BigWorm;
Yep, it's true.... I've been avoiding posting it here as I was in denial & hoping it would turn up & I'd have the whole 'stolen & recovered' story, but it's not looking so good, although it is still early days.....

Tuesday 24th of Feb, 3.45am, at a mates house in Highbury (20min N/E of Adelaide) my Celica was stolen.

It has Black on Yellow NSW no plates, AW-00-FY and looks like this:

EDIT: REWARD OF $1000 FOR INFORMATION LEADING TO THE RETURN OF THIS CAR, CALL ME, JOEL ON 0403 441 141.
ANY CALLS WILL BE KEPT STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL.

It now has silver 5 spoke wheels, 16" front & 17" rear.

If you see it, hear about it, are offered any orange Celica or 4AG/TE parts for sale, please call myself, JOEL, on 0403 441 141 and/or the POLICE on 131 444.

I've owned this car for almost 10 years now (as alot of you will know as it's constant evolution was thanks to & recorded on this forum) and have changed/modified/upgraded/cleaned/polished/replaced over that period almost every part on the car, most of them more than once.
The parts on this car are pretty distinctive & should be easily recognised, if it wasn't polished it was painted, & most of it was custom suited to the car/engine/drivetrain/suspension/brake combination.

The easy bits to get rid of would be the Autronic SMC, Autronic CDI, Blitz SBC iD-III, Garrett GT2560RS (to suit GTR) turbo, ARE 400x300x75 intercooler, R33 Skline calipers (bright yellow with Nissan filed off), and maybe the wheels, the rear were 17x9" silver 5 spoke volks, ordinary condition, fronts were 16x8" silver 5 spoke prosudios or something like that, good condition.
Everything else is Celica/Toyota specific.

cheers

I'd cap em.

fkn low scum out there.

Man even out shitbox AE80 got broken into for the clock and the cd player face. one of the cunts cut themselves when trying to rip the console surround off. They ripped the plastic off from under the steering wheel and shit too. fucked out locks.

The car isnt worth anything... why do it? I was so frustrated, keen for some knee capping.
