Hey everyone, unfortunately I have to share the news my 34 sedan has been stolen from my apartment parking garage in Docklands. Feeling super anxious and unsafe now after this has happened.

Police report and insurance are all done but obviously getting that car back is what i want most. It was last spotted driving around Seaford the past week. Was spotted parked in Woolworths Seaford as well as driving up and down Railway Parade and Hartnett Drive.

Plates are TKYO. Silver (KV2) R34 Sedan).

If anyone spots it please call 000 (This was requested by Frankston police after I informed them the car is being driven around their area) so HWP can dispatch to the location.

Hrm. If you hadn't said it was being driven around I would have said it would be in parts by now.

Hopefully the dipshits are not very bright dipshits and keep driving it around.

Yeah I'm so confused. I had so many people saying its probably in parts or sent overseas. But then I got messages that people saw it being driven and now I'm so confused how it hasn't been caught yet. If anything it feels more horrible knowing someone is out there driving it.

Man, that sucks. I hope you get it back. You must feel violated having this happen at home.

What was the situation? Was it an open car park or in a cage? Any security on the car? Immobiliser, GPS tracker or so?

Apartment living can be a bit f**ked like that. A colleague of mine had his bikes stolen. Camera footage showed people coming in with a van at 2am or so in the morning. Not wasting any time. Going through with a bolt cutter opening cages and taking whatever is easy to grab. Apparently covering the cage to hide the contents would have been enough to make these guys skip it.

I presume with a car it's a bit more targeted though unfortunately.

All the security on the car has been disabled by them which makes it more difficult. Car was parked in a "secure" shared car park under the apartment building.

This is my first ever stint at apartment living and its fair to say that I am currently looking to get out of the city and get back to somewhere with a garage and is safer in general.

Additional update, the car has now been seen again driving around Nepean Highway and Station Street in Seaford on Wednesday/Tuesday between 2pm and 3pm. Someone is literally driving the car like it's theirs. I wish I could go down and look for the car myself but now I have no car which makes that difficult..

    • And....if that could be true for all R34 GTTs, then it might be good. But in reality it is not really any better than my standard instruction to "go out and have a look at it yourself, and wave a tape measure around" etc etc, because as soon as you have any adjustable arms, or coilovers with smaller diameter springs, or tyres that have any bulge that goes out further than the rim, etc etc, then the simple version of the information is still potentially misleading. Plus, nothing in this is static. Everything is moving. At the rear the wheels swing inward at the top as they go up, so the clearances on the inside change as the suspension is compressed. At the front it's even worse. And then you have the difference in absolute wheel position in the arch can move around more, or less, depending on how compliant the bushes are. If, like me, you have sphericals on the front caster rods (and on the FUCAs also, but these are probably less dominant when it comes to wheel position), then your wheel will swing forward/backward under loads, as well as up/down, as well as steering angle. You end up having the simple numbers with 17 caveats/footnotes for each.

    • Actually PowerFC is probably the easiest to get basic data from, it comes with a hand controller and display so you don't need to remember to pack a laptop every time you drive. It also has a PC based viewing/logging option if required. Nissan used consult on these because back in the mid 80s, ODB was just a glint in a standard's body's eyes.  They switched to OBD shape around 2000 (my 2001 Cima had OBD shaped but not OBD compliant port) With the standard ECU there is a cable and software available to give basic data too, I think it is called Nissan Data Scan or s
