I'm with Ruffels,

If someone wants to steal your car they will, no matter how good the alarm system is, that's why insurance is a must.

I hope your R33 turns up buddy...

i have family friends who had thier brand new 2008 bmw x5 stolen last year... only solution is flatbed, bmw security systems are supposed to be invincible! so if they really want the car... they will take it

i remember reading years ago this show s14 was taken from a performance mechanic shop in the middle of the night, the thieves broke in, bypassed the shops security, then moved 6 cars and stole the s14

So is it Doug or Ben we go to for alarm installs around here haha.

Anyone got details please? :wub: Thanks!

Ben - via SAU-Vic discount/club membership. He will do your car if you are not a member, but the price will not be the same :)

If you want his details PM me.

I think last time i spoke to him he was upto about 55-60 SAU-Vic cars lol :wub:

POST YOUR PHONE NUMBER HERE SO WE CAN CALL YOU IF WE SPOT IT.

0433 236 389

If someone spots it, I'd prefer if they call the police, only because it's already on their system and they would be able to chase it down/tow it away if they had a chance.

Thanks though.

check the spotted section. some one saw a silver r33 with black bonnet and stickers down the side alone in deer park ....

Some PICS would help people. black bonnets is common.

Done.

Hmm..weren't you selling your car on the forums? I hope you find your car quick!

No offence but if you were selling your car on carsales as well, getting insurance to cover for the stolen car is going to be a little tricky as they will suspect foul play there. Happened to a friend of mine who was selling his car for a few months and he reported his car got stolen. The insurance company had people investigating him from head to toe before he finally got his money back. Everything from phone records to internet ads will be checked.

Hope you'll find your car soon!

Yes I had it for sale a while back but decided to keep it. I've finished uni and I've found a good job so I thought I'd do a few mods that I'd been wanting to do for a while. I had just replaced the clutch too! What a pain in the ass this is!

Quick update. The car was found in Avondale Heights by the police. I'm still waiting to get details from them. Apparently they arrested a drugged up female that was sitting in the car at the time and all they would tell me was that the car was "partially stripped" whatever that means.

I'll let you guys know what happens, I'm just waiting to call Shannon's to put in a claim tomorrow.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
