This morning i go outside to see that my brother's VL parked in the gutter out the front of our house had the two wheels facing onto the road stolen with the car sitting on blocks of wood.

I live on a quiet little court in Narre Warren, its just hard to imagine people doing this.

Lucky they didnt touch the Skyline haha.

But damn some people just suck.

(end rant)

My parents have the garage, and my car gets the driveway coz its worth more haha.

So sadly his gets relegated to the street.

Its hard to think how people do this right in front of your house.

Sux that that had to happen. i once had one of my cars parked right against the house really late one night and some fool broke in and ripped out Subs,amps ,stereo the lot. Was making his last trip back to his getaway vehicle when some neighbours around the corner decided to come over for drinks. Said fool did the bolt for it but we did a search and found an unknown hectic car parked in the next street. Police were called and we just waited outside of his car until he came back whimpering and apologizing making BS excuses not to call the cops as he has a sick mother at home ....blah blah... Too late junior ..Cops are on their way. He got charged and had to pay for the reinstallation of all of my stuff.

Good to know not all of them get away with it :P

I dont get why he only stole 2 and not the whole 4. He must have been sprung by somebody and had to ditch the theft halfway through. I would be asking neighbours if any suspicious cars or persons were sighted in the vicinity.

Well it was parked right up against the gutter so im thinking maybe it was too hard for them to get to the other two.

We spoke to some neighbours; the man next door said he heard something around 4am like a clanging noise, and told his wife but she said dont worry about it and he went back to sleep.

Ironic thing is the night before that i was out for a mates 21st and i got home about 4am, had it been one night later maybe i could have caught them in the act =[

Theyre Derros.

Anyway, your brother should have thought of investing in 1 or 2 pairs of lock nut sets. No matter where you live, shit like this can and will happen

that sucks man :D

so many people which are so inconsiderate of others and their property.. its getting out of hand :(

Tonight i was on my way to work down bell street and watched this f**king wanker in a commodore swerving in and out of each lane and being a royal cockhead. this guy literally thought he was michael schumacher and ayrton senna's love child.

then all of a sudden 'bang' he runs straight into the back of a subaru liberty.

the subaru goes down the side street to exchange details and just as the traffic moves the commodore (with 3 ppl inside) floors it and takes off into the traffic.

WELL GUESS WHAT BUDDY - called up the TMU and gave them his rego etc.

I hope this guy gets f**ked up.

If someone did a hit and run on my car - id be furious - i just hope the person in the subaru was okay.

well done bro, I would hate that to be done to me, hope those dykeheads get shyted on

^ I've had a hit and run done on me. Drunk driver ran up the back of my pride and joy first car, 4 months into my P plates. Steps out of his piece of shit car with a can of bourbon in his hand, trying to pass it off as both our fault and wanting to shake hands / walk away. As soon as I mentioned getting the cops to sort it out, he got in his car and drove off. The guy got away with it too, even though I had his numberplates. Apparently cops don't do shit unless someone was injured in the accident. Constable f**kface had the guys details on screen but couldn't give me them because of the Privacy Act, instead offering to write out a report after his 2 week holiday starting tomorrow. Apparently it's up to your insurance company or a solicitor to take care of a "civil" matter. RACV didn't want to know about it until they had won their court case allowing them to use number plates to track down hit and runs. No less than a year later I get a phone call from RACV telling me they had won their case and could proceed with my hit and run claim. Unfortunately I had written off the car before then so there was no point and/or evidence. I'll never forget the number plates; SDP-177. Car is now deregistered (according to the Vicroads website) so I'll never catch the guy. Hypothetically if I did I would make him bleed, on concrete, alot.

Hate to say it but that Commodore driver will probably get away with it unless the Subaru owner wrote down his plates, or the TMU match up your information to the Subaru accident report and give it to them.

Notice to everyone: if you're involved in a hit and run, try and have an injury. Even if you have to feign it...or the police will tell you where to go.

In short and on topic, it's quite common that people don't give a shit about you and/or your property.

Narre Warren, say no more :D

Id be looking at neighbours if your in a court, perhaps a mate of a neighbour saw the car \ wheels and thought they would come back for the goods.

Unfortunately there are more and more dodgy people around that area, it is unfortunate that he could not park it in a garrage.

Id almost put money that they are now the front wheels of a commodore with stockies on the back, however there are alot of those in your area :)

Reading some of these stories really gets the blood boiling. My uncle was in a crappy situation once, was in the preston market carpark and some woman backed right out hitting him on the passenger side doors. He gets out to exchange insurance information and she begins abusing him, he gets out his mobile to call the police and she immediately says "you see, your on your mobile when you drive im gonna tell the police." The woman then simply drives off shouting racial insults.

Was a......you guessed it big boat of a ford falcon; needless to say he took the plate number and reported it to police and insurance company.

my 2cents (story form)

when I was on my p's a few years ago, staying at my gf's place I hear this loud as phuk crash out front like 6am. go out to inspect and my beloved (back then) vs commy is now the size of a barina from being squashed between the tree i was parked behind on a nature strip and some old like ea falcon. turns out the driver was

1. drunk

2. suspended liscence

3. no insurance

4.a bogan

I got his details and i knew they were right cos the cops had the same ones that they checked on the spot, got my car valued and he agreed to pay me out. met with him 3 weeks later he gives me cash (must have got a loan or sumthin dilligaf)

i wrote him a reference for his court case a week later :)

everyone i knew couldnt believe that he paid up, so i spose it depends on individuals morals at the end of the day

    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf

    • Well, yeah, the RB26 is definitely that far off the mark. From a pure technology point of view it is closer to the engines of the 60s than it is to the engines of the last 10 years. There is absolutely nothing special about an RB26 that wasn't present in engines going all the way back to the 60s, except probably the four valve head. The bottom end is just bog standard Japanese stuff. The head is nothing special. Celicas in the 70s were the same thing, in 4cyl 2 valve form. The ITBs are nothing special when you consider that the same Celicas had twin Solexes on them, and so had throttle plates in the exact same place. There's no variable valve timing, no variable inlet manifold, which even other RBs had either before the 26 came out or shortly afterward. The ECU is pretty rude and crude. The only things it has going for it are that the physical structure was pretty bloody tough for a mass produced engine, the twin-turbos and ITBs made for a bit of uniqueness against the competition (and even Toyota were ahead on the twin turbs thing, weren't they?) and the electronic controls and measuring devices (ie, AFMs, CAS, etc) were good enough to make it run well. Oh, and it sounds better than almost anything else, ever. The VR38 is absolutely halfway between the RB generation and the current generation, so it definitely has a massive increase in the sophistication of the electronics, allowing for a lot more dynamic optimisation of mapping. Then there's things like metal treatments and other coatings on things, adoption of variable cam stuff, and a bunch of other little improvements that mean it has to be a better thing than the RB26. But I otherwise agree with you that it is approximately the same thing as a 26. But, skip forward another 10 years from that engine and then the things that I mentioned in previous post come out to play. High compression, massively sophisticated computers, direct injection, clever measuring sensors, etc etc. They are the real difference between trying to make big power with a 26 and trying to make big power with a S/B50/54 (or whatever the preferred BMW engine of the week is).
