Message I think I broke the tt.net matrix ! – Below is the logic to describe who is a “noob” and the descriptors associated with the more advanced tt.net signons which can be found in our profiles. Enjoy !

Disclaimer – None of this is confirmed !

Stock - ( Noob )
Has probably figured out what a POP charger is but doesn't know what color to paint his/her calipers yet. Is beginning to dominate conversations with limited Z knowledge, but only to non-Z friends

Stage 1 - 5,000 hits
Has probably now installed a POP charger and knows how to use Search but largely ignores it because it's easier to post a question for the 1,000th time. Still doesn't know what the suction cups are for. Will not advance to Stage III until he/she demonstrates the successful use of the Search function

Stage 2 - 10,000 hits
The top of the bell curve. Likely actually has a Stage III or higher Z. Comfortable with all aspects of the site and lends help whenever possible. Argues the finer points of useless Z32 trivia ad nauseum

Stage 3 - 30,000 hits
Serious addiction has set in after the leap from Stage III. Phone calls will be rarely returned now unless its to confirm payment for the latest group buy

Stage 4 - 50,000 hits
Changes clutches on Zs just for the fun of it. Free (non-tt.NET) time now spent on other car boards trying to start flame wars. Orders lots of delivery pizza rather than leave the computer

Stage 5 - 75,000 hits
Money spent on mods likely exceeds actual cost of Z. Idea of vacation is travelling to other cities to hang out with local tt.NET members

Stage 6 - 90,000 hits
Money spent on mods likely exceeds actual cost of Z. Idea of vacation is travelling to other cities to hang out with local tt.NET members

Stage 7 – a lot of hits
Spends more time at work on tt.NET than actually working. Considers girlfriend to be any female member of tt.NET that he has posted a reply to at least twice

Stage 8 – a lot of hits
Can probably pull and tear down a VG30DExx engine blindfolded in less than 3 hours. This member is definitely a force to be reckoned with. Spends 23 hrs per day on the forum with the other hour dedicated to looking at a non-functional Z in the garage

Stage 9 – a lot of hits
Mere mortals can never hope to achieve this level. An OC3 line has actually been intravenously inserted in the back of the skull with the browser hardwired to the TwinTurbo.NET home page.

"... Installing the ES bushing was a huge pain for me because it's so stiff. I like the way it feels once installed, but if I had to do it over again, I'd get the OEM ... it's soft enough to flex right into place ".... 300ZMang on May 05, 2005 at 10:47 AM
