What happen?
So far we're getting questions like.... who is faster, who is better & could I stick a knob on my gear shift to make it go fast threads... f**k me dead!!!
I really miss genuine questions & original ideas brought forward in the past. Something that really challenge the mind {real debate}.
All we're seeing is lame questions after the other. If you're just doing it just to be heard, shut the f**k up & listen!

I've learn allot from this site when I first sign on then any other site because I sat back & listen. New ideas a spawn by linking the dotted line.... we can't do that if we have stupid questions asked all the time! There are guys here I don't want to mention such as stockstandard, data mine, d**k 6, arm79, scabbi & a list of other blokes I can’t remember but I’ll mention anyway,they're most probably sick of it but will still answer the questions out of the kindness of their hearts. lets not forget the laid back moderators as well for not locking the thread!!!!
All I’m saying is these guys are getting dumber because of dumb questions. :lol: I C*** learn from them or waste my time looking in this workshop if it’s going this way.

anyway, thats my rant. I'm drunk & don't give a f**k if I get booted... you can all get f**k either way!!!

How many dreamers can I be civil with before I finally snap and cop a lifetime ban from here for my tirade of abuse at the unlucky dreamer.


I suggest you all by a manual or since you have internet access visit www.howstuffworks.com for some explanation on the basics. I think people have forgotten about that site in modern times.

People talk about how cheap it is to turbo their falcons. There are only 4 guys that have managed to do it for less then 15k on this site and they have done almost all of the fabrication work themselves. In that 15k I mean every nut, bolt, wire and pesky little fitting required for the job.

15k is still relatively a s**t ofmoney for most people under the age of 25 but you newbies seem to be able to blow it like its going out of fashion these days and expect 300rwkW and sub 11 second time cards like its your god given right. Its not. Working for an old time race car mechanic I've realised just how much hard work and development (not to mention time and money) goes into even the most basic looking jobs. Even these so called bolt on kits you kids are lining up to buy are really only bolt on if your happy with the moderate power increase. And don't get me started on the XR6T into XX ford conversions.

Unless you came first at worldskills for auto repair, Auto electrical AND sheetmetal fabricaion then forget about doing it yourself on the cheap if you are under the age of 25. Only 1 guy on this could be considered the exception to that rule and even he hasn't yet gone the XR6T into XX Ford route. Will ebs_4l please take a bow?

Yep, i've had a gutfull too, report post and title the report "Dreamer"!

These ridiculous threads will be moved or locked.

s**t in early days i used to answer almost every thread and help people out, after a cpl of years i grew tired of the same old questions, at that point we had a heap of new guys with knowledge so i left all of that to them.

Back then we had so many tech questions, there were very few wank threads, now we're flooded with them!

I've just moved a cpl of the threads to Off Topic.

Remember this is a technical section, we don't care about the colour of your Mardi Gras frock, save it for Off Topic.
