Hey all,

Last night I got home at about 7pm and parked my car in my carpark underground in the basement of my appartment building in southport. This morning I have gone down to get in it to take it to have my new bumper, side skirts, and rear pods fitted and noticed it was gone. took me 10 minutes to come to my sensus and admit to myself that it is actually gone.

The car is a Maroon R33 GTS model. Very distinctive skyline not like others, it has a black bonnet, black roof blending into the sides. GTR wing, LR style front bumper and a front mount intercooler on the front. The rego plates on it are SKY008 and it has a silver square fuel sticker cover. It also has black and silver rims very distinctive. It also has a red jetpilot sticker on the rear windscreen.

I will post pictures up of what it looks like at the moment.

EVERYONE BE ON THE LOOKOUT PLEASE AS IT IS VERY DISTINCTIVE.

Please contact me on 0402859795 for info or PM me instantly please.

Thanks,

Ben H

Update:

THE REWARD FOR THE RECOVERY OF MY CAR IS GOING TO SIT AT $1000.

*The car has apparently been spotted in brisbane near the springwood exit but for all we know it could be on the coast now or somewhere in Brisbane. Any information on the car would be very much appreciated.

Yeah I bought it at the start of last year for 8k and have spent around 4k on it but its only insured for 8 which sucks. So yeah everyone please keep an eye out. was able to get the passenger window deflector off the ground that they must have ripped off. hopefuly get prints off it.

Much gheyness, I hate hearing these stories. Is it a "secure" underground carpark? The Gold Coast definitely seems to be getting hit pretty hard at the moment.

A GTS with 4 stud wheels and a FMIC, did it have a turbo conversion? It might help with identifying parts if that's the case.

In any case I'll keep an eye out around the Brissy northside!

If only they had known then they could have postponed :P

on a more serious note - will keep an eye out

*EDIT*

I take back my plus one, and would rather say:

You should HAVE spent that first 4 grand on AN alarm system man. Hope you find it in one piece.

I can't second bad spelling/grammar, sorry. But I do hope you find your car.

    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
