Hi,

From this sentence:

"This tutorial is partially based off "

On http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/R3...18#entry4561718

Was my tutorial, I also re-attached the 4 images earlier in the thread to my tutorial page.

Title was:

Skyline Speedo Correction (R33 example, Nismo cluster) - minor adjustments without extra parts...

Unfortunately everytime I post nothing appears to happen it submits to the server fine, I checked my info page and the tutorials section I can't post.

And since I can't edit I've lost the formatting I did :P

Is it going through some kind of moderation where it needs approval?

Or is there something wrong?

I've attempted posting the tutorial 3 times on 2 different days, always on Firefox, don't have an issue with replying to threads or creating in other sections like this :P

Thanks,

Gareth

I'm referring to:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Tu...IY-FAQ-f57.html

When I click "New Topic", with the topic title in my original post, "Skyline Speedo Correction (R33 example, Nismo cluster) - minor adjustments without extra parts...", and enter a lot of text (see the other post I referred to) and click submit....nothing happens!

I mean the page goes away, just as if it had created the thread, I check, the thread doesn't exist!

Its very confusing, maybe its a bug with the title or something, no errors, just no thread created.

I'm aware of the cannot edit due to certain dodgy people abusing it, but I'm actually referring to creating a new *thread* in the tutorial section. I might try again tonight...

Ok - now you make sense... i can say thing

Tutorial section is moderator approved only.

Has been for years :)

I can see you've posted half a dozen threads... so someone when they get time will read it and clean up/approve

Lol, I was thinking it maybe moderator approved, but I didn't see it written *anywhere* is that section, so I ended up posting about 3 times.

I think they will all be the same, sorry about that.

Maybe there should be a sticky on writing a tutorial and the fact that its moderator approved? I found afterward's what looked like a template but I'd already written my tutorial and I won't be able to edit it anymore :)

sorry mate that's my fault (and Paul's lol)

all new threads require moderator approval in that section, and since my email address changed I haven't been getting notifications.....so I didn't think to go check.

I'll straighten it out now.

    • Kinkstah, no, coilovers aren't illegal, especially as a bolt straight in. The illegal part will be if they're altering suspension geometry beyond factory limits, or the ride height is not legal.   Sounds like the blue slipper just didn't want to deal with any later possibility of mods appearing on the car.
    • The problem has always been that coilovers are able to be adjusted, almost at any time, to be too low. Most people who ever get/got defected for/with coilovers were actually afoul of the minimum ride height rule. So the interpretation by cops/inspectors was always that it is pointless to allow numpty to raise his coilovers and get the car inspected/cleared, then just drop them back down again as soon as they get around the corner from the inspection station.  This led to the interpretation that they were illegal unless rendered such that they can't be adjusted (ie, collars welded to the body, that sort of thing). That may or may not have ever actually been the official line, but I'm pretty sure it's not considered to be a solution these days. Coilovers themselves fall under clause 3.2 b of that manual, because they are an "installation of a variable ride height system" and they don't fit the exclusions in that clause (which point to air springs and other pneumatic adjusters). So, as per previous statements, they require engineering cert to be legal on the road. Once you have such cert, provided you do not adjust them outside the height range covered by the cert, you are OK. Without, you have an unroadworthy vehicle.
    • Here E10 is the cheapest fuel. And general advice is to not use it unless you hate your car. From what I remember it clogs up stuff in the fuel system or injectors?  With US/Canada being E10 across the board, does that mean that all fuel there is terrible?
    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW ) Edit: I checked. They aren't. https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-infosheet-light-vehicle-modifications-manual-suspension-and-ride-height.pdf
