That sucks - sorry to hear. But I have an awesome pager alarm & 2 kill switches, yet I still put a premium Club Lock on my car if I am going to park it anywhere for longer than 5 minutes. How you could park a Skyline (at Enfield of all places) without an alarm is just beyond me. Surely your insurance won't pay since you didn't have an alarm? Just Cars were very explicit with me about no alarm = no insurance.

so just got a call from the police they have located the car in marden they has set fire to it in someones car port and stole my rims

Always the same story. F*ckin lowlifes.

Usually once you're car gets stolen you're very unlikely to see it in one piece again. :down:

Sorry to hear that. :) Hope it works out with your insurance. It was pretty stupid of you not to put alarm in your car though.

Crap end to a crap story! I feel for ya, sadly you can't have anything nice these days without some asshole trying to take it from you. But as Andrew said, parking a Skyline without an alarm ANYWHERE is asking for it to get stolen. :down: I hope insurance does cover you for this, it would be a big hit $$$ wise if not

^^^ im sorry but that statement of shannons saying it was ok to give you insuracne without an alarm is total and utter bullshite.

you have to have an alarm on your car to be insured with shannons. im with them so i know.

^^^ in my case your wrong, i was with shannons for a few years, full comp, no alarm, rating 1 and they still insured me :down:

hrm odd, they made sure I had an alarm AND immobilizer before getting coverage. maybe thats cos its a gtr. who knows

-D

I wasn't critisising you, just stating facts. I understand you would be feeling like shit right now, I just hope others who have no alarm read this thread and think, "hmm... maybe I should install an alarm before I get that next mod, I may be next"

I didn't mean to offend

hrm odd, they made sure I had an alarm AND immobilizer before getting coverage. maybe thats cos its a gtr. who knows

yeh i ran off pages of mods, non of them an alarm and they still did me a good deal :)

anyways i really feel for the thread starter, i dont know what id do if this happened to my car :down:

well your wrong too Rhys, because i started my policy with NO alarm system, full comp through just car.

lol sorry damo, go check the small print cause it will say you need an aus standard imobilizer, yes you can commence the insurance (i did that then read the small print) but if it gets nicked and they find the car with no immibilizer then you failzz......dont beleive me call them tomorra :down:

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
