Why? Because they don't have cameras to cover the whole carpark.. even in the most secluded corner

I park there almost every day for work... yesterday i got back to my car spot and she was gone... turns out some lowlife scum tried to steal my car... and failing that, stole another car.. used it to push my car down 2 levels of parking (no, no cameras picked this up at all.. noone saw it and noone reported it) to a secluded area of the car park... and stole my rims.. They left in the stolen car... star city managed to catch them leaving the carpark.. oh joy!

by the time i found the car it was balanced precariously on a jack on one side (in the middle of my side skrit so its now bent) and my spare tyre on the other side... the car was very unstable and was leaning a little on my front bar which is now cracked and broken

All up the f**kers got:

4x Work Emotion XD9 rims, 17x8.5 fronts, and 17x9.5 backs... one of the rims has 2 seperate sections of gutter rash on it

Powerfc ECU and hand controller - Serial number to be added

And some lame ass cds

If anyone comes across the above selling cheap (and I will find my ECU serial number to add to this), please let me know so I can pass the info onto the police.

Thank you.

Thats no good you would think with all the money they have that there well be cameras everywhere....

I always go star city for dinner and an occasional gamble lol never had trouble there thought it would be a very good sercue carpark now i will think twice...

And yeah its good your car wasnt taken

Oh crap.. not good Mona :D

Hope your bits turn up!

I've made it a habit to hide my controller under the dash since the prices of PFC have skyrocketed..

"star city managed to catch them leaving the carpark" - I guess you meant caught them on video, not caught them physically?

sorry, i meant they were caught on camera not physically caught.. i wish!

Yes there was an alarm.. thats the only reason they didn't take my car and settled for the next best thing. The reason the alarm didn't notify anyone is because, i believe, they were actually in my car the day before.. they disabled the noise box but when they tried to get my car yesterday, they still couldn't get through my alarm which pretty much imbolises the engine

My ecu and hand controller are not in sight.. the ecu is behind the kick panel in the passenger footwell, and my pfc has cabling into the glove box.. the assholes did not steal my radio, turbo timer, or boost controller or gauges.. they obviously wnated the car, and when they realised they werne't going to get it, simply took what they could as quickly as they could.. i suspect they opened to glovebox to find and take what was in there, and ended up finding the hand controller which they then traced to the ecu..

I'm always suspicious of the security guards at places like star city.. it just seems all a bit convenient that they get away with barely any trace. The thieves are either very stupid to be stealing from a place that is theoretically covered with cameras, or they know that they cant get caught because they're mates with the security guards or whatever.

I'm not saying that in this case the security had anything to do with at all, its just a conspiracy theory!

Hey mate i'm with you on this one, i slept in my car once at star city, my boys were gambling and it wasnt my thing, was buggered so i thought i'd have a nap in my car (r34), 10 minutes later a security knocks on my window asking if i' ok, told him i was just sleepy and waiting for my friends.

Wondered what would have happened if i wasnt in the car....

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
