Hey guys miss my skyline. A lot of love went into this car. Put those new cheep trackers in your cars and get some crooks and not have your car go forever.

Last time ai rx7 series 6 went missing from there it turned up the next day in the same car park but different level.. might be of some assistance to you :blink:

Thanks been looking at all the levels at least once a day.

Does anybody know what a guy who stole a car would be doing? I mean would they be driving around or stipping it down? Do they usually take it to someone (wreckers) to be dismantaled in the shortest time?

i used to go to unsw, i always just park it on the streets, and always thought the area was pretty safe compared to usyd...

i remember back a few mths ago there was another r33gtst stolen from i think the unsw biomed carpark?

hope you'll find the car soon mate, will definitely keep an eye out for it, i guess it's not that hard to recognise you car...

mate, i know how u must feel :D

i went thru this 2x myself with my rx7.. 1st time.. yes it was found on a different level with minimal damage

it got done once again not too long ago... i drove it back FIRST time since the 1st incident (1st time in 6months?) and it was done agian. theres no way in the world id ever drive a nice car back to unsw

the thieves there drive up and down the carparks... around the streets looking for nice cars to take

this time.. they even put a crowbar on to my hks vmount intercooler... just smashed up a 2700 dollar IC out of spite.

i hope u do find her..

White r32 Gtr with no front bar, 33 gtr rims look like they've been whacked on and a white wing...

Under a car cover...

Plates are ba somthing or rather...Black and white premiums...

Hey everybody at UNSW that has had their (or a friend i can contact) car stolen. I'm going to admin at uni to ask for a explanation on why the uni security is so poor. We are paying secure car park rates with none of the security. Please PM me with your details..

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

Agreed, i can't believe you did that either... if I were you I would remove the TURBO TIMER, NOT the security system!

Turbo timer is over-rated for street use, all is required is just a little bit sensible driving 1-2 minutes on approaching your final destination

then you do not need a turbo timer at all - I didn't - over 4 years of tuned 230rwkw R33 gtst ownership...

Yes i know, mistakes are made.

I was inefficient at getting the new alarm installed. The skyline wasn't my main focus anymore study was.

dont bother

when my fd was stolen.. i demanded them check the cameras at the exits.. those cameras arent there to check cars but for help points and are ONLY ever activated when some1 presses the button.

then i spoke to head of security at E-Spot and questioned him why the security was so f**ked and even demanded that they install cctv cameras in all the carparks. i was told it is financially unviable as u would need 2-3 cameras on each level and even just the car park behind the libray would need more than 20 cameras. then u need them all to record and have ppl monitor it. the uni is not prepared to spend the money on this. i myself am a unsw staff member (was a studnet there b4 too) and pay for a staff permit.. it is not secure parking that we are getting. its a service that unsw does not take any responsibilities for. i asked to speak to somebody higher up, was told to write a letter to head of Facilities or the Chancellor of the uni and he said that nothing will probably be done anyway even after that...

unsw now is only wanting to give out parking tickets, the security there do not give a flying f**k if ur car gets stolen.. they just want money from parking tickets. i now drive my dad's car to work and one day had to work til 5:30, i purchased a ticket $6 or so to park til 5:11. i rocked up at 5:35 to see the security guy writing out a $79 fine for overparking.

moral of the story.. unsw doesnt care if u get ur car stolen. maybe its the security there who walks up and down checking out where nice cars are and calling in their "mates" to steal the cars. i dont know but hell.. if u drive an import.. and go to unsw... catch a bus and train instead

oh.. and if u still want to do something, u can contact me on 0413 525 818 but im telling u, ive tried doing wat u want to do and i know they dont care

      7 Speed Auto transmission fluid change (Skyline, Q50, Q60, Fuga, Q70, A62 Titan and probably heaps of others including Navara...)

      By Duncan · Posted

      I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your 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)
