Wanted:- a person...

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

7) that's a male

8) who doesn't go to church

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

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).

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
