Decided im leaving this place cos the new forums truly do suck, they're slow, look like shit, very hard to read, lack the features of vBulletin, and overall why would a site move to a lower-grade product?

Serious thoughts, opinions?

I must admit there a bit too dark for my liking, makes it harder to read. But give the admins a bit of time, they tend to make changes to improve the forums once they've just upgraded.

So what are you waiting for. :O

you guys need glasses or something, seriously. I run 1400x1050 res and i can read everything just fine. I dont mind it at all, looks more professional imo. what colours does everyone else have? mine is blue with white writing, again, no prob with reading or anything?

I'm sure more features, but etc will be rectified once the mods get a handle on it :O

im with u 100% on the forum looking like crap, i hate the colour scheme, and ye its failry slow even with a fast connection, i cant even view my previous posts and i cant find shit, previous forum board style was sweet, there was no need to change it completely, a big thnx 2 the designer 4 a crappy forum.

Get glasses I say. Im sure once you get use to it, it will be easier to use. Some ppl just cant handle change, maby you should see some one about that... or is it just men??

The people that made this website dont get paied to do it, its their own spare time... and run off donations... so just be happy that this site is here for ur use and that some one has alot of spare time on their hands!

/sarcasim on

oh nooooessss

a change

how dare they, my little utopia is ruined

/sarcasim off

gee they haven't added extra skins yet. white and blue is very easy to read. change the font size if your blind.

so far for me works just fine no lag, got to check out the rest of it yet but no complaints from me so far.

evolution and change are all part of moving forward, previous changes ahve turned out fine so can't see any difference now.

but come on its just a message forum, you come you read, you post, you leave you check every now and then.

My god...

Its gay. :O

Give it time fellaz.. Most gay things end up seeing the light. "No offence intended if you do swing that way"

Personaly: I run an IT forum and it just takes time.

1. They must have a reason for screwing it up like this "they upgrade to a new form of PHPBB etc.."

2. All forums like this one have different selectable skins and given time Im sure they will be up and running on this forum. After they do this you can change it to what eva look you like/they offer.

3. It needs some work me thinks..

4. This is point number 4.

5. My 2c worth.

Gee stritch you need to chill dude.

Its a day old, and migrating a forum of this size wouldnt be an easy task.

Give them some time, im sure they are quite aware of the things that need fixing but I know I would rather have a forum with small text rather than no forum at all.

yes, these forums are now very slow and the colours are too alike

same layout as the TPC forums and I don't care much for the syling ;)

Might be a newer version, but definately a downgrade I think :rolleyes:

EDIT: the time is funked too, I just posted at 2:50pm and its telling me its 6:50am <_<

Yep, no one is forcing them to do it, they do it because they love skylines and meet others who felt the same. Saying this, isnt this why we are all on this forum? So who gives a toss if the forum changes slighty or it runs a bit slower...

I sure dont, there are other much more important things in the world to get all stressed about than the skyline forming having a little change.

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
