I think its a top idea - need approval from prank...posted in the mod section.

Re moderating threads, thats how the DIY section is set up to keep it as clean as possible, but its still a pain to mod because people*always* post their thread 3 times when it doesn't appear straight away, also if it takes a day or 2 to approve then it can be too late anyway.

Better to just have a normal section but moderate it more tightly - move off topic threads etc.

Sounds a great idea. Duncan may have the right format.

Maybe a section on the actual making, and another on people seeking advice.

yep was how i thought about it as well..

DIY type section of - this is how this was made and completed.

Help/discussion - im thinking of making this, or im stuck with this etc etc

Duncan, tight modding will be good, and if setup from the get go it will be easier to close re-posts of the same type of discussions.

obviously im willing to help out if any is required in this regard, after all if it goes ahead it will have been my fault :)

You dont want to be able to create some Fabrication section for the reason of "how do i weld" or "how do i get cooler piping to line up" "help me i cant fit my cooler" type of questions which would fill the section with useless information rather than decent technical information (for people that use the search/read the section)

That sounds like more busy work for you guys... :mellow: but given the standard of information on this site it sounds like a logical evolution.

New topics have to be approved by the area moderator first so that the silly questions rather than the helpful threads are avoided.

Excellent idea. Hopefully, the forum will self monitor in a way once the tone is set.

Great idea.

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
