Stolen: White VE GTS Twin Turbo

[Tre-Cool]

Stolen from mates house in freo between midnight and this morning.

House has a deadbolt so pretty sure keys were not taken.

Call Jai on 0410 886 886 if seen.

This car would be VERY HARD to miss on the road!

[AGIT8D]

Fuck man I can't believe someone ganked this car.. Not cool.

[Brockas]

Fuck. Feel bad for Jai.

Will keep an eye out.

[yeahlow34]

Fuck, this is not good news. Will certainly keep an eye out - although car should stand out like dogs balls.

I feel horrible for asking this in such a situation :) buuuut I will anyway. The spoiler lip on the boot - is that from a VE Senator?

[AGIT8D]

Build details here mate:

Damn, unlucky! What do the plates mean? Hope he gets it back!!

[Daisy]

fuck, makes my radar detector and camera that was nicked last night seem insignificant now. really hope this doesnt end as a burntout wreck, seen it on the road a few times, seriously cool car. (side note can someone explain the number plate?)

[DTM-031]

if you saw him doing a skid, would you be able to remember those plates without writing them down instantly? ;)

part of the VIN i'm pretty sure. where did your stuff get stolen from??


how would they have stolen it without the key... tilt tray?
pieces of shit that steal/ruin people's hard earned posessions should be shot.

pieces of shit that steal/ruin people's hard earned posessions should be shot.stated not long ago on his stolen thread on ls1 that he cant find his spare key.
definately not possible for these cars to be stolen without keyfob with all the canbus

in regards to his number plate it states in his thread on ls1


Its one of those plates you cant quite remember from "the commodore that just flew past me".

Also happens to be the internal Holden Model number of the car (whack a VE on the front of the plate and youve got it.).

Just something random i guess!

Bloody brilliant idea!!

[Lozzle]

Daaaaaamn, Jai. Hoping it returns sound and safe.

Gutted for jai.

[jaybee]

pingpingpingpings who do this are absolute scum. hope they die in a fire.

Agreed.

If ya see the car anywhere, even in traffic.

and if you have the gonads, try and grab the keys out of the ignition.

Fuck that, pull the pingpingpingping out of the car and lay into him.*

*providing you have enough mates with you.

But seriously, sorry to hear about it hey, hopefully it is found in one piece and with the wankers still in the car for justice sake. Too many wankers out there stealing peoples hard earned!!!

[Tard Of War]

fark ill keep an eye out around my area...

[Scaf]

Fuck that sucks..
such a nice car.

[seductioN_]

i have seen this car around freo plenty of times.
beautiful piece of machine, but pingpingpingping's now days have no respect.
ill keep an eye out for it.
hopefully will be found in one piece.

[mitch26]

fuk thats so nice
will definetly keep an eye out

[XF Falcon]

FARK, i love that thing.

definitely keeping an eye out for him. :(

[Drift_R32]

shiiit poor bastard this thing is epic..fukn hope it turns up.

[Mistikal]

That's fucked mate... hope he gets it back.

Ross; where was your stuff pinched from? Home/Office/Plex?

[Macca]

Not 100% sure but saw a vehicle closely matching this description in innaloo today. had different plates on it but was low level flying down Liege street, was going to call cops but they were coming up behind it with lights ablaize. May be different car but wouldnt be many of these out there

[miss_petepie]

any more news on it? was it insured? :(

[FranZ]

That sux. :(

[Tre-Cool]

Car is insured, though it's highly likely Jai wont replace it.

Can't blame him really.

[esky]

why?

[dgenr8]

Wow... remembered my login :)

Yah not a peep outta the cops yet. Would have thought if it were being chased today they might have notified me?

Its a Phar Lap that thing... no SIDI v6 VE with lights have a chance of catching it. I can only hope the pingpingpingping inside it rolls it and burns inside of it.

Thanks for keeping a lookout lads :)

[DBLDOSE]

Feel sorry for you mate, would be cut if my 5k VL was stolen, let alone a $150k GTS, and you can't put a price on things you love...

