At least they took it before you spent the money at revzilla..

Too soon?

Never too soon.

Stolen from underground carpark in Boronia

Much like Ric's Skyline

how do u steal a bike?

srs

besides picking it up and chucking it on a ute

This is pretty much what they do.

I had a disc lock on it with an alarm and it has a steering lock too.

They would have had to remove the front wheel and lifted it up / dragged it out of there and wheeled up onto a ute or something.

Guessing they nicked it for parts.

Yes I'm insured.

Pull up at servo... Car in front is just past the pump, looks like they're leaving.. Starts to reverse past the pump towards me... I beep to notify them of my presence, as if it wasn't obvious enough already.... Continues to reverse until our bars become one.... Then does a runner...

Chased for about 5 minutes... Not an easy task keeping up with a ba falcon in am excel but I held my own. Lost them eventually.

Now they just better hope I don't see them again. 450mm shifter is hanging to tighten some nuts

Revzilla sell nuts

Did you get rego? Servo would have it on camera...make the fker give you a new bumper even if it's not damaged

My neighbour spotted 3 motorbikes hanging around our driveway at around 1pm today and some old guy talking on his phone in the carpark. Gotta be then. Fking flamin mongrel motorcyclists...so much for being something of a community.

The disc lock on the bike had an ear piercing alarm so I don't know how they pulled that off without anyone hearing. Must have been no one home in the complex.

So I have a time and a description, there's shops on the streets all near me so prolly CCTV that would have got three bikes riding along...I have a screwdriver left behind that could be finger printed by the cops if they decide to do some detective work, but let's face it they prolly won't bother over a theft :(

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.

    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
