well some dickhead/s decided to take my beige R31 skyline wagon today, which totally sux balls!!

was stolen sometime between 10 and 530 today from narrabundah. car is a shit beige GXE S1/2 Wagon with cut springs and some gay 15inch S13 mags. car is worth f**kall to me really but im more concerned with all the shit in the back. i had a big (1.5-2m) garage jack, a 3/8 drive sidcrome socket set, a ryobi cordless drill, 4x 4WD jack stands. and a white/clear plastic box full of all my drift spares that i was gonna use this weekend

anyway car also has a blown pioneer CD player in it, its ran out of rego a few days ago, and the rego plates are YER 59U, altho there were some spare plates in the too so they might have put those on.

anyway keep an eye out and if you see it or anything like it, call me asap

yeah not far from the college (my house). dont know if they hotwired it but it woulda only needed a screwdriver to start it.

previous owner had the car stolen and recovered, so i got it for next to nothing coz it was running rough. fixed it nice and cheap and has been going great. but i havent been driving it coz i got another daily/ tow car. so i been storing some shit in there and now its all gone.

i dont actually care about the car. if someone finds it with all the stuff in it, they can have the car as a reward

Mark was saying there was a car burnt out on Laurel Camp Rd this morning (out from the Cotter) he can't remember what type of car, he remembers it was a 4 door but could have been a hatch, but did notice a hinged lid metal toolbox in back.

PS its still smoking, so only fresh.

When my ex's car was stolen from the same area, we caught them down Jerrabomberra Ave near the dog club and greyhound track but on the other side of the road, there was a dirt road and paddock, and they'd taken the car down there.

I don't know if you looked there, but it might be worth a shot?

I guess it might be too late now though... if it was dumped somewhere you'd think the cops would have called you by now :woot:

well good news, today the cops found my car.

by the looks of it they drove to the next suburb, dumped the box of gear that my mate found. tried to do some burnouts, and failed, tyres still have about the same tread on them. and somehow crashed into a pole of some sort. not a huge hit. then took the car to an aged care home and parked it out the back in a carpark, took the stereo which didnt work (dumb flamin mongrels) and looked through the glove box and console to find nothing. and then left it.

they left all my stands and socket se, and cordless drill, and garage jack, and spare set of plates.

i think they musta been kids coz the seat was heaps far forward.

the hit wasnt too bad, bumper, filler panel, smashed head light, bent guard so it was rubbin on the tyre, bent radiator support. fan hitting on the shroud and radiator.

im not sure i could be f**ked fixing it, i might just wreck it. i need a spare gearbox for the drift car anyway.

so all in all a bloody great result, i didnt think id get the gear back. and thats all i really cared about

thanks to everyone for keeping an eye out for it.

      That cannot have been a fun set of drilling. The stock "baffle" looks identical to rb26, I just cut fuel cell foam to fit the full length under the baffle.

      I understand your sarcastic exasperation. But to be fair - the baffles do indeed fit OEM cam covers. They did omit to say that you need to do a bunch of stuff. But they do fit them.

      Got started on the modification to make these splash plates fit over the long weekend. First the surprisingly time consuming task of swapping all the cam cap bolts to Tomei cam cap studs. I did the method of removing one bolt at a time, applying loctite to the stud, double nutting to torque as the manual described. Then carefully unlocking the nuts without disrupting the torque of the stud (and going back to re-torque a few times when it slipped). Finally applying the nut and torquing to spec. Repeat x28 Next up I went about removing the stock cam cover baffle so I could ensure it was fully clean after drilling for stud clearance.  As the blind rivets holding the baffle on were domed I used a punch to mark the center then used 4mm drill bit to carefully drill out the rivet without going too far part the baffle. As seen in other thread here is what is inside the stock baffles I decided on M4x6mm bolts to bolt the baffle plate back on with. I used a 3.3mm drill bit with some tape to mark the depth at ~8mm. Next was to tap the threads using a cheap bunnings kit M4x0.7. With the baffle removed I also drilled out the spot welds holding in the baffle plate oil returns. Unsure whether this was the best option or if I should have cut holes in the Hypertune splash plates to allow the oil drains to still function... time will tell. I then removed the the Hypertune splash plates so I could rest the cam cover on top and use a dab of grease to mark where the studs impacted the oem cam cover baffle. The most obvious spot was on the hump from the stock mesh is held. Using this hole as an anchor I bolted the oem baffle plate back into the cam cover and lined up the Hypertune splash plate. Marked the rest of the holes for the studs and drill those out too. Total 32 holes drilled and 12 threads tapped on the passenger side cam cover alone for this bolt on part that totally clears all OEM cam covers.. Drivers side next as well as some E85 safe fuel foam to fill the space behind the behind cam cover baffle plates. oh and some lock nuts for the splash plates of course.
