Recommended Posts

you do not understand the temptation to whore this thread... but i took some pills and they have calmed me down...

hehe j/k... yer i agree but i think we all should be allowed to have a bit of fun, but i agree that sometimes the whoring goes too far...

brain fart?

=============

rather than start a spam session and put ppl in the pit i will explain it in ur post... a brain fart is what is generally conceived in most ppls mind as a good idea... but often we find that this is incorrect and rather than stopping and thinking about what they are about to post they just wildly mash keys in an epileptic mannor which some how manage to resemble words and string together a somewhat half coherent sentence which neither adds to the original subject matter nor does it enhance our forum going precence and in fact makes us 10% dumber everytime we read it.

btw im not going to close this thread because i would like some feedback so long as it is warranted and productive... anything other than this will be removed.

just a reminder

Hey guys, I'm new to this forum and everything so far seems ok. There have been a couple of warm welcomes and it's been great. Although I have been subjected to anyone's rudeness, and therefore haven't seen it myself, I can't really empathize with you guys. I do think however that it's great that you guys are acknowledging that there is a problem and are trying to do something about it. Remember, admitting you have a problem is the first step (Gees that sounds like a line taken directly out of an A.A meeting!!!) But you have to remember that out of the number of ppl that have joined up to this forum there are bound to be a few spastics!! So TWO THUMBS UPS Inark!!! (by the way, I live in the suburb right next to you!!)

Keep it on topic guys. And try be a lil more sensitive to how others might feel about your comments, whether in jest or otherwise.

:D thanks for the input skygal its always welcome when its constructive which is what i want. I agree that there is bound to be the odd "idiot" but so long as people realise that just adding fuel to the fire and flaming them as much as they can isnt the best way to resolve things then it makes it easier to sort these issues out.

the great people on this forum far out weigh the troublesome and this is the way i'd like it to stay.

hey nark, is it possible to make it in such a way that only certain members, (e.g. ones that have been registered long enough, or made enough posts.) are able to create new threads?

i know on PF, i couldn't even post a reply to an item i wanted to buy until after 90 days after i registered... was irritating, but definately stopped my itchy fingers from spamming all the other threads about their prices.

probably but that would mean new ppl to the forums would not be able to post and i would prefer that they would be allowed to. In the for sale sections on most forums you find that there is a waiting period before you are allowed to post a new or even reply to a thread.

We should have a Elite Section. Like a second level? or maybe trusted members who have been active on the forums can create new threads? eg: 3 months probationary period who can only post in the for sale/wtb section then after that they can post?

    • Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.
    • I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.
    • I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.
    • From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.
    • They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
