Hi guys,

My dad had his 2008 FPV F6 stolen down on the Gold Coast today (Robina Town Centre). My dad has had the car up for sale and someone came to inspect it. The guy asked for a drive, and as my dad got out and walked around to the passenger side to swap seats, the guy got in the drivers seat and slammed the accelerator. CCTV footage is being chased up and the police have the guy's description.

My dad also had his wallet, phone and other valuable/sentimental possesions in it. As usual, any information would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Sorry to hear man

What an Arse hole - hope you find him and fark him up real good

Its one thing getting it stolen from a car park, front yard etc, its another when you trust a person and they screw you like that :)

Karma will catch up with this cock head real quick

Hope they find it in one piece for your dad man

Insurance == all ok so far.

I can do better than a description - We have CCTV footage of the guy. I'll hopefully have it on Monday and will post it up. Would be great if people could spread it around, see if we can find the guy.

Got the footage yet?

not yet, sitll chasing it up. It definitely exists, I just have to try and get my hands on it (apparently too large to send over the internet for the guy's email, so i may have to visit in person).

It would be well worth it, since this is a Carjacking and your premiums shouldn't go up at all as well as nil excess payments on the claim. :D

    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
