It seems recently the tutorial section was opened up for just general posting, I guess to stop as much delay getting stuff in there. But I've noticed lately, there is a lot of rubbish in there, and a lot of just general questions... e.g. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=76511

I remember when it was just properly written tutorials only, and what you saw was all good information. Now its filled with a lot of crap, and you have to wade through it - therefore making the section not as good as it should be.

Can we go back to some tighter moderation in there??

I bit off topic but staying with the Tutorials area.

Can we get some protection on the pictures that a worthy of keeping?

Some tuts that had pics, now don't

I don't know if it was links to personal server sites or if the ones on the Skylines Server have a timeout/delete. If the latter, could that be removed on that section only?

ok as a mod in that area i wholeheartedly agree

i try to get in there and move a whole shitload of crap posts about once or twice a week but the problem remains, people are not reading my sticky asking not to post questions/crap

the only way that it will go back to normal is if a higher power than me re-instates a moderation on ALL new threads dissallowing them to be started until a moderator approves it

i dont know why that feature went away but thats the cause of all our probs

Cheers

OK I can change the mode back for that forum, and am happy to..

Like Jimbo I'm a mod in there but I just don't have the time to keep up with moderating it properly. If there are another person or 2 willing to help out I can put moderating back on and have the mods look after it

      Rusty roof repair

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Hot tip, stop picking at shit. Live in bliss instead   From my recent experience in rust repairs, white it may seem to not go much further back, you'll still need to cut back a bit further.  From what I can see there, the outer skin, and the inner is rusted too. From what I can see you've got the inner one which is all structural, and window likely affixes too.   If tag Murray Calavera here, but my phone won't let me tag him, he'd probably be able to give the best advise.   I do know, welding roof panels is a right pain in the bollocks! Very heavy to heat distort the roof and warp it all.

      Some of the filler.   Also if I look under the top flap of metal it starts looking good quite close to the edge. I get the feeling it doesn't go much further.

      Rusty roof repair

      So, I finally started digging at the bit of my roof that was cracking and bulging a bit. Well, it was just thick filler that was covering some pretty bad rust. I didn't find the edges, I was too bummed to keep going.  There are a few holes as you can see. There was just so much filler but looks like no attempt under the filler to prime or use rust converter, just slapped filler on exposed rust.  Anyway, I'm going to take the windshield out and find the edges. I'd love to fix this myself as I'm pretty sure it'll be expensive to get done properly. I was thinking I could just get a cut piece from another E39 and just weld it in place as it would be the right size and shape.  Thoughts?

      This is the territory of the "Stage 1/2/3 Golf GTI/R" or otherwise off the shelf tune with (relative to before) minor mods. It's easier now. Downpipe and Tune and boom, big increases. Stage 1 OEM+ is where it's at. This is where the niche evolved into and it's really easy to see why. It's rare to even NEED to consider changing turbos or going to aftermarket ECU's or building bottom ends for more power. Stage 1-2-3 will get you a LONG WAY. Civic Type R turbo GR Yaris/Corolla Anything with B58 (MKV Supra/x40i) Anything BMW in General Anything Audi in General Any turbo AMG RenaultSport Turbo offerings Korean Elantra N/I30N Ecoboost Mustangs Focus RS? List goes on. I would argue in the future it won't even need to go on... M3P is pretty rapid out of the box...

      There is a way, but it's not with the same cars. You need to find the same vintage of car, that we had. Realistically, that was an affordable car with aftermarket parts around. So what people need to find is a car that had a decent base in its day, and can be modified. They're looking for a car year make of 2010 to 2015 really... Aus could have done it if Holden didn't fold as V8 commodores were cheap, and if Ford didn't get expensive thanks to COVID, then you could cheaply play with FG Barras. Realistically, those are just a bit heavier, four door skylines. I'm sure the US and UK have similar cars they could find.
