as in paid members?

you cant have it only for "club" members as not every state has a club, and then there is all the international people blah blah.

Also to note... what would traders be advertising too, they pay good money for the volumes of people.

Cutting to paid members in total (maybe) about 400 people?

not good from 20+ tho

it's not a bad idea....quite a few forums have it so guests can't read them.

stops people being able to read about cruises, or other things without being logged in..

the trouble is you get a lot of people who browse first, and then sign up, and if you take that away you'd probably get less members joining.

but if u really wanted to read the info you would join?

meh.. just an idea :)

and maybe to stop scammers make it so that you need to be a member for 3months or certain number of posts in order to view the For Sale threads?

A few forums have this too such as OCAU :P

it has been covered many-a-time before mate

use the search button is your so inclined to find out more info

The whole 3-months/min post count etc etc.

Much debated with the same emphasis in the end that...

it wont stop dodgy traders regardless

I agree, i have only been a member for a handful of months with very minimal posts. I would still want to have the privilege of being able to buy and sell an item when i want/need too, hence putting the 3months/number of posts out the window effectively.

And if people don't want others knowing about a cruise "Police" then why post in a public forum? Call a few of your mates that you have met on one of the public cruises and i'm sure they will be more than willing to go for a nice drive with you.

Alternatively there could be a section for paying members which is exclusive and can't be seen by any other pubilc or non paying members. Who knows this could already be in place as i have not got a paid membership yet (still waiting for my car)

my 2c :D

Yup each state that has an official chapter (NSW, VIC, QLD, WA) has a members only section for their paid members. I think the NSW and VIC ones have been around for a couple of years now.

SAU dosen't condone illegal activities (too-gay runs in the hills, street drags, stealing etc) so there's nothing to hide from authorities either. If it can't be discussed in public, then it shouldn't be discussed on SAU.

If you forced people to sign up all it would result in is less people using the forum as a resource, and more idle users who don't actually post, all they do is sign up and lurk.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
