***************r33 Stolen *************


Recommended Posts

Has anyone else noticed that this is the second car within the last few weeks to have been stolen AFTER the person has broken into the house while people were there and stolen the keys and then the car?? I thought it was bad enough they came down our driveway at 7am on a Saturday let alone come into the house!!

yeh :S

Ive taken to taking my keys everywhere with me, even if my family are home and ive left the car there, still take my keys with me. Have also started parking the rest of the cars BEHIND mine, since i live in this same suburb. Pain in the ass at 4:30 every morning to move all the cars to let me out, but hell of alot safer.

I've seen this car around, looks hot.

Its distinct so will keep an eye out.

Can't believe how many R33's are stolen these days. Makes me scared. Although mine secretly will take a little more effort to get going.

But still, they must be fair easy to break into and hot wire! Although having said that I've had all my ignition wiring out when I was screwing around with fuel pumps, and although its all black, it is easy to work out which wire is doing what. And with imobilisers under there too, its even easier to pin point the ignition wiring.

HI ALL

For anyone who has had their vehicle stolen recently and not yet recovered, please email me a clear photo (preferably side shot and or 3/4 front shot) with rego number, contact details and where & when it was stolen from.

We have agents conducting static surveillance on the road everyday throughout Adelaide so I can pass pics and regos onto them.

They'll either make contact with me or you immediately upon sighting. No guarantees but what have you got to lose.

There's probably enough info on this thread but it may be easier to get pics and details briefly on an email that I can easily forward onto the other agents.

sorry to hear.

pretty gay how people are breaking into homes now, while people are home and people not noticing, they must be like ghosts and the fact they found the room with the keys. pretty daring.

Good luck in finding it.

no shit still no word yet if its been this long i think the pricks that stole it are stripping it maybe on its way to interstate hope your brother has some luck man and gets it one peace

Yeah, I can confirm I've seen it in Melbourne.

Not in Springvale though - more so in Noble Park... that back bar and side skirts... I swear I've seen it.

If I were you, I would contact the Victorian Police and give them your VIN number... they'll put it on their register... so if they randomly pull people over with a similiar description, they can do a check... don't worry, in Springvale/Noble Park area - cops pull Skylines over all the time, You should be able to find it quick... good luck...

It was driving pass Springvale road towards the lights leading to Noble Park station... the driver was an Asian guy in his late 20's - looked like a street-wise kinda dude... I remember, as he pulled up to me and wanted to drag me - the Mrs. and I joked about how he would have no chance so I remember quite clearly... hope your brother gets his car back mate... ring the cops asap!!

Update. I am hoping that it is just the case of someone with the same kit as someone spotted it hear in adelaide on the weekend.???? so am unsure of its whereabouts. Still would be great for eyes to keep a look out and if seen call the police and follow it to where ever they are hiding it. :domokun:

    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
