| | | POST THE BEST FAQ TECH THREADS IN HERE.
I am trying to compile the best tech related faq threads for a faq thread. MRaburn gave me this idea and I told him I would work on it for us.
I need some good gear threads,
Intake plenum threads(probably just link the mod depot one since its the best)
Midpipe,
Catback,
Headers,
Tire/Rim size,
Shifters,
and whatever else gets asked 3or4 times a day.
Whatever you guys think will be the best. I will go through what you post and pick out the most info rich threads and make a new FAQ thread and list them. That way the noobs and even the older members have a tech thread they wont have to do anymore than click a link.
Thanks for your help in advance,
John
btw:try not to get the threads with me answering questions like an ahole....I mean any with me in them.

sounds like a good idea and easier. but wouldn't be better if you just had a faqs page with good truths on gears, exhaust etc.. comparisons and distint sounds on pipes or whatever. some of those posts have 5 pages to them heh. |

How about a forum dedicated to this topic? Each thread could contain how-tos and experiences from those who have performed the work themselves. They could be submitted for approval before being added to the thread. A general idea would be to have a heading for Driveshaft install and a how-to at the beginning. Then if anyone had an easier way or a problem they ran into and how it was solved they could add to it. If it was restricted by submitting the post before allowing it to be included it would clear up alot of the clutter in the thread.

as much as I appreciate everyones help. can we please keep the links mainly from SN. Some of them like the tire calc is ok, but i would like to keep it sn stuff for the most part. I should be able to work on this myself in a couple more weeks, but would like a good starting point to base it all off of. |
