Wouldn't it be nice if you were posting in this area and were having problems with your car. 10 or 20 people reply to your problem. Some are conflicting, some make sense and some don't. Who do you know to believe?

Well the answer is...you don't.

What if you could make it so that anyone who is in the mechanical, autoelectrical, automotive body repairs industry or any other relevant industry had a special type of signature or something so that the person with the problem might be able to sort out the crap thinkers from the general knowers. Of course, it would not mean that people who weren't in the guild didn't know what they are talking about, but at least when someone who is in the related industry replies, there would be a little more peace of mind.

What do you think?

P.S. Would also prevent arguments between two mechanics as they would know that the other person might know what they are talking about. (Not a crack at you either Cubes)

:D

If that worry's the business they should have a disclaimer in their sig anyhow.

I don't think we are talking businesses here.

More so the individual's credentials.

yeah, not business names. Just that the person is in the trade. You could also have a list of trade people where if someone had a specific question, and the trady had selected to allow it (via option box or something), that person could just PM a question directly to the appropriate person.

I know I would be involved.

Always great to help people out.

great idea... I would love to be able to direct questions at person who I knew to have experience in a particular area... I mean after all my mechanic is only a phone call away but a lot of the time I would like informed second opinions, ideas and other options etc...

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
