Wanted:- a person...

1) that thinks only of himself

2) who can't afford wheels

3) who's idle - not working

4) that doesn't respect other people's property

5) who's a manipulator/opportunist/thief

6) who you'd never trust with your last dollar

7) that's a male

8) who doesn't go to church

9) who's too young to be arthritic or poor of sight

10) who's going to be a corpse when blind_elk catches up with him

Now, can we narrow it down from 20,000 ? ? ? :D

Not at all, Terry. When I get hold of the pathetic excuse for a member of the human race:

1. Boil in oil

2. Tar and feather

3. Hang, draw and quarter.

4. Get nasty!

no offense, but this car was not stolen because someone wanted it for themself... it is mearly a mode of transport for some delinquent, so once they are finished with it, the police will find it with a busted door lock and a busted kaybarrel... in a few days i would imagine

^^^Nice gesture JH ! :(

I will drive down from the Blue Mtns (not to be confused with Sydenie) to Vic to witness this event!

And "nasty" means?

Any word yet in 24 hrs???

Watching forums for parts???

Yeh, thanks John. Just get them to call Werribee Police - 9742 9444. They will need to be patient, because it took me THREE attempts to get someone to even answer the phone, and they had to call me back because they had something else that needed to be done. You'd think in a station that big that they could fit more than 1 person in to answer calls!

Terry, still wondering myself what could be nastier than the first 3 options! Not sure how big the market is for used R30 bits. As Ruffels suggested, probably some little PoS too cheap to purchase a train / bus fare to get home.

Got free time Sunday morning if you want to organise a local search. Early start while the roads are quiet. A few cars could cover a decent area. You'd have to identify likely places to look (shopping centre car parks, industrial estates, back roads etc).

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
