I would like to thank everyone who kept an eye out for the Stagea. It is greatly appreciated. Unfortunately for me the search is over as the car was found burnt to a pulp in Mawson Lakes at 7am this morning :(

That sucks man ;( Sorry to hear it.

Lowlife pricks...

oh no. Hope that someone got seriously burnt while trying to burn your pride and joy mate

Yeah it sucks big time! But there are some salvageable parts from it. The rims, tyres and brakes are fine. The motor didn't ignite so most of it is still ok. Apparently onlookers saw it pull up at Mawson Lakes at 6am yesterday morning, full to the brim with stolen goods. Then a truck came and they moved the loot from my car into the truck, torched it and took off. Hoping that bastards get caught!! Too bad nobody that saw it thought to take down a number plate for the truck.....

So now the process of stripping the car and selling what I can begins! I'll try to put some pics up so you can see the damage.

Just joined to provide further info for you. I get news updates from sapol on facebook. Yesterday they mentioned your burnt out car plus a truck being stolen from a construction site where your car was located. About an hour later, they had a pursuit with that truck on the gawler to two wells road heading into gawler.

Truck was abandoned in craigmore and sapol arrested one of the offenders with another one escaping.

Hopefully they can link them to you car and give them what they deserve.

Try contacting Corporal Security aswell as they patrol a majority of Mawson Lakes and may have seen something. Definitely pass any info onto SAPOL as it could help their case. According to the GRN paging website, MFS received the call about the car fire at 620am.

Stagea is getting pulled apart asap. So if anybody knows people who want any bits, I will be taking photos of what is salvageable.

Thanks guys.

Might be worth throwing up a thread in the 'Stagea Parts Classifieds' section http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/forum/145-stagea-parts-classifieds/

Sorry to hear dude. Sucks big time. :down:

When you're ready to part, there is something I'd like and its a little hard to explain the part. I'll tee up a time to look at the car when you have retreived it and are ready to part it, so I can point to what I'm after.

p.s. how bad are passenger side doors? Warped from the heat of fire?

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
