STOLEN 10-11/8/13: Highly modified 96 WRX Hamilton

[Tony]

I have just heard from one of our customers that his car was stolen either late last night or early this morning from outside his house (Boorman Road) in Hamilton.

It is a 96 WRX, black, with a very ummm, you could say "interesting" widebody kit (see pics below). Number plate: BJN185.

Looks aside, this car has a very big dollar, highly modified engine set-up (420kw atw) which we recently finished, and a lot of other decent bits on it. I would expect that it would possibly be stripped for parts as the body itself would be quite noticible.

It was on the silver and black 18 inch wheels when stolen (wheels in second pic).

Some items of interest that may pop up for sale so keep an eye out:

2.5 litre motor w/ AVCS heads (all the good sh*t in this motor).

Exedy twin plate clutch kit.

6 Speed gearbox (non DCCD) and R180 rear end.

Race Fab Polished inlet manifold.

1400cc top feed injectors.

Garrett GT3582 ceramic BB turbo, 0.82 turbine housing (housing has some distinct markings which would make it easily identifiable), anti-surge compressor.

SSI headers plus custom made SS up-pipe to suit Garrett turbo, with 44mm Tial V-band wastegate.

Yellow D2 8 Pot front brakes, and yellow painted Brembo 2 pot rears.

Red Bride race seats.

If anyone in the Hamilton area has seen/knows anything in relation to this, drop me a message and I can put you in touch with the owner.

Cheers.

you gotta wonder if it was targeted and they knew what was in it or if some scumbag walking past got a 420 kw surprise

[Johnnynz]

All those goodys, probably stolen to order. Engine will turn up in pieces about the place.

Scummy bastards.

[Minaj]

It\'s probably going to be parted out, did you have any type of gps tracking device ?

[optmspotts]

Damn, this is a painful read

Unique car totally ruined for some scumbag to fill his pockets with only a percentage of what that car is really worth.....

[yellowsub]

agreed some low life after all the effort thats gone into his pride and joy some wanker likes it more then the owner man i hope it turns up man

[jimme18]

bro what the fuck! I am totally gutted for you.

That is an amazing looking car!

I never saw it run, how fast was it?

[johnny5]

stink bastards all that work gone to waste

[Ledge`]

Any car theft is upsetting/gut wrenching to read about. Really feel for the owner in every case.

Hoping for the best outcome as always.

Man that sux dude! Hope it turns up in one piece....

[Tony]

Yeah its a real shame for him He was into drag racing and I dont even think he got the chance to take it to the strip and see what it could do after all these mods.

Not liking the chances of it showing up in one piece sadly :\'(

[QRAF]

gutted agree with the comments above being stolen to order, just guts you.

[Tony]

Yeah, there has been no further word on the complete car being found, so I\'d say its most certainly in bits now. Although the owner tells me he does have a few leads (his neighbours have security cameras and could see the car being taken in the footage...)

[QRAF]

put any footage up on facebook at let the people find these scum

[Tony]

I\'ll leave that up to the owner (will let him know). I was just trying to spread the word here in case anyone had seen anything.

[gf8wagon]

Gutted!! im from auckland so il keep a eye out for it

Those parts will be easy to notice if they try and sell them,hopefully they slip up

[Disruptz]

Almost thought I had found it, but a similar black wrx with a widebody is also floating around Hamilton East.
