Default Steering\suspension forum (:

A steering\suspension forum would be great for all nb owners,a forum in which everyone can ask+post anything without being defined as 2.0,1.8,ect.The questions\concerns forum is great,but too generic to include everything.

I'm sure this has been covered(?)...bump,it would be for the best,versatility pwns

Just going to bump this to say +1. Maybe a wheels and tires forum as well.

Edit: I just noticed we have a cooking forum, but no suspension forum. . .

+1 bazzilion...

Brakes,wheels,steering,suspension can be morphed into a single forum

Cooking? ,yes,it would make it easier to find answers to above related issues..

Cool idea, what do we call the Brakes, wheels, steering, suspsension forum?


I kinda just figured "technical modifications" covered it, but lets tease some more ideas out that you guys like.

I won't sticky more threads than we do now. Unless someone takes the time to build a nice FAQ like maybe a sticky thread w/links to other non-stickied threads. That would be very useful!

You could call it the "Handling Forum" or something like that.

The other sites that I'm a member to separate wheels and tires from suspension and braking.

Here's one example:

Brakes, Steering & Suspension (34 Viewing)
The Brakes, Steering & Suspension forum on NASIOC if for technical discussion about any aspect of a cars handling performance. Excludes tires and wheels.

Tire & Wheel (29 Viewing)
The Tire & Wheel forum on NASIOC is for discussion about... you guessed it... Tires and Wheels!

Also a slightly different suggestion:

I would move the OT forums to the bottom and move the Technical forums right below the news section.

I like "The Four Corners" Would be nice. We've had a lot of suspension questions lately. It would be helpful and easier to find that way.
