If you ask nicely we can change usernames

So you're the cause of our problems huh? If people on at the time of the "crash" can post up info such as date/time plus what they were doing at the time and how long the outage was for then we can do something about it. For the record its not actually crashing, we're not restarting anything, something is just overloading it momentarily. Could be a bot, could be chat, theres a lot of variables to work through. Chat will most likely be disabled tonight to see if that solves it.

Think you are right Dave, you get the same on most body panels but the filler cap is the worse. They'll be sprayed seperately so the flecks line up at a different angle which means they reflect the light differently to the body and thus give off a different colour. Its a lot more noticeable to cameras for some reason.

Is the forum still locking out for people on a night? If so please can you use this thread to detail what you were doing at the time, in chat for example or just browsing the forum. Date and time is especially important. As this site doesnt have full time moderators/admins it is very hard for us to nail down problems like this especially if they are assocaited to an unsupported mod like chat, which we may just have to remove/replace. Traffic to the site has grown greatly over the past few months so any tuning we are doing it just holding water with the new found attention we are getting - but we will do our best to keep the site up as much as possible. We may well be moving to a managed UK host in the near future which should also help us out. To reiterate - the more details we have the better to help work out what is wrong

Would certainly help our boys

Sure they will have Hamilton back one day Dave, then we'll see the true fastest driver

OK, ta

Thanks for posting. So no updates for Connect Premium yet then?

If you are on OEM cats and Y-pipe its not worth it. If you get a free flowing Y-pipe as part of the new exhaust, it could be tempting, but personally I'd get HFCs too then have the tune with Y-pipe and HFCs

Sorry, due to F1 and other inconsiderate timings (Amanda needing it just after I got it done and not returning until this evening!), I got the car done but no pics Will get some tomorrow evening. I will say it shows Nissan how to do a proper metallic, but the paint finish isnt quite as good as Nissan in terms of perfect laying/spraying of paint as there are a few blemishes. Its wonderful to drive for a run around though, has as much torque as the 370z

Whats the current best chat protocol then? I havent used anything in years, but IRC is so simple there shouldnt be any problems with it.

At least it gets it off our server and keeps the forum running fine OR you lot just dont post big pics and everyone is happy as the forum runs fine

Looks like chat, but you have to sign in using a different client (ie not a browser but stand alone software). Thats what Chat emulates Go google it, its proper geek

Afraid its not that easy. The server has plenty of resources left. A lot of the issues stem from the fact that the database is not set up for our level of usage and needs tuning which we are working on. We could always set up a proper IRC channel if people want to use chat on an more than leisurely scale

+1 to this. I had Stillen exhaust and intakes before my UpRev and it was still running really rich, so you'll be fine. For comparison I've heard a stock car is about 270WHP, w/Stillen exhuast 290WHP, w/Stillen exhaust + intake 300WHP and w/Stillen exhaust + intake + remap 310WHP (Colin also got 310WHP with Stillen exhaust and remap). So remap definately worth it but you'll have a good chunck of new power without it

Well not mine not exactly - its Amanda's but hiding in the garage waiting to be prepped properly tomorrow - washed and ready for clay/polish/wax

what does that mean? I think he means - if you don't stop fecking about experimenting with the chat crashing the forum your little home will be terminated! Pretty much. If we now know that big pics crash chat and/or the forum, please dont post big pics in there. If we find that people still are, and it repeatedly crashes the forum we'll either disable pics in chat (can do that via config very easily) or remove chat altogether. Without hacking up the code we cant add the possiblity of size checking, so you'll have to play nice or your toys will be removed

Chat is the only thing I've found so far

Not really 350z related this - moved

Not going to be recoding the Chat mod, if you guys cant play nice it will just get removed

What have you guys been doing? Chat doesnt appear to work in IE9 either

Ere Mista does it fit a 370z? Cant believe this hasnt sold yet.

Saw Terry take to the hill twice and it was very impressive (click image for vid) Will post up the rest of the pics at some point. Somehow managed to not make it onto the Nissan stand

And the forums introducers fee is very reasonable too
