Merli, what do you feel your role is?

If you are so offended by Squizz, then maybe you should take him up on the offer of the poll.

From an above post...

You weren't chosen to be a moderator because "you were the best person for the job", you were chosen because you posted a lot and spent a lot of time browsing the forums.

surely someone who spends a lot of time browsing, is going to be one of the best people to do the job??

I have nothing positive to say? Did you even READ my first post? That was all aimed at a positive future of SAU pat.gif

My role here is to browse the forums and post when I feel like it.

Unfortunately I was privvy to the rants of a few disgruntled moderators, so I thought I should say something before SAU fell apart. The aim of this thread was to get people to say what was bothering them about SAU and the way it was being run, so hopefully moderators could take an objective view, sit back and see if people have a valid point or not, and then hopefully make inroads to fixing any problems.

someone who spends a lot of time browsing, and is mature enough to make forum decisions, untainted by emotion, bias, grudges and personal vendettas? YES.

Most of the issues that seem to be arising in relation to 'forum issues' are people who have issues with others.

Personally, it's my belief that if you have a problem with someone, you should take it up with them personally instead of posting your feelings on a public forum.

I am another person who feels that there are 'too many cheifs', and by saying this, I am putting my own moderator status on the line.

Some moderators were 'assigned', others were added as moderators because they are responsible people, and can make a judgement call without having to defend themselves.

I don't think that the forum needs so many moderators, as there is a button on every post that allows posts to be reported.

As long as the reported posts are being taken care of, then thats all that matters.

:)

I pretty much agree with everything you just said, except for the "too many cheifs" thing... I'm still undecided about that, as ideally, it shouldn't *really* matter how many moderators there were, as long as they were all mature and sensible. Of course this is but just a dream we call Utopia ;)

Again, the aim of this thread wasn't to start culling moderators. Not from my perspective anyway...

:uh-huh:

i dont think the 'to many chief' thing applies anyway because we all have the same amount of power so really it doesnt matter. atm i cant think of what else to say to make my statement sound better and more understanding because im sick and just woke up

True - we could have 1400 members and 1400 mods provided they all did their job correctly.

People need to start taking constructive feedback as that - not an insult. (me included).

My feedback is that everyone should stop letting their personal feelings get in the way of this forum.

Everything's becoming far too serious here & there's some large egos getting in everyone's way.

This place is turning into SDU........or even worse........PF.

Stop all the moaning & get on with your lives.........IT'S ONLY A FORUM.

I agree. As Donnie says. You guys need to come to atleast one westie cruise and you will see what SAU has been truly about.

Just being with friends with common interests and having a good time like we all have been doing.

NO egos and no attitudes and no grudges.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
