Opps sorry,

no I only found what was left of the car, motor/gearbox. and a pile of parts.

The car has alarm, a hidden fuel pump switch, and battery isolated.

Also the car was in locked security yard with 4 infra read cameras,

I guess they didnt realise the cameras were there

Also, I do believe we took out an import specialist stealing gang.

well at least the cops finally caught some of the a$$holes, must have been a pretty serious mob to nab it with all that security.

Not really, doesnt come accross like that when we nab them.

The car was left un attended with all security at spare house back in brisbane, in a decent neighbourhood.

The property is in large and well away nfrom street, and if a thief has all the time in the world, sooner or later they will get it going.

However saying that I only drive that car twice a year, and only drove it the week prior to it getting stolen, so someone must have spotted me, and either followed or when searching the locality. The thieves were aware of the car history and build, somehow.

So, yes. it was targetted and not a random thing.

Ok, I've been out of town and was brief on some recent developement of this event.

Before anyone assume anything, I donot condone violence, or participate in anyway or form at all.

Apparently,

The "mechanic" who stripped the car, had petrol tossed in his face and was set alight.

He now reside in the PA burns unit and is unrecognisable.

I'm pretty sure this is what is "known" as a "screaming candle"

I will keep everyone update as thing progress, but I hope it all history by xmas.

I'm a strong believer of karma

I still remember you Belgarion, been a long time since we last met, how have you been?

Johnny, plenty happen on the night that I didnt tell Vicky, but some funny shit. Well to summarize it up, I've never seen a bunch of criminals who were so happy to see the police. They litterally, ran over to the paddy wagons and lock themselves inside.

And for the record, I didn't lay one finger on them

As for thieves I'm pretty sure they're just as prevalent everywhere. Its just you don't hear about it, that's all.

I'm still surprise that these fellas rolled up to my place, and think they were going to get away with it.

Saying that, I'm wondering what is happening or where is the thief who drove the car out of my yard?

Now I have a dilema of what to do whit a pile of parts and running gear.

Might go put it in some classic convertible, like a 356 speedster or a 190sl.

be interesting with around 600hp atw with one of those.

      I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?

      I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
