Sorry to hear :( Yeah as others have said it would have had to of been a tow truck job. It seems this is just how its done now days. I'd be calling all the nissan wreckers in phone book. One of my mates had his ae86 stolen from outside his house one day. It was towed and he called every toyota wreckers in the area. He found it in Epping, it was stolen from Rowville.

did the insurance endup covering it?

No idea, i spoke to the investigator they sent out yesterday, he went to knock on my neighbour's doors to ask, and he might want to interview my housemates, and my ex, and the previous owner of the car.

wants to see my phone records, run a credit check on me, run a police check on me and all sorts of things like that.

might want to know what i'm having for dinner tonight, i might point them to the "what i ate today" thread in the wasteland though.

the police did asked me to go ask the neighbours but that was last night and i didnt wana go around knocking on peoples houses at 8pm. Figured i might do it on the weekend.

phone records? what good are they?

seems a bit extreme for a car thats not very expensive.

either way i think ill wait to see what the police say, if they find it in good condition i dont see why i should go claim it.

I think you're supposed to report the theft of the car to insurance anyway.

I have no idea what good phone records are for. But well, if they want it, i'll let them have it.

does it matter when i report it to the insurance though? i much rather not claim it if the cars in a drivable condition.

Can someone enlighten me about if any car theft ever made to the news headlines before? Because something's smells fishy.

Hesh. No point asking why your neighbours did nothing when they're like 15m from your home. One of my previous rented places had a neighbour throwing a party one night up til 3am and the noise was so loud that I reckon it could be heard 20 m from that house. And guess who was the only one who called the police? Me. No others. No one else cared. And the noise was so bad that the two officers who came had to literally smash on the front door and the windows to get some attention. Do your neighbours ever say hi to you at any time? If not, don't pin any hopes on them cause I wouldn't.

<br>but really, why target old cars like outs?<br>
<br><br>on the contrary me thinks. i think most of the time older cars are a lot easier to steal so a small number of d!ckheads steal them and just bum around in them for a week as a means of transport then dump them somewhere. one of my friends dad's had his commodore (was a VT so thats 10-13 years old) broken into just to have the contents of his glove box emptied on the driveway (what does that achieve?). a lot of people might think "my cars old/cheap, it's not worth stealing" but on the flip side, its probably an easier target.<br><br>anyway, sorry to hear man and i hope its still in good condition when you get it back.

Guys, I wana say thanks for everyone for helping and giving tips with this whole thing.

also anyone know a place near camberfield or in that side of the town where i can get the ignition unit replace. Im guessing they might have stuffed it up trying to start it.

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
