Holy sh!tballs man.... From what i've read, you found the car?

I don't care what the law is, if someone breaks into my house, they are going to cop a beating. Let me know if you need a hand with anything and i hope everything sorts itself out man.

This kind of thing freaks me out.

Wish you the best mate!

Sorry to hear mate. Like some have said, these guys obviously aren't your average low lifes, they've taken it up a notch... Hope they get em.

Surprised it got done in your area too, with tight streets like that (not a busy road) I'm wondering if someone scoped your place or followed you home one day.

Just to update everyone I went and had a look at the car.. Definately big fellows as the seats were set to 'habbib' position..

Turbo got so hot that its melted the heater lines on the firewall which drained the radiator.. so fingers crossed they didnt cook the turbo or motor!

Wheels are shot and they took my little socket set out of the glovebox but left all the breaker bars and sockets under the seats along with stereo/amp etc..

I can only hope Karma strikes and they both get hit by a bus and suffer immensely. People cant have nice things anymore these days.

Time for GTR quaters and a rebuild perhaps..

Yep and even if they caught them the courts wouldn't give them much of a sentence. Crimes like this could do with some capital punishment. I'm fine with killing someone for even a moderate level crime such as this. Treat others as you expect to be treated....I would expect to get my arse totally kicked or even be killed if I broke into a persons house and stole their stuff. Don't care if they were only 16yrs old.

It's not as if they were stealing to get some food, or committed a crime to defend themselves.

Hey Dave,

It sucks that this happened, from another comment you made else where, where you live is a perfectly fine environment for a skyline. They get stolen from even the best suburbs. :(

I truly hope that they haven't killed the car on you, as I know how much you loved it.

I do have a heap of bits and pieces you can have (Interior ones) if they fit your car and need them to repair it.

Dave, i have to laugh a little at your post with the pics.

General gist of the thread .. " Some bastards just broke into my house and stole my car... we found it tho... but the rear tyres and screwed, looks like they flogged the crap out of it..."

Then this.

Your Sig after your photo's just made me piss myself.

what a bunch of low lifes!!! if it makes you feel any better my car was broken into after a mag shoot they stuffed all the barrel and tried to steal it but the civic has airbags (iknow i was into show cars.... ) and they couldnt move it so stole the stereo and slashed the pass seat keyed the quarter and ripped out the TV screen by that time my mum was up and ran out the front and they threw it at her :(

long story short car was printed found the guy, never told me he went to court and got 13 hours community service and i got sweet f*k all!!!! ...... whoooo and and am now selling up sticking to stock looking skyline .... what a crock of shit the system is!!

    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
