I'm 31- doctoral student in the UK (Theology) but about to head back home to Texas.  Hobbies for me include flying, skeetshooting, music, reading, cooking (kudos to Surfpico for her steak love..it is all about the beef), and rowing with rugby and cricket mixed in on the side.. Though when I get back home I don't foresee myself playing alot of cricket in Texas...

Mush, I'm in Noblesville, Indiana, which is about half an hour north of Indianapolis.Check out my post above in this thread. If it shoots, I'm probably interested in it. My dad builds muzzle loaders from scratch as well. Firearms just sorta run in our family.

looks like i have more in common with some of you than i would've thought ;pi too study jiu-jitsu, listen to and play the guitar in a heavy metal band, love rally (own a MY05 wrx), and am an avid computer gamer (CS:S, BF2, etc.).  got my B.S. in computer science a little while ago and am working as a network specialist for a school district, though i'm looking to continue on and get my masters and ph.d before long so i can get back into theory and research.  also used to race R/C cars which i would like to get back into someday (i have a buggy, truck, and a pancar).i like to think of myself as non-materialistic (i attrribute this to the fact that i came from a very poor family) and as a minimalist (very few icons on my desktop, very few 'knick-knacks' around my house, etc.).

Henesy is awesome i love it, chivas gets you drunk fast, i really wanna try the blue labelAs for cars, im into Japanese cars, just got a little into the US car scene. I just bought two ford probe gts, they are pretty awesome for their price. I have the basic setup, air intake, straight piping, headers and so on. As for japanese cars, I have a mitsubitshi evo 7 and a skyline r34 nur spec. My evo, has crazy mods, its up to 430hp. I have changed camshafts, boost controller, suspension, brembo calipers, drilled rotors, port polish, to scare people i have gas shoot out from the sides, custom tuned. Haven't spent time with my r34 much because i left once i bought it.I collect guns too but just a beginner, i have a couple of klashinokov, jeep mounted rocket launcher, im not joking, and so on.

Cam swap, boost controller, and head work will not get you another 140 hp out a 4g. When did you have your R34 imported, and who did the de-tuning to register it?

Gotcha, my mistake. If you really do own one, please excuse my skepticism. But, I find that 99% of people online who claim to own an R34 (Especially in addition to several other cars at the age of 22), really dont. Same is true for Supra's, 900 hp FD's, S-15's, ect, ect.

i had a couple of ford probes ... beat the livin hell out of those cars, and they kept on runnin (thanks mazda).  the oil pumps sucked balls, though .. and the e-brakes always had the tendency to freeze up if you left the car parked for more than a week or two.but when i graduated from the probe, i took the wrx route.  after having all the room in the hatchback, i needed a wagon to keep me happy.  now i just gotta get the $$ to swap for an sti engine and drivetrain ;Poh, and bookers bourbon all the way :)

Well...that bass I showed you guys...the Warwick.  It is now mine. $1200 CAD.  Passive pickups, Volume, tone, and bass/treble knobs, Bubinga body, Ovengkol neck, Wenge fretboard, full two octave neck (24 frets).  When I first got it, I had it in the case, just staring at it.
