Guys the reward for information leading to the retrieval of this vehicle is over $2,000....so if u see anything lookin like this car or any parts being sold that look like they may have come from this car please let us know.

Other things about the car..

*The grill is missing and u can see the blue oil cooler through it

*The passenger skirts is damaged and is held on partly by tape, so it flutters alot witht he wind

*There is a dint with some paint missing on the passenger door, near where it meets the front quarter panel, as it was hit by a clublock

*as in the pics the muffler tip is very long, very distinct. If u see any exhaust resemblingthis for sale let us know asap

*Parts of the console and vents etc are painted cusco blue

Please contact us if u see or hear anything....pass the word on

2g's could be yours.....................

I just spoke with Dave - I thought I'd found his Sil80 on Port Wakefield road - but it wasn't the one :( - VERY similar though.

He mentioned a few unique items from the car, in case anyone get offered parts for sale:

- AAR leather drivers seat (he's never seen another one before in Australia)

- dished Sparco steering wheel

- cutom intercooler piping with tons of small pieces welded together Jap drift style

- a Defi boost gauge

- 18" rear mags, 16" silver front mags.

Keep your eyes and ears open for this stuff (or hopefully the car) to turn up!!

No so to top this off Dave is left in debt

Andrew have you met him before or is this the first time?

Dave and Sean stay at my place last time they were down for an event

Dave is a nicest guy, the kinda thing you would wish nothing on!

nah mate, haven't met Dave, but he sounded like a cool guy on the phone .....

damn I hope they find the car in one piece - in fact I hope one of us spots it, follows it to a locale, call in some SAU backup, and go to work on the bloody thieves!

I am going to get one of the Viper paging alarms for sale on the trading section, since so many cars have gone missing around the place lately. I have a good alarm and immobilisers already, but it would be nice to thave a vibrating pager in your pocket for when you are at the shops or someone else's house etc ....

Apparently the car has been recovered, mostly stripped, and 2 people have been charged so far.

Anonymous phone call, read more at the link.

    • 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! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
