The rego number is 51CAS and is lowered on VY 17's.

If anyone spots it can they please let me know on here, via PM or contact Miss Niz.

Thank you.

Thanks for posting up for us Paul.

Most of you qld members know my boyfriend's car, so if anyone knows anything, please let us know ASAP.

All i can say is i hope these rotten pricks rot in hell. How anyone can do this kinda thing, especially right before christmas is low, very low.

We got to Hyperdome around 11.45am and parked the car on level 1 near bi-lo escalators. Went back at 2.10pm to find the car was gone. So it was stolen anywhere around then. We're still looking into the camera footage to see if we can find the bastards.

thats unreal,

i fail to believe that it could have occured,

surely there were ppl around doing christmas shopping etc

..its shocking

well all the best, hope it shows up, ill be keeping my eyes open

this is shitty news Nadeem. cant believe this was stolen but your last one wasnt. hope it turns up. you got surance?

Yeah it's not pleasant, especially right before christmas. And not to mention that my daily driver (the bluey) blew the head gasket last week too, so i've got that off the road for another week or two at least.

Nadeem has got insurance, but the market value of a VL calais is absolute bullshit, and the payout figure won't even be enough to cover the stereo equipment and my $450 oakley sunnies which i left in the glovebox (i never ever leave them in the car, but of course on this day it was a first for me). Especially given how tidy this one was.

Thanks guys! I guess we're just hoping someone has seen it or knows about it, and i guess the more people who know, the more chances we have.

I hope these bastards have a really rotten christmas, just like they've destroyed ours... Pricks!

so sorry ot hear! vl's: great car for getting around.... best holden ever made! sadly very easy to steal! the first thing i did with mine was solex locks

i hope you see it again ASAP in good condition and also find out who the bastards were..... get ur own back.

GOOD LUCK!

Just had a call from the police. Car has been found burnt out in Marsden. Just went to see the wreck. Totally rooted. F$@%ing @ssholes.

Nadeem and i thank you for your support guys.

If anyone does have any information, please pm me if you wish to keep it on the low.

    • sold listed as a Tomei LSD 1.5 Way For 1998+ Nissan Skyline ER34 25GT RB25DE w/Open R200 https://www.ebay.com/itm/174006114594?campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms=&campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=71883f2ccc571356e0a757bc7adfdde2&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms= it went in like butter all gears, alignment, back lash etc, rotation and clearances correct, and if rolling all rotates smooth and free when coasting down road , clutch in or out over 10 mph smooth... its the binding, clunking and jerking from a stop that is most concerning, also seems like its going to tear the tires off in 10 miles of normal road driving. 
    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
