As you may have noticed: there is a new icon on the top menu and it looks like this:

Forum RSS

The RSS feed itself has been on the forum for ages now, but the subscription stats show not too many people are actually using this feature yet. So we thought it would be better to bring this little feature to your attention through adding it to the top menu. Smile

We have three feeds in total:
1. Frontpage feed
2. Forum feed
3. Twitter feed

Q: Why should I use this?
A: Well, for starters you can add our RSS feed to your iGoogle, live bookmarks or even to your Outlook mail reader! This way you can always read our latest posts directly when they are published and react faster on your favorite topics! Smile

If you are still unsure what RSS is or how to use it, then you can find a very good explanation about it here:

2008 has almost gone, x-mas is coming up and we're on the verge of moving on to the next year! Cheerleader

What has happened during the last year? Well, we'll try to give you some of the high and lowlights of 2008. We'll also try to describe it a bit with numbers.

First of all, the high and lowlights on AEU86:
- AEU86 shop has stopped due to several reasons. BTW: we still have some very interesting parts in the shop!
- Mux moved to Australia and found a great job! Smile

- Now neither admin owns a hachi. Crying or Very sad

- We got a new main moderator: DJexor! Cheerleader

- We're on twitter now!
- Our traffic increased both in uniques, pageviews, hits and data traffic! Smile

Some high and lowlights in the hachi world:
- Ian.G finished his project after three years!
- HachiRoku.com.au started a blog about the Hachi Roku! Thumbsup

- AE86Drivingclub did a makeover on their site!
- ToyotaPowered is the new name of Club4AC
- Some rounds in several drift championships were won by hachis, however their number in competitions is still decreasing.
- A F20/S2000 AE86 kit became available, so this conversion becomes much easier now! Thumbsup

- Only one hachi (Eric O'Sullivan) made it to the Red Bull Drifting World Championship, however that was an amazing achievement if you look at the competition! Worship

- The successor of the AE86 has been postponed: declining sales made Subaru and Toyota to decide not to release the car before 2012. Crying or Very sad

About our traffic increase:
According to Google we had a 40% increase in uniques and a 7% increase in pageviews. In our own measurments we had an increase of 67% of uniques, a decrease in pageviews while the amount of hits increased with 2% and datatraffic increased with 20%. That probably means more people hotlink our images, but we don't really mind: the 135GB is still far under what we're allowed to do per month. Bring on those pics! Cool

Then the big question will be: what will 2009 hopefully bring us?
- 3S conversion kit Puh

- AZ6 bellhousing Cheerleader

- 5AG conversion kit by Tomei
- AEU86 video? Blonde question

- The confirmation of the Toyota/Subaru successor of the AE86 actually will be released in 2012? Embarassed

Last impression of the Toyota FR (successor of the AE86)

For now: AEU86 wishes you a merry x-mas and a happy new year! Thumbsup

There are some problems with the domain registrar of aeu86.org and the domain may not available from everywhere. So when you read this now you probably don't have this problem... Wink

We can't do anything about this problem since it is probably a dos on the registrar since yesterday afternoon. Some people already have access now.

I think this will probably last for 24 hours since the start.
