Someone stole the maxima today. Aug 31. Inbetween 12:00-5:00 pm.

I know there are a few 3 gen locals on this board. Let me know if you see it around. Or the parts. Not many running the Z track editions or especially the polished Z calipers. Not too sure who would want the maxima perse. But a Nissan freak might want the wheels and calipers for a 5 lug. ie.. 240sx kid.

 

 

Jeffy this is sad. Sorry to hear this happened brother. Hope you find the car and hopefully they catch the people who did this.

-Diego

 

sorry to hear it

 

Damn that really really really sucks...
Feel sorry for you man...

 

are you kidding me?? so sorry dude and i'll keep a look out

 

how did they break in? did you find glass or was is clean?

I'll be ona lookout for parts! always look on Craigslist/ebay!

edit: i think Shawn and I were two of the few elite to get a ride

 

*tear*.... I doubt I will ever see it here, but if I do they shall perish....

 

Found it sans wheels of course. Police called. But the car was gone to the towing yard before I could take a look. Golf clubs and junk are probably gone. Hope they didn't fubar the ign too much so I can throw some wheels on it to get him home.

What to hear the funny thing? Damn this was at this ghetto extented stay hotel NEXT door to my work! Fawkers!

Update tomorrow I guess

 

hey do you need to borrow the Cobra's?



edit: hope the tow truck didn't ruin the rotors/etc towing it
again let me know if I can help

 

Exactly man. Police dude was talking to me. "we found the car, do you want to pick it up?" Well is it drivable? "I don't know, I haven't seen it". *thinking, you're an idiot* Well can you take a look? "Okay I'm pulling up now" "Nope it's on blocks" Can you see if the ign is all busted? "Um okay arrange it with the towing company". *still thinking he's an idiot* Um okay will do (while struggling from yelling at the guy)

I can just see the towing company scraping the jackity jack out of the rotors/bottom of the car while getting it on the flatbed.

I'll probably have to use the G wheels for a short time. Glad I didn't ship them yet. Then try to find some more wheels. I hope my buddy still has those 350z touring 18s.

 

need my number? I'm not doing anything tomorrow if you want some help with it.

If they took the brakes/etc you can borrow mine or whatever
do you have a spare set of wheels that can clear the BBK?

 

good man... *sigh*

lets find them wheels on craigslist or ebay!

 

Thanks. I got your number Shawn. I'll have to see. I still have the G wheels.

 

glad to hear you got your ride back. was ready to bust some nuts.

 

wow Jeff, sorry to hear about your wheels. I hope the rest of the car turns out to be ok. God I hope they find those f*ckers!

 

DANGNabbit....

 

wow thats messed up.

 

Sorry to hear that Jeff! At least they recovered the car, so all of your hard work isn't destroyed.

Did they steal it from your work or at your house? I can't believe it was taken in the middle of the day. Brave little *****.

fawkers

now I am scurred to drive my car to any big cities. I just leave it in the garage and hope this doesn't happen to me.

 

You NW crew guys need to contact Ben, get some guns and become vigilantes.

Thankfully, with so much wealth here in Boston, my car is hardly a target but I feel for ya, it sucks having your hard work ripped away by the scum of the earth.

 

I have guns, but it doesn't help when they jack your car and are long gone. Like Jeff said, it was probably some dumb azz 240 kid looking for a set of nice "drifting wheels."

 

Fukking thiefs...Need to hang em from the highest tree.....

Glad you got it back though....

 

I have guns too, one on each arm




I just hope it was just the wheels and everything else is fine. Although I think he'll be shopping for new golf clubs though. Would be pretty pathetic if they took the car seat

 

Jeff...If you need the ignition lockset and other steering column parts...Let me know...Same deal as the hood latch thingy...

 

Glad to hear u got ur car back.....This has got me all worried cuz I gotta take my car into Philly this Saturday for an overnight leaving it in a school parking lot.

 

:d

thats just wrong.

 

Saw it. Just took the wheels and left a cherry pop spray all over the interior. Looks like just the wheels are missing. Left everything else. Gonna have it towed to the bodyshop anyway as there's a dent or two. Might get some other work done also.

 

did you have full coverage on it?

Might be worth a thorough looking over to see the other stuff they damaged

 

Where was this? Was it in the People's Republic of Portland, OR?

 

Sorry to hear that! Glad you got it back, could have been a lot worse.

Just curious, did you have wheel locks? Security system?

 

wow that scared me but im glad you got it back

if you never saw it again what would you have replaced it with

 

Something with a VQ35

 

including the thing hanging in the garage? :x:

I wonder if they were able to drive it or had to push it. How's the lock? Broken window?

 

sorry to hear that jeff. at least you got it back before it got worse. did u have locks on the wheels?

 

Jeff, i know these guys probably aren't the brightest crayons in the box, but i would suggest changing the frequency on your garage door, i am assuming you have a garage door opener, because you dont know if they may want seconds and coppied the frequency from your opener. it may sound mcgyverish but its a possiblity.


-you gonna edit this post too?

 

Depending on what I would have gotten fron insurance. I got quite a bit when someone totalled my old max with less work. Anything from a 2005 G35 sedan, Audi A6 4.2/2.7TT to a I35/3.5VQ maxima/altima to just an old I30. Definately a sedan of some sort. I lug my kid around.

 

They probably owned a VG/VE or still do, and just walked up to Jeff's car with their key and it worked. Seems alot of the keys for our cars are the same.

 

Highly unlikely. There's not exactly a lot of 3rd gens on the road anymore. Most have been wrecked or retired.

 

you obviously haven't been to the greater Seattle area. we have more 3rd gens than I can count.

 

What is your definition of not a lot? Besides mine, I see at least two different ones a day.
