Hi guys.. Woke up to go to work this morning only to look out the window to see that my car wasn't parked on the drive way(in my car port with 3 other cars) where I left it last night at 10:30..

Someone has stolen it between the hours of 1am and 6am this morning from Helensvale.. Please keep an eye out for it.

It's a 1997 S2 Dark Blue GTST, pretty much stock aside from an XForce 3.5" cannon exhaust. it has P1 Buddy racing rims (18")

Number Plates : 713 KXR

If you see it or hear anything about it please call the Police or myself on: 0449 009 943 - My name is Will

Whilst I was on the phone to my insurance company the lady i was speaking with said her collegue was on the phone to another person who had their skyline stolen this morning also from Southport.

I would not want to own a skyline down in the goldy at the moment.

that is the 5 th one i have heard in past 2 weeks. There MUST be some kind of op going on down there.

I will keep an eye out for it mate.

Good thing you were insured though, so many are not doing that. for the sake of a few hundred $$ you need to insure it.

God I miss my car.

Thanks 04SHOW for posting it on boost, much appreciated mate.

It's been 3 weeks now and I still haven't heard anything from the police.. Hope is well and truly fading.

A couple of weeks ago whilst the feeling of losing this was fresh in my head I was thinking of getting anything BUT a skyline after these thieves have totally put me off owning one, I looked through everything from an Rx-7,8, supra, silvia, 350z, wrx, evo.. and after a week of trying to convince myself to get something else I have decided to get a 34. Ha.

With some serious killswitch/alarm/immobilizer/gps/spotlights/baseball bat+one eye open at all times action to protect it.

I love skylines.

Thank you all for keeping an eye out.

This beautiful 34 is definitely something that can cheer me up.

Im trying to work out what that badge on the back right of the boot is, anyone?

your money mate. if you look hard enough you can find much cheaper 34s in the same or near condition.

i helped a mate get a 98 34 GT-T 146ks, 3k full 350z style leather interior, fmic,bov,boost t,volk racing 17',Full Kakimoto exhaust, always serviced by gavin woods. same owner for 6 years and just all around mint.

12k no shit. i know ks were a bit higher than what you are looking at but thats an example of whats possible.

good luck mate !

That's a GT-R badge on the back. Got a fake GT-R front end as well (which I actually have no problem with, just the badges.)

But as 045HOW said, if you're willing to wait a little there are some REAL cheap examples in great nick floating around. I paid $10.5k for my 34 with 140,000 on the clock. Teins with EDFC and a CES Racing turbo back exhaust were part o the package as well.

    • 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/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
    • Yeah, I guess its pretty easy to get to if this doesn't work. Just wait till next oil change and pull it out. I am going to have to do the oil pan gasket soon and thought I'd just replace it while I was there.  Thanks
    • All that matters is you're safe and you were able to type that post. Hopefully heaps of parts you can recover for the next shell.
