If anyone has any ideas on how to publish this so only the correct ppl can view it , ie give thier full details , vin numbers , lic number, copy of licsense or something i will consider it , i would hate for any of us proud owners have this happen to them ..

This is serious , i dont want this info out there in full public view..

any ideas would be great..

It's easy. Freedom of information. Publish how they did it and i guarantee you by freeing the information more people will be able to protect their cars. Particularly in a skyline forum.

If someone really wants to steal a car they will do so with or without your info. Ever heard of a brick? :cheers:

Man, you must be over the moon to get her back!!!!

After 3 weeks I guess you must have been feeling like it was gone for good, so congrats for getting it back, it is a pitty you didn't catch them first but hey Karma is a bitch and they will get theirs, just a shame you can't give your ROTTY another chance at them!

I do think it is a good idea to post up how they got away with your car, as you said you had a full security system on it, and they still took it.

I, like most other Skyline owners value my car much more than it's monitary value and would be very appreciative for any info on how to protect it more than just the mandatory alarm and immob.

oh well, great to hear you got it back in one piece!!!!

now that has to be the happiest ending ever for a story!! im so glad you got your pride and joy back dude!! it musta been hell wat youve been through for the last 3 weeks. i was sick to my stomach bout the theft, its really unforgivable. this story was a real rollercoaster ride of emotions!! lol. When you find the person/people who did this, tie him/them up, put them in the boot of your car and drive them down south so all us SAU members down here can give them a good arse kicking for wat they have done!! :)

Just because they had the car for 2 weeks doesnt mean they were driving it around,

Based on the amount of sightings the car had over the past couple of weeks I'm pretty sure they were driving it around.

Well the first thing i can safely say to ANYONE that has a car alarm fitted is :

Where the siren is there will be a few screws holding a top and bottom piece together , by unscrewing those two screws and seperating it u will notice that there is only two wires going to the speaker part of it , by pulling these it is SHUT UP very quickly , so my fix is to put it back together with 1 way security screws and epoxy resin the holes so it cant be opened ever again.. This should give some budding car thieves a few loud unwanted moments....

there will be more...

Also the GTR had NO significant damage , they left all my cd's receipts and even change in the console , stereo , apexi rev speed meter , hks fcon v , boost gauge etc.. were all left in the original condition , the car had travelled approximately 125klm according to my calculations (logbook)..

So it all seems to be in good nick and im stoked to have her back...

Maty.

    • Yep, I was supprised. Its all about flow rather then housing size.  Doing G35-900 Vs ATR45SS-1 Next. 62mm V 61mm. 
    • Of course sometimes you cannot go with the cheaper alternative but I try to weigh it up for the application - am I competing or am I going to the track ten times p/yr. As long as there’s enough information out there to back the cheaper alternative as a good option I’ll go for that.   I’m a bit of a bastard though as it’s my job to reduce costs, particularly on non income generating assets. EUR 500 saved for the diff + EUR 1,000 saved on BC racing over Bilstein and then say EUR 300 versus EUR 600 on an off brand windscreen versus OEM (for example) soon accumulates. I mean, I’m probably gonna put the car in the ditch anyway. Absolutely do not take this as a justification for always buying cheap shitty parts, just a rationale for doing your research and considering what’s necessary for your application.    
    • All the above effort, time, swapping out parts in the dark (i.e. no O2 data). You're literally running in the dark.
    • Looks like both of my cars have pressure switch issues. The R32 GTR has 18 flashes on the ATTESSA controller which is "ETS pressure switch circuit". The 4WD light is intermittent, and often just restarting the car clears it. There is an $300 replacement option https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/285675135148?itmmeta=01HXN3YKRGKQ08GRZ5KFKKZWJT&hash=item428390a0ac:g:6CcAAOSwWxBltMEG so if it becomes a permanent issue and I can confirm that the switch is the issue, i have a solution. The NM35 is reporting C1208, and disconnecting the switch causes the 4WD light to go away. Translating from the Japanese shop manual "when the pressure is reduced to 2.6MPa (377 psi) or less: conduction occurs when the pressure increases to 3.8MPa (550 psi) or less: conduction is present. Reference: • Immediately after the E-TS actuator motor stops, the pressure inside the accumulator is high and there is no continuity." Not sure how good the translation is but from what i can deduce this means the switch is normally closed (NC) and as the pressure builds from 0 to 550 psi the switch stays closed, then opens and 550 psi. As the pressure drops from 550 psi to 377 psi the switch stays open then closes again at 377 psi. Is that how these things work? These pressures are a lot higher than the R32 ("control pressure 0-228 psi") but i'm hoping i can find a generic switch (like they've done for the R32) to use as a replacement. Maybe something like https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/355586397452?epid=1676016964&itmmeta=01HXN534AF22ACTG6TGDDQGEQ7&hash=item52ca99d50c:g:mAEAAOSw8ilmBcMh&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA8LtWdNlWHgyJ%2F3cbw25S2A1lde3qBi3fJii4T3lQavCz4kpqiD42SmBa4FocMvXCjcxiowHjb8vZ8%2BWxc53BkHv781tkStSnCDaenfGKC3bIp0keK20dfsn9LoPa3TfqaEmAydqqyKobgTdXsGGzsl%2BRjOVGuD8OIpOv%2B0wMl7aUtHg0iJtojbtzA%2BRS8Xfm8Ufjuvz4niwrqglAXFUbkL6J%2FGuHPeeECZhLBBN3iNM1Swl94Fv5zE95YK%2B5O6dxDN1ySNOjdMxkA8yaprbuwRHFQv1nlGh%2FWjekj6EUFR2%2FO4HTsoKtSAkY0Mj1w1uf1w%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR6zFjKXtYw but with a lower close pressure, and thread adapter if required. Am i dreaming?
