I consider mysely very lucky, at 6pm on sunday the police came round and gave me the good news!

my car was recovered.

Minus

Intercooler, BOV, boost guage, boost controller, Infact about 15 items missing all adding up to roughly $3000

Plus there is some minor damage.

but its all repairable.

Nedless to say the car is getting fitted with sattalite tracking, the worlds biggest alarm system and there is now a security camera in my carport. and i am taking the ECU out of the car every single time i am not in it.

they didnt catch the little theives who stole it but they were seen dumping the car and they were about 14-15 years old.

Nic lives in the ghetto that's why.

Nic - give us a buzz I've been workin on some tricks when it comes to security.. been fully thinkin bout it since your car got taken.

Also before you run out and grab a quik trac or whatever talk to me also :)

Good to hear it's back tho. May as well strip the engine and go the rb30 eh ? :)

Where was it found? Great to hear you got it back

it was found less than 1 km from where it was stolen, but they put 100 ks on it.

yeah they stole my kik ass stereo but get this

the little fu#kers stole the head unit but not the loom and destroyed the dash in the process. so now the stereo is worthless to them and they ruined the dash.

They also took my GRID electronic boost controller that was worth $800+ but they didnt take the solonoid that controlls boost!

they got in by bending out the rear door frame rendering the door fuc#ed.

the engine is fine did a leakdown test and a compression test and its ok. the clutch is ruined. but everything else mechanical is fine.

i will get it back on the road and it will be just like it was. but its going to take time and money.

From now on it has hidden security cameras on it, 120DB alarm, AND NO ECU!

Good to hear you have it back mate!!!

I have put a decend alarm in mine and two nice little screamers, 1 under the dash, 1 in the boot 140db rated I think so the little F***ers will get a nose bleed before they get anything out of my car

again nice to see you got it back

some fusion job, around 500 bucks installed. black loom 4pt imobiliser, shokc sensors. extra 2 screamers in the cabin hidden under the dash, got an extra pin switch too for the bonnet (bonnet pins so no latch). i used to install car audio and if they can take the pain inside the car while they **** around then then they semi deserve it, at least i know it will cause some pain ahhah

insurance are giving me money back too, not sure how much though yet

another idea i played with in my last car that works good that i might do to the ceffy is hide a heap of cheap ass jaycar strobe lights through it, worked for my last car.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
