hay james

i think the new looks is ok but very hard to read and understand, too many dark shades used in the colours but thats just my thoughts.

and also when loged in it does not remember you if you come back to the site 5 mins later like it used to do ( and yes i clicked the remember me button)

Wow - the post cout is back!

Look at James - he's such a post whore.

PS - I think this new layout is GHEY. But thats just me.

Also - I know the members section still exists somewhere but we all have to wait to up uploaded into the new database.

You can't delete old posts, that's annoying.. Unlike the rest of you whores I like to keep my post count small & recent :O I like deleting old posts from the spotted thread also, so its harder for any random person to keep track of my usual whereabouts etc etc but still be able to identity people I pass..

Tiny text is slowly sending me blind.. and I'll second that whinge, I want my 180 back, stuff this rb25 crap! :O

I was happy with the old forums.. why the change?

I was happy with the old forums.. why the change?

they were changed as they were numerous back end problems with the old versions of phbb and the developers/support werent able to help any more, or so i read in the feedback section anwyay. the site is a bit average. almost turns me off reading them all the time now cos they are much more unfriendly and a lot of the stuff isnt obvious. i cant work out new threads and which ones have new posts etc

im sure they will work it all out, just have to wait i guess. also no quick post is poo so i just have to reply to the last post in the thread in the meantime

Yeah the text is way way way too small.

And i think we need the post preview thing back (as stated above)..

This was what differentiated us from those nissan silvia louts! It saves heaps of time otherwise spent trawling through endless posts of people wanting rad BOV sounds and asking the difference between a skyline and a silvia etc etc. Especially if you are still on dialup.

there are a few cool features, like new PM's being displayed at the top of the page when you refresh while browsing ;)

however...

Where the hell did the TRADER RATINGS Go!??!!? And the subscribed thread listwent, but i'm hoping that it just hasn't been restored yet.

And i agree it's a lot harder to read than before. And not just the font size, but the layout too. I started the day trying to be optimistic, but nope i don't like it. Also PM space was chopped from 200 to 100 :rolleyes: bugger, so i did a nice big cleanout of crap i'd had sitting there for a while.

beh oh well...

well I liked it at first because often a change is refreshing.. but now its just bloody annoying me.. this crazy colour scheme and the text size.. my eyes are falling out of their sockets.. and changing the display on IE is a no no because it effects what you look at when your not on SAU as well.. bitch bitch bitch.. still annoyed about the quick reply thing.. and as someone said the thread preview I like that....

But on a good note.. I like the way when you are going through threads you can 'jump to page' so you just chuck in the page number you want and it's there.. no pressing buttons for ages and ages....

    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
    • street use or race track, what hose size and why? what factors change with the hose size options ?   see most comon is an10. when you see most oem external coolers are closer to an12? does high volume oil pump like nitto need an12 or 10 be just fine
