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

To keep the people who complained out of the forum. If their fragile minds can't handle the smutty humour then they shouldn't be subject to such childish jokes and gutter language.....

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

Then you should be given access (Not that you haven't somehow managed to take it anyway....) to the forum.

I don't have access to it. I was told about it by a mate. :lol:

George, you are right dude - However :

PLEASE PM these people to me or one of the mods.

I DON"T KNOW OF ANY ........ ! ! ! ! ! ! !

And if I don't know - I can't do anything about it !!

You don't get it. Once again I'll repeat myself. You want to make it public and put a disclaimer. OK. I have no doubt it'll turn out like the wasteland. People will still whinge DESPITE the disclaimer, and of course you'll crack down and not allow stuff. Why? Because you want it to be a "family safe" website. Well, if this is the case, then you'd have to do the same thing to the westside forum you did to the wasteland then. Wasteland has a disclaimer doesn't it? Yet you insist no hot chick threads etc, cause you want "family safe". Double stanards galore. Yeah, nice work :)

Exactly my point SmoothLine. Exactly my point. You just add people in as they agree not to whinge, done and done. Then all someone has to do is say "I'd like access to the westside forum please, i enjoy reading their threads" and then you add them in. Takes 30 seconds to do.

How is that supposed to happen when people don't know about the hidden forum?

In any case, lemme in :)

Since I don't have access yet, I will post here :

Being a mod of the NSW section, I have found none of the private TW threads offensive at all. In fact I have found most of them to be to be quite funny.

I do take offence to be being precluded from the TW section. And the narrow mindedness of certain ppl from TW.

But I think Minh is a funny bastard !!! :)

That is all .

that's easier said than done ryan. see what you didn't think of when you went ahead and created this section without asking was the implications. you can't create just this one secret forum. if this stays then squizz wants a garage spank section. there'll be numerous other factions asking for one and we'll have crap everywhere. but if that's what everyone wants then it will be done. it is everyones forum after all!

Merli: People who read it previously would obviously know about it by now, There's been multiple threads mentioning it, everybody that cruises now knows about it, you found out from your friend, etc.. you get what i mean. Anybody who read it anyway will or probrably has already heard about it, so as people think "hey! i liked reading that! i want access!" they can go and ask to be added, those who didn't read it, didn't care, don't have to and won't take any notice...

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