[2JZA70]

pretty sure ive seen a V series commodore with those exact rims in mirrabooka parked out front of natives house will check if I see it there today!

[Sammish]

Very similar car seen on burnes beach road/marmion ave intersection this morning around 9am had 1a plates extremely wierd for a car of its age 1AGE *** Good luck mate looks like a nice machine

[RICEY]

Fuckin spewing Jai hope you get it back unharmed.

[Torquen]

a $150k GTS - you can't put a price on things you love...

You just did?? :confused:

To the OP, hope you get the car back mate. Would be devistated if it was me, best of luck :)

[dgenr8]

Sorry but I dont think they would have the know how to pull off a job like this... i just dont see how :)

Can you give any more info mate? Because as you said 1AGE is very sus for a VE as I had 1AJI back in 2001 ...... Any info is greatly appreciated

JK

[SSICK]

inside job for sure!

[TJ]

Thats a pretty big accusation to throw at Jai or his housemate, both of whom have been around the car scene for a very long time, and people I'd consider friends.

[SSICK]

cool bananas tj, although im not saying it was him or his housemate, jus someone who is close to them. i mean cmon.....missing spare key, needed a 4pt turn to remove it from the garage....

[TJ]

Perhaps - just feel the last thing Jai needs said to him that he did it.

[wormbo2]

playin with fire son!
a man respects 1 thing more than his vehicle... his mother!
so unless the old bird wanted it gone, i'd suspect something more plausible.

[Nic_A31]

Jai...I've never met you and don't know what you look like...but if i see this car (and at this point, you already have the car back) and I pull you out and beat you within an inch of your life and call the cops while I hold you face down on the ground...I do apologize in advance now.

[Sammish]

Can you give any more info mate? Because as you said 1AGE is very sus for a VE as I had 1AJI back in 2001 ...... Any info is greatly appreciated

JK

Not much more i can add mate i didnt notice any stickers/other marks that would confirm its this car i just saw a bombed VE with an inter cooler visible from the front. Didn't take notice of the wheels or roof (wasnt so interested in it until i saw this thread)

Sorry i can't offer u any more info.

[dgenr8]

Thanks mate. Other external identifiers are Evo Style Vortex Generators by SS Inductions. And Walkinshaw bonnet ornamnet.

Suckers to the fools who want this as a hail damage rebirther... didnt take quite the close enough look at mine then!

JK

[lazy6]

a tow truck driver mate of mine just pulled a ve gts out of the pines tonite

dont know what colour or if it was burnt he hasnt said much but it was missing tonight the wheels , brakes ,exhaust and seats.
Just hope it wasnt this one such a shame!

Here's hoping... who's the towie Neil?

[Tre-Cool]

exhaust would be a pointless stealing from jai's car for anything else but the twin turbo kit.

Definetly let us know more details if you hear back.

[Lmx]

^ how would a coon know the exhaust is useless though?

Well my "case" hasnt even been assigned to an officer yet... stolen cars arent the top of the priority list. Hoping to be in my new SS by the end of the week if insurance can proceed this week!

[Drift_R32]

im not sure if theres twins out there but spotted one that looked pretty much identical last nite. black rims, white duco with lip spoiler hammering past me.

The amount of cars that are on gate, blown or exotic I hear flog it around here and I dont see them. Heard gate and seen that drive past in close succession, assumed they were the same vehicle.

the mechanics over the road at mercedes pulling out in someones brand new C63 and standing on it is gold though.

[lazy6]

[Brockas]

Keypad immobiliser.


It's not nice to hear, but no sympathy for anyone who gets their car stolen these days (unless it's loaded on a tow-truck).

I've suggested group buys, cheap install rates, everything. It will cost you $100 or so at most, and ensures nobody can break into your house, steal your keys, and steal your car...


I'm not sure why anyone wouldn't have one.

I had kill switch installed in my ute cost me $80 so even if they some how get hold of my keys they can't take the ute unless they find the switch. Told my insurance when I had it installed and it reduced my premium by about $150 so got my money back for it :)

[AGIT8D]

If I had a kill switch the last place I'd be discussing it is on an online forum.

