Hey guys, a friend just phoned me up to tell me that a mate's R33 was stolen from the 6th level of Hornsby Westfield carpark this afternoon. It's a fresh import and unfortunately not insured. It's a 1996 series 2 black R33 with black and white rego plates: BCZ 52M. Can people please keep a lookout and chase it down or report it if they spot these scumbags.

Cheers Steve.

Anyone driving without insurance is a dolt.

Like said before "I just got the car" is no excuse. What happens if you run into the back of a Ferrari on the way home from the seller?

You should have insurance from the day you pick up the car.

that sux, i've parked there a few times too.

couldn't agree more with liz tho re: insurance. when i got my r33 insurance was sorted b4 i drove it home, put it in a lock up garage w/padlock and the alarm/immobiliser was installed the next day.

will keep a look out :thumbsup:

I know you know this but using the excuse "i just got the car" as a reason why it isn't insured is a joke. Insurance is free until you get the bill so why anyone would risk it is a joke.

I agree. it should be your number one priority to get that cover note.

anyway.. gl finding it! I've had uninsured cars before (silvia) and was lucky enough to come out ontop.. but i won't be risking it again... EVER

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
