Projects Section

Post by Paulm » Mon Feb 13, 2006 5:44 pm

Ever though of having a projects section?

It looks like just about everyone has done some sort of mod to their car. There is so much good info on here that sometimes can take you ages to stumble across
BMW 540i
2018 GTR
F90 M5
X3MC
RS3 Saloon
RS7 FL best car I've owned. No faith in turbo oil screen (turbos failing) or sticking oil scraper ring causing missfires.
F10 M5 LCI still no rear grip lol
S7 black Edition Too big and heavy
S3 8V FL DSG 310ps, road noise is a joke
RS3 8P Rubbish
C7 RS6 Fantastic car but missed playing
GTR R35 800bhp, too extreme, crazy fast though
911 Turbo Remapped. Hated it
F10 M5, awesome but no rear grip
RS6 V10 700BHP crazy
Porsche Cayenne Turbo S 600bhp

Yeh good idea paul. I've found it can take ages to find the right info depending on what your looking for or what search words you use plus some info can be found on completely unrelated topics/threads meaning there is an absolute wealth of info that needs sifted through to find what you are looking for. Anyway to make this more user-friendly would be appreciated.

Or is it me that needs reprogrammed? :biggrin2:

I mean from now on so you could post your own projects. I am up for anything so would easy help if I can. i understand what you mean though if you had to look through thousands of post for project work.

Is it not just a case of opening up a sub forum for projects. ( dont fire me 2 much if it aint that easy) and if people so wished they could sort out their own projects and post them?

What is the point of having a News, issues & suggestions bit I you are going to bin my suggestion without an explanation.

does it really take that much work to add a new bit? I don't know I am only asking.

If you think it is a bad idea then fine. I was only asking :oops:

Why not list some links to relevant projects and then at least it can be considered with examples and content in mind. The :lol: is just the "Yet more stuff to do, and explain why you can't do it"

I'm really sorry if people are disappointed if we can't do everything, but we often feel the same. See here http://www.rs246.com/index.php?name=PNp ... ic&t=51552

Hey Mr. T

On a similar vain - What ever happened to that Tech article I wrote on removing the front bumper and sent in?

Are there any plans to introduce that sort of space? As you know, I'd quite happily drivel on and provide such info.

Now that I'm armed with a digi camera I've loads of pics awaiting text if I've somewhere to put them that would be helpful to others.

Well if you know what your looking for its easy..
that what i thought jr but wasnt as simple as that when I was looking for specific " movit brake shudder" issues. I tried all sorts of search words and combos including and not only the words above. Yes got loadsa feedback, most of it completely irrelevant, which required sifting with unsatisfactory results.

Anyhoodle if it cant be done then so be it. Nature of the beast. Apart from that, fantastic site and was missed if even only for a day! What you have achieved with the forumis way beyond my capabilities or understanding so who the feck am I?
