Hey guys

my car was stolen from "the Hill" in newcastle either late last night or early this morning.

Its a 1995 maroon skyline, r33 and has a full top secret body kit on it(the ebay kind) running on stock rims.

This has annoyed me very much as it seems to be the only thing of value that i currently own.

The number plates are BLA 58Y

If you see the car and/or any1 in the car please contact

0423828980

Thankyou.

MY CAR HAS BEEN FOUND!!! yay

The police gave me a call not long saying that they where just in cop chase with the guy driving my car though carrington.

The drivers side mirror is smashed, back tires are useless( burnouts id say) and the ignition key hole thingo is f@*ked. which i hope can be fixed with ease.

Also the police officer said they no who the guy was and that they found a pair of his socks in the car..bit wierd, but hopefully thats enough evidence to get the guy as he apparntly bolted fromn the car when he lost them on the straights through carrignton.

So all in all, a stressful 2 days, but im so god damn happy that its back. And my car aint coming back to newcaslte till i get a lock up garage and a better immobilser then what ever was in it to start with.

Good news mate; sucks about the damage but good that you get her back in the end. Make sure you get a good alarm from a reputable installer; and think about putting a hidden killswitch to the fuelpump somewhere too; do that afterwards so only you know where it is.

    • This is a real nostalgia trip for me, I mean SK Bilsteins? I ran those lol Good times.  Good work Duncan, it's not an easy job in many respects. I'm sure the family appreciates it. 
    • It's not a dumb question. I was circling this idea myself. User error is always possible!
    • Nope. The seal is in the drive. A new cable would just fill up and continue to convey oil to the speedo head. To check if this is what is happening, take the cluster out, dismantle the speedo and have a look. You probably don't even have to dismantle it. If there is oil coming up the cable, the drive into the speedo will be grossly greasy. I had to manually (and delicately) clean the gunk out of my speedo.
    • Thanks for the quick response mate, and I agree Nismo 555s, Z32 and high flow 2871 in OP6 housing (run by PowerFC) would all be "period correct" and should be a simple, reliable and reasonably quick track car.
    • It is normal for a speedo to read 0-10% high (unfortunately), intended by manufacturers and ADRs (although not in this case) to ensure your speedo does not read low if your tyres are worn. Speaking of which, what size tyres do you have on the rear, and what does they tyre placard say you should have? you can use this https://tiresize.com/calculator/ to determine what % difference that is causing Personally, when I buy tyres for a car I buy a size that will bring the speedo back to being more accurate; it if it reads 5% high I buy tyres that are 5% larger diameter. If you had an electronic speed sender like R33 onwards, the other option is to add a speedo adjuster but that won't work in R32. Finally, you  might be able to find a different sized gear for the speedo sender but that will be limited to what already exists (and I don't know what sizes do)
