Putting the feelers out. My Gf's R32 4door was stolen this morning from the Tea Tree Gully area, Around 3am - 8am.

The car sticks out like dogs balls; Hot pink, Vertex kit, Sunroof, 4door, R34 Stockies.... There are NO mods to this car but the head unit which was an alpine model. Oh, And an aftermarket steering wheel lol

Rego is YAV816 in Vic reg. Yes, Vic reg in SA. I helped her get the car from Vic and shes had it for around a month.

Whats even funnier besides theres no mods, Its Auto RB20det and has NO aircon. The sunroof seal has deteriated as well and looks ratty.

If anyone has ANY information about this car or seen it, Please contact me 0468373090.

Thanks guys :)

You guys in South Aus get the short straw re car thefts. Seems to me to be rampant.

I'd be looking for a feminine girl or a feminine guy to pin this one on.

Obviously the theifs thought it was "worked"........

bit of luck you get it back with a fully loaded 25/30.

Sorry to hear mate.

CARS BEEN FOUND!!!

Thank you so much for the ppl in the scene... This is the exact reason I dont drive a shitty Commodore;

Its just been dumped about 30mins from the TTG area; Everythings been taken (afaik)... I bought her acouple of Domokun plush toys for presents so I'm hoping they are still there lol

Thread can be locked :)

The car that they stole before has been printed and prints found, they also printed this one and found some.

Someone seen them dumping the first car and driving off in this around 4am. I drove past the first stollen car and was just a little old white Laser with L plates.

Car was found behind Para Hills shops, on a back street. No cameras near by.

Even when they do catch em sweet f uck all happens anyway

Yep welcome to oz

2nd worse car theft in the world !!

Not sure why anyone would steal a hot pink car and drive it around !! Wow idiots

At least they found it ? Not melted to the road

Think about the logic here (Well, Obviously there is none).

Stupid idiots steal a HOT PINK CAR. Mrs gets enough attention in it as it is. You steal a HOT PINK CAR and drive it around like its your own, Someones definently going to cotten on.

Luckily it was just dumped.. Looked as if they drove it fk all km and just got over it being stock and auto lol Wasn't burnt at all which was the worst case scenario.

    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later. 
    • Silly question, as I bet you've checked already, but the motor turns over by hand yes? I suspect Neil has a spare starter, though if not, I believe I have a spare R33 (or two) starter.
    • Yeah just run one of those posts to the Link like GTSBoy said. From google it looks like a "mishimoto boost controller" is a manual boost controller. Since you already have the link just buy any MAC valve and plumb it in where the mishimoto is now. Wires to the solenoid should come from the Link's / standard loom boost control wiring (I guess you have an r32, not sure if it is gtst or gtr, if it is GTR where is a 2 pin connector near the engine bay fuse box/injector resistor for that purpose, assuming the standard boost controller is gone)  
    • No. The ECU's hose is for a connetcion between the plenum (assuming single throttle body, not ITBs) and the ECU's internal MAP sensor. This is the primary load measurement of the ECU - so you need to get this one right. This has NOTHING to do with the boost contol. The wastegate also needs to see a boost signal - but it is actually far better for it NOT TO COME FROM THE PLENUM (again, assuming single TB, and not ITBs). This should come from the turbo's compressor housing (assuming there is a nipple on there, which there might well not be), or on the boost pipe somewhere between the turbo and the TB. On the pipe from the turbo to the intercooler is usually most convenient. The boost controller is then located between that boost source and the wastegate, ACCORDING TO THE CORRECT PLUMBING DRAWING FOR THAT BOOST CONTROLLER. There is no general diagram or instruction that will be correct for every case. Then the other ports on the plenum are for purposes such as Duncan described. If the boost controller has an internal MAP sensor, for a boost display, etc, then it will want to be hooked up there, alongside the ECU and the FPR.
