whats doing...couldn't post in their "for sale" section. couldn't work out why...so i posted in general chat and asked moderator to have it moved to appropriate section. Guess what....apparantly you have to have a certain ammount of posts there before you can put stuff up for sale. So instead of kindly informing me...as a few guys did.....the d1ckheads banned me....no warning, no nothing. So they want me to fill their site with posts of dribble to get enough posts to sell. Go figure?

Well... most forums will require that you have a minimum amount of posts before being able to sell. We don't want any runners!

I think you would have gotten banned for not reading the rules, which will probably tell you about the minimum post requirement. SAU has the same setup... but don't just make random posts about nothing. If you're new to a forum, announce yourself in a new thread, then reply as people ask or comment on your car or whatever the forums theme is.

i've been on nissansilvia for a fair while man

what is your username on it?

i will try get a moderator to clear it up

it is a bit stupid though banning you when you didnt know

rule is 100 posts first so people can read a decent post history and see what sorta person you are (their way of trying to fish out the dodgeys)

I've been on NS for a few years and while there's a lot more 15 year old tossers that need to be banned from there you shouldn't discount the small number of people with lots of experience and serious machines.

Anyway, while banning was a bit harsh, the rules are there for a very good reason. I along with many others have been ripped off for a fair bit of money and such instances have decreased drastically since the rules were put in place. Think how many scammers could have been avoided on here if similar measures were put in place.

I was on there for a couple of days and saw alot of people in random threads post one word

or somthing saying

"ignore this need to get postcount to sell somthing"

so it's just making more spam and crap for the rest of the foumr - honestly I think 100 is a little high

It used to be 40 but after long discussions it was put up because its much harder to put in 100 spam posts unnoticed in a short time than it is to do 40. Of course there's people with 1000s of only spam posts, but not all in the 1 day to post up an ad.

Also, posts in the off-topic, members discussion rides and maybe a few others, don't count towards your total which helps reduce the spam a bit.

I'm all for a minimum post count on forums before you can advertise stuff.

Most of the forums I'm on are communities, not trading posts. Its about a group of people who are into certain hobbies.

The guys who own and run it pay out of pocket for expenses. If they get donations, its hardly enough to pay for the hosting and bandwidth. And they see nothing of the transactions that their system is facilitating (unlike commercial trading / advertising sites).

So if random tourists wander in to start whoring their wares without adding to that community, it just brings it down.

As for banning you, that's about right for ns.com. Petty little idiots. Let them stay in their sandbox.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
