So before I found this forum of course i found tc.net. So i went through there little process of getting in which i think was a little un over the top. But man, they don't seem to care for you guys too much. Is there like a rivalry I don't know about. I mean they have a thread about you guys. I think its kinda stupid. We all love Cress's so whats with the hate?

[Foompla]

they have a thread? how did i miss that lol.

They think that Jzxproject is full of elitists, and jzx project is tired of reading about people asking how to set ignition timing and wondering if they have a blown head gasket.

edit: oh, it was the one gorden started wondering why the forum was down for a bit.

[toyopetsftw]

Oh ok gotcha. Yeah it starts out asking about the whole site being down then the bottom says "I hate those" something or other. Just wasn't sure why they would have anything against you guys. Oh well. I like both forums. Thanks for the heads up.

[toyopetsftw]

I think I was trying to say un necessary but for some reason I lost my train of thought. My bad.

[driftaholic]

Awesome. Link please.

I haven't been on TC.net in years this will be a good excuse.

It's ok. If the internet was a real place and TC.net and JZXP had a brawl they'd all be in the hospital.

[KryptoniteFusion]

Really?

I don't really feel there's a rivalry.
u guys know as well as I do that noobs clutter the forum and even pm u msgs with tons of annoying noob questions.

we all could end up at the same meet. u guys made urselves well known in the cressida community. i dont want to know what will happen if this gets to a more personal level.

[rayray]

to bring you up to speed, there are weekly turf wars where members go out in their g'd up rides and mad-dog eachother. if that doesn't settle it it ends in a sudden death stepping competition. gets pretty intense.

[JimmyHoffa]

I got banned from TC.net a long time ago. I don't think I even did anything other than tell useless noobs applying here to "go back to TC.net" They just hate on us because we do things differently. The thing I can't get over on TC.net is the 20 page threads with 8/10 posts being repeat questions or stupid sack riding comment like "nice wheels" or " what offset are they" when the offset is clearly stated. Basically, we don't put up with idiocy. If you aren't a competent internet user and car enthusiast you won't last here.

Let me put it into perspective.

1. How many threads on JZXP pop up with subjects that have to do with BHG?
2. How many threads on JZXP pop up with subjects that have to do with gurgling dash's?
3. How many threads on JZXP pop up with subjects that have to do with "How hard is it to turbo my 7M?"
4. How many threads on JZXP pop up with subjects that have to do with "Do 10x1 rims fit on my Cress?"
5. How many threads on JZXP pop up with subjects that have to do with "Does anyone know how to do a JZ swap?"
6. How many threads on JZXP pop up with subjects that have to do with "How do you get the tape player to work?"


ETC....


TC.net is a wonderful place for newbies to gather resources about their new-to-them Cressidas. JZXP concentrates mainly on performance for the experienced Cressida noggins. You know, those who know how to take apart their X-chassis and reassemble it without having to bug a forum. JZX is here for us, the ones who are sharing our knowledge and comparing notes to boost our experiences on building a performance oriented Cressida.

Obviously, some of the members on TC.net don't like this kind of exclusiveness in JZXP and hate this forum because they tried to pull that BS of the examples stated above on here and got their ass ripped.


JZX is the dark side. We are free to say FUCK FUCKITY FUCK FUCK!!!! without offending the senior members because we are real. We just want to have a great time and don't need a nagging nanny telling us we cant say F****

Being new to both forums,

I find both as useful as each other

the TC.net forum is more professional looking etc where as this forum is more young person orientated

I think all car model biased forums have the same thing occur

we had fordforums.com.au and then a bunch of younger more open minded/laid back people got into an argument or some crap with the big wig moderators and they decided to make their own forum called boostedfalcon.net which had mostly E series falcons mostly with turbos and had a very similar user base as this forum with the lack of blocked swearing etc

best to just co exist and let people roam between the 2
eventually finding which style forum they prefer

[ChriSOL]

more professional looking how?

[toyopetsftw]

I see. Well I have noticed that the boards on tc.net are filled with repetitive questions. I can see how that would be very irritating. You guys are more of the advanced level where as they are beginner. Well I'm still pretty new with my cress but I assure you I won't be asking questions like that about it. And I apologize for the engine questions. I just over think everything and I'm becoming quite OCD with my car.

[JimmyHoffa]

^^^I would be down with co-existing with TC.net , but the cock gobblers banned me for directing people who could legitimately benefit from their site to them. So..... fuck TC.net and their couch.

[blackers10]

By more professional I mean having the swear filter and not having questionable stuff like a section called bullshitters.

Sall fun and games on the www..

I'm guess I was lucky enough to find this forum before TC.net. I tried, well actually did join that forum because I'm an information whore. I got booted for not doing anything...literally. Here is the email I received:
