Hey guys,

I just got a call from my mate who just had his car stolen.

It was taken between 8pm to 10pm tonight from a gym in St Albans. Fitness Health 101 or something along those lines.

The car has registration XRA 254. It's a burgundy R32 GTSt with type m skirts and rear pods and a GTR front bar. The pod, side skirts and front bar are painted in satin black while the rest of the car is burgundy. Ah.. wheels are black AVS model 5s in 17x9 +19. Only the fronts were fitted with these wheels, rears were some silver stockies.

Car was fitted with basic mods, a no holes front mount intercooler, 3" custom exhaust, RB25 turbo and a Nardi Deep Corn steering wheel.

The car's been reported stolen, but it'll be awesome if people could keep an eye out for this car. If you spot it, call the police please.

I don't know if there's anything else I should mention. But below is a picture of the car.

I'd post more, but it's a mates car and I don't have any more.

I've seen this car getting around the St Albans area a bit. What a shame, it knows how to move.

Does your friend go to Vic Uni? I think I've seen it parked in the student carpark

I hope it's recovered unharmed. I'll let a couple of my Melbourne friends know.

Cheers

Thanks heaps. We're all into cars here and I know that when I go for a drive, where ever it's to, I take notice of other modified/imports on the road so any extra eyes I can turn with this thread will be awesome.

Chanz, I'm not sure whether the car's ever parked at VicUni, but my mate goes to Swinburne Hawthorn.

Any help is appreciated.

man whats goin on...ive heard about so many imports getting pinched from the western suburbs. Makes me worry as im tryign to sell my car and dont want people to just call to suss it out only to come back to steal it.

Yeah, the amount of stories I've heard lately of people's cars being stolen, broken into.. It's unbelievable.

My mate goes to Swinburne so you definitely would've seen it from time to time.

There haven't been any updates on the car since its been taken..

Thanks guys.

As above, the car's been found at a local park stripped of all the wheels including the Nardi deep corn and random bits and pieces. Indicators, gear boot, oil and radiator cap? Everything else seems good.

The thief obviously owns a 32 and needed those parts..

But thanks for keeping an eye out everyone. What goes around comes around in the end.

ya i guess...its just sad how people find it ammusing to rip people off....very low act....

Atleast the car was found in a decent condition....not burnt/written off...and glad its back to the right owner...

Yep, the easiest item to keep any eye out for would be the Nardi deep corn and the AVS Model 5 wheels. Specs are 17x9 +19, not many of them in those sizes at all. Originally white but painted black.

    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
    • Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
