I am starting a "good thread" archive. Post up the links to the threads that you find particularly helpful and I will update the first post from time to time. If it proves to be popular, maybe one of the mods will make it a sticky. I will try to keep some sort of order to the threads here so it would be nice if you can describe the thread in the text portion of the hyperlink function when you post. Here is an example of what I mean:

Do not post this:

http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=22856&hl=e153

Post this instead:

Making the MR2 Turbo tranny work in a front wheel drive Celica

Lets see how good of a thread we can create.

Good idea for a sticky since I don't think that the site really needs an archive section.

Bump. Any threads that you found particularly helpful you want to add to this archive?

Hey guys, how about a little love here? This could be very cool. Check out honda-tech.com or celicatech.com and see their stickies and archive sections. The very cool thing is that you can just go read these threads that contain VERY useful information WITHOUT spending hours searching. I know you guys have some favorites. Lets go people!

I have a question......I created this thread-Some repair tips for GT4/3SGTE owners- and now have some more to add to it - namely fitting a decat pipe and some other bits and pieces. can I post it on the same thread without being hounded / flamed for bringing back an old thread or should I start a new one??

Not really. All I did was set up this thread and start a group buy that is bound to turn out better than the one for the VIS skirts.

Nice work guys! >biggrin.gif>

Maybe it's just me, but it seems as if it'd be more logical if each forum had its own thread like this that would be stickied. What do you guys think? (I'll clean this thread up once I get some responses.) >wink.gif>

I'm disappointed this thread hasn't been as embraced as it should, it contains a lot of pertinent information which may be hard to find (or time consuming).

Anyway, here's a website which seems to have very helpful information (not sure if it's well known, but I certainly didn't know about it):

Some general suspension and maintenance tips

While not exactly a thread on 6gc... info is still info right? >biggrin.gif> (also, +1 bump)
