POSTING FOR A FRIEND, PM ME IF YOU NO OR SEE ANYTHING

Happened 8th of jan in the early morning. police say 5-6 people entered my house without waking up anyone, took laptops,. ipods, and other stuff like mums wedding rings and left with my car and my dads car (which we found undamaged in nerang)

When we woke which was around 5:30am we noticed the cars were gone. Mine needing fuel so we proceeded into nerang to look, and too our shock there was my car at the set of lights out the front of dan murphys. we moved in front of them to block them in but they hit full boost and rammed my mums car totalling it.

It then went north towards pac pines, we rung tow trucks, garbage trucks and taxis to all keep an eye out. one tow truck driver (a close friend) informed us that my car had been in a high speed pursuit and highway patrol cars could not catch it. it was last seen headed into pac pines.

The police say there is a $5000 reward for the person driving the car which is thought to be an 18yo so called skyline bandit......

if anyone sees him or my car call police straight away who knows it could be a $5000 phone call..

nah, there has been a couple of blokes getting around stealing a whole heap of them in the last month and a bit.. 'the skyline bandit'. I've lost count, but seems to be near 10 they've stolen. I don't think any(?) have had alarms at all, or immobolisers.

Will be good if they've actually caught the guy.

I've seen your car around skyline_chick (before it was stolen)

it wasnt my car it was my mates. they cought him the skyline bandit. he wont say where the car is but.

bit of a shame really. you can't have a decent car without it being targeted. probably the reason I'm on the coast working a lot more now...

I'm going to pac pines in the morn so if I see somehting odd I'll ring the local cops.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
