That's not going to happen..., they post a lot on Facebook though. Like their page and then you can share stuff here that they post.

Wasn't banned, but from what I remember, he said they were asked not to post anymore unless they got a vendor account. This was back in the fall, people were on both sides of the fence on the topic - some said Crawford was a vendor and should pay for the vendor account, others said they were a manufacturer and just providing information and not trying to push product.

They also got their ass chewed out for posting bad info.

Sounds like the Crawford turbo BRZ is a hoot. Thanks for sharing.

If anyone was curious why Crawford isn't on here anymore.

Posting photos of the FA20 engine obviously wouldn't fall under this, so I do not appreciate the false statement. You were never told to stop posting outright unless you pay for a vendor account.
They haven't logged in since September of last year and they're not banned. So they're probably not coming back.
