Fair point all, I think though if all topics that are not "on topic" are placed in the wasteland we are just going to get everyone confused, and if you are reading something interesting it will get lost in all the other random posts, i haven't logged on here since last night (broadband down at work) and there is about 4 new pages just today! if i wanted to find something particular it certainly would get confusing.

I think having a subsection for something like "general SA members banter" would be a problem as we would have a subsection for a subsection, but things like "computer jargon" and "the pregnancy thread" "jokes thread" are a good read. Maybe people really need to have something that is interesting or important to SA people before starting a new thread maybe?

Discuss!!

Karl, I personally don't mind threads like Jokes & Computer Jargon, it's just some of the other crap that gets started that leaves me very cold and really wastes my time.

A good example of a recent thread (where I contemplated giving about 10 members a holiday) was that 9 page effort (all in one day) with 100 IBTL's and other crap in it.....I spent over 1 hour reading thru immature dribble, time I could've spent with my kids.

So how do we handle the crap threads and who calls the shots as to what's crap and what isn't........someone's rubbish can be someone elses gold, so I'd be dammed if I deleted and dammed if I didn't......how do you please everybody?? :P

im looking for GTR seats and wanting to know if any would fit into an R31?

yes, yes they can. pm matty t, hes a 31 nut, he'll be able to steer you in right direction... eventually.

the weber is at auto carby services getting the delux treatment. got a set of TRX meshies coming in on the weekend, and the fuel tank is almost keeping fuel inside it.

that will be all sorted soon as, all that will be needed next is getting some exhaust place to plum up between the turbo n the carby

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
