Dark mode could do with some love

While I love having a dark mode, it seems really inconsistent, making some areas extremely hard to read or just look off.

It seems to be mainly ok when browsing the forums, but when viewing an actual thread things take a bit of a turn.
 

Example 1: Creating the title for this thread, The text is invisible unless you select it.

Example 2: The user menu at the top is incredibly hard to read on the edge of my crappy TN panel. Might be easier with a monitor that doesn't colour shift so easily. :P

Example 3a: Inconsistencies between viewing an actual thread and browsing the list of threads.

Browsing the list of threads: (looks ok, bar maybe the mark read / sort by buttons)

Looking at an actual thread: (grey title background turns black, buttons turn black, page selector turns black becoming virtually unreadable)

Example 3b: The ads at the bottom of the page display fine while browsing the forums, but turn into big white odd sized boxes while viewing an actual thread.

Browsing the list of threads: (looks fine)

Looking at an actual thread: (looking not so fine)

Is dark mode a feature on SAU or did you download a 3rd party extension? I downloaded a dark mode extension and it works on every site but SAU. Only a few areas are dark.

disregard i figured it out lol

Hi Guys, I'm really sorry for the delay here. I have installed a new dark theme which is based off the default theme. It's very similar to the old dark theme but I have no time to fix the old one. Just change to the new one in the footer and let me know what you think.

      I know mentally you're set on the ATS clutch but honestly I'm a big fan of the Nismo Super Coppermix Twin. It's much cheaper and in some ways I think it's a better design for a street/circuit car.

      Just checked in first post and you should be able to bring it home November this year, right? I'm amazed you made it through four years of this. As hard as it feels now the rest will go by in a breeze in hindsight, I'm sure.

      Realized I haven't been back here in a while. Still here, still alive, still waiting for the car.  I went back again the only time last year from Oct-Nov for R's Meeting and drove it around some more, including a few laps on Fuji Speedway(in the wet, sadly). The car still feels good, but have a couple small things to address. I've been getting more parts but have slowed down still, and most of the bigger purchases are now out of the way. I find myself getting impatient more and more when it comes to getting started on this project; it's quite hard for me not being able to really dive in and start making this car my own because it's halfway across the world. At times it doesn't even really feel like I own one of these. Haven't really been motivated or had the desire to document the last trip on here or social media for, well, reasons... but here's some pics...it's also still alive and well as you can see: I've narrowed down to the last large part purchases(anything over $2k) before the engine build to be: 1) Ohlins Road & Tracks 2) ATS Twin Carbon clutch 3) Endless BBK with some custom options and 4) Kansai Service carbon driveshaft I don't think the budget exists for all of these this year, but I'll try for one or two items I think. Though, every time I look at my spreadsheet I sigh, shake my head, and get depressed just that little bit more.  'til later.

      It's a stunning location!  I've been to NZ twice but haven't made it to the North Island yet.  Definitely on the cards but the South Island is hard to tear yourself away from too... Looking forward to see what you can wring out of it once you can get it to hold together!  Be awesome to get a low 11 or even sneaking into the high 10's pass out of it.  That's a bloody quick car that most people will never experience in their life.  Enjoy!

      Nominally yes but I’m not really at that stage yet. Outsourcing to Japan is also a relatively good deal at the moment because their currency has devalued much more against the USD.  You would assume this but a lot has changed from the pandemic. Mechanics are in short supply and demand for fixing old cars has gone up from the cost of new cars. 250-300 USD/hr is not an unusual shop labor rate in California and you’re paying that regardless of whether the guy is competent or not. Coworkers have been quoted 3000 USD for a water pump and thermostat at a dealer on an N54. Oil changes went from ~75 USD to 150 on fairly normal cars like Civics. The cost of the oil and filter hasn’t even kept up with inflation.
