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.

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
