those of us who live in slummy areas (through no choice of our own) have to deal with this type of crap every day.

In fact, so much of it goes on, that it doesn't even make it into the press anymore.

If you want to be paranoid, then buy a scanner, and listen to what's REALLY going on around you.

You'd be suprised.....

K - I have a scanner :P

And I was born and lived in Sunshine for 27 years, dont talk to me about slums - I am from slumshine, though we used to call it scumshine :( [there are some nice people there too but a lot of bad sh|t always goin down].

This is probably the closest shooting / killing to my own home.

oh btw I am not freaking...not yet anyways :(

um I think thats what Pred was getting at...........;-)

um, yes :P

yer, its the old rich idiots around there... they get really scared even when u have a damn party for godsakes.. so freakin boring..then again walking into the supermarket lookin like u just stepped out out of dandy is great entertainment - shows how isolated the minds of these people are.

I believe everyone has and does make choices in life.

Yeah, I choose to live in a suburb where my child can't play outside without shoes because there are syringes everywhere.

I think that's a reasonable decision to make.

Honestly, if I had a choice, I wouldn't be here.

Not everyone has a clear cut life.

I'm sure the guy that got shot 'chose' to deal drugs, so he got what was coming to him.

;)

hmmm.. i didn't come from a rich family, never went to a rich school, never grew up in a good area, and i could'a just lived that life, but i didn't and i got out of it and doing ok for myself.. its all about intelligent decisions u can make - like Dale was saying..

anyway, this is all off topic!

like gordo said, don't give a flying f*ck if they all kill each. The less of them the better.

And that S2000 would go for a ridiculously cheap price at the police auctions wouldn't it?? I heard that u can get the best cars for like half what u'd pay privately.

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
