Folks,

I know it's early (y'all have already burned a few candles getting the main board together)... but I was thinking that it would be really cool to build a very solid "contributed articles" section. There are probably lots of ways of "pumping" up the volume. (I'll leave that to more creative folk than I -- hint... free beer:) But think of all the general, routine maintenance things we do with our cars.. everything from valve adjustment to installing a really big wing on the trunk. Ok, so maybe it's not "really big". Not yet. Or how do you attach competition bunny ears? You are not going to get this at just any site! But perhaps I digress...

You get the idea. Where folks might be reluctant to contrib articles to a commercial site, this site may fit a sweet spot.

--krk.

I agree. Great idea. We will leave this one up and running.

Am currently working on the 914/tech info from the old site
Hang on...

Cheers,

Be careful.

The guy who put the last site up doesnt support us. He has watermarks on all the images (easy to remove) and threatened to sue if we infringed on his copywrites. We can use ALL of the technical info (its available everywhere)

Just a heads up.

I have a complete running copy of the Renegade site.

I hope to be completing my brake upgrade soon. I'm installing BMW 2002 front four piston style. I planned on taking photos complete with a side by side size comparison. I was going to post the progress on another site anyway. If no one beats me to it I'll submit it here.

I could write an article about replacing the dash pad. I'm in process right now and could take pictures of the process. Would that be of interest?

Olav,
Replacing the entire dash is my new winter project. So before I pick up a wrench, please do write and illustrate the process. That would be much appreciated.

Sure Olav,

You can either post here, or shoot it to me by e-mail: jeroen@berloth.nl
Any pics would be great as well (if you got any)

Cheers,

Jeroen
