a new forum

[racebreed]

does anyone else here thing a proper hsv forum would be good or a v8 owners one?

one with proper sections etc?

[madmunky]

Yep this one does kind of suck a little

[Stigmundfreud]

yeah sounds good, how about we get the domain set up something like www.ls1.com.au?

[racebreed]

ive done one before ill get one set up if you want ill sort the hosting etc its dirt cheap

[Stigmundfreud]

sorry no, what you are looking at here is the forum that has pretty much every hsv owner in the uk, that is on the net, registered to it

it would be a waste of time

changed your mind quickly then!

you were up for it a minute ago!

it wouldnt matter if the base was small just be better setup with sections etc making it easier to get around.

the sucess of the SXOC has kept the price of the 200sx up for the last 7years!

[racebreed]

oh and dont get me wrong this is a good forum full of useful information just thought a dedicated V8 owners would be good from V8 powered kitcars to monaros tvr's utes etc

[eliot]

And you wouldn't get people like me wandering by who dont even own a monaro but are interested in them and to add this section to my other marque favorites is easy.

[racebreed]

hey ok guys dont shoot me

just was asking as i found it hard searching through all the old posts looking for information which wasnt there

[Stigmundfreud]

start new threads then

I wasnt really for it, just saying ls1.com.au pretty much covers every thing re the HSV/holden v8 ranges

technical engine info then its those or the gto forums or http://forum.efilive.com

[ringram]

There is already vxronline as well, it has a couple of Holden forums.
To be honest there are enough around if you add in all the US GM LSx forums as well.

[Stigmundfreud]

yeah but in the US sticking an M3 sticker to the boot gives their GTO an extra 100rwhp (USBSHP);)

Pah - putting a 335d sticker on in the UK gives at least 150bhp.

A new forum in the UK has been tried a couple of times since I have been a member here. If you look at the volume of posts this forum always ends up being the most popular. This is underlined by the posts from manufactures and tuners. There are pro's and cons of the layout at the moment. I quite like being able to look at one page and see what people have been talking about today. Haymarket are talking about updating the software but this is still some time off. This is still the only independent Monaro/VXR8 forum in the UK.

[Bonnie and Clyde]

Maybe i'm missing something but i like the one we've got

[madmunky]

Problem with this site is its hard to search for stuff and make sticky posts also I get a lot of pages not being displayed...

[madmunky]

Well im a do'er and website are cheap

http://74.54.144.226/~madmunky/

Just waiting for the nameservers to sync then it will be

http://holden-hsv.com or http://holden-hsv.co.uk

As ive only put this together quickly and ideas would be welcome, come and join up if you interested and hopefully it will make it easyer for everyone.

Just wish the nameservers would hurry up

[Well_Fans]

yep works for me with the nameservers. looks exactly the way 99% of other car forums do and would be a good format to adopt for separating topics out into the appropriate areas. easier to search than this one - even with google assistance the search on here is simply crap and usually gives results from everywhere but the HSV site. I would however still like to keep the option to view all updated threads in a single pane as this site does as others have said it makes it easier to follow whats gone on during the day.

[MadMaxHSV]

The 'Today's Posts' button does that for you if not mistaken

[madmunky]

Sweet, feel free to sign up and start posting ill try add all the features people would want and make it look a little nicer too
