When is officiallyl clased as KIA? and you can make a claim?

Dont wanna be a wet blanket but it think after this long it would be best if it was found around a tree some place, written off. That way you dont get back a car with bits ripped off ciggarett burns in the seats, bad smells and god know a seriously thrashed engine (if it didnt have that already). Sure its gonna take some time to get it back to where it was but they have to give you a car thats the same as when it got stolen. Im hoping you put all your mods on your policy.

Hopefully you will still have some stuff salvageable out of it, like the stereo and some engine parts which are easily ripped out and replaced with the original parts before you give it to teh insurance company. Best you can hope for buddy.

Really blows im sure. What are you drving in the meantime? ill sell u a bunky corrolla for 600 if you like, a mate offered it to me for that and its worth twice that i reckon i was gonna buy it for that and resell it but looks like u might be able to use it more than me. He just wants it off the lawn and knows he will make a loss but cant be bothered. Just got rebuilt so it shouldnt die on ya. Offer stands.

Mate that sucks. Hope u get some good news. Will keep a look out whenever i am in perth. why cant people have respect for other peoples property. thats what it is like in Japan and they dont have much of a problem with car theft. People have said that there have been full house R34 GTR's in the main streets with their doors unlocked. well from what i have read in the ASM magazines.

the claims in already, if i wanted i could of lodged it on the day it was stolen.

just gotta wait for 30odd days for the insurance investigation to complete.

boostzor, pm me the details on the rolla if it has aircon. going a bomb is an option so i can get a house deposit together

Troy ....

Paul and i were driving through Gosnells Friday afternoon .... and this burgandy R33 goes the other way ..... it had a "Ducktail" like yours and the sideskirts .... and paul and i just looked at each other if to say "was thats troys car" unfortunately we werent in a position to turn around and have a closer look. It looked certainly like yours from what we saw - but it didnt have the MASTRYODA plates.

So we may have had the wrong car but from memory there isnt too many around with that rear spoiler right? if it was the right car then somebody has done a swappsie on the plates.

We didnt really see it until it was too late .... being beter prepared i wouldve written the plate number down so you could check with police to see if the plates are registered to another stolen vehicle or that car.

FFS, when someone see's something suspicious, why don't they follow the f****** thing.

There are a lot of boongs in Gossy, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was there.

The amount of time that has elapsed since it was stolen leads me to think that it has probably had the guts flogged out of it. If it is well insured, personally I wouldn't want the thing back. I'd rather see those punks take themselves out in it so they wouldn't be capable of doing it again.

SKYZERR33, no need to comment on my last statement, never no who is on this forum.

ive seen a fair few drift wings on wine red 33's so i wouldnt get 2 excited

yeh id hate to say it but i wouldnt want it bak now :cheers:

i seriously doubt it would still be on the street after this long if it was a joyride or wateva the car is usually found dumped shortly after or the person caught

they wouldnt still be driving it around with the same plates/rims/wing blah blah blah coz no 1 is that stupid

im guessing its been taken for parts i know a few imports from the gym i went to had that happen and were found in a gazillion pieces a few days later

good luk with the insurance

ric777 - it's a little difficult to turn around when there are god knows how many roadworks and detours preventing you from doing it :P

Kyles its up where they are building the new train station along Spencer Rd Thornlie.

I know that it could be come poor innocent mugs car - but i thought it was worth mentioning so dont gang up on me about it :) Ive never seen an R33 apart from Troys with a drift wing and unfortunately we didnt get a good look at the car until it was too late. There were no stickers on the rear quarter windows ... had a fairly big zorst (but doesnt every skyline) ... had side skirts was burgandy and had a drift wing - unfortunately thats all i can tell ya.

not mine unless they took the stickers off.

also russ u'll find most skylines with drift wings are just little lip spoilers to make the rear of the car look level.

mine on the other hand sticks out quite abit. It can only be bought from the place in myaree and to my knowledge they have only sold 2 the other being on a white 33. why only 2 cause they charge to much for it, i got mine at the correct price only because I took in an email from the designer stating what the retail price should be.

    • Here's a boring history lesson on number plates People want illegal spacing to make their plate more readable, if mine was J2X BK, anyone who knows about the car would see that its spelling JZX. Years ago third party plate manufacturers could alter the text to make it look like something else, nowadays the computer software is locks that ability (well, ours does at work) Up until 2001 the first letter of a number plate represented the year of the vehicle, for example A would be 1983. (pre 1983, the format was backwards, so the year letter was on the end). Followed by 3 random numbers and 3 random letters. Things started to get complicated at the end of the 90s where T and V were 1999, W and X were 2000 and Y was early 2001. From 2001 they introduced a new 'layout' where the first two characters are letters, this represented where that vehicle was first registered in the country. The letters corrosponded to a region in the country. Some regions had a large number of codes, where as some only had a couple (despite being large in physical land size) Next are 2 numbers to indicate 2000s. So it went from: Y (March 1999 > Aug 2000) 51 (Sept 2001 > Feb 2002) 02 (March 2002 > Aug 2002) 52 (Sept 2002 > Feb 2003) etc etc When the 2010s got here, the numbers changed again, going up by tens 10 (March 2010 > Aug 2010) 60 (Sept 2010 > Feb 2011) When the 2020s arrived it went to 20 (March 2020 > Aug 2020) 70 (Sept 2020 > Feb 2021) etc As for personalised plates, you're not allowed a registration that makes the vehicle look newer. Take my 110 for example, its a 2004 car so I can have any available plate upto 04. I can't have a 54 because it was manufactured in August 2004. Which allows me to have a J plate, because its older (if that makes sense)    
    • Mount some of these on your dash? https://www.greddy.com/products/16001720  
    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts.
