Aggravated robbery at Hawker shops

Release Date: Wednesday, June 08 2011, 09:50 AM

ACT Policing is seeking witnesses to an aggravated robbery in which a car was stolen at Hawker shops last night (Tuesday, June 7).

About 11.40pm two men parked in Hawker Place—behind a white Holden Commodore—to use an automatic teller machine. There were three men standing outside the Commodore and a woman in the driver’s seat.

The owner of the car returned to his vehicle when he saw one of the men standing near his car, which had the keys in the ignition and engine running. An altercation occurred between the victim and male offender and the victim was punched in the face. The offender then got into the victim’s vehicle, a white Nissan Skyline and drove off onto Springvale Drive towards Coulter Drive.

The first offender is described as male, wearing a white jumper and blue Adidas tracksuit pants with white stripes.

The second offender is described as male, with blond hair, pale skin and wearing a black jumper with green tracksuit pants.

The third offender is described as male, chubby with a kiwi accent, wearing a grey hooded jumper and jeans.

The female driver of the Commodore had dark-coloured hair.

Anyone who may be able to assist police with the investigation are asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or via the Crime Stoppers website on www.act.crimestoppers.com.au. Information can be provided anonymously.

why no car details? you think they would say an 88 or r33 or GTR or something to make it stand out. hopefully its just a bashed up R31, cos i know i wouldnt be walking away from anything else at midnight in hawker with the keys in the ignition.....

It says 2 guys so maybe he left his mate in the car while he went to the ATM? Surely you wouldn't both get out and leave it running when you've parked behind a Commodore with 3 guys loitering next to it.

all seems a bit silly to me. leaving the car running... his passenger just getting out to let them take it.. and it seems no one got the plates for the commodore either.

Yeah, I wouldn't have stopped there. Go to another ATM! I often stop off late at night to chuck things in a post box.... occasionly there's someone there using the public phones(which I figure is weird enough in itself at 12.30am)... so I just don't stop. I go to another post box. Who knows if they're some junkie?? The shops are completely deserted so I'm not gonna risk it.

Wow, someone using forethought in Canberra :P.

*edit* removed a sentence after receiving a knock on the door from a cop :P.

It was a R34. My mate finished work at kfc and we were just chilling out in the car park when this happened, we thought that they are racing as they took off very quick but few minutes later when the cops turned up and asked questions to us then we knew the whole story. And unfortunately we couldn't do anything :(

i hope he gets his car back soon

      How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
