So i came home after 3 days and my cars gone.

Parked on Ivenhoe Street in Glen Waverley.

It was a 93 Red R33 GTS-T, with a series 2 spoiler.

had an after market exhaust

lots of scratches on the front bumper

no badges or anything.

It was locked with a alarm/immobaliser, and was parked right infront of my house.

I honestly have no idea how they took it with out waking up the neighbors. The car it self is loud and the alarm ontop of that.

Reported to the Glenny police, hopefully I'll find it soom.

If you guys hear/see anything thats helpful please email me or call 9566 1555 (glen waverley police)

I'm thinking could it might just be some undercover going around taking skylines away because they sort of "thought" that placing booze buses around ain't taking these "dangerous" cars off the streets to make the streets "safer", therefore taking them away and then pushing the blame onto low life dickies. But this is just a wild thought, maybe too much tv for me.

someone got his car towed from some carpark, in broad daylight.

I wont be surprised if they used a towtruck for yours/mine, but really, why target old cars like outs?

Thats what im thinking, All that effort for car thats few grand...

Interestingly enough talking to my house mate a week ago, he told me another car got stolen right out of the driveway on our street. and first thing i did was upgrade my insurance cover, plus i was leaving the car there for few days. but it was RIGHT in front of my house. i mean 5m in front of my drive way. under a street light. it just freaking pisses me off

Sorry to hear Hesh. Do you have any pics of the car you can post? Were there any unusual mods or anything like that?

Only thing thats noticeable are the scratches to the front bumper. the left side of the bumer was almost white from dmg. it had stock wheels but not the small cap that covers the bolts on the wheel.

Roof was a lil rusted on the left side, it wasnt peeling or anything.

the care it self was pretty dirty. haven't washed for a while.

After market exhaust (but almost all skylines have that)

on the drivers side, that small plastic cover that goes along the top of the door to keep water splashing in was missing.

on the front bumper both grills were missing. so theres are 2 small opening under the indicators on the front bumper.

you will have problems if you've changed the insurance cover in any way close to the theft. they're gonna suss you out really really badly.

they can suss me out all the want. i didnt do anything illegal or lied to anyone about it :)

Well.

Its not that you've done anything illegal or anything. But, it is a massive pain. more than the 14 days initially promised i can guarantee you.

Oh really?? The GTR?

Is it recovered?

Not recovered. Yup, the 32R.

Well.

Damn! ok.. well this is the first time im ever making a claim. any tips? heads up on what they gona do?

If they check you out it's coz you've upgraded your cover (to full comp I'm guessing) and not long after your car is stolen and ur making a claim.

If you haven't done anything wrong, just make sure you've got a good explanation as to why you upgraded your cover

I'd say another car being stolen in your street, and the fact you were going away would be a decent reason to upgrade

Thats exactly what i was going to say. It was mainly wasnt for theft but mostly if someone hit my car and drove off. seeing as i wasnt going to be home for the next three days.

Im waiting on the police to get back to me over the next few days if the cars not damaged and only need a good clean up im not going to make a claim. the excess is probably more than what it'll take me to patch up the car.

    • 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.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
