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

    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
