I think its a top idea - need approval from prank...posted in the mod section.

Re moderating threads, thats how the DIY section is set up to keep it as clean as possible, but its still a pain to mod because people*always* post their thread 3 times when it doesn't appear straight away, also if it takes a day or 2 to approve then it can be too late anyway.

Better to just have a normal section but moderate it more tightly - move off topic threads etc.

Sounds a great idea. Duncan may have the right format.

Maybe a section on the actual making, and another on people seeking advice.

yep was how i thought about it as well..

DIY type section of - this is how this was made and completed.

Help/discussion - im thinking of making this, or im stuck with this etc etc

Duncan, tight modding will be good, and if setup from the get go it will be easier to close re-posts of the same type of discussions.

obviously im willing to help out if any is required in this regard, after all if it goes ahead it will have been my fault :)

You dont want to be able to create some Fabrication section for the reason of "how do i weld" or "how do i get cooler piping to line up" "help me i cant fit my cooler" type of questions which would fill the section with useless information rather than decent technical information (for people that use the search/read the section)

That sounds like more busy work for you guys... :mellow: but given the standard of information on this site it sounds like a logical evolution.

New topics have to be approved by the area moderator first so that the silly questions rather than the helpful threads are avoided.

Excellent idea. Hopefully, the forum will self monitor in a way once the tone is set.

Great idea.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
