if I thought it would work it would be worth while

but you know that theives have more rights then the victims these days and they could turn around and sue you

(If they try to sue) Nah mate, we were never in the area, we were all at a friend's house playing poker.

geez sorry to hear that mate, but i find it so hard to believe everytime i hear about someones car/ car stereo system being stolen so one seems to see anything... and seeing as u said around 4pm it wouldnt of been hard for someone to see someone break a window (let alone hear it). Were there many cars parked around yours or was it a pretty empty time of day (i wouldnt know anything about that shopping centre)?

I hope u get it back mate.

you poor bastard. Crimes against cars are worse than crimes against children...cars can't fight back at all.

I hate it when people say "you shouldn't have parked there without full comprehensive insurance, a 6 way immobiliser and satellite tracking" should be able to park your car with the windows down and keys in ignition (in a perfect world).

Hope they find it and the dirty lowlife who stole it. Good luck dude

That sucks. I feel for you, it has to be one of the most depressing things to happen to you. Saving up money, EARNING your car, to have it stolen from you from some pitiless low life, especially when the car came straight from the mechanic

I hope the thief dies a slow painful death.

Good luck to everything going well I hope your car is in one peice.

Update:

I was informed of some new information today from a member of a forum.

Basically what Rugal has told me is he saw it on Fourth Avenue in Austral. At around 6-7 on thursday the 6th.

The guy whom i might have seen as well at the car park, was a australian looking guy, mid 20s/30s and had a beard.

There was a guy with a utes bonnet open a few cars up from mine who looked like this when i last saw it but i payed no attention to him.

I'm at home now on the south coast.

and I just called Liverpool police station, they said an informant had located the car, though the report wasn't finished, so they couldn't give me any information, and i have to wait till the constable who did my report gets back on monday.

So as of now i have no idea of what condition it is in.

are you for real???

you have to wait till monday???

and what they mean by located? do they have the car in their possesion or is it sitting in an alleyway?

that's the thing, i don't know, that's all the information they gave me

right now i'm just going to listen to the police radio incase i hear something

that's the thing, i don't know, that's all the information they gave me

right now i'm just going to listen to the police radio incase i hear something

Id ring em back and demand that they tell you if they have found it or not.... man u shouldnt have to wait for some seargent to verify it.

    • I am getting the same issue. Did you resolve it? I just got it after installing my new super coppermix and literally the same issue, new fork, new 18mm carrier, release bearing that came with the kit and replicated the exact same sound. 
    • If you like - I have the STL files so I can email em. There's a couple of gotchas (i.e the holes are not threaded so you might need/will need) to utilize some M3 melt-in threads for some of the points. However if you want to be super accurate, and are willing to remove your calipers and your SHOCKS it's a really good tool. You also might need to scale the part that measures the tyre width a bit wider. It defaults to a 7.5in tyre and I mean who is running that. Luckily with the magic of CAD this is very easy to rescale.
    • jeebus. glad you weren't under it while performing the stunt. Also thanks for the link to the wheel measurer, exactly what I needed
    • In the older stuff there were very significant differences 2wd to 4wd, for example Stagea had strut front end for 2wd and double wishbone for 4wd so it was not minor to swap. From poking around the 2wd v37, it *looks* like it might be more possible; some of the parts specifically have "2wd" stamped on them which suggests the platforms are more similar. You'd still want to start with a 4wd half cut to swap stuff from though. I'd suggest if you don't have a tune on the ECU you don't really need one on the trans either. Throttle mapping is in the ECU side (and you can always use a Roar Pedal if you want the throttle to actually respond to your foot), and really if you are happy with the stock power you probably accept the stock trans behaviour too....its all made to be "sporty" not racey.
    • So, updates. I have not washed the car since it came back from Tassie. I've driven it around a bit but not got around to actually sorting it out. I DID raise it because I cracked the rear bar leaving a hotel which was very distressing. Interestingly, the car drives more compliant now that it's raised a fair bit (5mm front, 15mm rear). Also noticed that my FR height was 10mm lower than FL. So that's now sorted out, too. I also bought this and had it printed: https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/1576422240/wheel-and-tire-fitment-tool-universal?ref=shop_home_feat_1&dd=1&logging_key=08f604d9fa4cc383550ba985e6ac85cd5cac7fbb%3A1576422240 Now, if I was smart I would have taken my brake calipers off to actually use this correctly but it was evident enough to me that in the region where the caliper was... there was nothing to hit suspension/guard/arm wise. So I'm going with "it'll be fine" after using the tool to hopefully very precisely measure the wheel clearance. Also while doing this, I had the very VERY bad idea of jacking one of the wheels/suspension arms up while the rest of the car was on jack stands. I did this to see how the arm would travel. This all was well and good until the car slid off the stands and went through a fence. So don't do that. Incredibly nobody was hurt and there was only minor damage to the rear bumper as the car didn't have far to slide, and had 3-4 wheels on it. The only damage turned out to be the fence itself which was easy to fix, and a little bit of damage to the fibreglass rear bumper trim. I had already planned to try a touch up paint kit to fix the time I drove into my garage door to see if it'd help in the interim before I get it fixed properly. I used the Dr Colorchip kit after looking online and seeing everyone talking about it. Yes it's made for chips and not huge broken missing pieces and I'll be 500% recommending it for stone chips after using it for stupid things like me. This took about ... 10 minutes and looking at the half assed photo the 30 second job I did on the bumper corner was almost perfect just by using the tiny little brush and painting it in. The sealact stuff to remove over-painting is really useful, so if/when I do it again I'll likely slather the touch up paint well over it and then clean it up with the cleaning solution. The wheels should arrive in a couple of weeks. I am still kinda confident after doing a stupid amount of measuring (and borrowing a set of 18x10.5+15) that they will not fit because I overlooked something, somehow and flew too close to the sun. ALSO R34 GTR guard liners do not fit on a GTT. I bought the undertray brake duct guides and had the wonderful problem of them not fitting my intake, my oil cooler and the liners themselves were even worse. Attempting to fit them won't work in general - You would have to cut them up as another poster mentioned as the bodywork is different on the GTT. At least I can try to resell them. So instead of cutting those up, I cut up my old already-cut-up GTT liners and extended them by using some PP plastic and drilling some 8mm holes for some nissan clips for the 'extra' bit. Because I was happy to cut them I was able to mount them pretty damn forward so I now have some semblance of guard liners, and the brake vents seal the bumper from the bottom. It sort-of-looks like this, to give some idea - If you look at the GTR and then the GTT this is when I realised that I needed to seriously measure as the inside of the rim area is entirely, entirely, entirely different and could not take any internet measurements for granted.
