Well most of you would be well aware of what happened yesterday about the unfourunate attack on a Latrobe University student in the Borchardt library toilets. I was actually in the library when this occured.

I was sitting at a computer station amongst another 30 people or so.. and it was dead quiet. Then to my suprise as im deep in writing a paper on global environmetal issues :P i hear screaming. It was actually very very loud considering how quiet a library is. The poor girl comes running down the main flight of stairs behind me screaming and holding her side. Everyone didnt know what was happening. Word got around within a few seconds after she yelled that she had been stabbed and about half the people around me evacuated the library immediately. Within a minute or two, Latrobe security were on the scene (full credit to there quick respose) and everyone started exiting the library. About 10 people stayed around the girl and compforted her the best they could until medic could arrive. By then i was on my way out of the library.

Anyway pretty hairy stuff. I didnt realise the extent of it. (maybe just thought it was a dispute between 2 girls and one of them stabbed the other with a pen or something)

Apparently this girl is a little crazy! and had thoughts of killing someone, brought steak knives to school, and waited in the bathroom for someone.

Well thats my story, nothing too amazing or nothing that most havent heard on the news. I hope the girl makes a fully recovery and is back on her feet as soon as possible. And the bitch :wave: that did that, gets exactly whats she deserves. the full extent of the law. (anyone know how, when and where they caught her?)

I think that the University and Library staff handled the situation very well and responded immediately. :D

any other experiences or insights?

People need to loosen up, I mean seriously what is with the world today? Gee the person sh|ts me, think I'll take a gun or knife to school and kill someone....I get so sick of hearing about this sort of crap on the news and the worst thing is it seems to be a more common occurrence these days.

i think all the violent games, movies and progams that are socially accepted today has something to blame. i mean i love to play gory shot&chop em up games once in a while, watch a scary graphical movie once in a while but everythings been kinda overloaded over the years people have become de-sensatised even on normal tv like CSI and the like and that freakin live anatomy on SBS...wtf?? talk about teaching some phsyco how to carve someone up. my lil sis whos only in primary school sometimes surfs the channel to find someone decapatated or their chest ripped open on those crime investigation series. when i was in highschool(class of 96) i dont remember anything as graphical as these programs on tv...you had to actually make an efffort to find it....anyone remember faces of death? those were farked up.

the worlds a stranger place now then it was back then....

ah apparently from what i heard on the news, that she had a ruptured spline, and a puncted lung. now i saw her running down the stairs and didnt see a hell of a lot of blood. so naturally i didnt think it was as bad. but adreniline and shock will cause you to be very active and loud no matter whats happened to you. its f**king sad that there are people out there (even in Melbourne) thats think and act in such a manor. i hope she gets everything she deserves and then some.

hey jake you might have seen my sis as she was at the bottom of the stears and on her way up to the toilt when this happend she said she was about 30 sec from going in there. :blink: .

pretty sad tho, and as to what one of you guys said about all the voilence to day i would have to agree, all you ever see with games movies or tv shows is sex, sexual refrences and voilence and or how you should live your life.

Thank god we can't buy guns at KMart.

HaHa...you seen that doco also? ...Bowling for Culombine with that Moore dude?

Aparently in America they also get special deals when opening up a new account with a bank. -Open a new account, get a free gun!. LoL @ Americans handing out guns in a bank :thumbsup:

I heard on the radio the offender is being charged with murder, didnt apply for bail and is in custody till August for a hearing.

I can't belive the ammount of bullshit thats going on in todays world... but the worst part about it is we don't hear or see half of the shit that goes on...

I suppose Australia isn't as bad as other countries, the media makes it out like we're just as bad but thats their job (to scare the public as much as "making them aware")

They blame these sorts of issues on video games as such... everyone who's been involved in shooting/stabbing people especially work or school colleagues have had past mental issues and people have actually spotted it just like what you said jake33, that she was cracked and people don't actually try to help them or point them in the right direction instead they point the finger and say "haha your f**ked in the head... get away from me".

Instead of pointing the finger maybe they should give people a hand and help them through their physchoticness (if thats even a word). They really should be getting to the roots of the problems not waiting till it grows and then try and fix it..

FFS people have pshycotic episodes all the time and people can see that they do... but hey everyone is for themselves so i suppose it'll just keep hapening.

My 2 cents...

i believe that one of the biggest factors in the general degeneration of society today is the break down of family and social values.

it can't be coincidence that as the rate of suicide, drugs, abortion, violence etc goes up so does the rate of divorce and the break-down of the family structure.

my 2 cents.

Hmm I was at latrobe when this happened, and I had absoloutly no idea, I didn't see the police the ambulances or the news crew until I got home. I thought my friend was joking.....

I agree very much with what Gazee said. It's easy to point your finger and comment on how sick and twisted they are but you have to ask yourself why they're that way. Could be for a whole heap of tragic reasons. I'm no expert on the matter, but it seems that alot of the shootings that happened in the US were done by kids that were being teased, and given crap for being weird.

Latrobe sent everyone (who goes there) a few emails, the person who commited the stabbing has been charged with attempted murder. They are also offering counselling to anyone who may need it involving the matter which is good to see.

Of course there's all kinds of rumors going around, such as the girl who commited the stabbing studied behavioural science (how ironic.. probably untrue) and that she talked about killing or wanting to kill people or something.. meh rumors.

But I feel sorry for all parties involved, because for some sad reason ones persons life got screwed up, and because of that it's going to get worse, and now another persons life is going to be screwed up. And then theres all the trauma involved for those that witnessed it ect ect..

so... in america they have shooting rampages but in australia they have stabbings... WE NEED TO CATCH UP! jk jk

some people need a pole to the spine, so they know they arnt the only one who is crazy!

    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
