Unfortunately I saw this car on the side of the road after what it looked like impacting the gutter sideways on my way home yesterday. I hope they catch the f**kers involved!

Just got referred to this website, the silver R33 that hit the gutter in Kambah was mine. Taken ~5:45 Monday afternoon. PM me if you want any details that may actually assist in regards to the white skyline this thread is about.

Good to see that people have each other's backs around Canberra, even people they don't know :D

Finally saw MY car for the first time in 2 weeks. Out at Pickles, the cops AND NRMA failed to tell me it had been taken from police holding. Pathetic pricks probably aren't going to even assess it to get a quote for repairs because it's "too old". From the outside, the damage HARDLY looks bad. 4 ruined rims, f**ked suspension on one side (though they replace all as far as I know), and whatever else took a flogging in the way of steering / drivetrain. Though from looking under the car as best I could, not even the exhaust (sitting at 100mm clearance) has made contact with the ground on it's way up the gutter.

Should I at least try to demand they assess the car before calling it a write-off? I mean, other than the rims, not much else looked very damaged at all. The car was just sagged at the back obviously due to suspension damage.

OH! and the icing on the cake is...THE BASTARDS LEFT IT OUTSIDE @ PICKLES WITH THE WINDOW DOWN. IN THE STORM WE HAD THE OTHER DAY. Amazing...

Import = expensive to repair, and if the diff is stuffed I think you're better getting the money then a repaired car.

If anyone sees their CONFIRMED stolen car PM me if they want assistance.

If you want the cops, tell them you've got a gun and you're going to kill them. They will turn up then.

Of course I'd rather the money, but considering their methods of determining what to do about my car, and how they've treated it during this, I dare say the costs in repairing it might not be my problem soon.

Either way, I'm out of pocket $4k for a car I owned 2 months if they just give me the money.

i dont know if im being a little to careful but today i saw something very sus, there is a r33 parked in a busy carpark a car with 3 individuals (20 something wearing hoodies an those stupid Corey partyboy sunglasses) enters see the skyline stop about a meter away all three individuals look at the skyline then one of them gets on his phone while still looking at the skyline they drive a few meters park and wait in there car all three still look at the skyline for about 5min and then drive off...............everyone should read this as the skyline steeling is going to continue and by the looks of it they are picking their next victims. the skyline i mentioned is mine and i always have my eye it i know car thieves read forums its usually how they find out about your car so when i see something sus i take note of it

i say we buy a cheap 33 or 32 shell, fill it to the brim with explosives, park it somewhere, and wait

I hear my 33 could do with stock rims, then perhaps something to hold it up (collapsed shocks). Tow it somewhere and wait.

Takers?

i haven't had a car taken but had it vandalised and rims stolen (the problem was taken care of because it was in a small town where i know alot of people) i didnt get my rims back but my car was fixed but it was still a horrid horrid feeling!! I than upgraded my alarm but am about to do a serious alarm upgrade, everyone will know if someone so much as lifts my door handle when it is armed.. I am so paranoid about my car i literally park it outside my bedroom window and at the front door of work at one job and the back door at the other. (in other words i can always see it or hear it :) yay)

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
