Well it appears that my locked garage in my secure parking lot was broken into a few days ago to my behold this morning when I went down to get some of my tools out...

The nice people relieved me of my $1000 Shoe helmet, my king chrome socket and drive set, a stainless RB25 high mount manifold, some subs, and a Garrett 3076.... So now I'm absolutely devo! and who knows what else was taken... FFS!

But hey at least they left me with a couple of space savers, a set of supra wheels and the stock bits off my s15... oh and my CBR 250 and GSXR 600...

What can you do but laugh and hope it put food on the table for some crack family somewhere...

Very disappointing to hear this, It might be worth moving your bikes to another secure location for a period of time, just in case the dirtbags decide to return and finish the job. I bloody hate thieves :down: !

Thanks guys, yeah its pretty shit... Just got off the phone and the insurance does not cover the gear in the garage apparently... Although I have 5k of "car parts" listed on the insurance! I think a few more phone calls are in store for comminsure today I think...

I'm waiting for the Cops to come around to check it all out. So just locked everything up until they get here. But I am moving most of my stuff out today so I wish they would hurry up!

hahaha I have about 12 padlocks waiting to go through all the disks on the bikes, should make it interesting.

Alas all I want is my turbo and manifold back really!!

Ask about their disputes resolution process. All insurers are required by law to have one, you may see greater success using that than the person on the phone.

    • 4 to 5 is fine. It will be slow, but that's better than blowing turbos. I don't have a PS pump idle up solenoid on my car, because... I think when we put the Neo in we retained my R32 lines. But.... From inspecton of the R34 vacuum hose diagram, you can see that the solenoid needs to be connected to the turbo inlet as source of clean air) and the plenum (as source of vacuum - which is the place for the air to flow to to cause the idle to increase). So 3 to 1 is VERY WRONG. 3 should go to either the turbo inlet, or the plenum. Follow the other hose from the PS solenoid and if it goes to the plenum, then your 3 goes to 2 2 would also serve as a bleed port for a boost solenoid.
    • Pull them out and pull more apart. You can't do shit with them still bolted to the floor of the car.
    • Yes it is. ZD1 is on the other side of the board. Where ZD1 is marked is clearly opposite a 2 pin device. Our 3 pin device here is not a ZD.
    • Alright, a little update on this... I called Fulcrum, who used to be the distributor in Australia. No Bueno, they don't service them anymore.  Called shock works, who don't service them but offered to dyno the shocks for performance, and suggested DNA in Sydney might service them.  Called DNA, who also do not service them and basically said they try to steer customers away from tein for this exact reason these days- there is just no support for them anymore apparently.  Both SW and DNA said they are a not necessarily a bad product, but they just don't service the brand or know anyone who does service the brand anymore.  So... I could keep calling around but at this point I think I'll probably just spring for the shockworks product, unless anyone here knows anything.  Cheers 🍻 
    • That's not a transistor --- it's marked ZD1 which makes it a zener diode. As to what the breakdown voltage is, not enough there to divine.
