Man I'm really sorry to hear that... It is a really pretty car my friend. There is nothing I can say except I really do hope you can get her back one way or another. Don't give up the hope mate. Unfortunate things happen, but that means fortunate things do happen too rite? U never know =)

Brighton!! What are these f*ckers doing in Brighton!! I live in the bayside area, and yes, it's unusual to see skylines around, let alone GTR's, but tow trucked from new st!??!! this makes me uneasy... i don't really worry about my car in my area...

mate, so sorry to hear ;) your number is in my phone and i'll definitely be keeping a look out. god damn this makes me angry :thumbsup:

if you're staying at a friends place, it seems strange that they just "happened" onto your car, and know that it would need a tow truck, and not be a quick boost job. Seems like they had some sort of info on the car...

What have the popo had to say about all this? You might get the Brighton police actually care about it as i guess they don't get too many stolen car reports

Man i drove past it going to work the other week, thought it was one hot car......can't believe it though, from brighton man. I used to stick it up my friends that brighton was the best place to drive imports without trouble and without getting em stolen...

hey guys,

thanks...the brighton police were good about it, they dont do many stolen car reports, but were nice enough. I dont think this car is coming back, but i have some ideas on who might of done it, so i will be passing that info to the police.

Car had alarm and imobilser, not sure of the brand but it looked good, and the siren was really loud

just have to wait for the insurance now

Fark man, another one.

Maybe its time to try to park with the front facing some sort of obstruction, like a wall or pillar, then turn the steering full lock.

Alarm/ immobilizer and quick release steering wheel hub would be good too.

that's what i was thinking mate. For it to be stolen, in that area, whilst you were staying with a mate... and going to the lengths of a flat bed truck.... it seemed like there was a lot more to it than just a random find.

good luck!

This makes me very very sad ;)

While i spent a shitload on my alarm (it is STILL the single most expensive item in the car) It scares the shit out of me to think that my car could one day get stolen :)

I hope you find some info on this and find those buggers, we have had thefts left right and centre up in NSW... but most of those were just complied, uninsured stock boxes... not something like this :(

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      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.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      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

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      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).
