No one here is going to argue what you have or havn't done, however your initial attitude is what has caused everyone to give you a hard time.
I think that you do actually mean well, but you have just got off to a bad start.
If you are planning on sticking around i suggest you start to listen to other peoples opinion or advice and not just say this is how it is and thats final.

I could pay out on you like everyone else (eg when you said to sleeve a block which has a massive hole out the side) however this will only make you retaliate and not make the forums any better for it.

Start again, Introduce yourself and post a few pics or a dyno sheet and im sure people will get off your case.

this forum is definitely BY FAR the best car forum i've ever SEEN let alone been a member of. i dont want it brought down to the level of other shitty forums like ozgemini.com because of arrogance and threatening behaviour. no one cares how many shops you've worked for. if u have worked for quite a few in 10 years that means u are having trouble holding a job, right?

the technical forum is for troubleshooting, not quantum physics. as has been mentioned, i'm in the process of collating information and pics for a twin cam how too thread (as there has been many failed attempts previously) but i'm not gonna start posting that until i have all the information.

ps paragraphs are cool, too.

The Technical forum is for Technical questions...... this area is for people that have genuine problems with a Starion, or need to find a bit of information that may help.
Yes it may become boring.... but we are all here to help each other.
Maybe you should have posted what you wanted to say in the general section.
Can the moderator move this all over to there please, because it is wasting space.

Agreed this isnt a tech question so it should be moved or deleted.

Engine specs, Pics & dyno printout would help give him credability also his "strait "line drag time slip as well so it can be recorded in the fastest Starion listings

I like and back Oldies comments.... so 4gpwr put up or shut up. Anyone can say they're this or that and make wild claims about their cars but from what I've seen in my 48 years is that the people who "do" just get on and do and let the results speak. Those that dont just talk bullshit. So back up your comments with dyno sheets, lap times/ time slips and a pic of a Starion that you own would be nice. Then I'll take you seriously. Until then, sorry but your a clown.

Its just funny that for someone who lays claims to having been around a while with a Starion doing times and all that, a lot of the Melbourne people here who watch all things Starion with some interest dont seem to have ever heard or seen you in action or otherwise.
Never argue with an idiot, it brings you down to their level and they beat you with experience.

HAHAHA This thread is so funny. It cracks me up. 4gpwr if you noticed it seems that you are the one with a problem. Anyone on here is welcome to their own opinions and there is no problems with people on this forum not knowing much about cars. That is why they are here. To LEARN.

As for not touching your car with a spanner, I think its pretty safe to say that ANYONE who owns a starion would know how to fix most things themselves. If I have to explain my reasoning behind this answer I think its pretty safe to say you have never owned a starion.
