Hi all, I know we get endless thread on stolen vehicles ... but I'm compelled to post up my bad luck, and good luck, this morning.

My motorbike was stolen and recovered this morning. Witnessed a very suspect commodore leaving the neighbourhood ... a maroon VR or VS with silver/grey on the lower doors/bumpers. Asian occupants in the Woodville North/Regency area. Can people keep their eyes out for this?

Basically, I left for work at 4.20am this morning and my bike was still parked in the driveway in front of Tracy's car. I thought it was odd that a chair I had close to my bike the day before had been moved away from my bike. But the bike was still there. Went to work, and got a call from the wife at about 10am that my bike missing. Ended up that it was hidden in the nextdoor neighbours yard!?!?! Turns out after a failed attempt to break the steering lock on the bike, or remove the ignition barrel, they thieves tried dragging the bike away .... with the steering lock still on! Obviously they hid it nextdoor behind a tree and behind some bins. I bolted home and recovered the bike. Its now safe back in the garage, with some added security on it.

Still not happy that my pride and joy, my baby of 10 years has been molested. I've had this bike longer than my first marriage lasted :P Cops have just left, so they could sight the bike and report it as being recovered.

But I'm just itching to get my hands on the wannabe thieves.

Good to hear that you recovered your bike but sad thing is that someone tried to steal it and in the failed attempt they have caused what sounds like some major damage. Hope that they don't target your car next, that would be majorly f**ked

Thats a close call. Glad you got it back before to much damage. Its interesting going to work at that time in the morning sometimes see commys full of blokes wearing beenies and hoodies. Obviously on there way home.

The car sits behind a gate, is alarmed, insured, immobilised, and a few other little tricks I'll not discuss ... plus the home is getting a few more surveillance cameras to protect the garage and another angle on the front yard.

Apparently the new system I'm looking at will also tap into my home alarm system. So when the alarm is 'on' and the motion sensors pick up movement up the driveway (or anywhere within our property), the security system will sms my mobile, so I can go online and monitor who is on my property ... whilst this is all being recorded.

Now I'll just need to get my hands on some remote mounted machine guns. :D

    • I used the radium thing, makes the whole parallel assembly a lot more compact compared to any other way of doing it 
    • Racetronix also sells those ethanol content sensor bypass blocks. Adapter, Flex-Fuel E85 Sensor High-Flow Bypass, In-line No Sensor (ADF-FLEX-NS): Adapters - Flex Fuel | Racetronix Ethanol content sensor are originally designed to be on the feed line. These bypass blocks are meant to be ran in the feed line and not return. The continental ethanol content sensors have a 3/8" ID and not 5/16". This is why they are ran on the return line directly in conjunction with a low threshold sampling value VS in the feed with one of these blocks.    Haha we think alike, I used both original feed/return for 8AN feed, and one of the Hicas lines as a 6AN return. I also capped off and left the other Hicas line as a spare. 
    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
