As per this thread, http://clubsub.org.nz/forum/showthread.php?46773-Stolen-Silver-96-BG5-Legacy-GT-Rego-BRG199-CHCH

Found it today dumped a few blocks away. Someone has taken it for a joy ride, gone through the glove box, nothing of value to take, stereo is still in there. Was not insured. Pics here:

The front RH wheel is completely mangled, I think the strut is bent and the front drive shaft at the very minimum is totaled. I started the engine and it did not sound too happy, was burbling as it revved. I am aghast to think what they did to it after putting thousands of dollars into that engine.

Contacted police, not interested in forensics, just in closing the outstanding report. Unsure what to do with it, I have no idea how to evaluate if it's worth anything. The engine was a replacement from a 100K vehicle, with a brand new radiator, but might be completely fubar for all I can tell. Turbos should still be good.

Any advice would be deeply appreciated.

Would anyone like to do better than $250 from a wrecker? Still got some lovely VF18/19 turbos, brand new radiator, new (thrashed) engine etc...

Alternately, does anybody think that the front wheel assembly damage is repairable?

      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
