    Idea: Maybe Two Different For Sale/WTB threads:

    Don't know about you guys but being that I dislike the X body style and probably going to stick with my Evo IX till I die and possibly be buried in it lol. But would be a little easier in the private members for sale threads to have something for Evo X Vehicles and another for the Evo VIII and Evo IX vehicles? I guess I'm just lazy but I hate looking and seeing a thread stating items for sale and when I click on them hoping it something I may want turns out its for an Evo X and not useable for an Evo IX.

    IDK just a suggestion of possibly something that could be added or even a little fix like maybe having members post in the title "FS: Evo IX:" and "FS: Evo X". I noticed it has been done already for the vendors area but just wanted to pass that along in case others are lazy like me haha.

    I'll toss the idea to the higher power lol. But yes Socalevo isn't what it use to be. When I first signed up I couldn't post on the fs forums. I had to be on here for at least 30 days or have 50 post. But when they updated the site all that was changed/screwed.

    While it would be nice to have two separate for sale forums, one dedicated to each version (CT9A, CZ4A), there is not enough for sale threads to justify splitting up the section. Not to mention, that would further truncate too many threads into separate forums and making for a bigger section to navigate. Furthermore, with the amount of wrong threads being posted on the wrong sections, evobros will go crazy moving stuff around :P

    That being said, I like the idea to start naming FS threads with the prefix of FS: Evo VIII or FS: Evo IX or FS: Evo X in the title. That way we dont have to ask the seller a million times what the part is for, something the logic of having the pics posted the first time is meant to solve.

    I think that last suggestion by Thero makes the most sense.

    this site doesn't have enough traffic daily for us to create a fs thread specifically for certain models. sure it would be more organized but its more threads to monitor. the best we can possibly do is, what you suggested.

    FS/(car model) : (item)

    FS/EVO 7-9: Voltex wing

    FS/ EVO X : Voltex wing

    yeah. that suggestion makes the most sense. makes it a lot easier to sort through, and maybe saves you a click or two if it doesnt really fit your car.

    and you're absolutely right. traffic is also a factor. there just wont be that much traffic creating that many model-specific FS threads. so you might end up with a FS forum that has one or three threads.

    Been a while since I came back to this glad to see it got good feedback and I see your point with the traffic and extra need to help mod separate body styles. Glad the idea of FS Topic Subject is coming out as a good possibility.
