Coomer is currently working on our number one priority, spam management control.
While he is working on this, us mods have put forward a couple of ideas for the site. Now opening it up, to members so if you have any small/simple suggestions for the site/forum and if Coomer has enough time afterwards might look into. -------------------- |

I know other forums accept contributions to keep the site going and keep ads to a minimum and in exchange for a contribution, members get added storage space for pictures or other small things. I'd be up for contributing to keeping things going around here.
This would probably be too much work but I would also like to see a subforum, maybe in Off Topic, for Other Vehicles. A place for project threads or just to showcase the other cars that we all have. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

Really we just need bot control, changing it to where new members first few posts have to be approved would put an end to it. Separate section for other cars is also a great idea, as many people have more than just the Celica or choose to change cars but would like to stay. Having that would give the latter a reason to stay and not feel weird about it.

a way that new threads don't get created by newbs unless they've already searched the forum for the answer. the search button on top right hand of screen isn't the best. google does a better job at this...
we repeat our answers over and over again. i usually never reply anymore cause it just gets tiring. a more advanced chat!! haha This post has been edited by BonzaiCelica: Nov 26, 2013 - 8:33 PM -------------------- Group buy to replicate Narrow E series transaxle parts

DIVIDE BUYING AND SELLING..... wanted and ForSale Indeed, Rusty and Manny should be given admin privileges and then we add a few new mods. Another good idea. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

what tis site need is more turkey carving....
we need more creation, more imagination. Thinking out of the box... (see what i did there?) No really, now its either mz, beams or 3sgte. Sure they are proven reliable swaps. But before that happened several years ago, someone had to venture out. Nobody wants to venture out, and when they do, they get shut down. too many excuses. id like to see creativity here guys, then we can worry about having more. Cutting the firewall? pfff, see this all the time in a 1GC, make tranny tunnel? sure again, check japanesenostalgiccars.com what im trying to say is just because someone said its not supposed to be done, it shouldnt be done? Why? Sure it will cost a dime, but that what tis all about. If someone wants to make a RWD celica, GO for it. I mean, were seeing some AWD being made... different engines, break through, and no repeats. Swapping the good ol 3sgte is awesome dont get me wrong, but i get more satisfaction when i see fabrication and customization.... and sure, break the f/s section in 2... oh and the signature too, make it bigger... -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

Ditto on bigger signatures. In this day and age if a 600x200 100kb signature on each post is enough to bog your computer down, you have other problems to worry about.
Bigger avatars would be nice as well. This post has been edited by Box: Nov 27, 2013 - 8:34 PM -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

DIVIDE BUYING AND SELLING..... wanted and ForSale ^I agree with this completely. Ditto on bigger signatures. In this day and age if a 600x200 100kb signature on each post is enough to bog your computer down, you have other problems to worry about. Bigger avatars would be nice as well. ^I agree with the bigger signatures but not TOO big. I find that when the sigs & avatars get big it takes forever to scroll the page because it lengthens it. We end up with more pictures than responses. -------------------- proud =3sgte SWAPPED= '95 Celica ST owner [calling it the GT2 or half-trac]

I'd like to see a subforum in the Meet forum for regions- IE Northeast, South, Midwest, West coast, etc. but I know that's asking for a lot. On other forums the rules are pretty lax and members can discuss meets, shows, buying/selling locally, and other regional topics. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.
