I think I'm going to find it difficult to reach 25 post any time soon, if I need something I always search the forums first. The amount of info on here is priceless.

A couple of ways you can do it, we have a small yearly subscription, sub $20 I think, which gives you full Access straight away, or just introduce 23 New members.

Hope you hang around afterwards mate.

Why not post up a question about what happened with the turbo.

You might get a personalised response directly to your question and extra advice you never thought of from fellow members.

I'd be shooting myself in the foot not to hang about afterwards, the manuals are helpful, but theres so much info being discussed thats way more valuable than just the manuals. FYI the turbo over spooled and snapped the impeller shaft, sucked a gut full of oil into the exhaust. The intake is in bits in the old mans shed, getting the nads kit done as we speak, new after market billet turbo, pressure testing the intercooler to make sure that didn't get taken out too. Took the intake manifold off to check for gunk but it looked unusually clean. I'm going to put up a new thread and see what genius ideas/pointers people have. Cheers fellas.

Unfortunately you need to have 25 posts to get access to the manuals.

We used to have the manuals available for anyone with no restrictions but the cost's involved were extremely high and for a free forum that doesn't make enough money to support itself we had to put a restriction on to reduce costs for this FREE service to you.

If you are after the manuals then simply put up an introduction about yourself in the introductions section, welcome some other new members and join in some conversations.

It should only take you 10 minutes to do rack up 25 posts. Please do not post rubbish all over the forum otherwise you will be banned. Unfortunately we have to do this to keep the forum going otherwise it would have to shut down so we hope you understand.

We are a friendly community here willing to help our members and we hope that you stick around after you get the manuals and get involved with this great forum.

You might make some life long friendships and be a part of one of the most helpful communities in the world.

Enjoy!

It's rigth 100%

Thanks for the service, it would be better to have this requirement of 25 posts before you can download manuals more prominent other than that it is a great community.

Could I add a suggestion, that it be a minimum of 25 posts and 3 months?
I prefer to read and learn myself so don't comment bugger all, but just thought the time to wait might be a good idea. [emoji106]

thanks mate but I didn't really want to restrict people who desperately needed a manual to fix something and could follow simple rules.

No AB i think his point is that he might be here for 4 months and have only 10 posts and would qualify as he has been here long enough and has not posted rubbish just for the manuals and gained info from the members as a quiet reader rather than poster. It has merit.

Yep that's a good idea. I can create something for that. Good idea.

Even 1 month would be fine.

Original post was 25 posts AND 3 months but I agree Mr AB Sir your Emminence, suck grovel crawl... 25 posts OR 3 months (or 1 month or whatever) does have merit.

For sure, 1 month would at least stop people posting 25 welcome posts in a day then downloading.

Hi folks,

This has been a long time coming! I'm sure we are all sick of seeing 25 posts of crap on the forum and to be honest, we don't need that rule anymore.

I have removed that rule but I don't want non members taking the manuals as that opens up a can of worms for data so moving forward it is only 1 post and then you can download the manuals.

I hope this makes everyone's time here more pleasant as it honestly frustrated the hell out of me waking up to see spammy posts.

Enjoy!

Also Mods, I have just changed the start of this main thread to reflect the above and will go through other threads to change our discussions on the 25 posts so feel free to change to suit.

I'm sure it is plastered everywhere on the forum!

Hi mate, I have just read that AB has changed the 25 post rule so only 1 post is needed now. Hopefully a moderator will see this soon and help you out.

@Magician, its because when you joined you should of received a confirmation link via email which you would of had 2 of clicked on a link to verify yourself. Which has not been done.... and only verified members can download the manuals after the 25 ( Now 1 ) post rule.

@AB could you sort this out please

Uuummm... is there a hassle with Manual Hosting/Downloads.

A couple of dudes have mentioned they can't download them of the "manuals" link and I just checked and I couldn't either.
There is no 'hot spot'or 'active button' on the Manuals page to go to the Forum manuals and Software Boards...or... activate a download only piccy's and description of the Manuls/Refernce Documents
