I voted yes but chances are that most of the stuff is already on here somewhere but to have them all in one place for easy access would be good

The scoobynet FAQ, often mentioned, never created.

But an excellent idea. There are some superb threads already for fitting dump valves, gauges etc so it would just need someone to collate and manage them in one area, but then you have the problem of ppl using pics in their threads on their personal photobuckets - which they then delete - so you need some webspace for images. Someone also needs to make sure that the info in the how2's is correct and not just someones idea of how they bodged it lol.


Mind you the Tech forum may go quite stale with everyones standard answer being 'Check the FAQ'. At least now we have to say 'use the search'

I would say a Wiki is the ideal format for an IMpreza How2. It could be updated as thinking changes/new methods are found. And would pretty much be self regulating.

On another forum I was on, there was a holding area, where people created How To's, and the mods approved them.
Its definately something that this site needs.

The American scooby sites do this very well, spent many an hour looking through well detailed and pictorial how to things.
Very good idea.

I was suprised there wasn't a "How To" section here already, i looked around for ages before realising

Definitely needs to be done!

I totally misread the title, I thought you were asking for advice on how to get someone committed

Its is a great idea and one that already exists on ISN: .:ImprezaSport.net Forums:. -> Impreza Sport: "How To..." Guides
this has proved really well for the forum members.

it's a great idea,

separate forum area for the different versions would be good.

saves searching the site for something on your year of car and getting results for an older/newer version than you have.

We're incredibly busy with ScoobyLIVE currently, but will try to take a look at whats involved next week. I'd rather do this properly than a half-baked idea.

Thanks for the great suggestion.

Apparently it's all in hand. But like Webby said on the other thread, with SNLive coming up and all the glitches that have needed sorted since the .co.uk-.com change over, that some things get knocked down the pecking order.

Something like this?
