Hey Guys,

Been a member on here for a while, pity my first post has to go like this.

Last night (26/04/10) at around 10PM some dirtbags lifted my wheels from my R33 while it was parked on the grass outside my house in St Leonards as I was sitting in my lounge room! They managed to get away with the rears before they triggered my alarm and I came running. Because they jacked it up on the moist ground the car slid off the jack and beached itself down to the hubs. I spent the night till around 1AM raising the car and putting stockies back on. This is quite annoying. These wheels have a lot of sentimental value to me as I have put so much work into this car and these wheels represent a large amount money to me and I cant afford to have them replaced. I'm surprised there was no major damage done to the car as they just jacked it up on the floor of the car and whacked a big brick under there. If I could ask you guys to keep an eye out for these that would be greatly appreciated. Details are as follows.

Work CR-Kai

18x9.5 +38

Gunmetal

Maxxis Rubber

This is a pic of the front, but you get the idea.

they mate that sux big balls. ive driven past the car a lot and to be honest im very surprised that you keep it out the front of your house.

ive had a car stolen and i vowed never to buy another untill it could be kept safe in a yard or shed.

ill keep a look out for you mate.

thanks damo

Thanks guys, that's really great!

I do have a garage, but the drive is wayyyy to steep to get anything in there, so no choice but to keep it outside.

Now I have two Work Wheels in my lounge. Best decoration if you ask me, I'm surprised my girlfriend puts up with it!

Thats crap, sorry to hear it, will def. keep an eye out for these. 2 of these would look pretty obvious on a car if they stay around the lonnie area....

Yeah its pretty crap. They were in immaculate condition too. Think one of them may have had a *slight* ding on one of the spokes and that's about it.

They would be pretty recognisable around launnie, I think I've only spotted a couple of them getting around. Got my fingers crossed that they turn up somewhere.

    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
