it is insane that it still has your plates on it, and hes driving it around as if nothing were different......goes to show how useless the popo are at their job. any other poor prick in a skyline just driving by would have been pulled over at least once in all those journeys thru the area :angry:.

I say wait on the highway all day every day. wait for it to come by and run him clean off the road :thumbsup: (might not be the best for your car, but at least you will get it back and he will get his)

This is definitely what I would be doing.. well the waiting bit, not the running off the road part.

If you're still getting GOVIA notifications try and find a pattern to the toll crossings on a weekly basis. EG have they passed though late on a Monday night more than once? If so I'd be sitting on the side of the road just past the toll and wait it out. If it passes by follow it at a distance and note where it goes. I know it is easier said than done, but I also know how badly you'd want to get your car back. I'd be out there every night of the week if it were mine

Also note the last toll crossing each day is heading EAST through the LOGANLEA EAST Toll Point, so that'd be the side I would sit on. Would hate to be waiting on the other direction, only to see them heading home on the other side....

Jacky have you looked at boost lately? http://www.boostcruising.com.au/forums/index.php?showtopic=794138

Fingers crossed you've got your Skyline back, can't imagine the feeling in my gut if mine ever got taken away from me.

    • I'm firmly on the "zero compliance is good compliance" for FUCAs. I'd be looking to solid metal joints even if the primary reason for having them is because they facilitate the twist in the arm. I have never been more happy with the way the front suspension behaves than I have since I got rid of the FUCA bushes. Even the thin little (short lived) poly bushes in the Whiteline adjustables have too much compliance for my liking. It probably won't be long before I have sphericals nearly everywhere, probably including both top and bottom arms in the rear, and I'll start complaining about the increased costs for dental work. But I will be enjoying the driving more, I'm sure.
    • Plus, you'll get great experience in bedding in pads!
    • I have offset Nismo brackets so the fact the gktechs can pivot is less important to me. I have 170mm JIC arms with bushings - but they provide no adjustment and I'm not sure whiteline eccentric bushings will fit them (I don't want to ruin the bushings currently in them to find out). Ideally I want something with bushings + adjustment; hence why I'd like to find a pair of these. Unfortunately they aren't easy to find.
    • @Vee37 How much do you really care about finding these pads again? If your pads are quiet, work well and produce minimal dust, really isn't that enough? If you are set on finding the exact pads again, I suppose I'd do something like this -  Visit your local Jax, find out what brand of pads they carry. If the Jax workshop you previously went to had the pads on the shelf, then you can almost guarantee it will be of said brand.   I'm guessing you don't have the receipt for the previous work and pads. Can you visit a Jax workshop and see if they can look up your previous job to see what pads were fitted?  Still no luck? Put your stalker hat on, find the staff that used to work at the Jax store and ask them. Talk to local workshops, try to find out where the mechanics went to. Talk to Jax workshops, maybe they relocated to another workshop. When it comes to mechanics, its a small world. You'd be surprised how easy it is to track someone down. If these ideas don't work, shit will start getting crazy very quickly.... You could find out every brand and model of pad that fits that car... and try them individually ticking each off the list if it wasn't the one you were looking for.... If you go down this path your going to want to learn how to swap pads yourself, it is very easy, takes minimal tools and space. If you have room to park the car you have room to swap the pads. Plus you have the advantage of making sure all the brake hardware goes back in so they won't squeal!
