it was stolen! stupid f*ks tried to run with a space saver on the rear but they caught them! they will be in another stolen car next week with our pathetic justice system! the car actually looks familar

white 32 gtr nismo rear lip wing, work or piaa rims

Wouldn't surprise me tho if it was stolen with the amount of line thefts recently :(

There were two other thefts last night, guys torched the car and jumped into icey cold wetlands hahaha.

losers, they got busted.

This r32 wasn't stolen, just tried to outrun cops for reasons they didn't say.

Weird, I know a guy with white r32 and screamer pipe who is also 18 and has successfully outrun cops before out north?? Maybe he tried again down south... car looked very similar.

Just watched ch.10 news, will watch ch.7 again at 6.00 and see if they say anything different.

ooops, yeah it was stolen :(

ne1 know whos it was? it 'looked' clean and shiney. Before losing its rubber and slamming into a wall...

Seriously though, how many car thefts have occured in the last few weeks.... and high speed chases.

Getting a bit outa hand..... mostly in northern suburbs....

just watched chanel 9 news n yes the car was stolen.the ignition barrel was fkd.

hopefuly no 1 from here.... looked like a nice 32 too

hope the theif gets fkd up lol

Form the looks of it the ign barrel was still intact. They had a separate key barrel which had been wired in up under the dash from what i saw....?

ohh kk...i was helpin mum cook in looked up n saw wires so i assumed they hot wired it or sumfing

Saw it also,

Whatever they were thinking of outrunning cops with that rim i have no idea. Last time a skyline went quick on one of those ended in a death interstate didn't it? Think it was Silver R33 or something?

Guess he won't be doing that anytime soon....

man what a joke outrun the cops on spacesavers......

off track but a mate had a airstrip day a few years ago chucked two space savers on the back of a 11sec 180 lol very intersting as you would imagine....

agreed with shy s6

the justice system should make an example of these retards and really make life hard for them. cos im sure they know they will barely get a penalty and be out stealing more cars soon

all these thefts... i cant believe it...

this has seriously got me dusting off the old club lock out the shed...

So if these pricks come armed with their gadgets to get the car started, theyd wanns be carrying a decent hack saw.

Hmm.. starting to think i should move my car off the front lawn, space saver on the front may attract some thieves looking for a good time. havta bring a spare battery with them tho as i take mine out, unless they want to push it uphill off the lawn, although R32's arnt that heavy to push. a month and i'll have new tyres anyways so wont be on there for much longer :P

Must've been an awful ride with the space saver on there..... Pull mine out the front and it feels so weird with it on there, may feel differant with it on the back tho, owner may havta look at his suspention as i hear its bad to drive for long periods of time with one on....

    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
    • OK, so regardless of whether you did Step 1 - Spill Step 2 - Trans pan removal Step 3 - TCM removal we are on to the clean and refill. First, have a good look at the oil pan. While you might see dirty oil and some carbony build up (I did), what you don't want to see is any metal particles on the magnets, or sparkles in the oil (thankfully not). Give it all a good clean, particularly the magnets, and put the new gasket on if you have one (or, just cross your fingers) Replacement of the Valve body (if you removed it) is the "reverse of assembly". Thread the electrical socket back up through the trans case, hold the valve body up and put in the bolts you removed, with the correct lengths in the correct locations Torque for the bolts in 8Nm only so I hope you have that torque wrench handy (it feels really loose). Plug the output speed sensor back in and clip the wiring into the 2 clips, replace the spring clip on the TCM socket and plug it back into the car loom. For the pan, the workshop manual states the following order: Again, the torque is 8Nm only.
