Low budget brake upgrades:

Search for "Legend calipers" (NSX calipers work too).

The original FAQ hasn't been updated in a long time, but a lot of the info is still valid.
You should probably have a link that points to it - perhaps call it: General 2nd Gen information or something.

I noticed you did include a link to an entry in it. (the CLP vs CLS)

Yep, it's linked... 2nd line in the first post... right under "click here to seach the forum".

hmm... I guess I need a way to make those things stick out more...

edit: ok, I made the "search" line red, and the link to the FAQ orange instead of blue like everything else.

We need to have a bunch of links for "common issues" on CL's... So when noobs ask "what things should I look out for when looking for a CL" we don't have to repeat ourselves...

John, I really like the way the TL thread is set up. I also especially like how the "Ctrl+F" feature is explained. I guess a lot of people don't even realize you can search a page like that. I even forget about it sometimes.

My only other advice would be to put things in alphabetical order rather than by system/component. However, I think we are on the right track as it's setup now...

Check out the XJ FAQ sticky here on Jeepforum: http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=89273 Everything I have searched in there has been so easy to find. I think the 2nd Gen CL should be similar. What do you think?

I'd suggest making the font in red. Like the Street Encounters' FAQ section. With it red, it pops out easier, and makes you wanna read it. With ours being yellow, like the AZ logo, it makes it blend in more.

I also said that in a PM, but oh well.

Damn, I knew that sounded familiar... it's deja vu, all over again

I made it red ('cause we all know that red is the best color for CL's, right Ryan), and now it's a clickable link too
