Stolen 180sx

[IOWNU]

Hey everyone,

Someone stole one of my cars. It was a ca18det 180sx, from the Thomastown area, near Pipeworks, from a panel shop. Fence was ripped off. It was uncomplied, unregistered.

Car was silver, the front passenger side quarter panel was a mismatched silver, the rear driver side had a space saver. Prominent "MACHNE" street racing stickers in blue/silver on the rear windscreen and sides.

Stolen anywhere between Sunday 7pm and this morning 8am.

Any info would be great, just keep your eyes open for the car, or cheap parts.

I hope I find them before the police.

Thanks,

Ali.

Thanks.

We have some footage of the perpertrators, but it is not clear enough to make out faces/regos etc. Does anyone know someone that is an expert at "zooming in" or analysing security footage?

Still looking, the cops aren't much help at all, called em at 9.30am, they rocked up at 4.45pm. Stayed for 5 mins, left.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

It was a small 4 door car, MAY have had a sunroof.

Looked like one of those older model Corollas or something similar.

hoorah !!! great news there !!!

[Paradizzle]

f*cking sweet man! good stuff. Hopefully all ok!! Where was it found? Hope you still find the f*ckers who did it!!!

[IOWNU]

Today got a call from the cops, saying that the car had been found in Glenroy, parked in a small sidestreet street. Had a word with a few of the residents, been parked there for 5-6 days already, so luckily the car was just taken for a joyride and not stripped and gutted.

When I got to the car, could notice some stuff missing, obvious damage but nothing to major, basicall car had been smashed on the passenger side quarter panel, turbo timer, tacho setup, Blow Off Valve were taken. Suspension was also damaged on impact, also, the driver side door was damaged slighlty. Other than that, no major damage.

So overall a good result, thanks to all those who kept an eye out....

PICS:

Smashed quarter panel/suspension

Some pretty rough hotwiring.

That's funny, I could have sworn there was a tacho or two there?

Where'd the BOV go?

Yeah still hope to find the culprits.....

Still good to have the car back though, now I can afford to do up my Skyline again!

[Paradizzle]

Damn, that damage is a bitch. Good news on getting the car back, just hopefully the guys slip up in selling the gear and you can find them.

But is good news mate, nice to see there is a 'happy ending', if you can call it that.

Yeah its pretty bad, but Im glad to have the car back, situation could have been a hell of alot worse. It was just shattering that the car was literally sold. No matter, once the car is fixed again, I'll be able to sell it quickly.

It's so odd that it was behind a fence and in a panel shop and yet stolen and taken for a joyride.. These kind of thefts mostly occur when young kids need a lift home and take the first available car off the street.

Let alone the fact that they already had a car (corolla or whatever)..
