OH MY DEAR GOD!

That's f**ked...

And that's a LOT of shit too...

Hope you find em Steve :D

Thanks mate, there is a LOT gone, the above isn't even scratching the surface.

The R35 GTR parts listed were stripped off the Donut King R35 GTR, which was up on the hoist in the second warehouse.

The 3 cars that were stolen, was taken with keys, stolen from our locked and secured cabinet.

They obviously aren't very smart. A set of R35 GTR rims being sold will have to be sold to a select few. I myself can nearly name every single R35 GTR owner in Aus...

It's still f**ked though, that's a low act. Not something you want to come back after a weekend to find...

Thanks guys:

This is one of the R32 GTR's that was stolen:

- G4 8 Piston Front Brake Kit

- Gunmetal Grey

- New N1 Engine

- Rough Paintwork

- Stock Intercooler (With Greddy Logo in white)

- Old Type Volk Racing Wheels (Gold Centre)

I'm trying to get my car out of there sometime this week (probably thursday), so you have one less thing to worry about.

I'll let you know what I've organised!

Cheers,

Andrew.

Thanks Andrew.

Have you had anyone new in there walking around the workshop... sounds like they new what they were there for...

I don't think you would get that much stuff walking in not knowing the place...

We had an issue last week with some customers, which both we and the police are looking into.

It was a professional job, no doubt at all.

All security was disabled, phone lines cut, you name it.

very bad news. I saw nick this morning when he got the call from Darron.

I'm sorry to hear this happen to you guys Steve and Darron, and hopefully given the nature of some of the parts stolen they can be recovered and these theives brought to justice.

and for every body else, always do your best to establish the bona fides of whatever parts you buy off forums etc.

Far out... this is horrible.

that's a major haul.

obviously another Racket happening in sydneytown.

They seem to happen in waves.

They obviously have a large storage area to keep 3 cars and all these parts.

Would insurance even cover these R35 parts?

Is there an actual value on them?

Hope things work out.

a theft this big will surely have decent attention from cops.

    • Are those 1000cc side feeds? If so, that's part of your problem. I have 1480cc and they idle at stoich on 98RON, and all the way to E85. Also your coil packs.....
    • Update for the sake of closure   Ended up getting the intercooler piping all sorted, new plugs and yellow jacket coils, and she was idling mint until it warmed up while I was bleeding the cooling system. Found the misfire to be localised to cyl 3 by unplugging coilpacks, ran a compression test, that checked out, then decided to get a mate to check if that spark plug was firing out of the motor. Upon cranking it over, with the injectors disconnected, the car actually fired and ran on a couple cylinders and heaps of fuel came out the top of cyl 3 I'd say that injector's either spraying incorrectly or spraying far too much, which is fine as I'm planning on replacing them anyway I'm planning on making about 250kW on flex fuel, and have a set of 1000cc injectors from ozautosport, obviously overkill but I'm planning on building the motor and running more boost further down the line, do you reckon they'd be too big for a smooth idle on 98? Thanks for the replies gents, much appreciated
    • I'm confused. You said you want to "remove the clear coat from most panels" but it sounds like you are actually doing a full respray? Few random things to add -  If you chase the blistered paint with 120 grit, I can almost guarantee you'll chase it down to bare metal (that's fine). But if you paint the car from here, you'll have nice little indents where ever the blistered paint was. The new paint won't magically level out the low areas, you need to fill them. Which leads me to the main point I wanted to add, make sure the whole car is flat before you paint it. All those areas with blistered paint you sanded out, make sure to fill them and triple check they are flat with a block guide coat. I'd also check the whole car is flat with a large block and guide coat but yeah up to you if you want to go that far.   
    • 300hp (225kw) is barely outside the standard turbo's range with a bit of extra boost in it (200ish). If you are going to change the turbo you should aim for 250-300kw (330-400hp) to make the expense worthwhile
