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.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
