So what's the criteria for PINNED members rides? It seems that threads get pinned left, right and centre these days.

Can some one maybe clean them up or something so it gives other members chances to have their threads veiwable?

Yeah, there are quite a lot of pinned threads. If anything, it could probably be cut to half size, but then there will probably be discussion over who deserves to be pinned and whatnot.

i agree there are to many pinned threads, but like djkor said how do you decide who should be up there and who should not?

i think a good start would be to take down the rides that havnt had a post in them for 1 or 2 years and cars that have been sold or the members have moved on.

what im trying to say is there should realy be a time bracket of how long your ride stays up there, so we can keep things fresh, the exception being cars like xooms that have been thrully moded and we can learn from.

and does M M really need 4 pinned members threads?

flame away.........

Why not sub the members ride forum section???

Have one forum for Silver Membership and another for everyone else...

Now there is some really smart thinking. Keeps the guys with Silver Membership their own section where their threads wont be pushed away by others, and give the regular members a chance to have their thread easily seen.

Can we still access and view Silver Members threads?

what im trying to say is there should realy be a time bracket of how long your ride stays up there, so we can keep things fresh, the exception being cars like xooms that have been thrully moded and we can learn from.

This man speaks the truth, i reckon.

Same thing Toymods has, except normal members can't view the Club Members ride section. And half the members have a copy of their Club Members ride thread in the normal section as well

Not a bad idea. Will persue it with the mod team.

Or just be fair, not pin any rides at all.

Then any member who constantly update his/her ride gets bump to the top anyways.

IMO on PINNED RIDES

Pinned rides should be rides that the club can be proud of, since it is the place that visitors to the club first check.

If I had my way I would include include Past AND Present rides (whether it was sold years ago, it should still be pinned if it was once a hot car).

So it'll be more like a Hall of Fame.

And it shouldn't be about the ride of the most popular member etc.. pinned rides should have some form of:

- innovation (the first to experiment with mods and made it work), and this can be anything including, performance (power, handling) to visual and audio (kit, audio setups)

- achievement (power, track times, comp trophies, etc.),

- overall balance (if your only mod is a $3000 brembo kit, its not going to get pinned)

sounds good, though theres maybe 2 or 3 cars that fit that description in the pinned rides section at the moment.

heres what the currant pinned rides criterias are.

- silver membership

- being a mod (which prity much gives you the rite to pin every car you own your pet cat and the misses if you see fit)

which is why the members rides section is in the state its in at the moment.

i cant see any reason why the pinned rides cant stay where it is as long as theres a major clean up like the one stated by dhc09, other wise i think it would be better off moved to its own section.

      overheated engine

      I drive a 2010 series 200 sahara V8 automatic. I recently towed a small caravan on a not that hotter day. The temperature gauge went to about half then dropped back to normal. The motor then went into limp mode and eventually stopped. On lifting the bonnet i noticed the top radiator tank had split all the way across. I have only two months ago had the complete cooling system checked with no defects. I called the RAA in South Aust and they tried to start it but just turned over but did not fire up. It was still pretty hot. I have been told the motor would be ruined by overheating. The car has been sitting at the repairers for 5 days now and as far as i know it has not been attempted to start. Before putting a new motor in it would it be worth putting a new radiator in it and see if it will fire up? Open to any suggestions at this stage.

      1996 Trueno XZ - Is it worth modding?

      Depends on how common/rare they are in your part of the world. The XZ trim was the second-lowest so didn't come with most of the fun bits that the full-fruit BZG/V/R models did, so it's not anywhere near as desirable stock but sometimes you have to make do with what you can find, plus you shouldn't feel as guilty modding the heck out of it since most of it isn't special.

      VSC, Traction Control, Check Engine lights all on

      I attended Toyota Preston for Aurion ATX 2013 major service today. Cost $~$1300. On the way home I stopped to pick up dinner. Two fault lights: engine and VSC lights came on when I restarted the car. Car drove home just fine. I can only return the car tomorrow for them to sort out. Annoyed. Let’s see if they’re still on in the morning.

      1996 Trueno XZ - Is it worth modding?

      Hi everyone, new member to the group and owner driver of a nifty little Toyota Sprinter Trueno XZ, now this was my cousins car, I bought it off him and after various drives, I have come to the decision that this needs alot of love. Now I am wondering if its worth putting my time and money into doing this certain make n model up or should I just buy a different car to do up? I am not very car-inclined so I really don't know a lot. Any opinions would be very helpful Thankful!

      Android auto

      OK. Does any of Toyota's advertising material mention Android Auto? If so then kick up a stink, with Toyota management, about misrepresentation and false advertising, reminding them of the hefty fines. Herb
