Hey guys just a heads up that another skyline has been stolen this week. It was a r33 white coupe, rear spoiler removed with black tape over holes, rebuilt engine, fmic, in need of a paint job, but something that really set the car apart from the rest was all the work done to the interior from new seats, steering wheel, dash the lot, black/blue with Creme suede. It was taken from Keillor downs shopping centre

Rob, would that have been enough room for a tow truck to grab your car where it was parked?

seems like cars are being taken by this method lately

Wasn't mine bud and I'm not sure tbh but now that you mentioned that's a scary thought how ever not easy for a towy at those shops I don't think

Probably the villella brothers. They've been stealing a shit load of cars again in the area. They stole mine over a year ago and a couple more at that time. Stole a friend of a friend's s14 and a wrx on the same day. Car will pop up around the area they steal em and drive em around like dumb dream boats.

f**k all, they are useless dream boats. These guys have been stealing cars and motorbikes for god knows how long and nothing happens to them. I punch a guys mirror off his car after swerving at me trying to knock me off my motorbike and the cops are at my door within the hour and i'm in court a couple months later. This guy just gets out of jail for stealing cars, they see him driving my car, they end up getting his prints from my car and no court for him. I haven't heard anything back from the cops since they told me they got the guy and that was over a year ago giving this rat more time on the street to steal people's stuff.

Yeah but there are plenty of others who won't coz the cops won't do anything about it and they will just keep stealing.................... What's more frustrating is how they are so known to the cops in the area

If there's any truth to that story it will be a matter of time before they take the wrong persons car and end up six feet under. That's if the bodies are ever found.

Nothing surprises me in the northern/north western suburbs however;)

    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
