Hi guys,

I had my beautiful R34 GT-T stolen from Newington overnight. Silver coupe with dark tinted windows, spoiler and R34 GTR wheels - rego plate MWW-380. Car was parked on the street.

Had a neighbour say he heard the car start up around 10:30 - 11.30 last night, found out she was missing when i went to leave for work this morning at 9am

If anyone spots her or hears something, I'd love to hear from you!

Thanks guys,

Mick

Yes I'm absolutely shattered. Worst part is, that this was basically my dream/perfect car - it was exactly what I wanted. There's not that many RWD Turbo coupes in this price range that I can replace her with. If insurance comes through smoothly, my payout will still put me behind. It's like I'm back to square one!

I'll inquire about cctv, but I don't like my chances. I just can't believe that this happened in Newington.

When me and tats were living in blaxland ave newington, the flat next door to ours was broken into and our garage was broken into another night as well.

It's a fantastic area but unfortunately seems to being easy to plunder at the moment :(

Wow, that sucks mate..

I see you time to time on Hill road, when communiting to work (I work at Newington)

I'll keep my eyes opened. Hope it's found in one piece.

Suprised this happened in an area like that though.

Outsiders assume Newington ppl own nice things Dave.

Yeah we get thefts up here in the lower Mtns and often those who get caught are not locals.

Terry, there have been a lot of trailers going missing in the last 2 weeks from Winmalee, Springwood, Faulconbridge. At least 10 that I've heard about.

People are too trusting.

I'm trying not to stereotype, but apologies If anyone is offended.

Newington is 15 mins from Auburn, Villawood det centre, Silverwater gaol etc etc. It is an affluent area and still is, but there are also some not nice parts too.

Yeah, my landlord took me for a drive around the area to see if someone had just gone for a joyride/burnouts and then dumped it... Silverwater, Olympic Park, back of Rydalmere... there's lots of areas close by that have 'shady' characteristics.

As owning my own garage isn't really going to be viable for the next few years (regarding property) the next car ( :'( ) will definitely have some immobilizers/killswitches.

I'm still hoping it will turn up without damage, but at the same time i'm prepared to accept that she's headed to the middle east in bits and pieces. Not the way i wanted her to go!

Just keep an eye out for any parts for sale etc too... Sorry to hear its been taken mate, i would be on a war path if someone touched my 34 :domokun:

You're not stereotyping, you're presenting observations.

There's a difference between "all people from X are like Y" and "there is a higher occurrence of X type of people that happen to be from Y than area Z"

:P

    • 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.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
