Hello fellow Sklyine and import car enthusiats.

Of late it has been brought o my attention that the WA forum has taken a turn for the worse. I will now quote two of the 20+ PM's I've received complaining about the slide our forums have taken.

G'day Troy,  

what's with all the fighting on SAU lately?  

Seems to me that since a few people joined during the last few months, the whole WA section has degraded into a big slag match area.  

It's so boring to read; in fact I .... and a couple of other people I know of ... can't even be bothered reading it as much now because lately it's been filled with the same drivel.  

You don't have to take any notice of this PM .. I'm just releasing some pent-up frustration and I'm sorry it was to you  

Cheers

and

whoring  

Its really starting to put me off to...  

I know we are all to blame but since i talk to (name witheld) a fair bit i constantly tell him to tone it down but im talkin to a brick wall!  

As soon as he starts going everyone else joins in  

If you have a look at most forums as im sure u know there isnt any foreign talk on most of them......a little...  

Just thought id say cause im not the only one who hesitates in posting because its so clogged full of shit!  

cheers

These came from two different forum members who have been here quite awhile now and they have both contibuted greatly to it.

I've also had complaints about over moderating, but the moderating has only increased recently due threads going off-topic, slanging matches starting (which has been identified as one of the reasons are put off), whoring to name the main issues. Please keep the whoring to the whore thread. The last week has been very good in this respect. As for slanging match we had our worst incident of this during the last week. Below is a copy of the forum rules which you all accepted when you signed up. If we can stick as close to possible to these the majority of people using the forum will be happy and there should very little moderating to be done.

Thankyou for you time.

Troy

another complaint from a long time member.

whats the story...  

Mate,  

Just thought i'd stick my hand up about the "odd" goings on in the forum.  

It is shit to read now.. but i can't tell you Y. The whoring has a lot to do with it i guess.. but i dunno...doesn't feel comfortable.  

I think the Mirc is a good idea. If we can get that happening then ppl can talk all they want...although why they haven't heard of a phone i do not know...  

 

As for the moderating..the thing that makes me laugh, is nearly everytime you say something to "lay down the law"  

(which has to be done)  

there is a post in a little voice just after it from PVA echoing what you said  

mods see those rules above start enforcing them. when u do mod a post pm the person and in the post do the following

mod: (why u moderated the post)

    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
