Hi peoples, sorry to return to the pages of SAU with such bad info (I've had a rather busy 6 or so months fixing 2 cars), but my friends R34 was stolen from around Kilburn last night. It's a Black GT-T coupe & had 18 inch chrome 5 spoke wheels on the front & stock rims on the rear (no not for burnouts 18's were worn out & he's been a bit strapped for cash), mirror tinting on the front windows, DVD player with flip out screen & somewhat more unique a Towbar!

The vehicles rego is XOS-369. Anyone with any info on it please let the cops or us know.

Thanks

ah that sucks mate, gl with finding it. Did he have an alarm?

Just got off the phone to him, understandably a bit pissed.

Yeah it had a full alarm immobiliser fitted by the boys at GT Autosound. However he noticed when he got back home that there were scrape marks where it was parked, indicating that a tow truck was involved... It was parked right next to a unit, but no one heard anything, most likely as they never had to break in to steal it.

It's not looking good atm, most likely already hidden in a dodgy chop shop.

If there was ever a case for upgrading to GPS security this is it.

This info would be greatly appreciated, would be nice to catch one of these SOB's for change. If you could pass this info onto the Police tomorrow too my friend would be greatly appreciative.

UPDATE: Just spoke to him again tonight & he told me that the last time he saw it was about 10 - 10:30pm so the tow truck you saw SICKR33GTS-T unfortunantly couldn't have been the one we were after. Thanks anyway for taking notice & coming forward.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol

      No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
