The v8 section is GAME-ON

Damn guys... 9 pages of threads moved over. Someone's been busy. A big thank you to the moderators. I'm actually excited about the extra visibility into our little world.

Question: I'd like to cross post my build thread over here... I know that's helped a lot of folks through the years. It seems like that would be an aid to anyone doing a v8 swap.

The problem, and the only reason I haven't done an Rx7club build thread to date, is that I want the ability to edit my posts after the fact. Without it, my ability to add new hot links to the first post goes out the window. Also even though I've been doing this since 2005, I'm still learning things as I go and I want to be able to update posts.

If you think I'm worthy I might suggest this would be a decent additional up top so K-Doe (aka Mr. Humility) wouldn't be the only sticky.

Is there any way to give user's moderator rights for a particular thread?

Again, thanks for doing this... GAME ON indeed.

I can't speak to giving users privileges over their thread, but I can certainly can apply changes for you if you want.

I would not mind having some version of my build thread here or the 044 pump installs but I really dont want to deal with a flame war that could happen.

i doubt you will have the strict rotorheads pissing on your threads if you start banning them from this subforum. it was allowed everywhere else previously but that's not the case anymore

rotaries have broken plenty of spirits, just returning the favor!

granted the next swap i have coming is going to be a 2JZ into an FC, so no place for the peeny weeny 6 cylinder swaps.. but to keep the rotards happy i also have a Morris minor owner interested in a 13B swap.

The rest of the mods here could take a lesson or 35 from Blake on being a mod.

so wait...you mean to tell me that people can have weight, horsepower, torque and reliability at the same time? Bull ****! thats like being able to be drunk, high, shooting guns, driving recklessly and still waking up in your own bed the next day with your car safe in the garage.

I officially call shenanigans, SHENANIGANS!!!!!!

I actually had a guy yelling at me at a car show 'for what i did to the car'. I told him I just made it better and he stormed off while about 6 people talk to me about it just laughed.


The rotard didn't even own a car.
