DRF13 Stolen!

The very well known DRF13 owned and loved by Darren from Autoshop has been stolen at 5pm today 07/10/05.

The car was stolen in broad daylight by a man wearing a red hat who was seen getting into the vehicle and driving off.. Unfortunately the salesman thought this was Darren and only an hour later was it realised that it wasn't.

The car was parked on Ipswich Road outside the Autoshop car yard and was fully secured and had very limited fuel.

If you see the car driving along, report it to the police.

If you know something about this car being stolen or where it is and want to remain anonymous, please phone crime stoppers on 1800 333 000.

If you are serious and it was this car, please report it to police.

There is a pink one exactly the same kit/stickers... so please don't get it confused.

With regards to reporting it to the coppers, would they know about it being reported, also what do i need/should i say?

I am fairly certain it was the one missing

The right side is the same as the left side. The stickers are identical on both sides.

If you see it, just ring 3364 6464 which is the police communications number and advise them that you saw the car driving along "this road" at "this time" in "this direction" and the driver "looked like this".

I wasn't implying that you were colour blind, I was just advising that there is also a similiar car that Darren built with the same kit and stickers, but it's pink, just incase people think it's the same car but someones painted it.

yeah i was talking to the people that were there when it was recovered. out near kangaroo point or sumthing. its been stripped of alot of stuff though. the guys who stole it musn't have been to smart anyway. hope he's just happy to get it back, and there isnt too much damage. i also heard that it was in an undercover parking area or sumthing and the guys who stole it went out and when they got home the car was gone, the cops came and took it on them. lol and a few guys went and let the tyres down in there car so they couldnt drive off.

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
