WTF - My ferrari tubi exhaust

[zco]

just a side note: perhaps moderators could have a look at modifications that can fit honda cars aswell, and create guidelines for them. Such things like a CAT converters from HSV or a Falcon/XR6 would definately be handy to those hondas making more power. Another example could be FTO or WRX Seats fitting into our Honda's. If they decide to not have these for sale, then that would be understandable and maybe an update in the conditions of posting in the FS section.

As for the deletion of the OP's FS thread, perhaps the moderator was just following the guidlines of his job. You cannot blame mods for not noticing everything that goes on. They have their own lives to run aswell. As Q_ball has stated, use the report a post if you're not happy.

Perhaps this is a good idea from a buyer/seller's persepctive but not from a moderating/logistical one.
A lot of things can be made to fit another make/model given the right modifications and money is injected into the mod.
This is a honda forum, so its only natural that only honda parts/vehicles are allowed to be sold here.
This rule is a clear cut and simple rule to enforce and follow as it minimizes the number of 50/50 scenarios - if its not honda, its not on.

People expect too much of our FS section.. when it all comes as a FREE service.
If you're not happy, then simply PAY to sell on tradingpost or ebay and they'll be most accomodating.

I'm not really kicking up a stink, since I actually don't have a Ferrari Tubi exhaust to sell.
It was an experiment, to see what would happen more than anything.

In conclusion, I would like to see better moderating and/or more moderators.

Fair enough, but as said before, this is something for Wyn and the other admin/mods to decide.

Yeh, it was only a suggestion as i stated, if not then no loss. We've been buying and selling as is for so many years without issues. If it doesnt break then dont fix it. but if its an improvement then why not ?

kinda like wheels i say.. fits on one car, and may fit our honda's.. conditions of posting should be updated to stop ppl from getting having a cry

if it does make ppls job's harder and cost more then theres really no point doing it

Where do you draw the line? With enough work, my "F430 Tubi exhaust" could fit on a dc5r.

Can you please update this thread when you guys make a decision.

Thats exactly my point.
A rule that allows so many grey areas and 50/50 situations, is NOT a good rule.

Can you please update this thread when you guys make a decision.

Will do, most of the other guys should respond to this within the next day or so.

Please stick within logic... Have you seen a F430 exhaust (even just a pic) before? It has 2 inlet pipes. Last I checked, any 4-cyl Honda had only 1 inlet pipe. Unless someone has a V6 Accord and wants to make it sound like a 3-cyl Daihatsu Mira or someone with an NSX is silly enough to buy a F430 tubi instead of a NSX tubi, it makes no sense putting that FS thread.

Personally, I wouldn't have deleted it because it was a Ferrari. I would have deleted it because you didn't have the item in the first place!

BTW, if someone had an aftermarket shifter stick with an M12 x 1.25 pattern, then they would have to use a Toyota knob. Heck, even the knob that I am using is NOT a Honda knob!

But with enough work, I could change it to a 1 inlet pipe.
Or maybe I had a 430 motor in my civic.
See what I mean?
Where do you draw the line?

If you think that the Toyota knob was ok to be in the for sale section, what do you define as "Honda"?

[power_of_dreams]

If for some abstract reason someone had an aftermarket shifter stick with an M12 x 1.25 pattern, they would have to use a knob that suits.

This knob does not necessarily have to be a toyota knob, just a knob that is M12 x 1.25.

So you may not be using a "Honda" knob, but I'm assuming you are using a knob that is M12 x 1.5, which is how it came out of the factory.

Again, where do you draw the line?
Ferrari engine in a civic is pretty absurd, but someone with a 1.25 in their honda isn't that far off.
Are we going to cater for every individual and their individual modifications?
