It seems to have happened over the past couple of days Glyn when most regulars are not posting > but the spammers are.

On a PC or a tablet, the links they're using are of course easy to side-step; but on a mobile....gr-r-r

I'm not sure of the source (maybe other admins are), but we are all busy cleaning them up. Looks like someone's already done the cleanup this morning.

It's basically like a war out there....the forums let us do certain things to block spammers, and the spammers keep finding ways to get around them. These days I guess they are doing the registrations manually because the registration controls are pretty good. There are further controls we can implement but they start to affect real users so there is a balance to be struck.

Please keep reporting when you see them so nothing gets missed.

Terry....school holidays!

where do they lead?

im not about to go clicking links but what are they pushing? just virus pages or pay by click adverts?

also thanks to the admin for keeping the floods of shit at bay.

    • My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.
    • Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway  
    • Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
    • I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.    
    • Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>
