Cant find the orginal thread.. but this is the latest update.

Our R32 GTR was stolen here is the original thread http://www.boostcruising.com/forums/index....1&t=40699&st=0&

SUCCESS - The car was the car used to hold up the westpac bank at bundall today , the thieves botched the bank robbery and took off in the GTR and dumped it close by.

Yes it was the same car as on the news , i will get a copy of the tape for you to download and have a look at the news story.

At present the car is in a police holding yard and can not be released until forensic testing has been done. I personally went to the holding yard and was totally denied any acces to even look at the car from a distance , but on channel 9 gold coast news it did show the plates and it was definately our car . On the news the car looked still in perfect condition from the outside (who knows if there is any damage yet) but the person at the holding yard told me that from what he saw the car still looked 100% .. (i hope so).. from the news it even looked like they had washed it.. lol

So as it stands we have not seen the car but we definately know this is the our car , but have not physically seen it ourselves to check the condition. The car should be ready for release on monday..

So there was 3 offenders of ethnic appearance and after having the car for a few weeks i say that they would have left thier fingerprints all over it and HOPEFULLY they are caught somewhere along the line , also being a bank robbery the cops will hopefully be taking the matter very seriously. but i have been told that if caught they are likely to get a $500 fine.. for the car theft.. (our legal system is encouraging car theft in my opinion ) , but hopefully spend some time in jail and get some hardcore anal pounding...

Im spewing one of us did not catch them first and inflict some serious injuries on these people . Through this whole ordeal we have had so much support from all of our brothers here at SA and we sincerely thank you from the bottom of our hearts!!!

Now you would think that we would have had a call from the police today saying "Your car has been found and used in a robbery". But it was a Gold Coast local who called us up who had seen a flyer we had handed out at frank st BP servo , He rang us and said "i have just seen your car on the back of a flatbed towtruck" so we rang the towies and they confirmed the car , (this is 3pm , the robbery was at opening time of the bank) and the car was dumped close to the bank in benowa or something. So its 6pm the cops still had not called so we went to the copshop to see what was going on , they did the enquiries and confirmed it.. how friggin slack is that???.. But Josh if you read this you will be rewarded for your effort mate well be in contact..cheers!!

Thanks again everyone , sorry for the long post but i will keep you updated with the news story so u can all have a look , if someone could host this vid file PM me!

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
