New "swapped" branch - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #63254 5 posts Started by 6G94celica
This is just an idea and maybe ill get flamed for it but say what you gotta say.

I think that when you go into the members ride search there should be a swapped section or sub-section for the type of car you own. that way the people that do have a swapped car can label it so. whether they have a car with say a 3sgte, 4a-ge, 3sge, or whatever it may be. People with a 3sgte you know what im talking about because you dont really have a say st or gt anymore, sure you have the shell of one. and you cant call it a gt4 because thats not what it is either. I know alot of people will probably say, something like **** is still **** no matter how the sun hits it, an ST is still an ST even with all the parts of a GT.

Truthfully i dont see how it would be that hard of a change but then again it might not even be something anyone is interested in.

Get your thoughts on here and see what happens.

I like the idea of having a field for the engine. 30 chars would be plenty: "2.0 L turbo 239 bhp l4 3S-GTE". A checkbox next to the field for whether the engine is swapped or not. And of course, to be able to search for only members rides with the checkbox checked.

On the subject of the Celica details page, I have some further suggestions:

* A field added next to "Color": "Color code"
* Two new text areas in the mods section: "Planned Works" and "Wishlist"
* It would be nice if the text areas supported a simple subset of BBCode, HTML or similar markup
* A way to link the products in the parts database to the mods section

Yea, a checkbox next to color and colorcode also - "custom color" ?
