I'd be checking out VL and Skyline related workshops in your local area. Check if the guys at the shopping centre saw any tow trucks coming in. Something as big as that MUST be on one of their cameras that monitor the front entrances etc.

Also, during compliance they would have taken down your engine code etc, grab all that coz it might be helpful in finding it.

Guys, I can't believe this is happening.

I'm so sorry to hear that the car was stolen, but even as a shell at least you have your baby back.

Just a few things that I suggest:

1. If parking on street, always park where there is foot traffic, and car traffic

2. If parking on street, choose a spot that is visible AND where a tow truck cannot get into

3. Try and spot the money for a car park - better ten bucks here and there rather than lose your car.

Regards are careful, people

Your Motec would have had a serial number, the crunts that stole your gear knew your car and have access to a workshop/ tow truck.

This sort of thing is seriously fu{ked up.

Make sure you come see me for a paging alarm Steve, that way you can kill them yourself if they try it again.

I NEVER leave my car for longer than 1/2 an hour alone, and only in busy carparks during the day. If i go out i go with some one else or take the wifes lancer. Not worth the heart ache. I feel for you man good luck with the rebuild.

i regard people that steal cars as the lowest life form, there scum, i hope you find these people and they are charged and locked up because they dont deserve to be living with in the community.

Congrates you got the shell back and good luck to you in building your future monster.

As alot of people have said got down all the numbers your can engine numbers and others.

Also contact the shopping center sercuity, police and vic roads about it being stolen.

    • Hi guys, I have a 2005 V35 skyline with the vq35de.  It is a drift car and has been stripped, its now running a standalone ECU and a body harness. Dash everything has been changed to a digital dash controlled by ecu.  The vq35de has been great, very reliable but wanting more HP atm the 35de is making 228rwhp. I'd like to be making about 350rwhp. From my research it looks like a vq25det lightly modified could be a good engine to swap in. I understand the CD trans will bolt up right to the vq25det with a 35de sump used.  My only issue is a wiring harness/ecu to control the vq25det, from what i've found the ecu is a lot different to the vq35de so my plugin for the 35de will not work. Is there any potential to use the vq35de wiring harness and modify as necessary to retain the plugin ecu?  Keen to hear what you guys think, or am I best off to chuck on a cheap turbo kit on the 35de and see how long it lasts.   
    • Oh sorry Justin! I was racking my brain trying to remember names, not sure why I associated “Adam” with 7tune! I’m good, been away from Skylines for over a decade, got family and kids now. Just getting back into owning a 32 but it’s a whole different world now… tax is higher and tech is better.
    • Who's Adam? Hehe 😁All good mate, it's Justin. Been good! And you? The HCR32 is looking sweet by the way! Love the very neat Nav install.  I would love to get one but I'm at a crossroads right now and can't commit to another car. 
    • Wtf. $1000 for knockoffs? Tell em they’re dreeeeamin!
    • zomfg @Rezz! How've you been Adam?? Haha sadly yes it's going up for sale, just tidying it up a bit and modding it ever so slightly so I can still drive it to SAU events.
