Car recovered. Found in a shopping centre car park. Taken for a joyride, they damaged the ignition barrel, and wires but apart from that it's ok.

I have yet to see it in person, this is based on what the police have told me

I'll let you know more as news comes to hand

Well i have put an ad in the "public notice" section of the Gold Coast Bulletin.

It'll have a Big border with REWARD in bold as the first line. So Hopefully this will ignite some interest. I have a feeling that it was pinched by Pro's and probably stripped and sent everywhere......

Guess it's a tough lesson to learn that if you can't afford insurance, then get a DAMN GOOD BACK TO BASE ALARM system installed. That way if you hear anything or the key alarm or phone goes off, you might have a chance to either call the cops then and there, or apply some "Flying fits of fury" on the perpetrators.

Ill keep posted on what's happening, but i have a feeling that im not going to hear anything.

Chat to yas later.....

Lozza :)

Oh hell yeah, i think ill buy a couple of lotto tickets.

According to the police and the holding yard, most of my personal belongings are still in the car.

The night they took it i had less than 10 litres of fuel in it, (fuel station round the corner) and they didn't make it far. Approx 6-7 k's from where they stole it from. It took so long to locate it because the car park has 2 parkking area's and the 2nd section is behind a church so it's not visable from the road.

Probably a good thing cause it sat there for 3 months. Im stoked no one else knocked anything else off it while it sat there...

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
