hi,

it's a sick feeling in the guts when you come back to where you parked and see an empty space. I had my GTR stolen last october and remember it well. the police caught the guy that stole mine but the car has never been found; hope you have better luck and the car is returned in reasonable nick.

with so many Skylines being stolen perhaps it's time to have a page dedicated [on this forum] to listing all cars stolen belonging to SAU members'. a simple format including; car description/distinguishing marks/features, where/when stolen etc, may help get some of the car thieving lowlife off the streets and have the cars returned to the rightful owners'. being members of the Skyline community we naturally notice new cars [or even extra cheap Skyline parts]in our areas and may even be able to recognise suspicious 'ownership' in certain cases. this way we could cast a pretty wide net and anyone who sees or hears about a 'questionable' car could quickly check out the "stolen list". I reckon it is time we became proactive as club members' and send a message to any car thief who targets a Skyline that he/she is taking a bigger risk than usual, of being caught.

just an idea, let's kick it around and see if is do-able!!.

regards

Sorry to hear bro!

I've been up here for nearly a year now and this is the 2nd case of a stolen car i have heard of up here. Must of been living in a dream world when i thought this town is a bit more sedate.

I'l most probably be out tonight and over the weekend, have stored your number on my phone and will keep my eyes and ears peeled... I hope for your sake the thief is stupid enough to be out!

Tried posting this on qldstreetscene.com ??

they broke into my room and took my keys from beside my bed, still havnt seen the car yet, they pushed the car out of my yard left the gates open and started it and drove off also lost my wallet and keys.

99% it would be:

1. Some people that know you really well (friends and/or foes)

2. Someone who bought parts from you recently and knew you had a GTR

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
