Hi All,

Didn't know where to post this(I'm sure admin will move it if needed)

This is a little desperate as we need to get to Phillip Island for the 7th so I thought I'd start here.

The trailer(without the car) was stolen from Gladesville at 12.30AM on the 12th. We had Security footage of a fat ugly c@#t with what looked to be a VT/VZ Commodore Wagon hooking up and driving off.
Below are pictures of the said trailer with the only difference being that it is now silver in colour with GIO livery. This is a one off custom made trailer so made with refrigeration wall's.

The trailer is a replaceable item however the 8 wheels which will only fit a Group A GMS R32 and are irreplaceable....these are the main things we are after.

Any help with recovering this would be great and a reward will be paid depending on what condition everything is in when we get it back.

So sorry to see this Craig.

If this has already been repainted, are there any other identifying markers that are easy to see?

Could there be other CCTV footage at that time within a 2Km radius of the theft? Clubs/Servos?

The only identifying marks are that its plastic refrigeration material......and the backdoor open's upwards.

How low are some people really :angry: :angry: :angry:

Will try and keep an extra eye out for the trailer and give you a hoy if see anything mate. That's all I can do (I guess).

Could be hard if it has been repainted but the photo does help.

Locked in to my brain now.

Surely this trailer will stick our like dogs balls at any motorsport event?

even after painting.

what are they going to do, leave it in the back yard?

also, CCTV good enough to get plate number on the commo?

One would think so Luke!

Maybe they were just hopeful that the car was left in the trailer, but then, what do you do with such a car that everyone knows and all the parts are bespoke?

Hopefully CCTV shows number plates.

Sorry to hear that Craig, it's been a rough suburb lately. Can't see you getting much out of gladesville station, all they did for us was write notes in their invisible notebooks then head back to the donut shop

That will just discourage Jetwreck even more. Despite the cruel world we live in there are some good people out there (including the police force) and should have some faith. Hopefully it will rerun and the wheels can be retrieved.

Was thinking the same thing about Gladesville station. Hence someone local did a be drive around for me through industrial last night.

Hey Ants,

I'm sure he won't mind me replying, the trailer was insured, however the wheels inside are not replaceable. They are GMS magnisium wheels to suit the GTRs. Can't buy any more for obvious reasons.

So the Car currently is sitting on their only set of 4, which for a race team, is a big PITA.

Please keep your eyes out :(

ahh that's pretty sure to be me, the stag has been sleeping outside because the ute is getting a full rebuild. mx-5 is my dirty boat loving neighbour's, not mine. Drop in for a beer sometime :)

the shame here is those wheels are totally unusable by anyone else in the world (unless terry knocked off the trailer :teehee:).

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
