Guides or how to forum
Keep it locked so people cant post there and the mods can move How to do it guides (like the much discussed Coffee Cup Mod) there. This would give us a central point to look for write ups instead of filtering through x pages of *I installed my coffee cup today* and *How do I install my coffee cup* posts.

I agree. I know there are stickies for these, but still, they can be a bit of a bitch to navigate.
I'd be happy to start collecting the How-To Guides on here into individual documents to be converted to posts/threads.
The locked idea is definitely good. And maybe more in the obvious that the Stuff you need to know forum... its just a weird forum. It seems like more of a "Rules of the Forum" forum than it really is...

Put a list of threads together and we will definitely consider it.
Try to make it a considerable number, like 15-20.

I compiled all the stuff I've installed at the bottom of my build journal thread. I made it more of a here's what I did and why than a "how-to" guide, though.
Sti suspension
Rear swaybar
Modified front struts
20mm front swaybar
ALK install
New Brakes
New Wheels
WRX radio
WRX seats
some worthless wiring upgrade
Hella Supertones
Driving lights part 1
Driving lights part 2
I need to go through some of them and fix broken picture links and I'll add some information too.

I'd rather have a Wiki, to be honest, but getting that and this to sync up is a little tricky.
Either way, having a list of threads with good information in one place will make dumping it all into a Wiki easier, if we end up with one.

I haven't bothered doing anything on the nasioc wiki even though there are a few things I could post.
Maybe a sticky for each subforum with links to various how-tos relating to that subject?
http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthr ... ?t=1430598
seems to keep things from being too cluttered or hard to search through.
Half our stuff would probably be straight from nasioc or scoobymods anyway.

I actually did most of WikiNASIOC's Legacy article, as it was pathetic beforehand.
Stickies are good.
I don't mind taking info from other sources, because it's all cross-pollenated anyways.

I really like the sound of this. I'm always looking through 60+ search results and tons of scrolling for something I know is out there. This could also potentially weed out alot of the mis-information and debates that make things confusing.
Also - if these "How To"s are right there and easy to see, more people will browse it. Hopefully, this could lead to more people doing these mods/fixes and extending the joy/life of our cars.
Perhaps some "How Not To"s for those unfortunate mishaps that we can all learn from.

I would like to see a how to section as well. The "library" on the main page is great, but it's a bit outdated and it's missing some stuff. My contributions:
Crank Pulley Wobble
How to install poly bushings in the rear suspension
How to lower WRX seats in a Legacy
How to make poly rear droplink bushings
I guess the first two aren't pure How To's as there's some discussion, but the last two are!
