Guess it was the blokes you had a drama with then?!

You seem to have very good luck with the police.. They found your stolen drift car and now most of your parts.. thats nice police work. Another great example of the NSW Police force.

I do have to mention, 3 people to haul so much gear is amazing.. they must of been there a long time..

Any connection to a workshop?

Guess the f**kers didn't get far hey :D

How did they find them?

One of the GTR's was spotted yesterday and watched, which let to a large police operation and raid which recovered that car and a large quantity of stock, as well as a number of the offenders which were arrested.

Sounds like something that would happen in a movie :D

Congrats guys

Lets not jump to conclusions please.

The EVO is still missing, and we are as yet unsure if all the stock was recovered, or just the majority.

Given one car is still missing, it is likely others are involved and we hope they are caught swiftly

Congrats guys

Thanks mate, we are not out of the woods yet, but its still some great progress.

Great work so far in recovering some/all the stolen goods. I was extremely pissed when I heard JJ had been broken into and the scale of things was huge. It's good to hear the NSW Police have made such great progress with the investigation so quickly.

Hope the recovery of everything inc the Evo goes well. Can't wait to see you guys back to 100% in the near future.

Like everyone else here I was shocked at the apparent scale of the theft.

Based on what you've just said, you've got to say that these guys were incredibly brash and from a thief's point of view, stupid - you would think that the last thing you do with a stolen car is let it get spotted (probably cruizing Brighton or something). But it also sounds like cops as well as the SAU and forum community have done their bit on the lookout for the cars and the goods. Superb effort.

GL getting back on your feet; Keep us updated with the followup, the cops should now be able to round up the rest of the f*ckers as well, hopefully.

Maybe you should consider keeping some (hungry) rotties on your payroll too.

f**k I only just found this out this morning and was fearing for the worst, but now the good news!! That is awesome guys. This defitnitly couldn't have happened without the help of everyone spreading the words. This reminded me of a similar incident in the US where a GTR was also stolen and one of the person on the forum spotted the car and took a picture of the thief which eventually led to his arrest..... the claw i think thats what he was called coz he's only got 2 fingers or somthing....

We need all the details guys!. Who did it, how they did it....etc Those f**kers needs to have their fingers chopped off.

Thanks guys, obviously there is information we cannot disclose at this point, but as more information is available, we will update you.

Cheers,

Steve

Cool guys, we had a theft from our workshop 6 weeks ago but a drop in the ocean compared to what you guys have gone through. Hope you guys can recover the rest of the outstanding stock asap and get back to normal trading soon.

All the best

Fantastic news Steve! And just in time too, I need a dump pipe :P

I would also like to point out the extremely quick response time by the police, a major investigation and a raid leading to recovery of 2 stolen vehicles, a large quantity of stolen goods and 3 arrests in under 24 hours!

I say well done to the NSW Policemen involved, that is a fantastic result! :action-smiley-069:

Awesome News So far.. I think the evo should be good as found since there already arrested a couple of guys , a little bit of negotiating with the cops and they will give it up.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
