Oooops said too much :) lol

You did? I think he has no recollection so you're gonna have to go through it again.... :lol:

I think a few people need to take a chill pill.....

BrendanF: What is your solution to this problem? You don't seem to want the endless joke posts of Team Westside in the NSW forum, yet you don't want a dedicated Team Westside forum. How can we get around this?

You also need to realise that the whole Westside thing has nothing to do with geography, it's a group of friends that started in the west & has now spread all over Sydney. It is far from exclusive. The only criteria for joining is that you just wanna have a good time & forget about all the politics that are happening on this board nowadays......

Cereal et al,

I am happy to re-iterate myself once more, so in good faith and without prejudice I will declare my opinion (NOTE: ONLY MY OPINION again, NOTE : not having a go any any person here)

At no point have I ever (EVER EVER) said that there was a problem with the jokes, gay comments and the like in the NSW section. I have repeatedly stated that I enjoy the TW antics. Thus, And yes, it is unfortunate that I haven't been to a TW meet yet so you guys could get to know me a little better. It's not that I don't go to any meets BTW, I have met heaps of nice people at track days, cruzes, dyno days and the likes. (Don't you guys look in the other sections on the forums ?? I have posted heaps of dialog and photos from these times) I will also share with you my understanding (note : understanding and NOT inititiated by me) that the mods felt that the gay/jokes/comments/etc in the NSW were not offensive enough to FORCE TW to initiate the so called private forum. In fact, I think, the majority of folks (like myself) enjoy the TW antics. As you all know I am a mod of the NSW section - Is there ANY incident of my moderation that offended or controlled the TW posts ?? If there is I apologise and would welcome a reference to the offense.

I really find it sad, time consuming and totally unforefilling to have to post these kinds of replys.

My ONLY issue is with any, group or sub group of SAU (except mods, cause u need them) having the privilage to have a private section to them selves on the forums. And I really don't give a toss what ppl are posting in these sections.

There are two solutions to this problem:

1) Give NSW, VIC, WA, ACT, SA, TAS, NT, and all the other sub groups below these , their own private section so they can all be gay/offensive/take the piss etc out our own respective group of friends and buddies..

OR

2) Remove the TW private forum and make it public (with disclaimer if you like)

NOTE TO ALL - I don't say remove the TW section, just make it public, with disclaimer.

Then all groups, states, and sub groups are even and equal. No bitching and quarelling. No secrets to SAU members...

There you go two solutions - anyone got another one that is WIN-WIN ???

I am really really sad , sorry and bemused why this issue has come to the extent of me posting this reply......

Final note to all : If you think I am being un-fair , send a note to Prank, Dino, Minh or any other SAU mods or execs. Or post a poll. What ever comes out of it , that's OK, for I know for myself that I am being fair and just to all SAU members.

Peace, Love and Skylines everyone . . . . . . . .

I agree with cereal's post...

Team Westside is (from what i read on here) simply a bunch of mates sharing good times and stories, jokes etc.

How anyone could be offended by thier material is something i find confusing... There is alot of BS happening in seemingly every other section of the forums... The NSW stuff posted by team westside is always: in good humour, fun, informative and friendly, there is no prejudice/bias or ill feeling... this is not the case with alot of threads outside NSW/ Team Westside...

Thats why i post and read in the NSW threads these days... Because with Team Westside and alot of you NSW guys it aint about ego, where your from, looking big or who has the most posts... Its about the Cars.... Its about having fun....

Thats why I joined here and i respect that more than anything....

Nice one Ryan - please stay asleep !!

Cereal - if there is no Geography involved then why is it Team Westside and not SAU ???

And, if you wanted it left to the mods, why did you ask me to come up with a solution ?? And I gave you two solutions....

Smooth - I think you agreeing with me re TW is fun !! Let's share it with everyone !! Not keep it private.

FFS - if I am alone here, then I QUIT ! ( good one Ryan & TW - you won fellas !!)

It's not my place to argue this issue, so I'm gonna accept whatever decision is made by the moderators.

I will make one last comment though:

You will reach an agreement alot sooner if you stop changing your stance on the issues at hand.

Just one question, and I apologise if I missed this whilst I was in Japan, but I don't understand the reasoning behind making it hidden in the first place?

If people complained about TW thread overtaking the NSW forums (ROFL!), and a seperate forum was made to accomodate them, why make it hidden?

Personally I think TW is part of NSW, and shouldn't be segregated like it is now. I enjoyed reading the funny TW threads.

Thanks Smoothline......

You get the point. Why can't everyone else?

Then why the need to make it Private ???

    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
    • and it ends up being already priced in as though you're just on 91RON without any ethanol. Car will lose a bit of economy as the short and long term fuel trims bring down the AFR back to stoich or whatever it is for cruise/idle for the engine.
