RIP to Mihn and hope the survivors pull thru. Life will never be the same again.

Hopefully a few lessons can be learnt from this tragedy.

I saw my two nieces yesterday (one 13, one 14) and I showed them the Sunday Mail article and sat down with them. They've always enjoyed their Uncle "Roo" visiting with his fast cars and bikes ... but this time I outlined to them how dangerous vehicles are and how easily things can go wrong. I'd be devastated if they were ever harmed in a road accident. I've seen enough horror crashes and enough death myself. The thought of something like this ever involving my family scares me. I can't even imagine what the parents from Friday night/Saturday morning's tragedy are going thru.

Those who have family coming of age to be driving soon ... don't shelter them from this kind of horror. Show them what can go wrong, and make sure they can protect themselves and make their own correct decisions in life.

Nasty, and pointless loss of life :banana:

For those of us left though we have a target on our collective Skyline backs of a size never seen before. The smiling cheesy front mount intercooler and piping on the front page of the Sunday Mail combined with the claimed 400hp+ from a Nissan GT400R and the highlight that the cars are the tools of death has ensured that Skyline drivers will be publicly persecuted with extreme prejudice. Whether it is some 'do gooder know nothing' with a pen and folder taking down your number and reporting you (as offered by members of the public in the Sunday Mail story), or the vengeance of SAPD which will now be even more carefully trained to be aware of/seek and destroy Skylines, the spotlight is now on us. These cars have been publicly branded "Killers" by Mike Ranns offsiders (the Sunday Mail, and Mal Hyde) and now we will have to pay the price. Dark days ahead for SA Skylines :bunny:

Cruises are something you will be able to tell the grandkids about. For those that doubt me, roll the dice and give Officer Neils boys a chance :(

Imagine their smiling SAPD faces on the cover of the Advertiser under a "Killing Spree" headline defecting impounding a group of 10-15 Skylines with innocent startled looking drivers on hand. The generally stupid and brainwashed public will see it akin as the coppers thwarting a mass murder :P

And once more RIP Minh....

couldn't agree more! the SAPOL will have their skyline blinkers on from now on, so people please exercise some common sense!!!! dont stuff it up for the rest of us.

mate i live in magill too and i must admit i have at times given my many lines a squirt down thru norton summit and the hills BUT i have never done something as stupid as hurtling down a main road in excess of 150 kph with other people in the car or not. again SAPOL will be on the hunt for any import driver who steps out of line, so to be short please dont act like an imbecile and give them even more of an excuse to brand us all as hoons. save it for the track!!! there are many clubs you can join to get access to track time.

    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
