The boss and I were talking about the stabbing lastnight at work today. We both agree that these people come here from war ravaged countries and they think that it's the normal thing to do, because it is in their country.

There isn't much set up here to help them out. But in saying that, I think the troublemakers should have a 3 strike rule. 3 strikes, your out.

Like most have said already, the Sudanese people that come here, most of them are hardworking people that wouldn't do anything wrong. Then theres the minority (like most social groups) that ruin it for everyone.

Also, Adelaide has been up the shit for years. It seems each ethnic group has had their time as the "bad guys" around here. It was the middle eastern people a few years ago, running around in M.E.B shirts in town and stuff. Everyone hated them, but no-one focused on the other ethnic gangs around until now.

It's just annoying hearing about more and more stabbings and shootings in town.. yet you don't see much done about it.

We just had a big counselling session for all interested staff and students regarding the stabbings yesterday. I couldn't attend, but heard it was very emotional, and have ripped right through the sudanese community. We have a couple of the family of the victim and the accused studying here with us, it must have been hard to sit in the same room as a person whos family just killed your family.

grrr

Fk yeah, thats about the only R35 I've seen that actually looks good.

Weird though, Craig's post says posted at 4:40pm, muirsky's post says posted at 4:42pm yet it's above craig's one :laugh:

Anyway, my car started misfiring under high load the other day (ie ~5500 whilst wheelspinning in 2nd) so I took one of the spark plugs out (CBF doing the rest :D) and it looks like this:

Is the whiteness something to be worried about?

It also idles kinda rough, which it has done for a while, but hadn't misfired until the other night.

Betcha $50 I would have kept up :laugh:

in all seriousness too - I'm not a betting man, but One Id take 'cause I know Id get a free fiddy (no speed limiter, good suspn.)

Errr Brendan - you do realise it is a GTR with around 450rwkw and has run low 10's? You would have kept within sight range for around 30 seconds, and would have been it :(

I can't believe it either.........I doubt if the block alone is worth $30K........maybe with very expensive internals ie. a short motor

You had better believe it mate .... BLOCK only. Definitely nothing else included. The crank that Munro is using was a cool $5k on top, then pistons and all the crazy gear incl. 1,600cc injectors - yes you read right. This is how he has spent $180,000 on the car. And yes, he has receipts.

Ring Keir Wilson right now and ask him - he has bought around 5 of the OS blocks all up due to blowing motors etc .... his wallet knows EXACTLY how much they cost .... I am not sure what exchange rate they were purchased at, but I am sure it was better than it is now too .... only recently he pointed out to me one sitting under his work bench at Willalls looking all lonely - I told him I would happily give it a home :) .... but as it isn't quite in my price range there it stayed :D

just read the paper, and noticed yesterdays stabbing fiasco started at city x where i used to work, and if it was the same group

of '' fitty cent yo's, then it was a long time coming.

doesnt eddie work in city x? Wonder if he was on shift yesterday..

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
