Hey guys,

Unluckily tonight at 11pm Brisbane time my car was stolen from my work (just out of my sight) at the Shell Service Station Corner of Logan and Nursery Road, Mt Gravatt.

It's a Black 1993 Series 1 R33 GTs-T with Series 2 Rear Wing (turbo model), Plates are Gold on Black, BEN 337. Dark Tint, and a Apexi RSM andSAFC-II on the dash (very visable with the apexi stands) with Momo Steering wheel and Nismo Gear Knob (black leather one), 17 Silver AVS 5 Spoke lightwieght rims.

Was last seen heading toward the M1 along Nursery Road. I believe they would head south towards the coast or into the city (Gaza Road exit northbound, and the on ramp just before Klumpp/Mains Road exit).

Yes it was insured, but that doesn't make this suck balls any less, good alarm (black wire mongoose, I'm pretty sure I armed it but could have bumped the controlled in my pocket... FUDGE KNOWS), however... I was running late for work and didn't put my steering wheel lock on (behind my drivers seat, the one freaking time I don't... I'm always so paranoid). Didn't hear the alarm, but I can't hear much from outside and I could have been out back getting stock when this took (the actual break in). I came out to serve a customer when I noticed a DICKHEAD spinning wheels in reverse in a black skyline... thought what a wanker! Then realised hey... those are my rims... THAT'S MY CAR. I ran outside after it.... not that I could do anything. All the while I was serving a customer (I think they waited till the customer walked in before taking off, he didn't see anybody, but it's dark there). As far as I know/hear/see he could have spent an hour inside the car getting around the alarm etc...).

They managed to stay out of sight of the cameras (ARGH!!) as they came in next to the carwash in the dark (!#@%@#). What's worse a member from here spoke to me under an hour before complimenting my car and telling me about his White R34... missed your name the other customer spoke to me).

Anyway pictures incoming. This f**king sucks balls... right infront of me. Customer in the store crapped himself when I shouted "holy %$$$ they are stealing my car" and just ran out the store. He was still there when I returned so I thanked him, asked if he saw anything (he didn't) and sent him on his way. Police turned up about an hour later and took my info... they pulled somebody over 10min after it happened on the same road I last saw it go down....

So if anybody sees my car please call the police ASAP and e-mail me at [email protected]

Cheers,

Ben

how much fuel did it have in the tank? cause they may have just flogged it till the juice stopped flowing.

however, if they took an hour to beat the alarm they may have more respect for it then just flog it

Everytime I see a topic of this nature, my heart sinks.

It's one of those, "It'll never happen to me" kind of thing's which you hope never does.

Fingers crossed you get some good news soon.

Yeah, having insurance is a blessing, however it doesn't lessen the blow of losing your pride and joy.

Best of luck.

I live around that area, will keep an eye out as well. There's nothing worse then one someone let alone breaks into your car, not to mention steal it, and thrash it in front of your eyes!! That's gotta hurt!!

Tank was 3/4 full... I filled up tuesday and I was only on my second night of work for the week (use 3/4 of a tank per week.. sigh). Was meant to move out of home in a couple of months... looks like that'll suffer a bit of a delay.

Thanks guys for the words, weirdest thing I've ever seen... thought... no way that isn't my car at first. Reviewed the video today and he almost hit a car on his way out the driveway too. So I'm glad he didn't as those people would be worse off also.

I'll keep you updated, but I have that awful feeling I'll never see it again. Anybody got a R32 GTR forsale? lol, though I've been thicking about a crotch rocket for a few months now (I know, dangerous!). So much for taking care of it to the best of my ability =)

Also this comes after last year when my girlfriends Magna was fire bombed in her family's front yard. I love cars.... but not having the best of luck it seems lol

Phone call 20min ago from the police... it's been found... ohh how exciting. Burned out down the gold coast. Did excatly what I thought they would do, bastards.

Straight from my work down the M1 to the Gold Coast. (my work is just near the on ramp). So they prob scored me a ticket or 2 from speed cameras (thursday night afterall) which is a non-issue though since it was stolen.

Insurance is just cars, all should be fine... still out my excess and the claim against myself as I greatly doubt anybody will be caught (future insurance price rise... whoopie).

RIP Nissan R33 Skyline, so much effort to keep it a prime example (close to stock, good paint and excellent mechanics).

What to get next I guess is the question after this all clears, in the mean time got to find a way to work!

Thanks anyway guys, and remember, be safe guys, lock your car up. I'm thinking I might do some donating of club locks to the SAU car club for people to enter... I imagine if I didn't forget mine it would have made a massive difference.

Maybe my rims are still decent and I can nab them, know somebody who might want them hehe.

Thanks lol, you should see my partner she is seeing blood. Between the 2 of us that's 3 cars (2 were hers) burnt out now... each with insurance and security devices (all at different places and completely unrelated).

From what my work says, it's a first for the company in Queensland, yay for being special!

Well I was going to take a holiday this upcoming week but decided to delay it... guess I get to anyway lol (not keen to go back to work heh).

      Nope, but they are definitely one of the default choices. Well established.

      Haha actually I did join back then under a different email address,  I couldn't re-activate my account so made a new one! I didn't post much anyway so not missing out on much. Amazing to see how the value of the cars and parts has changed over the years, also ACT section appears to be dead now.

      Thanks... It's in pretty good condition overall, probably due to not being drifted/tuned however being a daily driver has taken its toll. Had 100k on the clock when I got it, up to 180k now. Unfortunately it's not 100% dent free, it's got a small dent on FLH side and broken indicator from where I hit a small kangaroo at high speed. If you look at closely at pic #5 you might spot the dodgy trailer light repair my old man and I rigged up as temporary repair! - It's still there due to a combo of needing the car as daily driver and then too lazy/busy to fix properly. I've a couple of other minor accidents accidents as well but nothing major. One required a new front bar and unfortunately the smash repairer ordered the normal gtst one and not the aero bar. Needed the car back asap so just went with it, regretted ever since.

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I can't believe that anyone is foolish enough to believe that the base maps are for any other purpose than to drive the car up onto the trailer/truck or gently creep it to the dyno. No matter how good they are, they can never be any better than the factory maps**, and only the foolish trust those on a significantly modified setup. **Yeah, yeah. I know there's also the difference between factory maps being fixed to certain injector sizes and MAP/AFM/VE relationships, and the likely aftermarket ECU base maps being better able to handle the sorts of changes that would render a stock ECU dangerous, like different sized injectors. But let's just ignore that for the moment, because the principle is still the same.
