Default Car was found last night!!!

You guys are not gonna believe this.
They found the car 3 blocks from where it was stolen. Camshafts+valvetran(jun3's), header(Toda), ITR shift ****, alpine cd changer, about 75-100cds, and all the stuff in my car was taken (i.e. digital camera, north face jacket, mp3 player, school bag etc..)

But the good news is they only took my passanger side Sparco, 00" GSR rims are still on the car, Comptech ice box+comptech filter, my new Alpine deck are all still there!! What kind of idiots stole my car???

In a way this really sucks cause now my insuurance only covers $1000 of aftermarket stuff on my car. And since I have a $500 dedutable its not even really worth it for me to claim.

I would really like to thank all of you for your condolences and support, it really means a lot to me to have such a great community here on Honda-Tech. I will be trying to slowly build my car back up. Unfortunatly I only have about $300 in my savings right now but my car will someday be track ready I swear!!!

Im about to give you some great advice!! Pocket the cash they give you recieve to replace the OEM valvetrain it should equal up to the aftermarket parts you had in the car already!! Do not mention anything about the car having a aftermarket valvetrain!!
Thats what i did when my car had been stolen and i made out like a bandit!!

i won't consider you lucky, but at least they were selective in what they were after. glad you got your car back in mostly one piece, and that you're willing to continue the 'project' despite the huge setback

Glad to hear you got your car back.

I hate to say this but I would assume that someone you know most likely stole your car.

You know. How do they know to take the cams?
It's not like there is a notice on the motor saying there is toda cams inside?

Don't you all think this is kinda wierd.

Again you never had toda cams and parts. They took your stock cams and parts. Insurance will pay for stock cams and parts.

Good luck.

Did you get all your stuff done at the same shop? Or... have you told anyone recently what your setup is? We'll look out for you if anyone starts modding their cars will Jun or Toda goodies...

Glad that you have your car back!! Was there an alarm on the car before?

yea sounds like an inside job to me. Its only fair that insurance pay for the price of stock stuff, what you do with the money is non of their business.

Definatly sounds fishy for them to steal camshafts and a valve train. Keep your eyes peeled and your ear to the ground my friend. Glad you got most of your car back mostly intact and have a .
