Hi Guys,

Ok, a lot of you are unhappy about the new forums, so hers a quick FYI for you

1. New styles are coming, I'll enable the use of the 'stock' style in the meantime, might make it easier.

2. IPB2 is a quicker forum package than VB, sure some options have been removed but I am working hard on getting them back

3. Please be patient, and document any problems/ideas etc in this thread of forum.

The VB smilies are coming soon, check your CP for options for the quick reply, you each have a blog now and I am working on a garage/timeslips registry + the trader ratings again.

If you are having problems with permissions, send me an email.

Christian

Mass updated everyones user accounts to GMT+10, so that should fix the problem for *almost* everyone.

This has been updated to be enabled by default for every forum now!

Lots of silly little problems, but in the end everything will be much better. The forum could have been kept offline for a longer period until everything was 100% but it's best to have it online I think!

Site seems to be pretty good..

One of the only things i miss though is when you used to hover your mouse over the topic title. it would come up with like the first paragraph or so of that post.

I thought that was a great addition and made surfing the forums much quicker :)

Either way. i think once everything is finished it will be better than the old one :)

hehe. *my 2 cents

I second that. It made browsing much quicker.

Also, people's location should be compulsory, especially useful in the trading section.

Hi Christian - I suspect you are busy!

Is the 'stock' style something we have to pick (I couldn't find anything in the control panel) or is that what we are using?

If you need help testing styles etc, I'm happy to help.

ps As a rough rule of thumb, just about no web site works with a very dark background as the contrast with most colors - except white and yellow - doesn't work, with green and blue particularly bad...

Cancel that question!! I found it on the front page - and boy is the default one better!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I recommend everyone change to it!!!

    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.        
    • Sharing results from recent Liberty Walk R35 GTR, since they are still considered as somesort of a V36 Skyline. We do them turbos too.

The build list for R35 GTR enthusiasts as follow : HyperGear high flowed stock turbos in SS1 (G25-660 specs) Custom titanium intake pipes. Vspec performance titanium front pipes. Vspec performance 4" titanium exhaust. Upgrade fuel pumps. 1200cc injectors. Ignition coilpacks Hks intake plenum. Hks intercooler piping. Greddy intercooler. Greddy bovs. Top-secret coolant reservoir. Emtron ecu. Straight E85. Built gear box.  
    • 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!
