To everyone saying "Oh it must be an inside job"; May I just give another opinion on the matter. All it would take is for your uncle to pull into his house and multiple people will see he has not one but two GTRs.

And it's not like they have to look very hard for the keys, where do most people put their keys? On the kitchen bench, above the fridge, a key rack, a bowl next to the door,

Because cars are becoming increasingly painful to steal without a key, why not just get the key? ;)

So in the end, put the keys in your sock drawer.

I agree with the inside job part; but I won't be hiding my keys. If you're away on holidays, or at work; by all means, but day to day; no way.

The last thing I want is a pissed off crim, with a knife he picked up out of the knife block in the kitchen, in my bedroom, with my sleeping missus, next to the room where my child is sleeping; demanding to know where the car keys are.

If they're prepared to enter an occupied house to obtain the keys, they're not just opportunists. They are likely prepared to use force to get what they want.

Take the f##ken keys; I'd rather lose a car than have my family terrorized and scarred for life by the experience.

In the unlikely event they're caught; you'll then have to sit in court listening to their soft c##k, druggie, loser f##ken sob story about how daddy didn't give them enough cuddles when they were five, and then watch them walk out with a good behaviour bond; because some pissweak magistrate felt sorry for a crim.

Then you get to wonder if/when they're coming back...

I love my car; but I love my family much more AND I'm a realist.

To the OP, shame about the cars, good that they both showed up, (at least the insurer can't drag their feet on payouts) and glad that was all that happened when the a-holes broke in to steal them.

So, a thief, or two breaks into your house, you give them the keys, then stab all of them in the back while they are attempting to drive away.

any penalties? because i know, if i see another car thief, a knife is going into his back.

any penalties?

Yeah that's called murder. Two wrong's don't make a right and before you say self defence. You just said you gave them they keys and then you would stab them in the back. This would imply that they are leaving, therefore, no more threat. No more threat = murder. A car isn't worth your life and it's certainly not worth taking theirs for, either.

oh, so threat to property is not threat anymore?

in this time and age when the police don't give a shit anymore, these thieves need real retribution, broken legs, arms, ribs, paralysis, that's how things should be done.

So no killing, just protecting property.

Dont get me wrong if a thief was in my house in the middle of the night, i would give them my keys no problem to avoid being attacked. Also anything else that you would consider a possession. Having said that i would also stab anyone that was invading my home where my child and wife sleeps without a problem IF i had to. Good thing i have a big arsed noisy dog to alert me of these sorts of things. The way i see it cars and all that other bullshit can be replaced, if a burglar is in my home i see that as an attempt at hurting my family.

Basically- i have a blade in my room, and i would protect the set of stairs where my family is, they could take anything from downstairs etc, but where my family sleeps is mine to protect,

I'd like to think the police would treat a robbery of an occupied house more seriously too. The knowledge of occupants surely changes the level of intent.

My example is probably the worst case scenario, but I also worry when I hear people saying "Yeah, if someone gets up in my shit; imma stab his ass with the knife under mah pillow" (not implying that's what you're saying).

I think people sometimes imagine it'll play out like it does in a movie; ordinary guy takes down vicious crim and saves the day.

If you're well versed in hand to hand combat that would be great, but if you're not, woken from a deep sleep, with a weapon in your hand; you could easily be giving a weapon to a better prepared attacker.

Not saying don't fight; everyone would in the right situation, especially if the stakes are high enough.

Enough off topic from me; I'd like to hear some good news about cars being repaired/replaced.

Its a very good point, i stand by what i said though. And thats if someone robs me, they can have whatever they want. But if they want to try and step into a bedroom up the stairs where my family is, i will quite happily die trying to protect them. As a father and a husband that is my job. I also think that being sleepy wouldnt effect you too long considering the adrenaline levels that we all know happen even in a petty pub fight, let alone a home invasion. Having said all that, i have a big noisy dog which helps me with these situations and ive never had anything stolen from my house let alone burgled. (bought my parents house, lived her since i was born) Basically i like to think that its something i will never have to deal with, being they have to go through my dog first, which would be a noisy affair, in which time i would be fully prepared and have the police called.

Edit- Basically its a very scary thought, and i think most people with families will do whatever they have to so that someone doesnt get hurt.

So your uncle lives in Bennet Springs estate in Beechboro, WA........and he has 2 new R35's...

If its a new estate I'm not surprised something like this happened - I always hear bad things happen in these new estates...

Welcome to Australia Alvin, where the criminal has more legal rights and importance than the victim. Thankfully the British have come to their senses and now your allowed to f**k up whoever tries to steal or damage your property within the confines of your property. Hopefully this will come to Australia soon and finally home owners can start to defend themselves, their families and their homes without fear of legal reprocussions. As far as i'm concerned if someone breaks into your home you dont know whether they are to rape your missus, steal your car or kidnap your kids you simply dont know what they want and must act accordingly and as far i'm concerned if they end up with a knife in their back or a bullet in their head all the better for the rest of us. I'm not prepared to risk the physical well being of my family just because some out of touch judge on his high horse says so.

I know how the system works my brother got out of an armed robbery charge scot free just because he had it tough growing up.

Edit: I have lived in bad neighbourhoods and good ones where nothing bad ever happens. Its easy for those of us who live in safe places to say that this is all too much, but when you have lived in places with people coming into your home to steal things or to visit hurt on your family you begin to see things very differently. For those of you who still live in a places anything like that I would agree with Cannabiscorpse and say your best defence is big scary looking dog.

