If any of you guys hear of or know someone who recently brought an rb25det out of the quokka please contact me immediately on 0404344855.

This motor was stolen from me and then sold in the quokka, i dont want to see some poor skyline owner get charged for recieving stolen goods or something stupid like that. Also it helps me retrieve my stolen engine and them get their money back as well as the idiot who did this to get charged with stealing or stealing a motor vechicle.

Thanks alot for your attention

you should advise all workshops and parts outlets that deal with lines and supply the engine number to the workshops. If the dude who bought it is oblivious of the fact that it is stolen he wouldn't be thinking of grinding off the e#.

Did you see the ad in the quokka, if so which week was it in. I'd like to see if my cousin could try to trace who owns, or owned the phone # used. More than likely a mobile which has been cut off now. But the phone company may have some details that could help.

thanks heaps for your support guys...

i know who stole it because he did an engine swap for me, he just decided he would palm off my engine and keep the money instead of letting me have it back..

the cops are already all over it and he doesnt have a leg to stand on, he even used his own mobile number and suburb in the quokka listing, he isnt the smartest of people...

ill post an engine number tommorrow...

it was advertsed in the quokka released on the 10/02/05 in the asian parts section under skyline, listed for $1500.. hes has/is trying to palm it off as a working engine when it has massive blow by due to a ring gone in number 1.

some people eh?

luckily you've got alot of ammunition on your side so prosecuting the guy won't be a problem, i'm sure as soon as the guy installs this engines he's going to see it doesn't work and then alot of word will go around of trying to fix it.

just for good measure whose the guy that ripped you off so that we all can blackmark anything him of his friends do ever again.

You realise that the worst thing the person can do is own up to buying the engine? If they do then the cops will give it back to you and the person who bought it will never ever ever get their money back.

It means if I bought the stolen engine thinking it was legit and I liked what I bought then found out later it was stolen off some guy I have never met, I would not give it back. Not because I am a bad person but because you would never get the cash back that you paid for it. Whats more important... You or someone else?

Tdawg, im sure the REAL owner of the engine is willing to pay the person to get the motor back man, i dont think hes just expecting someone to give the motor back and have them lose out on 1500$ ?

      V36 coupe manual wreck

      By Pete_Repeat · Posted

      Anyone want to make me an offer to take my v36/g37 3.7l manual coupe in full? Off memory it was low 100k km but the battery is flat so can't tell right now. What's wrong. I had engine problem's that led to a nice clunk. It made it home but it wasn't pretty for the last few kms. Happened under revs. Sounds like bottom end.. never got around to fully checking or fixing it so the car has sat still and unregistered for a few years. Minor bump in front end set the pedestrian protection under bonnet airbag off and that was meant to be repaired, but while waiting for the repair (parts to come) I got the engine problem. The rest of the car is in decent condition. All drive line is good. All interior is good. Leather interior. Wheels in good condition and decent tyres although the ps4s are likely a little too old now it's sat still. Colour of the car is pewter off memory, the dark grey colour. In Camden NSW. Would need a tray back pickup.

      Turn signal wiring question

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I started with the above in my head too, and I might be reading / thinking about what they want wrong, which is why I complicated it a bit further. Purpose I'm seeing is for the corner indicator to be on with headlights, and then if the indicator turns on it can still flash. The relay part above I can see working as required, except in the case of headlight is on, and indicator is on. The change over relay you've wired in would get signal from the indicator, and as it flashes would give power to the globe from the indicator, but as it flashes off, power comes from the headlight, which would cause the indicator to be constantly on when headlight is on, even while indicator change over is flashing. That is unless we don't care if it flashes or not if the headlight is on? I guess that's an OP clarification.

      Speedo and odometer reading super slow r34gtt a/t

      By VicFlo · Posted

      HI, Ive got an r34 gtt sedan A/T. The instrument cluster went out and I replaced it with another A/T everything visually looks the same and all the gauges work now with the exception of the speedometer and odometer. The speedo will stay pinned at zero until I'm going about 55kmh and then it'll say Im going about 5kmh. my odometer seems to be tracking at about a 1/10 of what it should. If I go 1km it'll say I've only gone 0.01. Appreciate any and all help. Ive tried searching through the forums reddit and a local fb group. The only info I think I've found is that some cars didnt come equipped with TCS (mind is) and the clusters may be different between those? I've also installed a brand new VSS and no joy obviously. TIA.
