As the thread says, my Maroon 1987 NA Vl was stolen Tuesday morning from the Fairfield area in Brisbane, QLD Number plates were 272PXH.

It is registered / insured in my name but I gave it to my little sister about 6 months ago (I drive the 33 Skyline remember). Big problem is, when she paid the insurance she renewed only for 3rd party (she thought she was getting fire and theft as well). So now I'm down the value of the car and my sister is finding it almost impossible to get to work and uni.

Karma will catch the low life scum who stole it so I don't have too. But that does not get my car back. So I'm offering a $$cash$$ reward (no questions asked) for information leading to the return of the car or conviction of the theif.

Thanks all.

"Another one bites the dust"

Please don't take that the wrong way, just pointing out that yet ANOTHER VL commodore gets stolen. It's getting ridiculous these days.

I hope you find it or karma catches up with the wankers who stole it.

Hey everyone, I've got good news and bad news:

Good news: The car was found.

Bad news: It is a puddle of molten metal - supprise, supprise.

Coppers found it in the bush around Wacol area (again supprise, supprise).

Must have been a big fire, the glass all melted, even the cam cover was a puddle in the engine bay.

Really pissed off because the low lifes just took it and floged the crap out of it then burnt it, they did not even bother taking anything from it, (It had a couple of guages, decent stereo and VN Calis mags, extractors, so on).

I'm not really supprised, I did not expect it would turn up in working order.

Bummer, I had some good times in that car!!!

If I ever find out who did it I will make them pay dearly.

Well there was a little (evil) part of me that was hoping they were still inside. But they were not, so I'm pretty sure they crashed it then burnt it. I really hope it hurt when they pranged it.

    • So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House  
    • Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.
    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?
