finally, they're doing something about it...

just saw it on the news, 400 police this morning set out to make arrests, south west of sydney... for rebirthing cars. Wonder how many of these are skylines.. they mentioned that some of the cars were car jacked..

Was my S14 200sx - sad to see it go, but the insurance paid for a much nicer nissan! Heard from QLD police 18months later - it had turned up on the Gold Coast - must have been a hell of a holiday for the old girl!

Was 100% as it left me, and on to it's second owner - but they got the bloke who originally sold it- haven't caught the ones that stole it (yet).

Now have tracking alarms on both cars - won't happen again. The factory immobiliser obviously didn't give them any trouble....

Sure DLuded, but did you ever wonder, when the cops are after crims, who has time to defect cars? I hope RTA inspectors can help out, coz we can't afford to have commonwhores all over the country loosing at the traffic lights.

it really doesnt bother me to see crappy cars like that driving around (because i have a crappy LOUD car and i dont want to get caught). anyway i would prefer to see cops actually doing something useful then being wasted on defecting cars. all that money wasted on police equipment and its being used to defect car...not worth it

Well said. :)

Ha,Ha,,, they got 23 scumbags today and heaps of evidence of others involved,,,,,,Bankstowns such a lovely place,,,,lots of Panel Shops got raided as well as 2 Warehouses. Some got court with stolen boats as well. Others were stealing new cars and stripping them for parts.

I thought something was going on this morning,,,next to no cop cars at Bankstown Cop Station when I walked past at 7.00am. I'll ask the head copper next time I see him ,,he sometimes stands outside sucking on a Cig.

hope this really cuts back on the car thefts and car jacks.... for awhile anyway.

Insurance companies must be happy knowing where all their funds went.

Would really be interested to know how many of these cars are skylines or other grey imports. They mentioned most were 'exotic' cars... are skylines classed as that.. or is that an understatement.. muahaha! :)

ALL I Can say is:

SUCKED IN!!!!!! :shake: :shake: :shake: :shake:

Its a bout time those bloody cops do something good instead of bullsh*t defects and petty fines. although i get mixed feelings when i remember that the money from all the defects and fines helped to fund that bust. At least it was for a good cause.

if so it just confirms how some guys in the south west are funding their Bemmer convertables and M3's........

Actually, you'd be very surprised to find out exactly how much money these guys get from their parents.......

They act all big & tough, but 99% of them would have absolutely no chance of surviving without their mum & dad.........

MR CRX was the "workshop" that was raided? can anyone 100% confirm this or is it simply another rumour.

I just read the heral and sounds like performance workshops, car yards and mroe were involved.... they mentioned no skylines however found containers with WRX's etc and showed a shot on the news of a inside a workshop with a WRX with big FMIC in full view...

Sounds like the carjacking saga might be coming to a close *hopefully*

I know the above workshop is in bankstown and cops said they found a container FULL of parts outside the un named workshop and seized over 35 cars...

    • It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.
    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
