Hi all

My beloved R34 Sedan was stolen from the Warringah Mall (Northern beqaches) car park, on Friday night.

As I said it's an R34 Sedan, Metalic silverpaint, rear spoiler remmoved, NISMO clear indicator covers, slightly lowered. with Enkei RPF1 alloys.

Also it had a total respray about 2 years ago which looks farkn sick , probably one of the best R34 sedans around.

Thankfully I do have comprehensive insurance, but I want it back as I'll never find another one that good.

Could you guys please keep an eye for it.

Rego GTT-04D

Much appreciated

Paul

Interested to know where you were parked at Warringah Mall... not many cars get stolen from that area - grew up there and all's been relatively peaceful!

Please give more info, I have a tonne of mates n family still living in the immediate surrounds of that mall.

The car was parked right out the front of Liquire Land, inside the car park, but not undercover.

I've lived in this area my whole life and like you I thought it was fine, never had a second thought about parking their.

Looks like it can happen anywhere.

Next door neighbour's VL Grp A HDT got stolen from his acreage and a locked garage to boot.

Seems that the lowlifes came from 35Kms away. And that wasn't the only one in pieces in their shed.

A person also has to be careful NOT to give out the proper Number Plate if poss.when selling a car. It's a giveaway for where the car is garaged.

An RTA staff member at Lithgow got prosecuted a few years ago for accessing people's private MV particulars.

Insurance claim inspectors also interview repeat theft victims with the Q; "Did you have this car up for sale?"

For future reference, you should always try to park outside the Woolworths entrances (either outside or inside the BigW carpark). There's more human-traffic flowing through those two areas than any other part of the mall in terms of parking areas - thieves would be less keen on stealing something in front a passers-by.

Hence why my car is not stored anywhere near the RTA's registered address for me :P

No I did not have the car for sale, I was in the middle of modifying it, also had the best paint job around.

And no I've never had a car stolen before.

Thanks Stan, probably a good idea, although there were also a lot of people where it was parked, because it's near Coles.

Hay mate - sorry to hear that ;) my biggest fear is getting my r34 stolen....could you tell us what kind of - if any - alarms or immobiliser you had on your car? - Any kill switches – where they were located? thanx mate – I know if someone wants something bad enough they will get it – but at least we can make it as hard as possible for those f**king arseholes.

The only thing I had was a 3 point insurance approved immobilisor.

Looks like it wasn't enough, but as you say if they really want it they'l get it.

I'm considering a GPS tracker for my next car.

    • So been ocd with timing mark but checked from few angle and seems both cam are on and crank is matching as well to the slot on sump and crank pully   i noticed crankshaft cover has been robbed as per attached pic. Any ideas why? Could my balancer or harmonic be on its way out? should I replace the cover? https://ibb.co/ZR1JFYRR
    • So now doing the change and first time dealing with rb so little nervous giving engine power and potential for screwing it up When you align all marks and then remove crank bolt, timing move little I assume you can put the bolt back in once you have removed the pully to get timing to where you want?   here is pic of my both intake and exchust cam aligned, depending on angle you look they seem to be either aligned or a half tooth or so out. Any thoughts? Should you angle your face and look at each mark that way as if looking straight rather than from above as it can be misleading   <a href="https://ibb.co/ZpnhcvbF"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/HfWrGR9b/IMG-4447.jpg" alt="IMG-4447" border="0"></a> <a href="https://ibb.co/4wm2wn4q"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/JWBqWwr1/IMG-4445.jpg" alt="IMG-4445" border="0"></a>   https://ibb.co/ZpnhcvbF https://ibb.co/4wm2wn4q
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy Haven't really thought of that yet, but you are right. If the hose was damaged it should be absolutely pissing by now. I'll put some heat sleeve around it for good measure since I'm already removing the line anyway.  Maybe I'll put on some of the stock hardlines if I ever fully remove the turbos again. Maybe when T51R modding the compressor housings? Might be a fun mod on GT28s for that "fake single turbo" effect.
    • Update 1: I did some work on the car already before finalizing this post and my "issues" list. I dropped the Tomei exhaust in favor of the HKS Hi Power Silent. Sounds nice and I can actually hear myself think now. Also gives me a realistic chance to legally drive without silencer inserts. A bit of cheating was necessary to still be able to mount the Top Secret style diffuser. Some malusage of washers and a bit of "convincing" toward the brackets and exhaust hanger seemed to do the trick. The shaky steering wheel has been resolved as various suspension components were worn, like sway bar bushings and link bars. Most notably the two steering tie rod ends. Had some trouble finding bushings because my sway bars are not OEM thickness, 23.x up front and 27 rear. But non adjustable, so no aftermarket I suppose. Maybe they are nismo units? Turbo oil drain hoses were definitely still the originals and are new now. Wasn't the cause of the turbo oil leak sadly. Currently removing the rear turbo because of it, I suspect the braided oil feed line is the culprit. This issue needs to be dealt with so I can work towards actually getting the turbo setup legal and inspected. Two new issues to add to the list as well. Rear Main seal is probably leaking. Time will show how bad it is, I don't really want to drop the gearbox right now just for the stupid seal. Could fix a few other things in one go once I do that. Front right driveshaft grease is going past the cv boot, so at some point I'll fix that too.
    • Ok so no 4cyl clutch... Yeah it is a factory manual. So if iam correct i need clutch and flywheel too? I can use something that suits something like R32 GTST?   EDIT: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224291042776 Is this ok?   EDIT2: i maybe forget to mention this(dk how important it is) but the trans will be behind RB25DET NEO(iam doing swap) It will be there for a little while. Iam planing to do bigbox or BMW tranny..
