Wholy shit - That is friggen shocking.

Even though that car looks exactly like yours, even the wheels :( Lets hope for the best. I can't believe all of that could be done over night.

One of the workers at Nut and Bolt factory has his 32 stolen last week. Same thing....burnt out and dumped at logan. Apparently a young guy driving around in a stolen purple metallic 33GTST is to blame, also I was told Police know who it is and are looking for him. Could be the same guy. He stole it from the Hyperdome.

They have his face on CCTV buying the petrol IN the car that was stolen right before the car was found burnt out. So he's f**ked if they get him. I would contact logan CIB to see if it's your car

They've either changed the front bar or it's a different car.

False. You can see the screw holes and change of paint shade from the mspec front lip that "was" on there.

Must note. Very sad for your loss mate. This is partially the reason i dont drive my car out so much anymore :(. Well that, popo and fuel.

Thanks a lot guys. Sorry, I wasn't around for a few days. Yes, that is the car, unfortunately. Had an alarm with an immobilizer but no one heard anything. I removed the mspec front lip, cuz it was a bit broken and i was going to fix it. Police came and tried to find some finger prints but they couldn't find any.

Thank you so much everyone, and special thanks to V8skylineMAN for the pictures and special effort to take care of the car.

Hey guys...

Friggen sucks having the car stolen, I know as mine got nicked last week.

Just wanted to let people know that apparently there has been a rise in skylines stolen lately. I just got off the phone with the police about it. So if you dont have secure parking I would really recomend getting a really good alarm

This is getting wayyy too close to home. And you, majority of these cars (and others) seem to be being stolen by late teens to early 20's, thrashed, then horribly mangled.

So sorry for your loss. Hope you had insurance and it is honored.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.

      Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.

      Shimmed or shimless, still solid, no hydraulic pump up stuff.
