Thanks for any help, it's appreciated.

Cars been seen joyriding all weekend yet no one can catch it! Police haven't seen it yet either.

I spent 2 years working on this car and just getting it right and then someone comes and just takes it, it had 80km left on it's run-in period and was booked in today (Monday) for it's full tune.

Not sure if they'll strip it or burn it but I've put together a mod list in case anyone starts seeing my parts pop out;

RB25/30 w. CP and SPOOL forged internals

Tomei 260 degree Poncams

Plazmaman Plenum

Garrett 3076 w. 82 rear T3

6boost Highmount

Sard 550cc Injectors

TRUST oil cooler kit

Greddy Frontmount with custom piping

RSR 4 door exhaust

Defi Link Advance Gauges (Oil, Water, Oil Pressure and Boost)

Turbosmart e-boost street

Vipec ECU

Can't remember the brand of coilies I had on it but they were silver and blue...... haha

Driftworks camber arms, tie rods etc... for front and rear

Nismo 1.5way

East Bear Recliners

These are the main things I can think of right now. I doubt whether these guys are smart enough to sell it all or whatever but you know it's worth it to keep an eye out.

Cheers

I will keep an eye out for it. Got any pics? It is easy to replace number plates.

Also, chasing some data here...

Is it fitted with an Immobiliser?

Is it fitted with an Alarm?

Do you know how the car was stolen? (Keys stolen/ Hot wired)?

Edited by Eps

Are you saying people you know have seen it being driven around?? That's gotta suck...

If I see it I'll def keep it in sight and have the police on the phone mate.

Where was it last seen?

And yep, photo would be handy..

The car was fitted with an immobiliser and alarm but they've got my keys. I was pulling it out of my workshop when I got out to lock the gate behind me. I left the car running like I have for the past 4 years as I'm less than 10mtrs away from it, but as soon as I had my back turned a VN or VP Commodore pulled up a dude jumped out and ran into my car. I turned around to seeing him shut the door and then they both just sped off.

I wish I would have just turned it off and taken the keys out but I was letting it idle to warm up a bit and I've done this 100,000 times before and nothing has ever happened. No ones ever even slowed down. Police think they've been watching me and my car though which is why they've done it, but I mean why thrash it wouldn't you have gotten it off the road and stripped it down if you knew what was in it?

Anyway here's a pic:

Yeah my mates have been in a chase with it but it keeps losing them. It was on it's run in tune with low boost so it's not exactly the fastest thing on the road right now, most of us only have 4wds so it's outrunning us no matter what we try. Best thing we have going for us is that we can hit it and get it off the road in order to get the assholes. At this point in time I'd rather have a dent in it than see them hurt it and ruin all the work I've poured into it.

It was last seen off Connolly Dr in Merriwa. It's movements seem to be mainly from;

Wangara to Ocean Reef Rd, Lenore Dr, Caporn, Pinjar Rd, Joondalup Dr, Wanneroo Rd, Hester Ave.

It's been spotted travelling these roads more than once so they're in the general area.

Thanks for everyones help.

Wow that is probably one of the best looking R34 sedan's I've seen in a long time. Really sucks what some people would do. confused.gif

I guess the big question is.. do you have full comprehensive? And if so, would it be covered if you left the car on?

Ballsy little fkrs aren't they... 1 for taking it in the first place and 2 for continuing to drive it for all to see...

I honestly hope I see it. It -really- shits me this kind I thing.

I guess the thing is not to 'chase' them. Just hang back and follow. They'll stop and get out eventually.

  • 1 month later...

Still on the run? it's been 3 months or something hasnt it?

I'll keep an eye out, it's fairly distinctive.

Yeah I think it's still out there hey. I had a phone call from someone saying they seen it Quinns last week. f**king annoying that the police still haven't caught it.

Farken serious?

How does someone manage to steal the car and then use it for their own for 3 months without getting caught.. Jesus.

At least you know it's still in working order

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
