Hi All,

It comes with great sadness that this morning I had a phone call from the new owner that my previous Skyline (which i sold around 2 months ago) has been stolen at 5:15AM this morning in the suburb of Darch. I loved that car to bits and many of you have seen it on cruises and have known how clean that skyline was. The reason why I am posting this even though its not my car anymore, is that these thief's need to be caught and brought to justice.

It seems like they knew were it was, came and just drove it off. Keys were NOT stolen and it had a laserline alarm/immobilisers installed as well as a autowatch pin keypad. There was no glass at the scene, so it leaves me wondering if they pryed open the window and press the button to open the passenger door. Even if this occured the alarm would of went off either by the motion sensors or the door sensor when it was opened, this seemed to not deter them.

Its a distinct car, (anyone who has seen it before would recongnise it) with white P1 buddy club rims on it, lowered, Front mount with the mpsec front bar that has the middle bit cut out and slotted rotors all round. Number plate is 1DPB 625. It also has a Japanese sticker, with three Japanese characters on the top middle of the rear window., it also has a very slight cracked driver side indicator and small scratch on the passenger side door.

I will post photos tonight when I get home to help identify the car, I don't have any photos with me at the moment.

I have a feeling these guys are somewhat professional to get the car going with ease despite system in place to help stop them.

I have included its mod list below, incase you see things pop up in the for sale thread/quokka

I am devasted even though its not my car, alot of blood, sweat and tears went into this car, and the thought of it being thrashed, smashed and maybe even chopped up is bringing me close to tears.

If you have any info on it, please give me a call on 0434 513 444 or pm me on here.

Cheers guys!

Sorry to hear about this mate. Always sad when a Skyline is stolen, or any other car for that matter.

You said the alarm system is overkill right? I.e. you spent a lot on it? I'm not being rude or anything, but maybe this was an inside job in the sense that the new owner organised for it to be stolen so he could claim on insurance? I mean, i doubt this is the case; just a suggestion.

Regardless, I hope the car is found :)

That could be be the case, but unfortunately the new owner had yet to buy any insurance...

I still don't understand how they started to so easily, with the system I had in it should of made it very difficult. Unless they just chucked it on the back of a tilt tray truck?

Unless they just chucked it on the back of a tilt tray truck?

This seems most likely to me, I highly doubt they got into the car without setting off the alarm, bypassed the keypad and disabled the immobilizer, all without the keys.

Ahhh some people really should have been swallowed :( Sorry to hear mate, I'll keep an eye out.

I used to drive it to curtin when i had her. usually parked her at the loading zone bay near 408 abacus.... was the best spot as no one could park next to her and leave dents in the doors, when they opened theirs...

f**k man......im nearly in tears ......

Who the fck would do that....

I will be keeping a massive eye out, and will take pictures if i see it my phone is always ready to take pics.

I work in lansdale/fremantle, so i drive alot, so im most likely to see it if it is driving around.

Feel for you.

My old car got broken into a while ago, they stole My brand new deck/sub/speakers :( worth around 2k :(

heard on the radio today that a stolen white skyline was in a cop chase that ended in a crash?

Yep, that may be the one.

Police contacted the new owner, asked for pictures to 100% identify thats it the one... just waiting on the phone call to confirm... sigh i hope there isnt too much damage..

Not surprised they crashed it.. probably didnt realise or didnt know how to handle a car with a two way and side slid it into a pole or something....

Sorry to hear mate, makes me cringe to hear this every time a Skyline is stolen - these lowlifes need to be KILLED slowly friggin a%%holes.. How many of u got an in-car-GPS system which sends a sms to you when the car is moved.. I'm getting one ASAP. Most likely a tow-truck job, these bastards I'm sure wont go to lengths to disable the GPS, they'll just load the car up and flee..

Damn ya'll hope this prick didn't do to much damage to the car, if its written off, then maybe we can do a fundraiser/ cruise to get the rightfull owner back in a skyline, say $50 from everyone on the cruise thats just an idea.

Who else is up for that and to start ideas on the situation.

are you high man, i aint got $50 to give to some one to buy a new car, he should have had insurance.

sure it sucks but them the brakes,

i reckon the 2 way would have been a bit of a suprise for him, specially in a get chase

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
