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.

    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
