Hi All,

It comes with great sadness that this morning I had a phone call from the new owner that my previous Skyline (which i sold around 2 months ago) has been stolen at 5:15AM this morning in the suburb of Darch. I loved that car to bits and many of you have seen it on cruises and have known how clean that skyline was. The reason why I am posting this even though its not my car anymore, is that these thief's need to be caught and brought to justice.

It seems like they knew were it was, came and just drove it off. Keys were NOT stolen and it had a laserline alarm/immobilisers installed as well as a autowatch pin keypad. There was no glass at the scene, so it leaves me wondering if they pryed open the window and press the button to open the passenger door. Even if this occured the alarm would of went off either by the motion sensors or the door sensor when it was opened, this seemed to not deter them.

Its a distinct car, (anyone who has seen it before would recongnise it) with white P1 buddy club rims on it, lowered, Front mount with the mpsec front bar that has the middle bit cut out and slotted rotors all round. Number plate is 1DPB 625. It also has a Japanese sticker, with three Japanese characters on the top middle of the rear window., it also has a very slight cracked driver side indicator and small scratch on the passenger side door.

I will post photos tonight when I get home to help identify the car, I don't have any photos with me at the moment.

I have a feeling these guys are somewhat professional to get the car going with ease despite system in place to help stop them.

I have included its mod list below, incase you see things pop up in the for sale thread/quokka

I am devasted even though its not my car, alot of blood, sweat and tears went into this car, and the thought of it being thrashed, smashed and maybe even chopped up is bringing me close to tears.

If you have any info on it, please give me a call on 0434 513 444 or pm me on here.

Cheers guys!

Sorry to hear about this mate. Always sad when a Skyline is stolen, or any other car for that matter.

You said the alarm system is overkill right? I.e. you spent a lot on it? I'm not being rude or anything, but maybe this was an inside job in the sense that the new owner organised for it to be stolen so he could claim on insurance? I mean, i doubt this is the case; just a suggestion.

Regardless, I hope the car is found :)

That could be be the case, but unfortunately the new owner had yet to buy any insurance...

I still don't understand how they started to so easily, with the system I had in it should of made it very difficult. Unless they just chucked it on the back of a tilt tray truck?

Unless they just chucked it on the back of a tilt tray truck?

This seems most likely to me, I highly doubt they got into the car without setting off the alarm, bypassed the keypad and disabled the immobilizer, all without the keys.

Ahhh some people really should have been swallowed :( Sorry to hear mate, I'll keep an eye out.

I used to drive it to curtin when i had her. usually parked her at the loading zone bay near 408 abacus.... was the best spot as no one could park next to her and leave dents in the doors, when they opened theirs...

f**k man......im nearly in tears ......

Who the fck would do that....

I will be keeping a massive eye out, and will take pictures if i see it my phone is always ready to take pics.

I work in lansdale/fremantle, so i drive alot, so im most likely to see it if it is driving around.

Feel for you.

My old car got broken into a while ago, they stole My brand new deck/sub/speakers :( worth around 2k :(

heard on the radio today that a stolen white skyline was in a cop chase that ended in a crash?

Yep, that may be the one.

Police contacted the new owner, asked for pictures to 100% identify thats it the one... just waiting on the phone call to confirm... sigh i hope there isnt too much damage..

Not surprised they crashed it.. probably didnt realise or didnt know how to handle a car with a two way and side slid it into a pole or something....

Sorry to hear mate, makes me cringe to hear this every time a Skyline is stolen - these lowlifes need to be KILLED slowly friggin a%%holes.. How many of u got an in-car-GPS system which sends a sms to you when the car is moved.. I'm getting one ASAP. Most likely a tow-truck job, these bastards I'm sure wont go to lengths to disable the GPS, they'll just load the car up and flee..

Damn ya'll hope this prick didn't do to much damage to the car, if its written off, then maybe we can do a fundraiser/ cruise to get the rightfull owner back in a skyline, say $50 from everyone on the cruise thats just an idea.

Who else is up for that and to start ideas on the situation.

are you high man, i aint got $50 to give to some one to buy a new car, he should have had insurance.

sure it sucks but them the brakes,

i reckon the 2 way would have been a bit of a suprise for him, specially in a get chase

    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new  
    • Nissan needs to forget about building SUVs in every size possible and bring back the damn Silvia/200sx duo to compete with the 86/brz. Maybe with the Honda type r motor pointing the right way
    • Good to see you followed your heart, got your dream car and have it pretty well sorted out now. I think anyone can get caught out with a seller not being 100% honest about a cars problems. Can relate to all the electrical issues, had similar issues with my first car (mk2 escort) ages ago
    • I just bought the Nexus S3 for my gtt, haven’t installed it yet as I’m collecting parts to do everything at once…so far spent $14,000 The Nexus is nearly future proof
