White R33 Stolen (Recovered)

Thursday the 15th of August was a bad night for me, this is just some advice for all of you car owners out there.

Watch out for people that you dont know that come up to you and ask you for a cigarette, cause they might just turn around and start bashing you for your car keys....

Well thats what happened to me on that un-fortunate night, the guy looked as calm as can be and then he just turned on me.

I ended up in hospital, with 8 stitches between my eyes, black eye, tooth knocked out (boots are hard when they are kicking you in the face) and a totally cut up face, and to top it off the car was in a high speed chase, the guy ran 23 red lights, and the cops couldn't keep up, and it ended up a bit wrecked in the South Perth area (Minus my front suspension and front rim and front bumper), the panel beater says over $10,000 damage.

Sorry for the long message, but just a word of warning for all u guys (and gal's) to just watch yourselves and try not to become another victim......

Until next time

Get well soon R33_Cam!

I saw an article in the West Aussie today about a Skyline chased and crashed in Beldon. Except that this article said that the car is a GTR not a GTST and the chase was up to 170km/hr. I'm assuming that the article got the car wrong.

Get well soon! Hope Perth's not getting as F&*%ed up as Sydney....:D

Best wishes

Oh no I live around there aswell, actually in Iluka about 5 minutes up Marmion Ave but i know exactly where you are talking about! I have seen many cars congregate around there skylines holdens at the maccas some nights.... can you remember what the guys look like? Did crimestoppers manage to get any photos of them in the paper? If so i will keep a look out for ya and call ya if i see em!

I am sure i speak on behalf of everyone hear when i say that is bad news dude and we all hope you make a quick recovery in time to run over them or a drive by! :headshot:

Also did you get your stitches done at joondalup hospital? the wait there is appaling! i had my head cracked open a while ago and i was sitting in waiting with blood spurting from my head for AGES!!! i ended up swearing at the nurse i don't normally loose my temper but in that situation it couldn't be helped!

lots of people carry big sticks in the car next to them, i do, and know a few people who do too. I do martial arts, so i went to where i get my supplies from, and the advice given was sticks are too big, slow and illegal.

The best thing i was told was pepper spray (not capsicum spray), the proper stuff that shoots out like a jet, and burns, and takes the guys breath away, accurate to 3 or 4 metres, and able to hit multiple attackers. It is completely legal, fits on a key ring, cheap, and you can even shoot from inside your car. Im waiting for the next shipment.

Yeh might be a good idea.

I reckon i can swing my big iron bar with ruthless efficency. It only weighs like 10 kilos so u have to get em once:D

Still i wouldnt be too paranoid about this kinda stuff chances are it wont happen to you and if it does u wont be fast enough to see it coming:eek:

    • Blitz ER34 at some point hopefully, should be allowed in Gr3 if they do.
    • Stock R33 boost control, with the exhaust, and FMIC done, will boost creep. There is no tuning around it if it is the factory boost solenoid.   If it has an aftermarket electronic boost controller, the settings/mapping can be altered in it.   Oil could be anything as mentioned, however did it ever do it before you did the turbo swap? How much and how often did you drive the car before the swap?   I'm hinging on too much oil supply, or it's not draining properly.   To check, pull the air outlet off the turbo. Is it full of oil? Drop the exhaust at the turbo, does it appears to be oiled/coked? Now pull turbo and check the exhaust manifold, does it appears oiled and coked the same way?   Secondly, the PCV could even be stuffed / not functioning properly and will cause blowing of blue smoke.
    • Almost any ECU would work, from a 30 yr old PowerFC to a new Motec/Autronic. But presumably you want new middle of the road ECU, meaning that you want a Haltech or a Link, most likely. As to which model though? I dunno. I don't keep track of what they have in their current ranges. You don't want a plug in though, because plug ins can start to cause you the same wiring issues that you have to chase up with your stock ECU/loom swaps when an engine transplant is involved. If you use a Haltech (and presumably a Link) you could put the base map for the engine in and drive it around and not even need to "tune" it. It will work just fine. I can't recommend a tuner without a location (and even then I can't recommend many, being as I never use any tuners except myself and my brother-in-law). And not many tuners are happy to remote tune. Maybe they'd be happier doing it for a basically stock setup that just needs to be demonstrated to be working properly. But even then, not being able to be with the car to see what the hell is going on and sort out the inevitable problems that will result from an engine conversion done by an amateur..... unlikely to be enthusiastic about the job. And if you think that just adding 2 wires for the boost sensor is difficult - you don't want to be trying to install and set up an aftermarket ECU. You're going to have to bite down hard on something with either approach.
    • wired everything up and confirmed that the red with white stripe is indeed the fuel pump pin on this harness.
