Hey guys,

I just got a call from my mate who just had his car stolen.

It was taken between 8pm to 10pm tonight from a gym in St Albans. Fitness Health 101 or something along those lines.

The car has registration XRA 254. It's a burgundy R32 GTSt with type m skirts and rear pods and a GTR front bar. The pod, side skirts and front bar are painted in satin black while the rest of the car is burgundy. Ah.. wheels are black AVS model 5s in 17x9 +19. Only the fronts were fitted with these wheels, rears were some silver stockies.

Car was fitted with basic mods, a no holes front mount intercooler, 3" custom exhaust, RB25 turbo and a Nardi Deep Corn steering wheel.

The car's been reported stolen, but it'll be awesome if people could keep an eye out for this car. If you spot it, call the police please.

I don't know if there's anything else I should mention. But below is a picture of the car.

I'd post more, but it's a mates car and I don't have any more.

:thumbsup:

I've seen this car getting around the St Albans area a bit. What a shame, it knows how to move.

Does your friend go to Vic Uni? I think I've seen it parked in the student carpark

I hope it's recovered unharmed. I'll let a couple of my Melbourne friends know.

Cheers

Thanks heaps. We're all into cars here and I know that when I go for a drive, where ever it's to, I take notice of other modified/imports on the road so any extra eyes I can turn with this thread will be awesome.

Chanz, I'm not sure whether the car's ever parked at VicUni, but my mate goes to Swinburne Hawthorn.

Any help is appreciated.

Yeah, the amount of stories I've heard lately of people's cars being stolen, broken into.. It's unbelievable.

My mate goes to Swinburne so you definitely would've seen it from time to time.

There haven't been any updates on the car since its been taken..

Thanks guys.

As above, the car's been found at a local park stripped of all the wheels including the Nardi deep corn and random bits and pieces. Indicators, gear boot, oil and radiator cap? Everything else seems good.

The thief obviously owns a 32 and needed those parts..

But thanks for keeping an eye out everyone. What goes around comes around in the end.

ya i guess...its just sad how people find it ammusing to rip people off....very low act....

Atleast the car was found in a decent condition....not burnt/written off...and glad its back to the right owner...

Yep, the easiest item to keep any eye out for would be the Nardi deep corn and the AVS Model 5 wheels. Specs are 17x9 +19, not many of them in those sizes at all. Originally white but painted black.

      Engine Issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Resizing injectors in Nistune can be done a couple of ways, and there are a couple of ways that you can make a mess of it. The tuner needs to be really aware of the effects of whichever approach he uses (either K, or TIM). They are both easy enough to "get the injector size right" to run the engine. But little details like old start enrichment and hot start are affected differently, depending on which boxes you check.

      Pretty safe to say almost everyone that has tuned their own car has experienced this issue. The difference being that we have our laptop in the car and when it happens, it's literally 10 seconds of tuning to sort it.  Would you be happy to plug in your laptop and sort this yourself? It is a very simple process and there is no risk of harming your engine (if you are worried about that).

      Basically your tuner needs to drive it for the 30 min (or whatever) to create the same conditions then check the ECU settings and sensors at that time. They may not be excited to because that takes them 30 min rather than just opening the bonnet and seeing the problem straight away.... Hot start is generally not as tricky as cold start, but there would be a table for fuel enrichment vs coolant temp as a starting point

      Yeah, they all cant say anything for sure as everything is working fine . Said unable to find an issue untill it stops again. Could mist likely be CAS wiring or IAS valve issue but again not 100%
