REWARD $10000. 4xR32 GTR's MISSING OVER THE LONG WEEKEND.


Recommended Posts

THIS IS NO JOKE! THE REWARD IS GENUINE!

My partner and I had 6x1990 R32 GTR's stolen over the long weekend from Glebe. The police already have found 2 of them and there are still 4 missing. We have searched the adjoining suburbs as much as we have possibly could. I would appreciate anyone's help if they have heard anything or seen anything etc... The cars only landed in Australia 10 days ago and were at the quarintine recomended cleaners. Somehow over the long weekend they broke in and actually had to jump start these cars and drove them through a wired fence to escape. they also had not a lot of fuel either. We are not too sure about how they took all 6 in one hit or they kept coming back etc.. This is a big loss to me and my partner as the cleaners involved have no insurance and wont claim responsibility. My solicitor will be involved in that shortly. We need to recover the cars as you can imagine the money thats involved. The cars that are missing are:

1. Midnight Blue/Purple R32 GTR

2. White R32 GTR

3. 2x Gunmetal Grey R32 GTR's

They all have standard R32 GTR wheels and have exhaust systems etc... The midnight blue/purple car has been used in some theft/break in enter's over the weekend as I have been told by police. Apparently they are using stolen number plates as well. If you see one check if it has a rego label etc... I dont know what else to say as I am so devistated and have been driving around all night trying to find any of the cars. Another way of maybe recognising the cars is they drove straight through the wire fence and there are the possibility of scratches over the bonnet and roof and the side of the car. The 2 that were found had scratches in those areas. Any help would be much appreciated. My contact no. is 0411870222 if you have any information. Any help will be much appreciated.

mate, that is every car importers worst nightmare. I'm hoping everything will turn out ok. I will certainly keep my eyes open for you mate.

Best of luck.

Hobbs bros aye????

I had my car cleaned for quarantine here and to lock the car up, they basically put my car between 2 shipping containers ( left and right of the car) and a wall, basically they blocked it in with another container from the front....

Was the gtr's locked up the same way?

Sorry to hear the loss.... If they broke through the fence with those cars that they found, the other cars probably will have less scratches, as it sounds like the GTR's recovered have probably been the ones to get through the fence first

there dump enough to be using a gtr to rob places so maybe they will stuff up and be dumb enough to get caught.. i cant believe how hard this could be for you! i imported and was freaking over one car! and it was only there for a few nights.. good luck with it.. hope to hear some good news!

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
