To keep the people who complained out of the forum. If their fragile minds can't handle the smutty humour then they shouldn't be subject to such childish jokes and gutter language.....

Personally I think TW is part of NSW, and shouldn't be segregated like it is now. I enjoyed reading the funny TW threads.

Then you should be given access (Not that you haven't somehow managed to take it anyway....) to the forum.

I don't have access to it. I was told about it by a mate. :lol:

George, you are right dude - However :

PLEASE PM these people to me or one of the mods.

I DON"T KNOW OF ANY ........ ! ! ! ! ! ! !

And if I don't know - I can't do anything about it !!

You don't get it. Once again I'll repeat myself. You want to make it public and put a disclaimer. OK. I have no doubt it'll turn out like the wasteland. People will still whinge DESPITE the disclaimer, and of course you'll crack down and not allow stuff. Why? Because you want it to be a "family safe" website. Well, if this is the case, then you'd have to do the same thing to the westside forum you did to the wasteland then. Wasteland has a disclaimer doesn't it? Yet you insist no hot chick threads etc, cause you want "family safe". Double stanards galore. Yeah, nice work :)

Exactly my point SmoothLine. Exactly my point. You just add people in as they agree not to whinge, done and done. Then all someone has to do is say "I'd like access to the westside forum please, i enjoy reading their threads" and then you add them in. Takes 30 seconds to do.

How is that supposed to happen when people don't know about the hidden forum?

In any case, lemme in :)

Since I don't have access yet, I will post here :

Being a mod of the NSW section, I have found none of the private TW threads offensive at all. In fact I have found most of them to be to be quite funny.

I do take offence to be being precluded from the TW section. And the narrow mindedness of certain ppl from TW.

But I think Minh is a funny bastard !!! :)

That is all .

that's easier said than done ryan. see what you didn't think of when you went ahead and created this section without asking was the implications. you can't create just this one secret forum. if this stays then squizz wants a garage spank section. there'll be numerous other factions asking for one and we'll have crap everywhere. but if that's what everyone wants then it will be done. it is everyones forum after all!

Merli: People who read it previously would obviously know about it by now, There's been multiple threads mentioning it, everybody that cruises now knows about it, you found out from your friend, etc.. you get what i mean. Anybody who read it anyway will or probrably has already heard about it, so as people think "hey! i liked reading that! i want access!" they can go and ask to be added, those who didn't read it, didn't care, don't have to and won't take any notice...

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
