[23:21] Jeff: all vendors need one big new product idea thread
[23:21] TTR: yes
[23:21] Jeff: for all of you to have a pooled think tank
[23:21] Jeff: everyones ideas and all that then you guys can all pick and choose what parts best suit your production skills
[23:22] TTR: yes that would be very nice
[23:22] Jeff: mention it to dave
[23:23] Jeff: something that will cross all subforums
[23:23] TTR: Be nice to have a "I want this made" section.
[23:24] Jeff: yes that would be good
So what do you guys think?
A place to pull our thoughts together and tell the vendors what we are interested in getting made.
More importantly Dave whats your opinion on this?

Alexis: Dustin, you're ghey, lol. I am better. I have tits, and tits rule all.
^^^^ is a great idea!!
and im not just saying that cause jeffie told me about this 15 minutes ago!! =)
x3
that would be an awesome idea.. and we can pit them against each other for quality and price
I kid I kid... but great idea.
I'm on the fence....

I dont see it hurting the forum once Dave gets a new server.
219whp - I <3 whine
agree. i dont think its worth it either. the servers have enough load on them as is, and we use the performance forum or other forums for that now. plus i can see it turning into this is the problem i had with this part.
i am all for new stuff but...

maybe back in say 2000 it would have been good, but not now.

exactly. what's left to be made for a dead platform that hasn't been made yet? besides, the forums we have now are for the discussion of parts, and they are already divided up for specific areas of the car anyway.
imma chime in here and say i think this is a great idea... yes i know the platform is dead and the number of owners is dwindling but i think if product companies are willing to innovate and members are willing to help them innovate and purchase, we can prolong the inevitable, perhaps encourage new people to go retro and own a J, and this will help for production of parts for the cobalt, which will help in the creation and uprising of gmdelta.com. As we all know as the J's death gets older and older, GM Delta has all the potential to become the flagship of the GME, and having a system such as this in place, it will help secure gmdelta.com a position in the top of the delta body websites, such JBO is and has been for a very long time.
Do it on the delta site then, we dont want it. The process we have works fine.

The process of little to no aftermarket support???? are you serious? *facepalm*
the thought here is to increase aftermarket support, even if this particular idea won't work, any ideas that could increase aftermarket support is a good idea

It is not like we have a huge list of aftermarket company's trying to make us parts. We have JBody company's, or ORG members making us parts, and it is a small group at that. BIG company's if they are going to make us something are going to do it there way, and likely not even come on this site.
Ways to get company's to want to make us stuff? Keep having cars like Fetter's and his Borthers Fire made and seen. Cars like Laverty's old car, Teske's car, etc... We need people to want to buy a J, and I do feel we have people who want to. We need current members showing the car scene what a J properly modded can do, be it track, show whatever.

i hear ya... but i think the point jeffie was trying to make would be for all the current jbody vendors and not the big manufacturers . Such as if we give them suggestions on new innovations for our cars, they can come up with and produce new product. its saves them on R&D, as its basically free R&D and it gets us more products. its win win for everyone...
that's what the technical forums are for anyway, and it's already divided up into specific sections to cover what it needs to.
the performance forum isn't just for people asking which way to tighten the bolt on their new cat back exhaust or asking if a name brand intake will actually give 30 hp like their neighbor's cousin's co-worker's best friend claims it will, it's also an area for ideas to be thrown around and discussed specifically related to performance enhancing mods. same with the boost forum: discussion about forced induction mods. suspension and brake: how to make j's handle better... etc.
why have one more forum that has threads about every single area of the car all jumbled together causing perfectly good ideas to get lost? use the forums we have now. it's what they are there for.

Agree.
Also since most topics have been covered soo many times already, we are seeing less post in the Performance, Boost, Tuning. Let these forums be used for new products so there is some things going on.
