Had the R31 stolen from outside of our house 2 nights ago (tuesday night)

Very stressful, especially with an exam the next day

Police rocked up and took down some info (luckily a mate in town spotted it and we passed that onto the police, not that they did much about it)

Got a call Wednesday morning and it had been found in Hobart! and seems to be in good condition

Now insurance are going to look at it and make sure everything is ok

Really not what i need during exam period, also heading to Qld on sunday so i have no idea what im going to do about getting the car back.

Pretty happy the didn't torch it tho

Haha, how do you manage to store all these cars?!

Also, we recently bought your old black R32 shell off Daniel, and I was wondering if you would happen to have the import papers by any chance?

PM me if you want, I tried to PM you but couldn't for some reason :)

Haha , few here , few there , no joke i have lost cars before lol (and found them again ) . That black shell was registered previously in tas so it doesn't need import papers , just a sales receipt and pit pass :) , now i think of it though , i vaguely remember the vin wasn't stamped on the strut tower , you would need to get that stamped , you can check the vin with service tas in memory by ringing them , it will start with 6u9000 then the factory vin , the ais station that originally passed it needs a smack on the fingers for not doing it

Ok awesome, yeah it does need the VIN stamping on the strut tower, I remember Daniel mentioned it when we bought it off him. Not 100% sure if we're going to register it yet but it would be nice to have the option to in the future.

I see Peter tagged you in the photo on Facebook so I assume you know it still has the yellow guards :) I actually saw your yellow 4 door today with the black guards on it so if you want to swap that would work out well, although I will say the paint on the left hand side is a bit poor, not sure if it was like that when you had them or not.

Ahh yep , it's definitely a complied shell . Yes i would like to swap front guards (get the missuz off my back about painting it lol) , the black ones on the yellow car are average too , the right one has a couple dings and the left one has a hole cut out for an indicator , my ph is 0419552441 if your interested in swapping :)

    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • 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.
