*** Not meaning to cause embarrasment to anyone with this reply. ***

Moderators are generally top lads and perform their tasks with perfection ( decent suck-up?) >_<

As a general user you MUST respect the moderators.

Mods, honestly have a re-read of that thread ^^ some of the behaviour there 'wasn't right', in my personal opinion. However, thats just an observation from a meaningless twit (ie, me) :woot:

Please take note that I am NOT pointing the bone at anyone, just putting up 1 particular thread where Mods and General Users alike may have gone too far with their respective reply's.

However - keep up the good work!!!

Now, where's that ban? I can feel it coming................. lucky I have one-only "Get Out Of Ban Free" card. lol, joke. :laugh:

*** Please, no disrespect for anyone in regards to the linked thread ***

Nows your time to come forward guys,

I had a reply from Blitzs

Yeah great move from a Admin, post has since been removed

I knew that was coming.

Come on now, you posted a thread linking to a Youtube movie of you doing burnouts in your garage?

I made an observation based on the silly movie I watched, thats not a flame :laugh:

In future I suggest refraining from comments such as telling mods and admins to "wake the fcuk up"

Thats the lammest thing I've seen on this forum? was what you said.

So what mate, It was a quick film . I have a few members on my msn they all found it entertaining and said why not post it on sau.

Im doing my best to contribute "any" skyline realated material no matter if it is small .

Any flaming is stupid and pointless, we are all here for the same reason.

Silent, people are entitled to have an opinion.

The thread where Blitz said "lamest thread" had at least half a dozen other people saying exactly the same thing, but you aren't calling anyone else out on it.

Regardless of what you post, people will have an opinion.

Some may be good, some may be bad.

If everyone thinks and feels exactly the same way, the world would be a very boring place.

You seem to have a habit of starting threads, and the minute you notice a comment which isn't in line with your way of thinking, you blank out all your posts so that nobody else is able to make a judgement call on it.

You removed the content from the thread which you are making a complaint about, so nobody can check if it is in fact the "lamest thread ever" or if the 7 people who posted in the thread saying it was lame are all ganging up on you.

It's exactly the same situation with the thread you started in the wasteland, asking for peoples opinions on a re-make of a song.

I'm familiar with the content of this thread, because I saw the thread before you removed the link to the song, and had a chance to read what you posted.

A couple of people said they liked it, most people said they didn't like it.

Simply because the majority of people said they didn't like it, you cracked the sads and removed the content.

There's no real point complaining that moderators aren't doing their job because you didn't like the feedback that people left in your thread.

If moderators were to remove any negative posts when someone asks for opinions, wouldn't that defeat the purpose of asking for opinions in the first place?

it was a poostir which didnt help anyone...

went something like > who cares / Be grateful you have good moderation's and i think the genoral public can distigu-ish whats write or wrong.

cared for like 30 seconds. then thought F--- it

I removed the thread because "dan_the_man" spammed the shit out of it, about 4 pages of just shit.

100+ individual posts were removed from the music thread, it was dan who cleaned it up.

The thread was going quite well until you made the comment of:

If it wasnt for these guys* we wouldnt have our skylines.

*In reference to 19 year olds who were sent off by their countries to die in Vietnam during the war

I think people had a bit of trouble taking things seriously after you made that comment, and the thread went downhill fairly quickly.

Are you willing to accept a bit of personal responsibility as well?

When you make claims like that, you have to expect that people will be offended by it.

G'day Champ

Sorry you feel so hard done by. We did originally post our first thoughts on your song but you seemed to get upset pretty quickly when we didnt agree with you. I can understand your frustration as we did muck around in your thread after you got upset over nothing. Then pretty much the whole thing became a bit of a joke. As SKY031 said - I was the one who cleaned your thread up for you after you complained and only left the on topic comments in there. Which you obviously still didnt agree with so you went and deleted what you said so the thread was made pointless anyway. So it was removed.

I'm sorry if you've had problems in other threads I havent seen this myself so I cant comment. I think perhaps you need to stop taking things personally :laugh:

All the best mate

Dan

Hang on... I have noticed so much mod bashing recently. You know the single most important thing I have learned from SAU? You cant please everybody.

Mods and Admins have the right to post whatever they want, providing it is within the rules that they are to uphold. That being said, if a mod or admin breaks the rules or has complaints made about him/her, then I will follow that up. But, heres the thing, SAU is extremely laid back! Bannings arn't given out commonly, you wont get banned for voicing your opinion (unless it intervenes with the rules and even then you will be given warnings before the ban stick comes down). I appreciate everybodies feedback and concerns, but at the end of the day I think the mods and admins do a great job on here and should be applauded!

Not sure if any of that made sense, I am doing a bunch of things at once.

And Dan. I love you man.

    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
    • Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.  
    • Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
