What would YOU like to see?

[PyR0NiAk]

For those of you who didn't notice, I was recently upgraded to moderator status. I'll be stepping up to take Bart's (Hijacker) place when he ships off for basic. I've done a little cleaning up in the stickies area, and now I want to know what you guys would like to see. Maybe something added? Maybe something removed? Let me know. I can't guarantee I can do everything, but I can guarantee that I will devote a lot of my time to try and accomplish everything I can to make the SR (RWD) section of NICO as useful as I can.

[PyR0NiAk]

NOONE has any suggestions?

[zach-Ka]

So far so good. I like that you are making some info easier to find. And congrats on becoming a mod!

I'm trying... It took forever to redo all of the links in the FAQ seeing as how when editing someone else's posts it deletes their links... I got smart and saved it all in a Wordpad document, though. I'm still waiting on permissions to write articles and some of the posts are going to be switched over to articles. This'll make them not only available through the links in the FAQ but also in the tech pages on 240sxtech.com. That is if I'm understanding everything correctly. If there is any info at all you'd like to see in the FAQ, feel free to PM me and I'll be all over trying to find the answers and getting it added. As far as your friend's J4 ecu. It's a pain to find anything for those things. I couldn't find the ecu pinouts for them, either.

[zach-Ka]

I can only imagine how frustrating that all is. Thats crazy Im glad I have a red top.

[PyR0NiAk]

Eh, I have a blacktop... Just not a Type X

[zach-Ka]

O! So thats the difference....lol

[PyR0NiAk]

Look what I found

FYI: Type X (J4 ECU) is only from 97-98

[zach-Ka]

O heck yeah man. That very well may assist me in helping my friend get his car started...

I would like to see my car completely assembled and my Power FC that was ordered from NenGun back in beginning of April

But as far as the site goes how about adding a traders rating to the control panel. My350z and Zilvia have this feature. Would be easier to see if a user is legit instead of having to take their word for it. Isnt there a section on here that posts usernames who have scammed people / sent bad items?

[PyR0NiAk]

I can't control features, xiaphin. Sorry. I was referring more to what kind of information would people like to have readily available.

[Second Shadow]

I want hijackers rebuild thread to be a sticky.

[PyR0NiAk]

I'm pretty sure positron's covers everything..


To give you guys an idea of what I mean by new info.
So far, I've added a fault code listing as well as ECU pinouts..

Changes to the classifieds system are being looked into. The priority right now is to get everything finally converted over/fixed from the old forum software and that will take a bit of time to get "the list" completed. Afterward we will address classifieds and buying/selling along with other projects. I don't have a time frame though.

Yep, was already in there. Anything else?

Unfortunately, the SR section doesn't get more than like 3 new threads a day. I would love to see it get 7-10. Ideas to improve traffic flow would be nice too.

Yeah I know yall got your hands full on the changeover. No rush on my suggestion I just know how helpful it would be. Nice work on the changeover by the way.

"Understanding turbo's" thread.

[PyR0NiAk]

Pretty sure WD has one of those in the KA-T section. I'll do some looking for you.

[CRyan]

Thank you sir.

My co-worker stated, "Big a** t*tties! Would be great."

[PyR0NiAk]

LOL Type NSFW in the search bar.. You'll find plenty.

CRyan, check the last link in the FAQ now. Plenty of reading about turbochargers for you.

"Understanding turbo's" thread.

http://www.amazon.com/Maximum-Boost-Tur ... 716&sr=8-1

[PyR0NiAk]

I already added a link to the howstuffworks one in the FAQ.

[S14Zilvia]

I already added a link to the howstuffworks one in the FAQ.

While that's free, which is nice, the book goes far more in depth for those looking to build a custom setup. How to read compressor maps, how to match sizing, etc. If I was going to build my own setup, I'd spend the $20 to pick up a used copy and read it cover to cover. There is another one out there that usually gets mentioned but I've only read Maximum Boost.

If you're only going to do upgrades that other people have done on an SR20, the howstuffworks is plenty of info I suppose.

[PyR0NiAk]

The SR is popular enough now, that there aren't many one-off setups left. Either way, nice contribution.

You're right, and I'm not trying to give you a hard time. I like to see people go deeper though because the one-off setups are the ones that push the envelope. A few years ago, no one knew what a disco potato was. Then someone tried it.

If I actually follow through and buy an SR soon, I'm sure I'll have plenty to add to the "what I'd like to see" thread

[PyR0NiAk]

GOOD!

[CRyan]

I've always heard these different MAF's being used, like the SOHC, the Z32, I believe I've even heard the Ford Cobra's? Anyway, it'd be nice to have a write up on wiring these up, the benefits from each, etc. . .Just a thought though, honestly.

and "NSFW" to the search bar just gives me the main page for NICO, which I guess makes sense. I never get anything done when I remember my password at work.

[KYZAAC]

i would like to see a maf sticky as well, just with all the basic info and whatnot, i know its on here somewhere but i cant find it.
another thing i would like to see is a Build Thread Section. i know its not priority but it would be nice. theres so many good builds on here. im always losing track of build thread names then can't find them when i go back to get info.

[Hijacker]

We try to keep stickies limited. However, the FAQ has a list of useful threads in it. We can add some of those threads to the list there.

As for a build section, I believe we've talked about it in the past, but it would pull too much traffic from the main forums.
