Awesome guys, I am trying to keep up with the ideas. Heres a quick update;

Google search has been implemented to run alongside the standard search so people can pick and choose which one they would like. (click 'Search' up the top)

Help Desk has been implemented, I will not be listing the support email address on the forums, all support with have to go through the Help Desk (I cannot tell you how many emails I used to get).

I will be building a new profile system for members which will include a blog and random images from users' members' galleries and also a bunch of other stuff. So that the 'profile' can actually be info about the user.

I am sorry if I have not responded to everybody, I am still going through. :)

That google search must not index much, or will it compile its own index overtime and cache it?

I done a couple of searches, google returned nothing, the onsite search returned heaps of applicable threads.

It seems useless, sorry to sound so negative.

I love this site but find it a little hard to 'cut to the chase' - it's a little daunting moving around this site & finding what you're really looking for...I'm not too experienced with forums & the internet in general, so it could just be me...It's quite hard to keep up with events & cruises going on & I often miss out coz I'm a little slow on the uptake...

Just thought I'd have a say...

RB30-POWER - takes 24hrs to index, so its not 'real time' like the VB site search.

fastRgal - I am writing up a wiki for the site use with instructions, tips etc, should be very useful once its done. :cheers:

a two week wait is nothing. on Overclockers Australia they've banned all free e-mail accounts like yahoo, google, hotmail etc... as well as a 90 day waiting period. While it may not solve all issues the amount of scams and stuff has dropped significantly. They just now run into issues like excessive bumping and stuff.

Please don't implement this idea. I use gmail as my email and the ban on free email accounts is why I barely use OCAU. I have another email address, but I can only check it from certain machines. Gmail is with me everywhere which is why I no longer need or even want POP accounts. If SAU was to follow OCAU here, I'd probably give up posting here since I couldn't have the reply notifications sent to me.

Hey Mic, thats not going to happen, its cool. I personally travel around a lot and before I got a laptop I could only use free email accounts to check mail, so I know what its like.

I have a suggestion and its a bit hard to explain so bear with me.

When i post a reply on this site I end up located at the bottom of the page of the thread that I posted in and have to scroll up to get to the site nav bar to get back to the forum that I posted in (its the way I found quickest as I tried having the thread order reversed and its not my style)

My suggestion is to have a second nav bar at the bottom of thread pages, theres room there above forum jump ( which I find a bit of a hassle )

It a lazy mans suggestion I know but if it improves user experience it could be worth a try.

Also on the PM send message action you have a popup asking for confirmation OK/Cancel I feel it would less confusing as YES/NO

And CHEERS to a good site!!

Reducing the size from 200 to 100 PM's is not going to work for me. I get as many as 30 PM's in one day. By the time I respond the 100 is gone in a couple of days. Can I please have 200 back than you.

Is it possible to change the font and size and maybe colour scheme?

This default layout is a real pita and extremely difficult to see and follow.

With other boards i can usually choose an alternative scheme down the bottom of the board home page, but i can't see an option on this board?

Help is appreciated.

Not sure if this has already been mentioned however it would be good if the 'Topic Reply' notification emails contained the thread title in the subject of the email (like with the old vBulletin).

Saves having to open/read 30 emails a day to find that 20 of them are all about the same thread.

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
