SAU- don't go SOR :P

Post from me from 1addicts.

Gents,

Car was broken into today at Ellis Brook reserve( took the pup for a hike on a day off to keep me sane!).

Given that it is a minimum 35min loop, and there is one road in and out I suspect the thief sits in the first car park and waits for a target, they then raid the car while you are up the top. One of them keeps watch whilst you are coming back down (easy vis of both paths), whilst the does the break in and then ducks off if interrupted, or they both take off when complete.

We ran most of the loop and popped out down a drop off as my pup was loosing her shit trying to get back(not bad for a puppy!). I thought she just wanted water but she was sussing out what happened. The guy then moved his car and I snapped his reg. he then approached us at which point my dog got aggressive as I had already put her on the scent.(6000years of breeding ftw).

All in all, I'm out a few k, and can only warn you guys. Cops won't do a thing even with the information provided.

If anyone hears of an iPad 3(bricked or jail broken, ran two diff remote wipes lol), with Ryan. M. C(xxxx, name removed), and the priceless items that were in the vehicle, reward is available.

Reg of the thief( or accomplice) <REGO PLATES REMOVED BY MERLI>*, blue getz.

Yes and yes, out that way. If you could get your mate to PM or email me, wouldn't mind finding out how similar it was, police might take more interest in the details of the alleged if there are multiple police report numbers associated(if the vehicle wasn't stolen!)

    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
