Some distinctive features:

- The wheels are 18" Black Racing Pro-N1 in bronze

- APEXi and Blitz stickers on the small window on the rear door

- Aftermarket exhaust

I'll post up further details (actual model) of the Ford ute that was involved in th

There was cameras but there on the exit and entrance of the carpack i saw the car tailgating another and being tailgated by another stolen ford ute. it happened on the 4th of january at 2pm day light

the car had central locking and 3d party +theft.

I am offering a $5000 reward for the successful RECOVERY of the vehicle to the first person who recovers it and calls the police when they spot the car. Or to the person who gives the police relevant information that leads to recovering the car.

The reward will be given to you once the car is in police hands.

If you do call the police and help make sure to notify them of your name in order for me to know who to give the reward to.

Thanks guys as you can see I just want my car back!

habourside carpark is a know hot spot for car theft. same story, they target cars without alarms. and sadly if you can't afford a decent alarm mostly you can't afford (or get) insurance either. bad news :P

they do the same thing. find nice car without alarm, come in with a stolen car. steal car, tailgate on the way out. the bloody carpark operators don't care. they only have camers to get numberplates of people who try and get out without paying. they don't actually care about security.

fact is any alarm can be messed with the best option is, use Any deterent including clublock, etc to deter any theft.

Dam i used to park my car in starcity carpark no worries but with the recent spate of thefts i dont risk it. Also i wouldnt leave my car in any multi story car park.

Like BB said, Harbourside dont care at all about anything bar the $22 fee people try to evade, that goes for most parking centres!

so hw to get decent alarm?? some peeps have alarms but still get stolen

will this car had no alarm at all. so any alarm would be a step above that. but basically forget an alarm for protecting your car. just buy something with 3pt immobiliser, back-up battery siren, and black wiring and have it installed somewhere reputable.

The real thing protecting your car is INSURANCE. I cannot stress that enough. no alarm will help you when faced with someone just using a tow truck to tow your car away. but comprehensive insurance will.

BB: I'm always security conscious but with the new prepay systems being used we're miles away from the exit. I personally regularly patrol the carparks i work at but still have had cars stolen on my shift. With up to 6 levels of parking and over 1000 cars its hard.

I chased down a stolen car the other month at the Royal North Shore hospital multi level carpark, and got the plates of the stolen car and the car the thieves came in and reported to police. But in all honesty surely they changed the plates or used another stolen car to come in with?

I don't park in carparks especially around market city and darling harbour, famous for car thieves and gives them a quiet sheltered place to steal ur car. Much safer parked on a busy street outside a bright convenience store.

lol, I used to Kryptonite lock a wheel around the suspension on my GTR and set the PFC rev limit to minimum (1200 I think) and hide the hand contoller AND disconnect the ignitor and crank angle sensor. Paranoid much?

i wish i knew how to do all of that....

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
