is saw this just now. Yes was a 33 with a Gtr badge, but i counted a few other skylines, a black/Grey 33, possibly another one? One car in the background look partially stripped.

Was at broadview.

Hope a few people will now get their pride and joys back..

hope the f**kers dont get a light sentance either!

but thats good news some stolen cars have been found :yes:

itll be hard for the courts to slap someone on the wrist for 8 stolen vehicles.

if they do however, then it really does show how corrupt the system really is.

Just looking at the vid report again.. these are cars i could make out

series 1 r33 grey metallic (with silver/blue strut brace)

silver/gold r33 gtr? (might just be a gts-t with 400r kit and gtr spoiler + badge)

vp commodore (xbb-45?)

commodore ute with chromies in the tray

Damn, that house is literally under 3km from my place - far too close to home.

Let's hope they make examples out of these people.

But no doubt they have caught a very small fraction of the people actually involved.

I can't believe the cars were in such unstripped condition - why steal all those cars and just hang on to them? Maybe waiting for the heat on them to go down before rebirthing them interstate perhaps?

Thanks heaps for the video Howie - much appreciated!! I very much enjoyed the Asimo movie too - we were keen as to go see him/it, but my son came along on 1 Nov, which made it a bit difficult.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
