It's weird. I use Firefox.

Instead of the image I get "IPB Image" written there.

The other weird thing is that sometimes I might post in the thread that this happens in and then the images appear.

Other times they never appear.

I've even seen 1 image and several "IPB Image" in the same post, in other words, they are posted in the same way and I can see some but not others.

Also I know it's not just me. People will post 'hey look at these pics' and about 5 people go 'oh cool nice pics' and another couple of people go 'I can't see them'.

It's not a problem with his internet.

It's a problem with the thumbnailing software for the server. If you click on the link it sometimes comes up with the full sized image.

That depends if he's talking about SAU Attachments, or just hotlinked images

He's just referring to this forum, as his title states. I've seen this too, but it's been more stable the last week or so.

You missed my point completely

I could attach an image using SAU

OR, I could host it on my site, and put it here with tags

I see what you mean. Let me clarify then.

If you hot link it with img tags it'll display as per normal. However if you use the attachment feature on the forum the thumbnail will appear as [iPB Image].

That is a classic symptom of image rendering software (such as gkimage) on the server losing it's association with the forum or going down.

Actually it has happened in both ways but more generally stuff that is linked to.

That's a problem with your internet, the host of the image, OR they have hotlink protection on the image host

i go with anti-leech hotlink protection.

here's a fake hotlink where nothing exists:

http://www.theresnolinkhere.com/nolink.jpg

and when placed in IMG tags, you get:

nolink.jpg

same thing would happen if the image was made unavailable by the host.

Also, to make things even trickier, our images are hosted in the US (while other files are in Australia) so if there is a slight delay getting the images when the page is loaded, then you'll get that text. Usually an F5 will fix it.

Ahh so maybe that's it, a delay in the image being available so the browser assumes it's not coming and displays without the image. Is there a setting somewhere on SAU or our browsers where we can give it longer to download?

I just started a thread with I think 5 pics all hosted in the same place (not here) and when I went beack to the thread to check for replies one of the pics was missing.

And then I went back there in the middle of typing this and everything is displaying correctly.

      Starting again

      Had another look at the car and I noticed the fuel pump isn't priming on ignition. I'd taken out the pump from the boot to siphon out the old fuel, so maybe I've knocked something loose or broken a wire putting things back together. Will go back with a multimeter and try to work out what's stuffed. Kinda hoping it's the pump itself thats gone so I can upgrade it

      Yeah agreed, you can't assume that shop are they only people who ever had to work on it. It was just a guess on the mods based on how things were done back then. You can check the Air Flow Meters by the part number on their tags, they are likely either Z32 or Nismo ones (both read about the same but the Z32 one is a little larger while nismo is stock size but supports the higher airflow like a Z32). And yes, all that would get you to 450hp / 340kw To tell what is happening with the turbos, you want a photo of the tag on the core, that will say what it was made out of  (they can retain the front and rear covers to make the plumbing easier)

      1992 R32 GT-R Race Car

      By bardabe · Posted

      I'm selling my personal race car. 1992 BNR32 Skyline GT-R About eight years ago the engine developed the dreaded low oil pressure problem. I removed it and found the issue. However shortly after I moved half way across the country, moved my work shop, bought a house, got married, then moved my shop again to it's permanent location for the time being. in turn I do not have the time to race this car as it should be. In turn the engine I built for this car will end up in my street car and this car I hope finds a home with someone who can use it to it's full potential. The roll bar was built by Jason Noren Fabricaiton in Pomona California to SCCA and NASA Specs. The car used to compete in redline time attack and global time attack enthusiast class. It also has a fire suppression system.  The car is with me at my workshop in Kyle Texas, USA. Shipping it is no problem, I can personally deliver the car to the port of either Houston or Los Angeles. Any other port depending on where it is may require transport but we can always work that out.   The chassis itself is rust free, rear quarters and under fenders are free of any rust so it's a very solid foundation for anyone who wishes to move forward with it. As posted and at the asking price of $20,000 USD the car includes all of the following;   All OEM Body panels, front fenders, rear bumpers etc.  OEM Nissan Projector headlamps (Pictured N1 lamps were removed) OEM Nismo Side Skirts / Extensions OEM Rear Spats  Front & Rear Subframes are installed car is full roller Rear Subframe has Cusco Camber Arms, Whiteline HICAS Elimination Front Subframe has Whiteline tension rods and whiteline Sway bars w/ endlinks.  Buddy Club N1 Coilovers All chassis wiring and engine wiring is in tact. Attessa System is fully in tact and was functional before engine removal.  BCNR33 GT-R Brembo Brakes F+R with Endless MX72 Plus Pads, DBA Rotors & Stainless Steel Brake lines Billion Racing Radiator Billion Radiator Hoses Fluidyne Engine Oil Cooler Accusump System (trunk Mounted) 5 Speed Transmission w/ Transfer Case F+R Prop-shafts Rear Differential With rear Axles.  Nismo Gauge Cluster Nismo Clutch + Flywheel   Essentially what is needed to make this car running and driving again is as follows: A working Engine, an ECU, and time to put it together. The price posted is or best offer as I am willing to remove some components to accommodate price to a certain extent. If any serious buyer wants full detailed pictures, videos, or any questions I'll be happy to answer them. I believe this car is priced to move quickly considering it's a rust free and very straight chassis but always open to fair negotiation.  I can be contacted via phone or email. (+19517081648) email is [email protected]
