Yeah i learnt the hard way guys, no need to say any more about the alarm thing to me - maybe just to warn others who dont have an alarm, its not too late for them to get one.

I was aware that my car could be targetted, i never took it to elizabeth shops, or ttp, always took my girlfriends car.And thought it was ok in my driveway half a metre from the house, in burton - a new estate.

No probs whoring the thread, the SAU friendly chit chat is cool.

Why are skylines stolen generally - is it joy riders? or do they get stolen + rebirthed and sold?

I think it is lowlife scum who generally just want to have a good time.

However, it seems quite a few are stolen and driven around normally quite a lot - a few have been recovered with guys just driving them around as their daily and someone spotting them and taking action.

Needless to say they are one of the most fun cars around, and hence they are targeted.

Hope you get her back in one piece mate! And I hope you find out who stole it for some divine retribution.

both of you shutup. whoring soemone elses thread, for shame.

like u can talk Paul :)

You don't need an alarm, a kill switch and an emobiliser is plenty, I don't care if someone breaks in too much, as long as they don't take the car. Or take out some fuses, thats the cheapest emobliser.

:D

hope the car will turn up soon (minus the stereo etc)

No stereo - just a double-din hole, no amp, no subs, no speakers - the car was still a work in progress...

The waiting game is painful, not knowing where it is, and if i'll get it back...

if you dont get it back i really hope it doesnt turn you off another skyline just make sure the next one is FULLY alarmed 2 alarms even :) just being silly one is enough

for $540 i got my Viper alarm with 3way immobilizer works great if unsavory ppls are out side your house press the panic and they panic and leave

Rego WUO315. 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.

Think I would beat the sh!t outta them too before the cops got to them. I would just say they fell over or something if anyone starts asking questions. Who are the police going to believe, the guy that just stole your car or the inocent victim. LOL

Hope it works out for ya dude. Just makes me so angry when i hear stuff like this.

The red skyline that robbed my soccer club was stolen, I hope these arent the same crew, although the cops caught the ones that did our robbery. seems as though a skyline is an easily stealable getaway car.

youll get it back buddy dont worry.

Thanks for the positive thought!

The red stolen skyline - do you know how it was stolen? ie, broken window, knocked out lock, etc?

Well I'm not sure, all I know is it was clean as hell, was red, had cold multi-spoke rims, and drove real slow as it exited our training field as it had stolen plates, but we suspected that it was their car just with stolen plates... the car got pulled over by the cops, they fled, they went into their flat or something and the cops caught them as they got back home or to their hideabout or whatever. I believe that was the story.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
