What sort of theif would want a rotary though? It's not like you can take parts out of the engine, it's hard to pass them off, panels, whatever of the car, there's not many rx-7s around, it seems so stupid if they were trying to make a quid out of it unless they plan on reselling it whole.

how many rx-7s are there in aus, not many, and how many are twin turbo, with 10 injectors, and a rebic, it's f**ked, nobody has this setup, nobody would do it this way, i hope they try and sell it on carsales or something

yeah forgot to mention, lost my cd player, some cds, a black aesthetics jumper, a cap, and a street directory. Not that i care about those things compared to the car...

I called up the Constable today, he's going to try and get the footage, hopefully we can get a face to this guy.

**** that I feel for ya man that's just ****ed up.

I hope ya get it back or atleast if you can't have it back the car kills the thief.

Just out of interest did anyone know you were going to park it there? I mean ... it DOES sound like they were really lucky or knew/heard it was a tough car.

Still.. either way it's ****ed up.

Good luck.

nah no one knew, it was spur of the moment out of boredom

The ONLY thing i can think of, is it was either, soemone who knew what they were doing and saw the bride seats, so they'd be up with the jap performance scene, or, some stupid punk who wanted a joyride (hopefully so they just left it somewhere)

but then you think, when they leave it somewhere, the windows smashed (or it looks like it's down) and another theif comes along, goes in a big cycle...

insurance wasn't worth it, 3rd party fire and theft only pays out crap all, and comprehensive, when you look at both in the big picture:

premium+excess+loss of no claim bonus next time=the shit all payout they give you cause they won't insure it for what it's worth

Alright, I'll go through this once more.

I don't want any comments on the car, it doesn't matter anymore, I just want people to see what it looks like, and more importantly what the parts look like, and keep an eye out.

Especially look out for these parts as they are really quite rare, Greddy rebic injector controller, the car will not run without this, 12at 750cc injectors, Twin TD05-16G turbos, Pivot Turbo timer, Pivot digital rev meter and shift light, Twin bride brix adjustable seats, Now, honestly the car won't run almost at all if basically anything is tampered with, if the rebic settings are changed it won't run. So probably mostly keep a look out for the parts.

Here's the rebic, there are models 1-4, now the one i have, there is very few in australia if any.

The settings on this are WRONG, they need to be, first dial on full, second on 3k rpm, third on 0.1 boost, if anyone finds my car and calls the police, make sure the settings are on these.

The footage from the carpark came back, and the guys face was too blurry to see anything so basically we've got nothing from there, he got out by sitting on the tail of another car and leaving before the gate closed.

Anyone in the area of Liverpool and surrounding suburbs keep their eyes peeled. Especially for parts. There's only a pretty small market for these things.

Once again, here's all the information;

It's a 2 seater, build 1989. It has the rear pods.

VIN/Chassis number, 6U90000FC3S203900

Engine number, E027020

odo reading, around 51000kms

tyres, 205/60R15, steel wheels, SNOW TYRES, BRIDGESTONE BLIZZAR (or something)

Bride Brix seats, 2, driver and passenger

Large visible exhaust,

It is a japanese import model Savanna with the smaller tailights, number plates do not fit without bending.

it also has 2 large and reasonably deep scratches down the left side.

Other things inside the car where, 3 burned cds, a silver Sony CD player, a black Aesthetics jumper, a black cap, and a street directory of sydney, as well as a Billabong bag.

It's rego plates are ARX-73X.

It's blaze red, and still has standard steel wheels with snow tyres, has a aftermarket spoiler, and is a series 5 though the front bar looks a little different.

It was stolen from Liverpool westfield shopping centre on the top floor today 6th January 2005 at around quarter to 4pm. The drivers passenger side window was smashed and the ignition ripped out, as i found it on the ground.

Once again, here are my numbers:

0417261902

44763566

I suppose you can't post pics of the guy at all?

Well, no i don't have the footage, and like i said it was blurry, you really can't see anything, the police said they couldn't use it so i doubt it'd be any help if i asked for it.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
