BumP!

Jog your memories, have you seen my car or parts of it? (parked down the street, in someone's workshop, garage, anywhere?)

I miss my car.

It's been out there for a few months now so someone must know or has seen something.

I'm prepared to put up a reward of $5000 for anyone who knows details that lead me to getting my car back (intact/mostly/driveable) or leads to some arsehole getting put away.

fark bro still nothing guess its gone interstate sorry hope you get it back tho or at least find em gud luck

Id say its gone to another state mate, sorry to say its ussually the way as its not saleable in sydney any more.

The white GTR in Artarmon is actually a friend, his plates read OSAKA so if thats the white gtr your refering too wrong one.

plenty of empathy from me, my GTR was stolen last Oct. the lowlife that stole the car is doing a 3yr sentence now, but I didn't get te car back. hope you have better luck. the thieving scum seem to have no idea of the impact on the victim; I'm still searching for mine [or parts of it] I search every 'parts for sale' ad, and follow every car that remotely resembles mine. one day!!!

regards

sorry to hear that about your car bud , hope you find the car and whoever did this !.. on another note i know this might sound silly but if you post up this on Boost cruising, they would dob anyone in for the reward money.. hope it works out for you in the end !

im really sorry to hear bout this,

when you think about it, it could be any one with some kind of work shop. just drives it their and starts striping it. or if hes gone interstate he probably works with a few people, managed to get in into a truck and taken, i personally think its still in vic and hes waiting for sh*t to quit down. BASTARD

good luck on finding the car

ill have my eyes and ears open

Far************K dude, Really sorry to hear about this. I hope the reward helps get your car back. I dont know what i would do if my gtr was stolen so much work and money invested. I will keep my eye out for it, i'm in Mitchell ACT, so there are lots or work shops around.

So sorry to hear it man.

EDIT: just had a look at the pics, Farken clean looking car. I really feel for you.

I'm so sorry to here this mate. Sorry for the belated message!

I guess it just shows the importance of an immobiliser and proper alarm system.

http://www.securityinmotion.com.au/page/car_alarms.html - for future reference mate and anyone else considering installing an alarm/immobiliser system I highly, highly recommend it. I'm hoping to get my Skyline in January and as an extremely paranoid person I'm hoping to spend a couple grand on just security. There is a terrific alarm/pager system in that link - Autocate800 GSM Pager/Alarm/Immobiliser, so that when the car is 'intruded' or whatnot, a message is sent to your mobile number immediately so you take the appropriate action. Here is another link http://www.carsafe.com.au/t_09.html . Hope these are of some use!

No, I'm not a sales person. Just looking out for fellow forum members. I can't begin to imagine way your feeling at the moment Sav. Hang in there mate. All the best.

Hope you find it really soon. Keep looking dont give up.

Im looking at some sort of tracking device for the skyline, i believe thats the best solution.

I had a pager alarm system and immoboliser on my integra type r and it still got stolen.

It was gone pretty fast ;). Just happy i had insurance to recover most of the costs.

What!

Are you serious?

Care to post up who produced and installed the pager alarm and immobiliser? What system to do you use now following the theft?

I had a Python 881xp alarm system, and it was installed by my best mate who is a auto electrician.

After i got money from the insurance i just bought a brand new corolla, tried getting over the whole car scene.

Just a reliable daily, good on petrol and very cheap in insurance still got it, over 1 year old now.

Few months ago i decided i buy a weekend car and got the 32 GTR. Just a cheap mongoose alarm

system in it atm. It hardly gets driven maybe once a fornight, parked in a very safe garage.

Considering a tracking alarm system where you pay a monthly fee and theyll tell you the location

of your car, and if or when it gets stolen.

That's sad to hear mate. (about getting over the scene)

f**king crooks don't realise what an impact it can have on the person. Or maybe they do and they are all assholes.

A tracking system would be mint. Depends about the monthly fee though? Any idea?

There is a group buy for a gsm tracker in the group buy section... $295 bargain

btw, sorry to hear about your loss op..

I can't believe you removed your security system as it conflicted with your Turbo timer.. the mind boggles.

yea cant believe you did that.. Who needs a turbo timer anyways.

But none-the-less i really hope you find your car man!!

Will deff keep an eye out.

You know theres cars stolen from that carpark nearly everyday. Deff not a place to park your car..

Same with mac uni carpark..

still no news? the car has to be long gone....... its parts would probably be living hapily in other cars now or it is a numbers job and the car is either back on the street with a shared identity with new paint to suit or its a dedicated race car that has been stripped anyway beyond recognition.....

this has to be the worst thing appart from loosing a family member or a close pet because after all i guess i do treat my car as a family member (wow im so sad lol)

thats why the first thing i did was insure it (p plater mind you so its a big decision to insure a gts-t) and put an immobiliser/alarm system with a built in turbo timer (and i just sold the old TT aswell)

I do recomend a good immobiliser at minimum for any import car

    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
