I think a few people need to take a chill pill.....

BrendanF: What is your solution to this problem? You don't seem to want the endless joke posts of Team Westside in the NSW forum, yet you don't want a dedicated Team Westside forum. How can we get around this?

You also need to realise that the whole Westside thing has nothing to do with geography, it's a group of friends that started in the west & has now spread all over Sydney. It is far from exclusive. The only criteria for joining is that you just wanna have a good time & forget about all the politics that are happening on this board nowadays......

Cereal et al,

I am happy to re-iterate myself once more, so in good faith and without prejudice I will declare my opinion (NOTE: ONLY MY OPINION again, NOTE : not having a go any any person here)

At no point have I ever (EVER EVER) said that there was a problem with the jokes, gay comments and the like in the NSW section. I have repeatedly stated that I enjoy the TW antics. Thus, And yes, it is unfortunate that I haven't been to a TW meet yet so you guys could get to know me a little better. It's not that I don't go to any meets BTW, I have met heaps of nice people at track days, cruzes, dyno days and the likes. (Don't you guys look in the other sections on the forums ?? I have posted heaps of dialog and photos from these times) I will also share with you my understanding (note : understanding and NOT inititiated by me) that the mods felt that the gay/jokes/comments/etc in the NSW were not offensive enough to FORCE TW to initiate the so called private forum. In fact, I think, the majority of folks (like myself) enjoy the TW antics. As you all know I am a mod of the NSW section - Is there ANY incident of my moderation that offended or controlled the TW posts ?? If there is I apologise and would welcome a reference to the offense.

I really find it sad, time consuming and totally unforefilling to have to post these kinds of replys.

My ONLY issue is with any, group or sub group of SAU (except mods, cause u need them) having the privilage to have a private section to them selves on the forums. And I really don't give a toss what ppl are posting in these sections.

There are two solutions to this problem:

1) Give NSW, VIC, WA, ACT, SA, TAS, NT, and all the other sub groups below these , their own private section so they can all be gay/offensive/take the piss etc out our own respective group of friends and buddies..

OR

2) Remove the TW private forum and make it public (with disclaimer if you like)

NOTE TO ALL - I don't say remove the TW section, just make it public, with disclaimer.

Then all groups, states, and sub groups are even and equal. No bitching and quarelling. No secrets to SAU members...

There you go two solutions - anyone got another one that is WIN-WIN ???

I am really really sad , sorry and bemused why this issue has come to the extent of me posting this reply......

Final note to all : If you think I am being un-fair , send a note to Prank, Dino, Minh or any other SAU mods or execs. Or post a poll. What ever comes out of it , that's OK, for I know for myself that I am being fair and just to all SAU members.

Peace, Love and Skylines everyone . . . . . . . .

I agree with cereal's post...

Team Westside is (from what i read on here) simply a bunch of mates sharing good times and stories, jokes etc.

How anyone could be offended by thier material is something i find confusing... There is alot of BS happening in seemingly every other section of the forums... The NSW stuff posted by team westside is always: in good humour, fun, informative and friendly, there is no prejudice/bias or ill feeling... this is not the case with alot of threads outside NSW/ Team Westside...

Thats why i post and read in the NSW threads these days... Because with Team Westside and alot of you NSW guys it aint about ego, where your from, looking big or who has the most posts... Its about the Cars.... Its about having fun....

Thats why I joined here and i respect that more than anything....

Nice one Ryan - please stay asleep !!

Cereal - if there is no Geography involved then why is it Team Westside and not SAU ???

And, if you wanted it left to the mods, why did you ask me to come up with a solution ?? And I gave you two solutions....

Smooth - I think you agreeing with me re TW is fun !! Let's share it with everyone !! Not keep it private.

FFS - if I am alone here, then I QUIT ! ( good one Ryan & TW - you won fellas !!)

It's not my place to argue this issue, so I'm gonna accept whatever decision is made by the moderators.

I will make one last comment though:

You will reach an agreement alot sooner if you stop changing your stance on the issues at hand.

Just one question, and I apologise if I missed this whilst I was in Japan, but I don't understand the reasoning behind making it hidden in the first place?

If people complained about TW thread overtaking the NSW forums (ROFL!), and a seperate forum was made to accomodate them, why make it hidden?

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

      Power steering pump r32

      By waxracing · Posted

      Thanks Mate, I did know you could do that but i know there is a pump out there that you can bolt on and it all lines up. I was told about it and then forgot the model, I figure if i am pulling it apart i will just put a new one on

      Rear subframe stay bracket bolt removal issues

      By DatsunBanana · Posted

      Trying to swap the rear subframe on my R34 and can't remove the L-shaped stay brackets between the front subframe mounts and the sill/chassis. I'm in the UK so rust is a problem. I've used loads of WD40 and then Tunap 103 for days beforehand. I backed off the bolts forward a bit, backward a bit repeatedly for ages to try and avoid snapping. They have all moved a few full turns. The one I've spent most time on has come loose and I can turn with fingers, and it will pull down and push up 2-3mm. But it won't come out. I can tighten it back up and loosen it off again repeatedly but it still won't come out. I assumed there's a captive nut inside but if that's broken loose then I can't understand why I can always tighten the bolt back up - I'd expect it to just spin both ways. Any ideas what's happening here? I can't visualise what's inside there to cause this.
