Hi.

I have sent a pm to prank and r31nismoid and have had no reply for a while now.

What I would like to be able to do is edit my phone number out of old for sale posts.

I'm sick of getting contacted way after items are sold, even when I have updated them as sold.

I sort of understand why we aren't allowed to edit posts, but would like it if either a mod could delete my number from all posts or give me temporary edit rights so I can do it.

Cheers

Ben

Just to help you out Ben I would recommend in future that any For Sale threads you create, you only send your number privately to the interested buyer.

What is that saying? "what you post on the net stays on the net"

I get the concern with scammers, but seriously.... I've sold heaps of stuff. Heaps of people have come to my house to buy it. I've posted things worth over 1000.

I have clearly made a lot of posts.

It would be a person way more dedicated than me to spend over a year helping the community, selling a lot of stuff then to just try to scam people. Especially considering the fact I have never hidden my number, or asked people to meet me away from home etc.

It's just as time has gone on I have found having my number on the net is annoying to me.

I understand my request means work for someone, but realistically I'm still entitled to ask.

Anyway, its actually a part of the rules of the for sale section to post a phone number, and I appreciate that. What I don't understand is why it has to stay there after the item is sold.

Many other forums delete or completely edit threads once the item is sold. This forum has decided for some reason to leave the thread intact, I presume to get more google hits. That's cool. But why leave the number there?

Anyway, hopefully it's easy to edit them for me, or give me temporary editing rights.

Cheers

Not trying to spark an argument.

I just double checked the "SA Section - For Sale" thread and I did not see anything mentioned about it being compulsory to post your phone number?

Anyway despite the above I hope for your sake you can get your number removed....

Its in the main for sale section rules, number 8, can't say I've read the SA sections rules. They also say must include a valid email address, which is just silly. Perhaps its time to update them.

Its not like the rules are really enforced though....

Its not a huge issue at the end of the day.

Perhaps if a mod could explain why we can't edit posts after a certain time?

Cheers

Ben

Sorry - Missed PM's, i dont set them to notify me (i only check them once a week/fortnight).

If you use the "report post" button, then everyone in the team should see it (ie heaps of us), rather than just a single private message. That way anyone can action it when they get a few spare mins in their day.

I'll sort it out later today for you.

RE: Post editing - to stop scammers who would edit entire posts at once after ripping someone off so there was no way of tracking them or what the goods were. It cannot be enabled for a 'single instance' or anyting, it's a global change.

Thanks for clearing that up.

How hard would it be to do a word filter style replace of my phone number? Replace with pm for number or something similar?

Cheers

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
