People should have to sit an IQ test and a mental stability test before being able to get a gun. How many people have been killed because someone is just fkd in the head.

*shakes head* - another waste of innocent lives.

When will Americans learn that perhaps just because its 'my right' to own a gun, doesnt make it a good idea.

Guns should be illegal - perhaps that would end all the stupid pointless massacres that happen over there.

I wonder what the yearly statistics are:

Number of people dying from 'gun rampages' vs Number of people dying from "Al-Qaeda"

Stats would be interesting..

Having said that, the amount of violence that is on TV, Computer Games, and Internet is just not helping the situation.

I feel sorry for the families of these innocent people.

Yes because making things illegal immediately makes criminals rethink their whole lives and become mobile ice-cream vendors.

The worst shooting in Switzerland happened in a.......Gun Free Safe Zone :) those signs sure saved all those people hey?

Looking at most multiple shootings in the US they happen where registration and resrictions on conceal and carry have been enforced by the state and usually in 'gun free' zones.

:rofl:

Lucky it's not Victoria. They'd use it to justify more speed camera's :ermm:

Speed cameras, same logic but for a petty act.

Just another day is the US, some of these kids r so farked up

any1 else notice all the mistakes in that article?

"The disturbed teen's landlord said he was upset about being fired from his job at McDonald's and when she saw him with a gun last night thought he was going hunting with her sons."

"Television images showed paramedics taking a people on a stretchers into ambulances outside the mall."

"Jennifer Kramer and her mother hid in the men's department of Von Maur, praying that "God would spare us"."

"We heard about 35, 40 shots, and on our way we did see someone down by the escalator, bleeding,'' witness Jennifer Cramer told local television station KETV.

Most crimes are committed by guns that are illegaly owned or stolen, in fact if you own a gun and confront someone with it your are more likely to be shot by your own gun than you shooting them.

The whole gun situation over there is just out of control.

And they don't even do anything about it!

With the amount of guns they have on the streets there is not much they can do about it now, too little too late, have you seen bowling for columbine?

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
