It'll be kinda hard to list everything though. The excel spreadsheet is about 14 pages long. (10 pages on tools alone)
Steve, maybe you can ultimately post up an inventory of things club members can be out on the look for. I know my Haltech E11 V2 was stolen along with my Tial blow off valve. How about listing the particulars on the turbos and other inventory stuff so you'll have several hundred people on the look out for you? These items have to surface sometime.

Hate to hear that guys, that is a **** ton of parts that they shouldnt be able to do much with because the community is so small, I guess to everyone reading this if you see any new member on the forums or on ebay listing a lot of high end parts let steve know. That is a lot of parts to try and unload in such a small community.

I just talked to Steve yeasterday. I cant believe that this has happened. I wish the best of luck to them and I hope they stay open. I was just getting ready to setup a time to take my car down so they can finish it.
I hope they catch the people that did this and they are shot.

Sucks to hear about that =(
I can only repeat what others have already said. I hope your insurance pulls through, and also hope that you can catch the guys that planned this out and executed the job..
If you want I can spread the word to guys over here in the UK and Europe as well...

Sucks to hear about this. With that laundry list of parts, they HAD to have camped out for a while.....
I'd like to see them die, but I would be satisfied with just horribly crippled or disfigured.
Seriously though, I hate hearing about people getting ripped off. This is what insurance is for, but nothing can really be done about that shitty feeling you get when it happens to you.
Good luck getting things back together.

Really sorry to hear this.
Seems like this was well planned, and they knew what they were going for. Hopefully those on the forum can monitor the usual sales channels.

Thanks alot guys. We do have security cameras. The unit was mounted in our office. They stole that too....
We think we know who did it (just lack of prove). We have over 25 motion sensors inside the shop. There was no way anyone that doesn't know the shop in and out could have done this without triggering the alarm. Whoever that did it obviously know the loophole in our security system and was able to bypass it and disarmed it. Both Alex and I obviously didn't know there was a flaw in our security sytem or else we would have gotten it taken care of long time ago. We already submited all the information and suspect to both the police department and insurance. Hopefully something will happen soon.

Yes, its true. It happened on the 19th. We think that it was someone that knows the shop well that did it. I think it was planned for a long time. The security system was disabled, the door of entry (wsa temper with). phone lines were all cut (we just now got it running again). Suvlenace camera system was taken away too.
So far, we estimated that they stole approx $150k worth of stuff. Tools alone was around $60k (all Snap-on and some Matco). We have a full bridge engine with NRS ceramic seals, coated rotors, balanced, studded... etc... that was purposely built for a drag car for a customer that was stolen. 2 tranny, approx 7 PFC was stolen (including PFC that was in customers car). Tial BOV, Turbo kits, turbos, Twin power amp, AEM amp, 2 Exedy triple disk clutch, kaaz diff, TT, two 13B stud kit, Custom racing axles for FD(cost $3000). Supra turbo kits, Supra Hydra ECU.
too many things to list. We are just waiting on our insurance to see what will happen.

**** man, im sorry steve. It had to be an inside job. There is no way that someone could just know how to disable all that **** break into it perfectly and know where everything was and how to steal it. Was the security camera disabled for that night? how was it turned off?
Guess i would be looking out on ebay to see if stuff pops up. You know they are going to want to dump that stuff quickly. Hopefully uoi can recover it and nail his ***.

Man, that sucks. Sorry to hear it. At least you think you have a good handle on the situation, that always helps.
