Guys please be on a lookout for my friends car, a dark grey GTS-T.

Number Plates: HUM-61E

The car was taken from Lindfield station sometime between 7am and 5pm today (2/6/03).

The car is as I said Dark Grey, Apexi N1 exhaust, has a Blitz BOV, and the wheels are 16" "Stern" brand wheels which are 5 spoke with studs on the outside.

Yeh guys my friend lives in Lindfield. He's parked on the street heaps of times not a problem. In fact has parked at station heaps of times not a problem.

But I guess you don't know until it actually gets stolen.

Not sure which side it was parked ... I'm guessing where everyone parks all day to go to work via train?

Overnight parking is safer than all-day parking at a train station on a weekday. 99% of the people parked at a train station will not be back until well after 3pm. So the thief gets in nice and early - say, half hour after the car is parked (that way the owner is almost certainly on a train into the city). He then has 6 hours or more to work on any security device the car has. Not that he needs that much time. My solution is to not take public transport anymore. I ride a motorcycle to work.

If your car is parked somewhere overnight or on a weekend, the owner's arrival is much less predictable, therefore your car is generally safer (unless the thief has been tracking your movements and knows where you'll be at specific times).

Fark...it really sucks to hear that. Hope it shows up.

Im still looking for my R32. Well, not really, insurance company paid me. But still, no sign of it for almost 10 months now. Like it completely disappeared off the face of the earth. Would love to see it again...

Ill keep an eye out as well.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
