Cracking down on newbies "claiming" to want to buy parts

This is becoming a trend and it sucks. Its one thing if you post on here looking for info on what mods are available for ours cars, thats cool. But dont waste everyones time with situations like this. example from newb :" I just bought a stock solara and i want to buy this, this , this and this for the car i have the mod bug. Does anyone here have these parts for sale?"

reply from reputable members." Yes i have that part for this much. Another member says yes i have this part that you are looking for as well for this price. Another guy says i have this other part you need"

But the newb never responds to anyone because either they were lying and dont own a solara OR they want all these mods but have no money.

Theres guys on this forum that sells parts and spend lots of time replying to WTB adds and answering questions regarding parts inquiries but nobody ever acutally buys the parts. Man things have changed since solaraguy was peaking with modders back in the day that acutally modded their cars.

Please guys dont post that you want a supercharger if you just got your car and have no money. TRD superchargers are around $2500 used. You are not going to get lucky and find one for $300, just not going to happen.

Again i want to make it clear that its totally cool if you want to get info on parts I acutally enjoy teaching new members about cool mods available for our chassis. But if you dont have the money, instead of saying i am looking to buy this this and this where do i buy it, just ask what mods are available and what is the cost and where can I buy them when the time comes and i do have the money.
