So since I live in Brissy now and mum was on holidays a bunch of entrepreneurs had obviously cased out my house for a five finger discount.

They must've been purely opportunistic as they only stole from the garage and didn't break into the actual house.

Items missing:

17" Work VS-XX

Custom wider outer bands for VS-XX rims

Rolling toolbox and an assortment of Wurth tools

Lawnmower

US Audio home entertainment system

GMC Bench saw

Fruit n vege trolley

I box full of audio cables

Seriously... whoever grabbed the stuff is a complete idiot... or a crackhead of some sort looking for a quick buck. I mean... who steals a frikken shopping basket trolley thing?

Not really pissed that the stuff's gone, cos insurance is giving me back more than the value of the items :blink: But if anyone comes across any 17" VS-XX's for sale around the dandenong area or surrounding burbs... or more obviously the custom machined bands, please let me know, I'd like to "talk" to the seller.

The wheels look like this...

They were wrapped in factory work covers and had boxes with the "Work" logo on 3 of them.

dayum that sucks man, probably first timers and most likely knew what was in there...those wheels are hot :blink: ...

hooray for insurance though. hope you find the bastards man.

yeah not pissed about the loss... more pissed that they upset my poor mum. Ah well... metal fence is gettin put up this week and I've just ordered an 8 point house alarm which will call me and 2 other people if someone tries to break in again.

Me and my mates just wanna find the amatures that took the stuff for shits n giggles.

And yeah I was stressed cos I thought they might have taken my light up panel, but its still there. The rest of the gear is all replaceable.

man that sux... i h8 the dande area man.. i'm scared to walk out the front door incase som1 steals the shirt off my back...

you no they took the fruit trolley so they could carry everything down to there car...

you made it convienient for them man.......

the rims were 7" +22 all around. the bands were machined up to make them 10.5" -22 at the back and 9.5" -10 in the front. I doubt they'd have put them on the wheels though.

oh bummer what a shame. You had so many treasures in that garage!

Please tell me they didnt take the r32 light panel!!

Omg what a bitch. Me and pat were talking crap about comming and taking your stuff because i loved those rims lol :banana: and some wanker has actually done it. Wtf

case solved....first 2 to reply with condolences, and also saying that they were thinking of TAKING the stuff - hmmmm i have to wonder :bunny:

anyways - will keep an eye/ear out for any dodgey pricks selling your stuff (that is if, the above 2 are innocent)

Same kind of thing happed when i was robbed; they stole my washing basket too. Cops reckon it was to haul the stuff out of the house in. f**kers.

id like to see flamin mongrels get near my house or garage lol. i have 5 bros and sisters a huger rottie that prowls the front yard, back yard, inside the house and the back door for the garage is always left open for him if he hears or senses some dirty thieving flamin mongrels around there, plus i have my emo stick (crow bar) and my bro has a 12 guage lol

    • You have the option to do this. Nobody but me ever did this (go slower, I mean) Everyone seems to fall victim to "This would be a great setup for you, but for me, I need a little more power..."
    • Save yourself the headache of an alarm. Immobilizer on the signal side of the main EFI relays so it won't start is good enough. DIY killswitch is the same thing except instead of a nice passive system you need to remember to switch it on and off.
    • Yeah, the advent of canbus was supposed to cut down on wiring weight, then some bright marketing wonk says "oh, look at all these wonderful tech gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some arsehole safety legislator says "oh, look at all the wonderful surveillance and tracking gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some dipshit young engineer who has grown up thinking that an extra 500000 lines of code is not a problem because storage is cheap these days says "oh look at all this wonderful shit I can do to one up those dipshit arsholes over at VW" and the Karens of the world all go "oh look at all these fancy things I can do on my screen (so long as I am not driving on a bumpy road wherein touch screens immediately become the single most stupid shit idea ever shoveled into a car) and my 19 zone airconditioning keeps my sweaty fat folds a bit less damp and the windows close themselves because I'm too fat and lazy to wind them up for myself and these reversing sensors would have been great if I'd paid attention to them instead of smashing them on the bollard while I was reversing and staring fixedly forward that day I went to pick up little Charlize from ballet" and the sweaty mongoloids who say "oh this wonderful collision avoidance technology with these 45 excellent radar antennae scattered across the front of my car mean I can tailgate like a methed up tradie at full speed with no fear because the car and the 35 airbags will protect me if it all goes wrong" ...... </shallistopranting?>
    • There's a post from a member (can't recall who), went down the path of a twin scroll G30-660 and it's doing over 300kW+ AND comes on about the same as a high flow RB25DET turbo. Have your cake and eat it too in this case. TBH, if I had a 2nd chance of building my car again (i.e. someone gave me what I wanted for my shit box, but the deal was I had to re-build another R33 and keep the change) I would just pop in a stock NEO motor (with new seals, rod bearings, ARP studs, head gasket, sump, Nitto pump), get a smaller twin scroll turbo, modify the stock low mount (keep the divider in place), and make a solid 300kW on 98RON and call it a day.
