Talked to Jack. He doesn't know at the moment if there's anywhere local he can find a junkyard or broken Tcase but he'll keep his eye out. In the meantime if anybody has a broken one to send to him he'll tear into it. And of course trannys are always welcome if anybody wants him to look at a 6MT.

One question he had is what's the policy on this forum for shop owners to come in here and gather info as a private individual without paying a vendor fee? He said he'd register and discuss it here if he can do it for free until it's time to actually sell a product.

Id have him do so under a normal name (instead of "____@JacksTransmissions" or whatever) so that he can get the data/information he needs for the project. He wouldn't be a vendor unless he were selling things, I would think? Plus, its doubtful that moderators have seen the xi section of the forum in months probably.

Thanks for the update- hope to see him here soon.

+1, as long as he is not trying to push a product via marketing etc. but rather a normal guy helping out until he has a product to sell then its probably time for vendor status.

I agree that it's logical that he shouldn't need to pay a vendor fee until he's actually trying to sell something, but sometimes logic has nothing to do with it. I just hoped that maybe somebody here had seen this happen already and knew for sure what the policy was. I could try to get in contact with the forum owner...

Easier to ask for forgiveness than permission. You may be more morally sound than I- but given what I've seen out of the moderators, they seem to prioritize money over forum quality. Your call, being as you know Jack. I'm excited to see what he can do.

In... $25 sent.

And yes, it's very simple to sign up. I used facebook then a direct link to paypal, took me all of 3 minutes.

We can find a transfer case in the $300 range, it doesn't need to be working in pristine condition.
