I will admit to looking over my shoulder when leaving my car parked at work today... That's all I'd need

...with a sign on the inside of your window that says, "This car is protected by my pet snake 3 days a week - guess which day!"

its a horrible feeling knowing my pride and joy that i put so much effort and worked so hard for is now gone and by the sounds of it i wont get it back from what ive been told its probably been put in a container and will be shipped somewhere overseas. i wouldnt have a clue what car to get next :(

that's silly. Of course you do.

The exact same kind! Although perhaps not mp3...somethi boring and unremarkable. Like white for example :) works for me!

id love to get one again but im so scared now. but i cant think of anything else with that kind of power and handling capabilites around the same price or a bit more.

that is just unbelievable... absolute scum.

they will have definitely scouted your car. have you sold any second hand parts from your current or old car lately? told anyone new where you work?

try to post any details possible about the tow truck, there is a good chance that will appear again somewhere.

i cant recall, but i havnt sold any parts only buying parts. the thing is it could have been anyone working at the shopping centre its a big place for all i know one of the trolley collector guys could be in on it.

there isnt really any great details on the tow truck other than it was a white flatbed tow truck with nothing on it but it did look old and wasnt really in great condition and it had no number plates, the police have footage of it.

This might seem a tad paranoid and all but has anyone else noticed the disturbing trend of SAU forum members having their cars stolen????

We advertise on the forum what we drive, what it's spec's are, what we've got under the bonnet, in the boot and underneather; Lot's of us even advertise where we live down to the suburb, and where we work (without even noticing) perhaps we need to stop sharing so many details publically. I don't think anyone on here would do it but it doesn't stop someone signing up and just watching our posts and virtual garages.

scotty i really hope its found and all is well :(

this might seem drastic but chain the wheels to something like a pylon. like, big f**k off big chains

sounds silly but someone trying to cut through those would definitely look sus and attract attention from people

    • Latest round of updates on the car. I purchased and installed a SWS clutch slipper to help with 60ft times and got some second-hand good condition 275/40R17 Hoosier DR2 radials. Test and tune in November showed the tyres were an upgrade over my over 15 year old mickey Thompson's and I got a 1.8 second 60ft and pb et of 11.71 but even then, that run wasn't great due to rain and driver error (the event got called off 10 minutes later fast forward to the weekend just gone 25th of Jan and there was finally a break in the weather to let racing happen. The first run the track was slippery and only managed a 12.1@129 Second run the track was better and got a new pb et and mph: 11.54@131   Lith and I then worked out that I installed the previously mentioned clutch slipper incorrectly and its never been working, and I had just been dumping the clutch the entire time, we also noticed it was on street boost and not race boost. So I lined up for a third run with the car turned up in the first two gears, but the passengers side axle objected to clutch dumps and left the chat which stopped my weekend.   so there will be another attempt in the future once I replace the tyres as they rubbed and are stuffed now. but a low 11 should be on the cards.
    • Ceramic coating and heat shielding, you mean?
    • Turbos don't require pulling the motor apart so that's "easier". I would recommend the Nismo R3 turbos instead if you want to do stock twin turbo. It doesn't make as much power as the 2530s but it's only like ~50 whp off the mark and should have better response (ball bearing CHRA, slightly smaller turbo). A local that went with a Garrett G30 and 6boost manifold recently nearly burned his car to the ground after the hood insulator started melting and and burning so if you go single turbo I recommend doing a lot of research and validation work to make sure you don't do the same.
    • New rear lights, filler panel sprayed, cleaned and back together    before, during, after shots 😍
    • 100% is gyprock, I agree. Slip of the keyboard. Haha! I left my indicator bulbs out to save a bit of weight.
