I know there was a poll about this,

But is there any plans for an iPhone app at all??

It's frustrating coz it doesn't let you reply on the iPhone through Safari, and not to mention the text is really small so you have to zoom in heaps!

I checked a PM that I got the other day on my iPhone and coz the delete button is next to the reply I accidentally pressed delete, then I remembered it doesn't let you reply anyway haha. Unlucky.

Anyway, just wondering...

I am new here and did not trawl through all the pages of the thread. I have a suggestion that Skylines Aus Forum joins up with Tapatalk. I use it on my HTC android phone and I am sure my mates use if on their iPhones too. It makes viewing the forums a breeze and loads up relly fast on 3G too.

I thouroghly reccomend it!

Might have already been mentioned, but in the coles card competition I mentioned the site really needs to improve the FAQ(s).

I just went to click on three very interesting threads, only to see nismoid close them all and say go search. I wouldn't have been annoyed so much had search actually worked to give me the answer on the first page, but it really didn't, and reading through multiple 50+ page threads to find where the hell your search matched a term... is just annoying.

TBH 15-20 of the most 'knowledgeable' guys should compile a real QnA FAQ so people can find what they are after without being slapped with "GO SEARCH FOR IT".

And they were all found within 30 seconds of using the search - in terms of the answers.

Which one do you want to know more about?

All users PM'd me as the lock message said, was just a simple case of them not using the best search parameters.

Can't have a FAQ for every single option/choice known to man :)

No, most definitely not. Largest "bolt In" Rb26 Twin Turbos for example. Not in the first 3 pages is there a directly/similarly named thread, so even though the answer kindof lies in some of the thread results.... Anyway, pretty sure a FAQ would answer most of those type questions, though it would take time and effort I know.

Again it just comes down to you not using the search correctly.

I typed in "largest lowmount"

2nd result was this thread:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/312245-largest-set-of-factory-located-twins-on-rb26-r32/

:thumbsup:

Can't get any easier than that mate. Sorry to say but you simply did not use the search well enough, and that was the first search i tried.

Got another example?

Eh to be fair that doesn't contain "bolt-on" and a noob might not know bolt-on = lowmount (well doesn't really, but pretty close). I do agree search terms come into it, hence the FAQ where you can simply push ctrl + f and find every reference of turbo etc ;)

In forsale section under car parts, subs forums like Wheels, Engine Parts, Interior...

something like that make it easier for people to find what they are looking for instead of searching through endless pages

just an idea :)

just curious, on the old forum, did you get notified when you got a warning? i had 1 warning on the old forum and i am sure that i got a message when it happened saying what i had done wrong, but since we have been on the new 3.0 forum i've gotten 2 warnings and only know the reason behind 1 of them, and that was only because it was mentioned in the thread i got it in that many of us got a warning, but i have no idea why i got the other 1, or even when.

my point is, wouldn't it be a good idea to be notified when a warning is given so that we know what we did wrong and not to do it again? how else will people know when they have broken the rules? i certainly don't pay much attention to my warning level, and i'm sure many others don't (since some don't even know there is a warning level), so you could have people suddenly getting told they are getting a holiday for having too many warnings yet they don't even know that they have a warning. it would be like getting a letter in the mail saying you have lost your licence but having never been sent a fine for anything. it really makes the term "warning level" rather innaccurate. maybe it should be renamed "marks against your permanent record".

Hey guys firstly i would like to say what a fantastic website this is! Extremely helpful to me!

I was thinking the other day that in the for sale section for private parts or for all parts/cars etc.. being sold that there should be a field when listing a new thread about what state that member is in so that it makes it a lot easier and quicker for the person looking for parts. also would be good if that showed up next to the topic so that you didnt have to click in to find it out. would save a LOT of time for people :)

Just an idea :)

hi guys i searched for this in this topic but got 0 results so I thought id be first to say it...maybe intro of a like/dislike button (such as used on yt fb etc..) on actual thread/topic of actual posts put up by people on the thread....i thought it would be useful and handy in situation where person AA has many likes to the OP's question (would be sort of a quick reference for people who aren't bothered looking at the whole thread or maybe just need to see if the topic they check out is on the right track or whatever. or simply just as a like and/or dislike that works on yt and fb etc...

    • Took a little trip  went to nismo hoping the get my fuel tank hoses and unfortunately they told me they didn’t have stock luckily I was able to go to a Nissan parts store and they were able to order them in for me  then can home and cleaned the tank with some degreaser and fitted the new hoses before putting it back in the car 
    • 100% I’ll hack into the 33. Strap a turbo onto the RB25DE and/or put the 25 head on a 30 block. 33 passed in cos the reserve was too high. I’ll try lowballing it again and negotiate. Aim is to have it landed and on the road for under 15k, then spend the same amount on top in mods.
    • It's generally best practise to run 1x run without VCT enabled, then 1x run enabled till redline. Overlay the two torque graphs and you'll find the desired RPM to turn off VCT. Sometimes, it might be even worthwhile turning off VCT earlier control torque/cylinder pressure and using VCT purely to spool the turbo.
    • They sell them in Malaysia for about $4
    • First time I ever have issues with Amazon, but my wife often tells me to keep an eye out for fakes. It finally got me. I wrapped up the conversation with Gates. The gentlemen I was talking to seemed to hate his job but the response time on their technical support is outstanding. He stated that the hose is marked with some variation of "SAE J30R10" but that if you only purchase a 1 foot length like I did, it is possible to get a cut between markings and have a blank hose. To no ones surprise, he stated the swelling and "gummyness" isn't normal and to replace/buy from somewhere else (He mentioned NAPA). I'll toss a small end of the new one in gas for a few days before pulling the hanger out again, just to be safe.  Hose should arrive Monday. For those running multiple pump in tank hangers, you know the joys of getting them out and back in. I'm surprised I haven't destroyed my level float yet.  Lastly once I wrap all of this up, I'm planning on hitting the dyno again in 2 weeks while I'm on vacation. I realized recently that my VCT is set to turn off at 5000RPM. I'm surprised it wasn't increased while I was on the dyno last. I'm expecting I can increase it to ~6500RPM, if not more. Should hopefully get another 15-20kw out of it. I also want him to revisit my knock thresholds. I'm occasionally getting false knock around 3000rpm.
