This would end up being one big information catalog and nothing to talk about, except in off topic.
The repeated posts are always the common problems and questions that we have with our cars. I have done a search before and couldn't come up with the information I needed, rather than bring up a dead thread I would just start a new one.
Most of the old threads are 10% information and 90% of people talking anyways.
If it's a thread that has really useful information, specially if it's a hot topic that gets brought up almost once a week it needs to be made into a sticky at the top of the forum.
Personally it doesn't bother me

I like when a question is asked when there is the same question just a few posts down. I don't really mind the same questions being asked because there are quite a few newbs, but enough with the "has anyone installed torque thrust wheels?". There must be 500+ post on this topic alone.

The main search function is useless. Go into advances search and make sure the archive box is checked, then do your search. You can also narrow the results down by selecting a section.
I am on the forum alot and I do get tired of reading the same questions over and over. The newbies need to learn to use the search function. As for nothing new gettting posted there will always be the 'talk' threads and there will always be new problems

So...
Can I mount Torque Thrust II's on a Be Cool aluminum radiator, plus weld a Magnaflow exhaust to it? And what sort of ET's would that radiator move at?
Surely SOMEONE has to know, what with all the posts on those topics...