For $100, im keen as.

Oh well never said where it was just that it has one. Whether you've got a kill switch or not if they want it bad enough they'll find a way to take it. It's just there to make it harder for them to take it :)

I got mine installed at North Coast auto electrics in Wangara

[AGIT8D]

Yeah I know.. But thinking logically I'll say it's somewhere in the interior, somewhere easy to locate, and somewhere hidden...

Under dash
Glove box
Centre console

That would be the first places I'd look.

[stumps.]

i reckon it would be a neutral/park lockout switch somewhere near the shifter if it is an auto.

[Fukushima]

like he said it's not going to stop someone with a flatbed, or enough time

but the opportunistic thief moves quickly, slow them down and they are more likely to take off empty handed or with the easiest thing to grab like gps or radar detector.

it is a lesson I learned when a crack head broke into my first car, they tried to hot wire it but the carby was a bit stuffed at the time and you had to use the manual choke to start it so they just took off with my head unit

cop came by and offered 3 useful tips:

- kill switch
- flashing light ($5 led from jaycar makes them think twice)
- if you leave the car and you are going on holiday or something then disconnect the coil from the dizzy

obviously now we've moved on and every car has an immobilisor with a flashing light and they take a lot longer to hotwire. so they take your keys.

I say bring back the kill switch. And if you have a slide in head unit try and put a back strap on it, if you have audio gear consider how well you have it secured, if you slow them down you are more likely to keep it.

[MISS 13B]

Best vehicle theft deterrent of you're going on holiday - remove the ECU if possible.

But yeah, if someone is that determined to steal it, they will unfortunately find a way.

[billk]

I had a $2 switch wired up to my fuel pump that sat behind the dash, next to the head unit. I think that that would be more effective then the alarm that I had put in, in a case of theft

[Drift_R32]

didnt your ute get stolen while you were metres away?

yerp..
learnt my lesson didnt i ? and my car cost about 1/4 the price

[TJ]

Oh so its ok to chastice those that havnt been through it because you have

The people you want to contact are:

Volatile Customs
4SLIDE


Both will do keypad immobilisers at a good price for antilag members.


Did understate the price by accident, mine cost $135 installed. Simple 4 button code immobiliser. Piece of piss to use and with a 6 digit code ensures it can't be disabled by anyone except you.

[TJ]

People will just guess yours in 6969

It's the type of code an idiot has on his luggage.

i know everybody says they see stolen cars all the time. Leach Hwy on Shelley Bridge this arvo heading towards freo, white VE GTS, black GTS rims, private plates and also had a black roof, couldnt do a u-turn and check out as was in mates dads rangie

[Fukushima]

not chastising anyone... just keep seeing stolen threads on various forums where the keys had been taken and thought it was time to speak up.

keypad is a good idea though

dont worry hes having a cry at me

im not saying i didnt make a mistake..they should have been in my pocket
if you ever been on a house site youll realise 98% of the tradies out there leave their keys in easy acess if not in the fucking barrel with their wallet on the dash.
the guy who stole them stalked my car for two days before stealing it also. that was the only time ive ever put them anywhere besides in my pocket and it wasnt an easy spot, it was 7 foot high at the top of a stair way. which he then waited at the window until i was in the next room and ran in and grabbed them, started the car before he got in and then off he went.

im just saying..if u got a nice car, and you go out..maybe leave the keys somewhere safe or hidden, less chance of your car aka pride and joy becoming an easy get away and then a burnt out shell.

Or just buy a keypad immobiliser and leave your keys wherever you want?

[Nic_A31]

Don't even need one of those switches, there's a few tutorials on the internet to use existing accessories as killswitches, (eg. face of CD player, cig lighter)

[Mad_Aussie]

Or just buy a keypad immobiliser and leave your keys wherever you want?

Pppft sif you even need that. Just get an extension cord, chop one end off it, lay the positive line exposed on the car, and plug the other end in. Fixed.

If you crash or something and forget about it then what? I don't know what would happen but I thought of doing it that way as well and decided to pull an ignition plug out instead..
