Stolen Today: R34 GTR from Apartment parking lot – Join the search
November 14, 2008
A Zerotohundred.com member for years, Russwestwood’s R34 Skyline GTR was stolen just hours ago. Right from the comfort of the GTR’s parking lot at the basement of Russ’s apartment in Damansara Perdana. Russ is currently out of the country on business in Egypt.
At about 3:45pm today Russ’s spouse, Nicole received an SMS Alert from the car alarm company notifying of a rapid arm and disarming of the GTR’s security system.
Curious, Nicole rushed home and was shocked to find the GTR missing from its usual spot. Unfortunately the security guards weren’t aware of what happened. Coincidentally the CCTV system weren’t working at the time. Though other relevant people within the area are currently being interviewed for leads.
Do join the search along with the rest of the Malaysian Skyline Club and forum members.
You can help simply by: notifying the police or 012-6900120 or us or even trying to be a hero, if you do come across any hints, or better, a visual sighting of a:
- Skyline R34 GTR
- Colour: Bayside Blue
- Number plate: JHM 35
Places to also look:
- Industrial Areas, Warehouses
- Backlanes of shops and houses
- Doesn’t matter if you’re in Penang or Johor. Thieves travel. Fast.
- Chop Shops / Junkyards
- Suspicious Areas?
I can assure you, the owner will reward whoever that finds him his precious R34 GTR or even provides useable information.

A Reward Statement from the owner, Russwestwood himself:
First of all I would like to thank Tom for placing this notice up so quickly, and to Remus as well.
Now, I want to make this clear that there is a RM52,000 (USD15,000) cash reward for anyone who can help me get my car back.
If you have any contacts or know of anyone or friends in the shipping line, customs, port authorities whom can locate and stop the shipping process, inform the police, help stop my car from being shipped out, the cash reward will be yours.
If you know anyone at the border checkpoints to Thailand also, there might be a chance of it moving across the border.
Personally I feel that the car will be shipped out, as the car was stolen whole with no damage left from the crime scene. And if it is shipped, it should be by container. Anyone with information on shipping especially with the regards to container shipping, please help.
The chassis number is: BNR34-004751
The engine number is: RB260725904Once again, it is a blue Nissan Skyline GTR.
Should the car be found almost bare and stripped down, there is still a reward of RM30,000. So please, help me find my car.
again i get flamed when i tried to clear the air as someone here told me i got my “sang kancil” stolen..just wanna clear the air bros. btw i cant afford new cars except those recons, i am just like you guys working-class ppl earning a living. as for the r34 owner, yeah i do feel bad for him as i know how it felt to get yur stuff stolen.its unimaginable therefore my tots was get a the new gt-r for god sake. anyway all the best in relocating yur car i hope some of these broaded minded ppl can help you. Good Luck!
kongket: like i said yea, it’s a R34 BUT the car means a whole lot more.. it’s an inline 6.. it’s a RB engine.. the new GTR’s V6 obviously CAN’T replace the uniqueness of a RB.. maybe u’ve never modded a car before thus u do not know the feeling of ’satisfaction’ after waiting for a year to finally get the results that we wanted
hey.. just don’t bother people like this guy.. the more you talk to him, the more annoying he will get..
stupid guy.. why do you bother posting here anyway?.. lack of attention..
Hey kongket,
thanks for the comments.
Misinterpretation of comments is frequent on forums.
I will not hold a grudge against anything that is said here and take it was all meant in good faith.
Thank you all once again.
ther will be some good ass raping after this….sorry for ur loss russell…
bro better check which tuner shop or alarm shop where u did your car before.. usually these mechanics knows wat ur cars inside and they studied it…. i had same experience my car was stolen before and it was stolen by this mechanics after we found out… sometimes u cant trust mechanics that much unless u noe them really well…
Will join the search party for the masterpiece.
Regards.
perhaps you could try the lane along sg. besi especially behind the closed esso station until taman sg. besi. i don’t know how, but sometimes the people could give you some info. those worked at the workshop (the bmw – stephen), perhaps the chap who drive skyline living at the squatters near tmn. sg. besi.
any latest news abt the car?
did u manage to recover it?
There is a R34 GTR Vspec Bayside Blue on sale in Indonesia island Jawa border…Update from Fren….
I think somebody stole ur car only bcoz he only want ur engine…maybe for build a car project…its something like use ur engine for drag race…drifting…or illegal street race…ermmm maybe the person that stole ur car try to sell ur engine to halfcut shop….or maybe ur car now at Singapore…Thailand or Indonesia….
russwestwood & nicole.
sorry to hear about your lost. 3months ago i lost my EK, its not a expensive car or anything, but i bought it with my first pay check and took years saving money to mod and fix it. so i can imagine the sentimental value your GTR has. i surely still miss my ride. the times and memories it left me, time cannot forget.
nicole: i understand where you are coming from, my GF loves the car as much as i do. so i am truly sorry for both your lost, i can understand that the car is like family.
i made police reports and tried looking around for it as well. but sadly nothing turned up. i hope luck shines a brighter light on you, you have my prayers.
take care.
i believe the guards at the condo might have something to do with it.
this is becos i got a fren staying there and her car was broken into with the windows broken. At tat same time coincidentally, it seems no guards heard anything or seen any suspicious people and the CCTV system is down.
My fren went to the management and they say they cannot do anything.
What is the use of staying at such a luxurious apartment, and u pay so much maintenance fees, when the management cant even get the cctv system to work and to provide some safe security or decent guards.
We told the management that it could be an inside job but they said is not their business…..
Hope u can find out more from the guards.
sad to hear that your car has been stolen by someone else,it is very hard for you to get back your GTR right now since it was stolen and you have been looking for such a very long time,please dont be mad and hurt by my statement,im telling you the truth right now,sometimes the truth is painfull like hell but you have no choice just to face it.the percentage for you to get back your gtr with all the same accesories and mod is only at around 1% out of 99%.the 1% is miracle,bro you must know one thing about this bolehland country with the economy right now currently,plus many crime and criminal cases are happening in this country,it is better not to drive an expensive car or leave it alone there for a long time becouse it is not safe at all,anytime,anywhere.i remember there was one ferrari f430 from singapore was on the way driving to genting highland,his car was robbed during half way up the hill.you must know this country situation and the peoples mindset right now.i wish you can get your car back as soon as possible.may god bless you.
Has the car been found or not?
Can someone please give a confirmed update?
i wasnt surprised to learn that your car was stolen. you publicise it like nobodys biz. the fotos are everywhere, with the number plate exposed. where u stay is also openly shared in the internet. the modifications, parts and upgrades are updated in the internet consistently. dude, u attract too much attention, you shud have seen it coming. gated condo? comon man there is no such thing as a ‘gated’ communitiy in malaysia. all u need to do is to pay those guards some money and u can get away with anything. your car has already been chopped into pieces with the parts being sold to both legal/illegal racers. give it up, u will never find your car in one piece again. if i were u i would take more precaution of the Z. sorry to be blunt here.
it’s still not found yet? FU.CK the thief for stealing this beast..
i’ve read russ n nicole blog quite for a long time, and i absolutely a cars lover, i can feel the owner’s sadness too.. this is really a nice monster, a very nice bnr34
