Your Input Needed

[sil]

small suggestion

in the site navigation menu to the left
where it says Motors, maybe it should say site articles,
to clarify that indeed that section contains articles.
or "motors (articles)"

or will there be a seperate "how-to" section in the left menu ?

How-To Articles
- Engines
+ Porting
+ Rebuild
+ Ect...
- Tuning
+ what is tuning <-- hard coded
+ what you need <-- hard coded
+ constants in depth <-- hard coded
+ flags/switches in depth <-- hard coded
+ Tables in depth <-- hard coded page
+ Tuning Articles <--- takes you to its own catagory in the articles section where you can then see the articles (posts) on misc tuning like how to turn off egr, cpp, tuning Pe, tuning Ae, other misc member related posts
- Ect..

then make them expandable, se above +

I agree, min post count for posting rights in other sections sucks. I had to post 5 times in the new member area before I could be manually modified to post in the thread I wanted (regarding head porting and cnc porting).

We also won't close repeat threads because new discussions can lead to new information or ideas. I do think we need a master discussion for some topics.

Got another suggestion. Use the links section. I can create new sections but I need to know they should be. Files, pictures, videos, whatever...we can host it.

well the site seems to be run by like minded people and most of what you guys usually come up with is what i would want to see.

so keep up the good work :thumbsup:

Take away the forum and this site is kinda sad to be honest.

It's a lot of work to capture the info on a forum but it does help if it can be done and organized into good data. Saves on searches and topics coming back up.

There is some info on spark plugs I was digging into today. Maybe add that to the site? Not sure if I am dead on but I feel pretty confident with it.

Feel free to create an article on spark plugs...

And, and it would probably go here: http://60degreev6.com/forumdisplay.php?f=86

I wrote my articles as I was researching parts. I figure that if you are on the topic already, why not update/create an article. Everyone can do this. Newbies have no problem using that system when they should be on the forum.

[IsaacHayes]

Ok, I guess my info is accurate? I'll put a disclaimer :P It's speculation on my part but it makes sense to me.

EDIT: I'll make some more articles later eventually on things I've compiled and learned and know work.

Believe me, I've posted plenty of things that have been proven wrong. I'm sure there are still a few things in articles that still aren't 100% right. But, the site won't grow without people creating articles and others adding to them and/or correcting them.

[IsaacHayes]

Ok I posted it said it had to be moderator approved so check it out I think it's pretty good info about the topic.

Looks good to me. APPROVED.

Ok, and im adding a few bits of info to it since I didn't know about heat ranges. Just linked to the NGK site.

Tuning : I agree, it would be great to put together something for people to be able to reference when they go about tuning. I won't be able to help with this, as I have no experience. And I'm sure Ben won't want to divulge too much info since he sells chips. And I bet I can convince at least 1 of the several people on here to put together a somewhat entry-level to intermediate-level write-up on tuning OBD2. Andy (sprucegagt) comes to mind...

Looks like I have some work to do. I'll see what I can put together for a OBDII tuning guide. It's probably going to be a modified version of the old DHP tuning guide. Alot of the information in it was pulled together from various sites on the web. So I hope it won't ruffle too many people at DHP.

[IsaacHayes]

I just did a reply Ben. Has to do with some info you replied and also on pricing. Should help a person make a decision.

[IsaacHayes]

Uhm, where do you get to the articles from the main front page??? I'm drawing a blank here.
