Posting on behalf of a mate of mine cause he doesnt have an SAU account.

Last night down south, Mate had the rims knocked off his S15 IN HIS DRIVEWAY. He heard the noise (of the people dropping the car on the ground) at 5AM and ran out, however they managed to get away with 3 of the wheels, there is however one wheel still on the car. The front bar is totalled, Sideskirts are totalled. Some of you may have seen this S15 out on cruises with me, Yellow coloured with Trial Style Kit and 19" 5 spoke mags.

Spotted a Blue VN Commodore leaving the scene with big chrome wheels and mirror styled tail lights, obviously were not happy to say the very least.

After a set of stocky rims that will suit an S15 Stud pattern 5x114.3 to get it in his shed tonight, at the moment the cars on the ground and were worried that they will come back for the last rim tonight.

So if anyone has a set of stocky's we could borrow to get his car to a safe spot to start fixing it up as it is quite damaged and also, so they dont come back for the stereo and everything else would be greatly appreciated

Gimme a buzz on 0400 267 299

Im in Rose Park and my mate is down south, so weve pretty much got adelaide covered.

Dude sorry to hear about the dramas, Maybe in a couple of weeks try and sell the last rim, and you never know some retard might come forward and buy the one wheel to match the 3 they either stole or bought, Just remember to ask questions like: What sorta car is it going on? Are you after this (1) wheel to have as a spare in the boot or what? Just stuff like that to get the feel of the person trying to buy!

Could be worth a shot, you never know.......

Good Luck!

i doubt they would have come back in the end anyway...

if they did theyd have to be pretty dumb, considering you and half your mates would be waiting in the bushes for em =P

good luck finding them although i dont think your gonna have much luck, get onto calias turbo or NS and have a look around, also try ebay and local pawn broker / wrecker.

Definitely lock nuts are easy as to remove..

All the more reason to buy an alarm with a knock sensor.

I've set mine fairly sensitive; a cat jumping on the car, a flick of the door handle or a light fist in to the window is enough to set it off.

Also lets me know with the number of disarm beeps what sensor has been triggered while I've been away.

    • First time visitor and currently getting ready to start work on my HK Premier.  Its all stock, 186 with 3 on the tree.  The only mod i have right now is extractors.  I am hoping to get some guidance on slightly modifying the engine to bring a little more power. Just going for a nice, comfortable cruiser.  The car is very straight, however i have been out of the country for 20 years and its been gathering dust at a family farm.  Will be doing quite a bit of body work to cut out some small rust areas (frnt quarter panels and a few other small bits) and fix up the paint.  Will be redoing the interior (its currently black and the seats are in real need of recovering and respringing the driver side (its front bench seat).  The dash needs a little TLC, but no real damage.  As my heater has degraded I am considering fitting something after-market that will be both heater/AC (recommendations here are always welcome). Wanting something discrete that will allow me to use the same controls and not be obvious once inside the car.   For the engine, i have been told i could consider upgrading my cam (imagine i would need a new head as well) and putting a new carby (currently the original stromberg).  However not sure what is going to be the best route.  Would certainly welcome any comments/suggestions.  As  a final step I am looking at changing the wheels. Current hubcaps are in dire need of refurbishment or replacement (imagine its a bit like hens teeth).  Thinking of some clean/classic looking mags (7-inch should be more than enough - not going for a large change in look).  Welcome any comments/advice and of course any questions. 
    • I got the ARC M079 due to the space constraint.  Been running mint for the last 3 years.  Plazmaman also seems like a really solid choice but not used myself.    Hunt around for a better price but this is what I have - https://www.rhdjapan.com/arc-brazing-intercooler-smic-m079-bnr32.html
    • Wanted to follow up on this. Did you end up getting the M073? Still deciding on what to get between nismo m073-79 and plazaman.  
    • I was just watching these boys up in QLD AWD'ing their S13 too.  
    • Por que no los dos? At least my euro brawler is reliable - unlike the JDMs I've had. Sheraaz you look familiar, did you ever come to an SAU VIC meet aaaaaages ago?
