Hey Guys,

Like the thread says my car was stolen from Bruce CIT last wednesday. Its a very dark blue / black R31 Series 3 four door. Its registered NSW ARQ90N, its got gold 17"Drifteks, R32 front brakes and a big exhaust system. Some recent pics:

Please keep an eye out for it or any R31 parts on the cheap in the canberra area, as they will most likely part it out. My contact details are 0404303954 or 44713486.

Thanks all

Well we found the last R31 stolen, so a good chance this one will be found ( probably minus the nice looking wheels)

Seems to be alot of them being taken lately. Shame about the wheels aye? yeah the new tyres too. A Jihad on them!

that place is bollocksed for damage / stolen cars it happens non stop there, you would think that they would hire a plastic cop by now. Any ways you all know my feelings on the matter of theft of cars.... Hand chop go and work you junkie freaks then you can buy what you want instead of stealing it.

Jesus, I'm really sorry to hear that your car got stolen. I didn't post this on the threads but about 9 months ago I had some car troubles and I bought an R31 to get me around (it was a car that the R31 club would be fairly familiar with) and some lil' bastards decided that the weekend after the Queen's B'day weekend it would be a good idea to prize my boot open and fill it will fuel and fireworks... whole car... ruined.

I wish you the best of luck in recovering your baby.

man thats shit news. good luck with finding it, one of my old school friends had his r31 stolen after he put in a sound system. he found it a week later minus the stereo, cit car parks are usually a gold mind for wankers like that.

Hey guys car turned up in Hume, intact but with a blown diff. Its very dirty, but the wheels and stereo are intact and everything else seems to be there. Thanks for keeping a look out. At least they had the decency not to burn it out, which is really lucky. No skyline that i own will ever go back to that carpark, thats for sure!

BTW, shit to hear that Adrians car got wrecked, another one to add to the seemingly kilometre long list of stolen/wrecked R31s...

I was pretty annoyed when I found out what happened to mine. Luckily most of its parts are still within the club.

Glad to hear you got the car back. Its so slack when people burn cars since most of them aren't worth having insurance on so you lose a whole heap of money.

Yeah i hear ya Adrian, i had no chance of affording comprehensive insurance so i needed that car back. Lucky the junkies left the window down when they dumped it so the smell wafted out! Too bad they couldnt turn off the lights so the battery wouldnt drain...

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • 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/
