe leaving it anywhere, always having my valve caps stolen. If i dont get this one back, i dont think ill buy another skyline, attract too much bad attention!

The irony is that i was made to take a week of holidays this week, i didnt want to, but thought i could spend the time working on my car and getting a few things finished off. If i had of gone to work, i would have left about 15minutes before it got stolen.

Thanks for keeping ur eyes out guys.

what sort of alarm did you have?

from what i can gather from chris rodgers and george from adelaide pro sound, he was still getting quotes on his alarm =(

hope insurance covers it, most times they state that it HAS to have an alarm or theft isnt coverd =(

gl in finding it trav!! hope it turns up soon and un-injured for you!!!

Spewing dude, not good to hear!

I always say if my car goes missing i NEVER want it back, It's never the same after some c#%t has thrashed the shite out of it! Id rather start from scratch again! Hmmmm might make up a letter and put it in the glove box in the Att: whoever steals this car!! LOL

cant believe you (some) skyline drivers still don't have alarms if mine didn't come alarmed that was the first thing going on

and even though it was alarmed ive now got a better alarm Co- Ebay

so sorry to hear your misfortune there Trav and as Fishpaste pointed out most insurers sate if not properly alarm car isn't covered for theft

^^ lol so true Darren

(this is going to sound harsh - but ...) yep I agree with Steve - it is irresponsible people who don't put alarms in their Skylines that cause the rest of us to pay such high insurance premiums. How you could leave an un-alarmed R33 ANYWHERE, let alone in your driveway overnight without an alarm is totally beyond me. If you can't afford an alarm, don't buy such an attractive car. Even if you were looking at alarms, maybe you should have done that before you bought the car .... and then put a club lock, plus a flashing red led in your dash (2 minute job), plus park another car behind yours at night .... I hope you get it back man, and I hope everyone learns your lesson.

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