You would have to think its only a matter of time until a scumbag like that (thieving cars, home burgling etc) meets someone that is overly paranoid about their family and can carry themselves well. OR meets Mr hick with a pump action.. You can only hope anyway. All i know is im not going to put myself, wife & daughter in danger for someone nicking my car etc, but when they enter a home- thats different. Like you Taz, all that stuff enters my head about my family being hurt. Get in first if you can.

Self defense works great when they are bigger than you. Otherwise just make up an equally sad story that it was dark and you were scared and the thief said he wanted to penetrate you etc etc. If its your word against his I know who the jury would be siding with.

hey guys sorry i havent kept you posted ive been busy ive read all the comments and i got bad news both cars are write offs the silver one has body damage due to hitting a pole and curb jumping and the red one has gear box problems the red gtr only had 525km's when it was stolen which mean the motor wasnt run in yet for the gear box is fried they took it up to top speed all for a stupid joy ride :( northside nissan has told the insurance company that they are write off's good news my uncle is getting rein-burst 2 new gtrs

afaik, dead people can't sue.

    • Driveability will be about the same with either externally venting BOV, or no BOV at all. Perhaps worse one way than the other, with me thinking that the definitely more flow going through the AFM through a venting BOV more likely to cause rich stalls than the perhaps more flow that the AFM might read on reversion. There is no such thing as "turbo damage" from not having a BOV at stock, or even quite a lot higher than stock, power levels. You need a big turbo with a lot of mass spinning hard getting a horrible slowdown from a slammed shut throttle before there is anything like the shaft loads required to damage things. Not an issue on small turbos. The ONLY 2 reasons that Nissan put a recirc valve onto the RB were: It is a bypass valve. It is open when under vacuum. When not on boost, it bypasses intake air forward around the compressor, which unloads the compressor, allowing the turbine to sping more freely, making the whole lot a bit more efficient when just puddling around. Throttle response should also be faster via the shorter, smaller diameter BOV pipe (when in NA, ie before the BOV closes and boost is building) which is nicer for driveability. Emissions. The reversion causes CO pulses. Eliminate the reversion (or at least, keep it away from the AFM) and you don't get that. The stalling/driveability aspect could have been tuned around, as shown one example of by dose above, if Nissan hadn't put a recirc valve on. Many many turbo engines before the RB had no BOV. They did not stall. See the RB30 turbo as an example. Nistune is definitely better than just stock ECU. It allows you to access and change things that are not excellent on the stock setup, and allows you to do mods like put decent injectors in, relocate the AFM, put a bigger turbo or even cams, etc, on, change to coil swith completely different swell needs, etc etc. All the things that you might need or want to do 25 years after the car was new. Aftermarket replacement ECU is obviously better again, because it gives you even more freedom from the constraints of the stock ECU. I won't be needing to go any further than Nistune though, for the new turbo in the 250ish rwkW region I'm going to, with big injectors, and most other things being stockish.
    • Lucky the prp block is supposed to be released next weekend 
    • Wow guys thank you very much for the HUGE info :-) @GTSBoy I have like 30 minutes if test drive with that car/engine and it not stalled once. IMO it ran very smooth so i guess it was not that bad(but asi i said it is stock) That atmo BoV is worse than no BoV or in my case or it is/will be the same? Cuz frankly i rather have little whooosh sound than that sututu 😄 But either way the less harmfull for engine/turbo the better(if the stock is not an option right away) Yeah about that rebuild i talk with guy who will be doing swap and custom pipes...i think i can get stock BoV or get aftermarket which will function the same. Yeah i looked at that R35 option and i try ask my mechanic more about that if he knows. The engine has stock ECU but i can get Nistune for it. On that stock it runs quite well...but i have limited time with it so rly dont know. Ecumaster is this https://www.ecumaster.com/  It is not some dodgy backyard ECU :-)  @MBS206 Yeah but it will be better to have Nistune than the completely stock ECU no? About that "same" atmo/no BoV. The drivebility would be the same? I dont know but i kinda guess that amto BoV would cause more problems than no BoV in my case? Or is the same? You just "change" one sound for the other? Yeah i read many many many topic about hurting the turbo. But no one know anybody that would 100% tell that his turbo/engine blows/get damaged by not running BoV. Of course turbo would be little happier IMO if it has BoV ..but if you do not trash i think i should be good. And as you can see iam already trying to get this right...just working what i have right now :-) Yeah iam kinda the same...i dont want nothing loud and frankly iam not liking that sututu noise that much 😄 i rather have little bit of "whooosh" or no sound at all. Of course in my case it si a completely another world when you came tu Turbo car with open air box and no BoV and you driving the N/A ...all i hear is engine. Here? I heard turbo/sucking and that sututu 😄 @Yeetus So in my case it is really no difference to run no BoV or some atmo BoV like GReddy FV2? The car would drive the same and has "the same" little problems? As i wrote above i kinda thinked that atmo BoV with stock MAF would cause more problems...but then again i dont know much about no BoV either :-)  So to avoid stalling i "cant" just put neutral on stop lights like from higher rpm? Or? Yeah iam already looking for ECU :-)  Yes iam at the same side with thar R35 MAF :-)  @Dose Pipe Sutututu Thank you i (my mechanic/tuner) will look into that) Guess iam taking the Nistune at least :-) 
    • Here's the workaround with Nistune I was talking about, just add in more timing on the decel table And play around with the fuel cut & recovery, it's enough to stop it from stalling on a decel
