Hi all

My beloved R34 Sedan was stolen from the Warringah Mall (Northern beqaches) car park, on Friday night.

As I said it's an R34 Sedan, Metalic silverpaint, rear spoiler remmoved, NISMO clear indicator covers, slightly lowered. with Enkei RPF1 alloys.

Also it had a total respray about 2 years ago which looks farkn sick , probably one of the best R34 sedans around.

Thankfully I do have comprehensive insurance, but I want it back as I'll never find another one that good.

Could you guys please keep an eye for it.

Rego GTT-04D

Much appreciated

Paul

Interested to know where you were parked at Warringah Mall... not many cars get stolen from that area - grew up there and all's been relatively peaceful!

Please give more info, I have a tonne of mates n family still living in the immediate surrounds of that mall.

The car was parked right out the front of Liquire Land, inside the car park, but not undercover.

I've lived in this area my whole life and like you I thought it was fine, never had a second thought about parking their.

Looks like it can happen anywhere.

Next door neighbour's VL Grp A HDT got stolen from his acreage and a locked garage to boot.

Seems that the lowlifes came from 35Kms away. And that wasn't the only one in pieces in their shed.

A person also has to be careful NOT to give out the proper Number Plate if poss.when selling a car. It's a giveaway for where the car is garaged.

An RTA staff member at Lithgow got prosecuted a few years ago for accessing people's private MV particulars.

Insurance claim inspectors also interview repeat theft victims with the Q; "Did you have this car up for sale?"

For future reference, you should always try to park outside the Woolworths entrances (either outside or inside the BigW carpark). There's more human-traffic flowing through those two areas than any other part of the mall in terms of parking areas - thieves would be less keen on stealing something in front a passers-by.

Hence why my car is not stored anywhere near the RTA's registered address for me :P

No I did not have the car for sale, I was in the middle of modifying it, also had the best paint job around.

And no I've never had a car stolen before.

Thanks Stan, probably a good idea, although there were also a lot of people where it was parked, because it's near Coles.

Hay mate - sorry to hear that ;) my biggest fear is getting my r34 stolen....could you tell us what kind of - if any - alarms or immobiliser you had on your car? - Any kill switches – where they were located? thanx mate – I know if someone wants something bad enough they will get it – but at least we can make it as hard as possible for those f**king arseholes.

The only thing I had was a 3 point insurance approved immobilisor.

Looks like it wasn't enough, but as you say if they really want it they'l get it.

I'm considering a GPS tracker for my next car.

    • Hey everyone, I recently bought myself a 2001 Nissan Stegea M35, and I've had a few issues that I had to fix, my car would start intermittently and I had a bad rocker cover leak, after a couple days of looking I finally found a part number that interchanges with the OEM starter as the OEM starters at $1300 and I can't afford that, this starter was only $270 and I replaced the start and still had the same issues, I posted a video asking for help online and it went very well, some guy said it was probably a bad ignition switch so I took my dash apart and turns out my ignition switch was half screwed in and was loose, once it was tightened it fired right up, I found a local place called "Boost factory" and they sold me a part of OEM Nissan rocker covers, they were $600 which was a shocker but I couldn't find them anywhere else, so I installed them and fixed my oil leak as the old rocker cover was cracked and warped, I now need to replace my boost air inlet hoses as they have some cracks.
    • I am being real ocd and do not want to make amy mistakes so appreciate all help provided. I am overly cautious so asking for opinion even if i know the answer   few questions,   1.re tensioner, should spring be greased lightly?    2.tensioner has two washers , one pressure washer and other has recessed/ seat. I am going to put the recessed one facing tensioner where edges are cut out and pressure washer on top   3. my car has custom triger kit sold few years ago by guy who initially built the engine. I moved the crank gear and it moved in and out easy, only way to remove belt is to slide the crankshaft gear forward which I did. I have seen these being very tough to move , anything to do with my woodruff key?   it has a crank sensor shown in purple which I assume reads from the 12 teeth position mounted to the crankcase gear   4. timing belt doesn’t have arrow stating front or back just a arrow which I think is direction of rotation . Do you agree?   5.i figured out why my crankcase cover was worn as there was no washer installed over the crankcase cover before the harmonic balancer was put in place. It is missing, anyone knows the part number? It looks like this https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-crankshaft-timing-gear-rear-plate-washer-nissan-s13-ca18-a31-r32-rb20-r33-r34-c33-c34-c35-rb25?currency=USD   https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4535.382Zy2 https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4537.382dSz https://tinypic.host/image/IMG-4534.382q4U  
    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
