pat1 Posted April 5, 2010 Author Share Posted April 5, 2010 I guess times must be tough. I remember when there would be a post every few min. Now it seems like a post every few days. I know, I remember it also and it was not that long ago. This one post every few days is getting old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cygnusx1 Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Don't forget that people in the colder climates are just breaking out of their cabins to go play outside too! Â Ever try staying couped up in a house with no Z for four months! Â You would be outside too when the weather finally broke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pat1 Posted May 4, 2010 Author Share Posted May 4, 2010 This is freaking sad as hell. One post a day. This is getting old. Come on guys. What happened? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wedge Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 I to find this very sad it used to be a very prolific forum and now you ask a question or an opinion and a month later no answers . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSM Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 (edited) On the flip side, I'm just very grateful the site is still here. You could spend months reading old threads. Change is always a little difficult, but is necessary. It is not right, it is not wrong, it is just different.

rayaapp2 Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Its definitely slow here. I cannot account for it either. Everyone must be to busy to log into hybridz and answer questions. If they really were stuck inside somewhere the boards would be lite up here I would think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB26powered74zcar Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Yep... it's def slowed down. Hate to think all the seasoned guy's have just quit checking in and posting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZR8ED Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Well as a "seasoned" guy, I'm still here reading, but I'm not doing much with the car these days. Once people finish a project, they kinda drop off for a bit. The Northern group is definately in the garage more..All that winter reading, its time to put it to good use. Someone hurry up and buy my Z so I can start on a new project! All I can post about it, is how well it is driving, that I still get lots of stares while in it, and the megasquirt works so well, it has reduced my fuel costs all accross the power band except WOT! hehehe. Boring eh? Scott. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240Z_Master Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 I guess I'm a seasoned guy that hasn't done much to my car lately except drive it too... It's about god damn time as well since most of our cars were on jackstands longer than the car actually ran. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pat1 Posted June 2, 2010 Author Share Posted June 2, 2010 Very slow. It's kinda like watching paint dry lol. It takes two weeks to fill up a page. All I can say is as soon as hybridz changed servers/ website this rb forum went down hill fast. I don't know about the other sections.

I don't know about the other sections. i noticed a lot of the automotive related blogs that i follow have slowed down big time too. they used to all be updated daily but now once a week, if that.

itsadatsun240z Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 I've noticed since the ZR200 rear sump oil pan went NLA that most of the forums I've been on that used it have slowed down considerably as that has become the biggest hurdle for "low budget swaps" the RB25 prices have also plummeted here locally due to that very fact a few months ago they were going for $2,500+ and are now down below $1,400, because the "custom" oil pans add so much more to the total cost of the swap. Just a personal observation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a personal observation. I have been building custom pans for several months now. I have a few versions available now from 250.00-575.00.

RS Speed Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 (edited) Don't like the slowness myself but I've personally been busier than usual.... I do try to answer all pm's and help as much as I can though. It was more lively before, hopefully things pickup again Edited June 3, 2010 by RS Speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators RTz Posted June 3, 2010 Administrators Share Posted June 3, 2010 This forum has always been more about quality than quantity. Not an explanation, necessarily, but... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Donovan_ Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 Maybe because it is a forum about a 40 year old car. Most everything has been done before and can be searched rather than creating a new topic about. For me the my350z.com board is slow as well but there nothing new is going on and every topic created is flamed by d bags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PA240 Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 I wish i knew how to move my build thread to this section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwi303 Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 I wish i knew how to move my build thread to this section. Grovel convincingly in the direction of the Mods, and ship the one that takes pity on you a crate of beer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WizardBlack Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 Well, I kinda went into hybernation with so much going on at work, but recently I went into hybridization. I made my own oil pan with trap door baffles and windage tray, got the RB in the car, ordered a Wolf V500 and I have been getting all the plumbing and whatnot done. I really need to drag out the camera and update my build thread. It's quite outdated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zrookie Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 +1 on the board change. Hopefully picks back up to normal. Honestly this is the main reason why. At least for me. every time I come into HybridZ it make me no wanna browse anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
