Good work Pyro! This'll be heaps helpful. Reminds me of a gaming forum when they have stickies for quests and stuff hahaha

LC2ner 06-11-2012 06:52 AM

Can be sticky, please?

PyroDave 06-11-2012 07:14 AM

i'll let it sit for a day or two, hopefully it will get recognized by a mod by then, if not i'll PM someone. just dunno if it should be like ken/neuron since they are around these parts more, or ron a/astro

also, if you know of others that i forgot, didn't see, post them up, every couple i'll try to have a mod edit them in

ssjoeboe9 06-11-2012 07:39 AM

Haha cool! I have so many DIY. I feel accomplished lol

justnspace 06-11-2012 07:43 AM

never Ron A. or Astro. :run:


get Ken to do it.

opboarding 06-11-2012 09:12 AM

Sweet. Needs to be a sticky. There have been a bunch of times I needed to look at a DIY and had to search through a bunch of thread results to find it.

TSXKid2010 06-11-2012 09:39 AM

You just haaaaad to make it easy for the newbies huh, LOL.

mrstak 06-11-2012 09:46 AM

but we need a sticky to tell the newbies to read the stickies!

damaged442 06-11-2012 09:57 AM

Thanks PyroDave!

robpp 06-11-2012 12:10 PM

add the Progress RSB thread with how to drill the holes and such

please

drivedata 06-11-2012 07:27 PM

i think the cardboard bodykit thread should be on there as well as ed's rainbow unicorn tsx photo (methinks covershot?). killerg's failed curse word in the title thread would also be helpful for people to understand what kind of degeneracy lurks in this here 2G forum.

and as a grand finale a link to the online registration for the seeyou2 crew could round out the post for thoroughness and completeness.

ttk5 06-12-2012 06:01 AM

Used the turn signal resistor one today.

ssjoeboe9 06-12-2012 08:45 AM

did everything work out^^

Mr. NC 06-12-2012 08:10 PM

THis is so epic. i REALLY hope people read this.

Wonder if it will last longer than KillerG's search thread...thread

MrOtocinclus 06-13-2012 11:36 PM

Wow Pyro, this is a great idea and an excellent resource. Thumbs up!

thanks, spent about two hours at 3am, sifting through pages that came up when i typed DIY into the search, then linking and typing each. not too hard, but felt it'd be nice to have =)

Misc-ura 06-15-2012 03:30 PM

This is amazing and needs to be a sticky

justnspace 06-15-2012 03:35 PM

savclaude 06-16-2012 05:37 AM

lol why didn't you just take the lead like you did with killerg's curse word thread

PyroDave 06-16-2012 12:39 PM

to my knowledge thats a negative. you could PM OP of this thread, as he took the tails apart, he may have help to offer, and you could then document and give us a DIY ;) https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...removal&page=2

last post in this thread also links to a TL tail light removal guide, and he said it was very similar. good luck https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...+light+removal

I'm above the law :O

ssjoeboe9 06-18-2012 08:26 PM

I have 1 DIY in each section except for suspension and maintenance. Hmmmm....

PyroDave 06-19-2012 01:33 AM

just sent Ron A a PM because Ken is probably dealing with personal stuff as he hasn't been online in a week, if you dont see me anymore, i've likely been raped by Majofo then banned... lmfao

CGTSX2004 06-19-2012 09:43 AM

Thanks PyroDave for taking the time to compile this. I have made the thread a sticky and updated the title to make it more obvious what info is in the thread.

For everyone else, please send along links to other DIY threads that you find and would like included. A mod will check this thread every once in a while and update the original post with new entries as needed.

PyroDave 06-19-2012 10:17 AM

Thanks CG, I'm busy today, but late tonight I will add several more DIY that have been created.

For future reference guys, when you post a link to a DIY, rename the URL as I did so we know what each link is, and also state under which category it belongs. That way there is minimal work required of the mods

ssjoeboe9 06-19-2012 11:00 AM

You did it bro!!!! Great contribution!

opboarding 06-19-2012 11:15 AM

Pyrodave, moving up in the world. Now in the big leagues with all the other stickied users. Will he let all this power go to his head, or will he continue to be the simple helpful man to us common folk?

ssjoeboe9 06-19-2012 01:48 PM
