yeah its bullshit, im over it, but yeah people in sydney please keep an eye out as ipparently been spotted there, if its it then who knows.

Will keep an eye out here in Syd. As i am on road all day for work. I have seen a couple getting around that look very similar to yours so it aint gonna be easy.Should stand out like dogs balls with the plates however

Sh1t. Thats no good at all man. Ive had my own experience with so called "secure" underground car parks. Caught em' ripping off my wheels thanks to a neighbour who was a shift worker. Before you ask I didnt get much of a crack at em. Got one punch in before they took off. But the police caught the pricks in the end... tracked prints on the car and called me 6 months later letting me know they are having there a$$holes enlarged in jail. Keep ya hopes up mate, I hope something eventuates.

Yeah I showed it to the police, they said theres not a good ebough image to get any info from the video, they didnt even wanna see the carpark where it was taken, like you need to see the carpark to see and realise where they are coming from.

holy crap.. just saw the video!... that is f$$KED.. its quite odd how the cops didnt want to come and look at the place.. look for a point of entry.. look for prints and stuff...

Someone would have needed to use there swipe card to get into and out of the carpark. Can you ask whoever manages the access system to see who's pass was used at that time? Also maybe try a different police station or talk to them at a different time of the day. I have found when i needed the police to help me some police stations are completely lazy and useless! Also the cops could freeze the video and enhance it a little. Cops can be so lazy and useless unless they are writing you a ticket.

Hey all,

Last night I got home at about 7pm and parked my car in my carpark underground in the basement of my appartment building in southport on the Gold Coast. This morning I have gone down to get in it to take it to have my new bumper, side skirts, and rear pods fitted and noticed it was gone. took me 10 minutes to come to my sensus and admit to myself that it is actually gone.

The car is a Maroon R33 GTS model. Very distinctive skyline not like others, it has a black bonnet, black roof blending into the sides. GTR wing, LR style front bumper and a front mount intercooler on the front. The rego plates on it are QLD plates and they are "SKY008", the plates are red with silver letters/numbers and the car also has a silver square fuel sticker cover. It also has black and silver rims very distinctive. It also has a red jetpilot sticker on the rear windscreen.

I will post pictures up of what it looks like at the moment.

EVERYONE BE ON THE LOOKOUT PLEASE AS IT IS VERY DISTINCTIVE. THIeVES MAY HAVE HEADED SOUTH SO BE ON THE LOOKOUT PLEASE. THERE WILL BE A REWARD!

Please contact me on 0402859795 for info or PM me instantly please.

Thanks,

Ben H

THERE WILL BE A REWARD SO KEEP AN EYE OUT PLEASE!! $$

hi

hope you find your skyline soon

i had the same experience a few years ago with my skyline which i love vry much.

one morning i was going to work, found the car missing from my driveway....

so i know excatly how you feel ...HOPE THE BASTARD WHO STOLEN YOUR CAR ROT

IN HELL !!!!!

anyway i have never given up hope to find it and i did with my persistence and

luck..to cut a long story short..found the skyline with some damages but was happy

as it wasnt insured. had to trade in for a passat turbo so i can have a peace of mind

anywhere i park my car as i know that no one will steal a vw passat.

i have always love and fortunate to own skyline even well before they won bathurst.

only after a few years i started to have confidence back to own another skyline and

and a few months ago i bought an r33 and enjoying driving it everyday to aand from

work. I hope you dont wait too long before you get another .but i am surely hope

that you find your skyline just like me.

GOOD LUCK

RH

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
