Our VN Berlina wagon was stolen on Monday from Curtin Uni. It is a white 5ltr with polished VS SS rims and bonnet tachos. The rego number is 8XT 235. There is a reward for the return of this car as it was not insured (hadn't owned it very long). There was a Telstar with plates on still left next to where the Commo was taken from. That was stolen 24 hours before ours. Any info would be really apprecialted and we are DESPERATE to get this car back. You can call me on 9592 2240 or Jeff on 0407 473 673. There will be no questians asked, we just want our car back with minimum damage.

There is a photo of it if any of you see it. It was going to have an alarm installed but the guy who was gonnu do it was in a accident so it was waiting for him to be better to do it.

We are DESPERATE for it back.

It's funny really, the VN is one of the most stolen commo's around. We had a '90 VN a few years back, stock standard, and if it wasn't for the alarm it would have been gone. They're a high risk vehicle cos it's so easy to break into!

(after seeing what they did to ours, I know exactly what to do to open the door!)

Why steal old bombs? you'd think they would take something worth while if their going to risk gaol.They traded a $500 Telstar in on the VN.

Dad, an $8000 car owned by us (not by the bank) at our ages is not what I would class as a bomb. Maybe you would at your age but for young people, I wouldn't.

Thanks Brett, Kym, Paul and Zanda. Still unfortunatly no word.

i have no insurance, never leaving the r31 @ uni again. my last car was broken into a while back there as well. i think it has something to do with the people across the road. we need to start a vigilante group catch these low life pricks

Nick, NEVER park it at Curtin. Even bombs are being nicked, e.g. the Telstar they kindly left me to get home in.

Dad, we paid $4000, been offered $8000. Money was spent on it to. To us the car was worth much much more. I am sorry, I love Skylines, but I would be in denial to admit I didn't love that wagon.

CC, I plan too.

    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.

Greddy bovs. Top-secret coolant reservoir. Emtron ecu. Straight E85. Built gear box.  
    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
