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 ???

    • 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?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
