STOLEN: 1996 Skyline R33 GTS (Non-Turbo Black)

Hi all,

Please keep your eyes out for the car below and please call the police if you happen to spot it! Any help or information would be much appreciated.

My 1996 Nissan Skyline R33 GTS (non-turbo) was stolen from Ripponlea/Elsternwick on Saturday night or early Sunday morning (3rd/4th September). It was parked near Ripponlea railway station.

Details:

Sucks to hear...

Did it have an Alarm / Immobiliser?

You actually left a Skyline at a train station car park overnight?

Unfortunately no alarm or immobiliser at the time..

I had just got the car back from the mechanic on Thursday & it was parked out the front of my house for two nights, my place happens to be nearby the train station.

Thanks for your help guys.

Cheers.

Well gotta narrow down if all these cars getting stolen have an alarm or not, at the very least people stumble across topics like this and think "Damn, I really need to install some security devices in my car" instead of just assuming she'll be right.

Test it out aus drift, some of the eBay trackers have shitty reception / won't get signal in a garage or underground carpark.

Not to discourage their use but a lot of thieves are using gps jammers these days which are even cheaper than the gps trackers

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
