Stolen: 1967 mk2 cortina chch


Recommended Posts

Hey guys

My brothers car has been stolen from Ferrymead Christchurch. Pretty sad as he's owned it about 5+ years and it's pretty much part of the family. We are both nutters for cortinas and have owned a few of the ones around. If anyone sees it please get in touch with me or my brother or the police. Thanks

Copied from facebook

Truly sad story. James Stokes cortina has been stolen on last night (21/06/14). If you see it please contact him(0276922511) or the police urgently(or me if need). It has hotwire mags with yokohama tyres is a teal blue colour. Has worn interior and a small patch of rust in the front guard. Rego DH4599. This car has been through a lot and it's truly sad that someone would steal such a unique and special car. Please share this around as much as you can.

Hey fellas

The car has been recovered on Friday night. Some little punk in Ashburton stole it. He's saying he brought it off facebook but it's utter bull****. Why would you take a legimate car you brought on facebook and destroy a perfectly mint paint job and bog up chassis numbers... Hopefully he gets charged with the full force of the law and James can take him to small claims to get the required $$ for the paint work(assuming he doesn't do the right thing and fix this damage done to the car that is). We found all the paint/sand paper/bog in the garage as well so it's fairly obvious he knew it was stolen and went out of his way to hide it.

So the story goes something along these lines

Car taken boyraced skidded up in chch 2 weeks ago

seen heading back towards ashburton later that weekend

Sits in someones property until it's shifted to said dip****s parents house

mum checks rego comes back as a UTE so she searches car and finds rego paper calls police to report vehicle ( yay good lady!)

We turn up a few hours later to find it matte black with a rattle can job

Car has been sanded very badly as well so the paint underneath is ****ed so can't even use thinners to remove it

Probably one of the worst things is that the dip****s couldn't figure out how to remove all the chrome trims so they just ripped them off and completely wrecked them in doing so(bent and twisted no hope of reusing at all)

Here's what it looked like when we picked it up :(

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
