I doubt you will see it again it took 5 years for my brothers gtst to turn up and in ended up in Adelaide when some poor bugger tried to register it. Police called my bro and he called insurance who didn't care anymore and I'm sure it wasn't the guy trying to register its fault but buyer beware and he clearly didn't do his checks and it still amuses me the insurance company had no interest in recovering it even though they had paid the policy out. Moral to story, thieves steak car wait a few years then they can own it lol!

everyone car was found half stripped in ambervale - coppers said they are going to tow it back and give me a call back in a couple of days

Good result in the end mate hopefully nothing is damaged too much!!

How do you feel??

so close to ur home yet so far.. hopefully the cops found the people red handed with the car as it was.

unfortunately for you being half stripped the cost to replace it all may outweigh the policy and the car ends up written off :(

Because your not going to get new things like engines and seats etc so really I wouldn't know if id want it back

Yes, can you tell us more as news filters through please?

And for the sake of other SAUers here, is there anything you would have done differently to protect her?

I know the following is 'after the horse has bolted' but SAU Execs have organised a Tech Night in November to be held at Carbon Car Systems.

Found at a house - coppers had a search warrant for the place, tow it back to some police facility for forensics

Will keep you guys updated as news comes in my dads going to go and see if he can inspect it today and sus out the damage.

Invest in GPS tracking / more of a premium alarm...

That is great they found it! Hope the missing parts haven't gone far.

In regards to Terrys post:

Any car can be stolen, you can only slow them down unfortunately. Alarm, tracker, club lock, etc. (This means installed properly)

However (sorry) parking a performance car at a train station is asking for trouble. Not to mention Campbelltown is in the top 10 suburbs for theft...

Not having a go just saying probably not best idea. I live 10 min from a suburb with a higher theft rate :( so I am pretty paranoid about where I leave her and not to have any regular patterns.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
