At around 430-5PM our beloved Thao had her car stolen from a shopping center in Torrance. License plates are "180sxxy". Description::: White hatch, C-west(real) kit. Kei Office Modex wheels (16x7, 16x8). Tanabe SO-C coilovers, Nismo power brace. Keep an eye out for the car or if a kit pops up online or other parts show up.http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=191691&imageID=95689726&Mytoken=20050508214053

One of the easiest things to sell are rims.

The rims that were on Thao's car at the time it was stolen were Keiichi Tsuchiya KS-05 wheels. They're white, 16x7 and 16x8. 4x114.3 lug nut pattern, however, I'm not sure what the offset was. I believe they're in the high-20s.

I also would like to mention that those rims do not belong to Thao. They were loaned to her for Texas DriftShowoff last April by my friend Yuri. So the person(s) that stole Thao's car also stole from Yuri as well.

If these wheels show up anywhere, eBay or other forums. Please call or email Thao immediately @ 310-508-0788 E-MAIL: [email protected] You can also email me at [email protected] and I'll make sure Yuri gets the message.

It can safely be said that these wheels are probably the only white, 4-lug, 16x7 and 16x8 set in the US.

Here are some pictures for illustration.

News!


It may have been spotted in the San Fernando Valley:

i heard from a post your car was stolen and I had seen it recently
going south on De Soto Ave, past Vanowen. I'm not sure if it was your
car, however, I'm guessing the green woman decal is unique, and that
was definately on a white 180sx, with DriftDay stickers on the rear
side window. I saw a brown hispanic man driving it, and after i could
take a better look it past me.

i remember the time it was sunset, however i don't remember the day,
sorry i can't remember. I know it was either from Sunday to Tuesday
for sure, and i believe it got stolen by then so I hope this helps..

It pisses me off how some people decide to make money by stealing someone elses property. :rl: Well, the San Fernando Valley is above Los Angeles, so i'll keep an eye out

At that time did you see any changes on the exterior i.e. wheels, kit, or something???

I didn't spot it, its just an e-mail Thao received and forwarded to me to stick into all the posts.

i wonder if the guy knows what he is driving... if its just another import car to him...

g/l thao! the internet works in many ways.. its actually a good idea to have people on the net familur with your car so if anything happens, people can look out for it.. unlike the idea that posting on the internet is bad..

I'll be sure to buy what ever was jacked and put it im my 240--- JUST KIDDING. :bowrofl: This is the same thing that was going on one some of the hatchi owners from Club 4AG there rollas were being broken into or stolen with out a trace. I strongly believe that here in Socal there will sure as heck be more cases of theft especially those as more and more people add JDm flash to there cars. Thats why you guys should invest into a really good alarm system or something like that.

This is to those SOB's that stole that Girls car F*** You

Something I posted previously, but still applies...
Sorry to hear about your car bro. If by chance the police should happen to recover it, kindly ask the officer that notifies you that your car's been recovered if you can get your car checked for fingerprints. Also call the detective that's assigned your case & ask him the same thing...if you can get your car checked for fingerprints. It has been my experience that if you car wasn't stolen just for joyriding, then it was stolen specifically for stuff on or in your car, body kit / rims & tires / stereo etc. Check all the pawn shops in the area along with the newspapers, Recycler/Autotrader etc for that area. Most criminals are stupid...they will either keep the stuff for themselves & use it on their car, sell it to a pawnshop or advertise it somewhere for quick cash.
If the cops ARE able to recover fingerprints off your car, then there is a good chance that they might be able to find the dirtbag that stole your car in the first place. Just make sure you followup with the detective every so often & ask him about the results of the fingerprint search.
Hope this helps...

Today I got a call @ 2pm from the LAPD. The car was found in a really shady area in Watts and then impounded.

graphics ripped off.

http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y226/ticklemethao/DSC01690.jpg
they stole my Apex'i N1 dual exhaust, but they were nice enough to replace it with THIS nifty one!!

http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y226/ticklemethao/DSC01692.jpg
took my 180sx rear panel, and my stock lights.

http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y226/ticklemethao/DSC01694.jpg
replaced (?) my white fender with a black one (in good shape)

http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y226/ticklemethao/DSC01695.jpg
I figured they felt sorry for me because I had a slight crack in my C-west bumper, so they replaced it with an almost new stock bumper and removed the rest of my body kit as well.

http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y226/ticklemethao/DSC01697.jpg
Took my Tanabe coilovers, but replaced them with shocks and springs... held on by lug nuts... poor car wobbled all over the place.

So the @$$holes basically took anything that looked pretty. The Tanabe coilovers, C-west body kit, Apex'i exhaust, Battle Version tension rods, Kei Office wheels... and my box of fluids along with other personal items. Total aesthetic damage maybe about 5-6k =( The car doesn't run well either. They didn't bother with the JWT ECU, SOHC motor, Kaaz 2-way lsd, Tanabe sway bars, or RPS clutch. These were true ricers. Ugh.

Thank you everyone for your help! I appreciate it a lot. I'm lucky by car got stolen by idiots. I'm relieved...

wow, well I am glad you got your car back Thao , but it sucks they took half your stuff, but your lucky they left stuff. I guess it was a case of whatever was the easiest stuff to grab. People this is why Low Jack is worth the $500 !!
she,probably could have got her car back, with more parts intact and possibly caught the punks.

05-18-2005, 02:24 PM
I am also very sorry to hear that they ruined the car, It's good you got something back but I just don't think its fair that someone just tore your hardwork apart so they could have stuff they know nothing about im sure. They were probably sad it didn't have an SR....Sorry again to hear about the car.

Im sorry Thao that really sucks what those Mother F***ers did to you're car its a shame that there are some really jealous SOB's that can't appreciate hard work and dedication so all they do is steal and violate people's privite property. I hope those jerks who did that will burn in hell for doing what they did because that was just dirty. Well don't give up just keep on drifting. :-/

Hey Thao, this is Lisa btw kevin's punk ass never signs out!.....I just wanted to tell you that I am glad you got the car back, I am sorry it is in such crappy condition. I reallly hope ppl can help you out in any ways that they can, hell, thats what friends are for. I wish you the best of luck with re-building the car. Let me know (or kevin since I will be gone for 3 months here in a few days) if there is anything we can do to help. We sure as hell will try to. *hugs* Keep smiling, you got your baby back!

I find it very odd that they actually took the time to replace parts. Maybe they felt REALLY guilty.... either way, they should burn in hell.
