finally, they're doing something about it...

just saw it on the news, 400 police this morning set out to make arrests, south west of sydney... for rebirthing cars. Wonder how many of these are skylines.. they mentioned that some of the cars were car jacked..

Was my S14 200sx - sad to see it go, but the insurance paid for a much nicer nissan! Heard from QLD police 18months later - it had turned up on the Gold Coast - must have been a hell of a holiday for the old girl!

Was 100% as it left me, and on to it's second owner - but they got the bloke who originally sold it- haven't caught the ones that stole it (yet).

Now have tracking alarms on both cars - won't happen again. The factory immobiliser obviously didn't give them any trouble....

Sure DLuded, but did you ever wonder, when the cops are after crims, who has time to defect cars? I hope RTA inspectors can help out, coz we can't afford to have commonwhores all over the country loosing at the traffic lights.

it really doesnt bother me to see crappy cars like that driving around (because i have a crappy LOUD car and i dont want to get caught). anyway i would prefer to see cops actually doing something useful then being wasted on defecting cars. all that money wasted on police equipment and its being used to defect car...not worth it

Well said. :)

Ha,Ha,,, they got 23 scumbags today and heaps of evidence of others involved,,,,,,Bankstowns such a lovely place,,,,lots of Panel Shops got raided as well as 2 Warehouses. Some got court with stolen boats as well. Others were stealing new cars and stripping them for parts.

I thought something was going on this morning,,,next to no cop cars at Bankstown Cop Station when I walked past at 7.00am. I'll ask the head copper next time I see him ,,he sometimes stands outside sucking on a Cig.

hope this really cuts back on the car thefts and car jacks.... for awhile anyway.

Insurance companies must be happy knowing where all their funds went.

Would really be interested to know how many of these cars are skylines or other grey imports. They mentioned most were 'exotic' cars... are skylines classed as that.. or is that an understatement.. muahaha! :)

ALL I Can say is:

SUCKED IN!!!!!! :shake: :shake: :shake: :shake:

Its a bout time those bloody cops do something good instead of bullsh*t defects and petty fines. although i get mixed feelings when i remember that the money from all the defects and fines helped to fund that bust. At least it was for a good cause.

if so it just confirms how some guys in the south west are funding their Bemmer convertables and M3's........

Actually, you'd be very surprised to find out exactly how much money these guys get from their parents.......

They act all big & tough, but 99% of them would have absolutely no chance of surviving without their mum & dad.........

MR CRX was the "workshop" that was raided? can anyone 100% confirm this or is it simply another rumour.

I just read the heral and sounds like performance workshops, car yards and mroe were involved.... they mentioned no skylines however found containers with WRX's etc and showed a shot on the news of a inside a workshop with a WRX with big FMIC in full view...

Sounds like the carjacking saga might be coming to a close *hopefully*

I know the above workshop is in bankstown and cops said they found a container FULL of parts outside the un named workshop and seized over 35 cars...

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
