I have copied this straight from a thread posted up by a mate who owns the workshop. If you can't get in contact with him i can be contacted by 0401 669 900.

Hi guys, unfortunately with modified cars and parts come the scum sucking arsehole element bunch of thieves who are too lazy to earn their own way in the world and would rather steal to support their f*cked up lifestyles.

On saturday night, the 6th of October the following items were stolen from my workshop.

These items are pretty easily identified so if you see any, or are offered any please notify police or myself asap along with any details of the people trying to shift them.

HKS T04R turbo with alloy bend welded to the turbo outlet. 0.82 exhaust A/R and small chips on comp wheel. Was attached to a genuine Trust/GReddy 1JZ manifold which has had the wastegate pipe modified to clear steering in JZX90.

1GGTE turbo kit. Comprises a HKS T04 turbo and a Blitz/Sgma manifold and wastegate. This manifold is stainless steel and has had an adapter plate welded to the mounting flange so the T4 HKS turbo can be mounted to it. This makes it completely unique and easily identifiable.

HKS GT2535 ballbearing turbo with T3 flange and a stainless steel dump pipe to suit an RB20DET

HKS GT2530 ballbearing turbo with T2 flange attached to an SR20DET manifold and also with a stainless steel dump pipe

Tein HR S13 front coilovers with cusco cambertops

Riverside Stich 17x9 +11 4 and 5 stud mesh deep dish wheels, two of only. Unique rims, silver centres and polished lip. Extremely rare wheel here especially in this size and offset.

Work Meister 18x10 +20 rims in white with polished lip.

Part of a Blitz K26 twin turbo kit. The dipshits took only one turbo/manifold/wastegate assembly and left the other. Turbo is in need of rebuild as it doesnt rotate well, being very stiff. If someone offers you half of a kit, after you stop laughing please call the police.

I will happily pay a reward for the return of ANY of these items, and any information leading to the arrest/assault/termination of these scum sucking self-abusing c*nts.

This stuff cost me a lot of money to collect, and ship over and knowing some worthless trailer-trash bastard is jerking off over them at the moment pisses me off.

Im even more pissed that they took the turbo and manifold that is for my race car, so now I can't even get it re-assembled and console myself with some high speed hijinx.

Any info at all, please call me at workshop and if Im not there leave a message with your contact details. 07 3865 2030

Well hopefully just the parts, bodies can smell a little.

Not good to hear, i posted a thread up in the QLD section of the R31 skyline club, a little more coverage of this can't hurt

hope you get it back

      Oof, I will forevermore have those shredded gears in mind whenever someone talks about showing mechanical sympathy towards their car. Thanks for the photos, fascinating stuff!

      The holdups last year were drivetrain related. I had the car out right after getting the bearing issue resolved. Third launch and the car didn't move after releasing the clutch. It had sheared all the engagement teeth off the 1st gear.    Thankfully no other damage was done. I set an aftermarket gear beside an OEM gear and found that the engagement teeth on the OEM gear were much larger and better supported. Looking through my bin of spare transmission gears I found that there are two types of tooth on the OEM first gears - the larger tooth and the smaller tooth. It looks like most aftermarket gearset manufacturers base their design on the smaller tooth. OEM large tooth left - Speedtek, OS Giken, etc or OEM small tooth right Decided to give that larger engagement tooth a try. Pressed the ring off an OEM gear and sent it to a transmission manufacturer here in the States. They did their "faceplating" operation with my synchro ring on the Speedtek gear.   I reassembled it, took it back to the track and promptly destroyed the gear itself.  I'll rebuild this and use it as a spare - thankfully just first gear and the countershaft are damaged beyond repair. Definitely disheartening but my welded on engagement tooth ring held up!  Moved to Speedtek's dog engagement design as the gears appear to be much stronger. So far they have taken much more abuse at the track. Also scored a Stillway lockout from the Netherands for super cheap. It's for some other RB transmission so it took a bit of fabrication to fit but honestly a very easy job. I also had to heavily modify the gates as they were very different.   Then for some reason at the last test and tune a silicon coupler below the throttle blew off and took out the radiator and fan. Thankfully it was in the burnout box and not down track. This car is really beating me up - I still haven't made a pass in it. Ran it through the gears many times on the street but it keeps biting me at the track.  Currently in the process of replacing the radiator and remaking the throttle pipe to remove the coupler and use a cast 90 and a vband. I WILL get this thing down the track...

      Covers most of the above points really. There's a few exceptions but most just see driving as an irritating but necessary task they must complete if they want to get anywhere on time. Also see it as a good time to show their awesome multi-tasking abilities on their mobile and/or doing their makeup.

      I don't believe I posted pictures of the second oil pump pickup I added so here they are. Data shows it gets oil pressure up to the relief pressure much earlier in the RPM. Is that important? Not likely... This was just another attempt to fix the bearing issues.   I also heavily opened up the inlet to the pump since it now had to flow oil from two pickups. I believe the diameter increased about 1/8".
