[QUOTE=Nekrietns;28304781]That is fucking disgusting, even more so than the GTR. Something I never thought possible.[/QUOTE] ahahahahhaha no Do you realize how much of an achievement the GTR even is?

Bradley has a 99 Civic with Neons and a giant wing. And two 12'' subs and walmart rims.

I have what? o_O

[QUOTE=lemon_lover;28462258]real ricey Bolts & Washers Nick Caster's '88 CRX *List of things*[/QUOTE] Not really a whole lot there that justifies a spoiler though. For a FWD you want to get rid of understeer as much as possible, and that's exactly what a rear spoiler doesn't do. It needs a giant front lip instead of a spoiler.

The only spoilers I really like are duckbills on hatchbacks and CRXs, and the factory Talon and Eclipse spoilers. And those are really cosmetic... I run a luggage rack on the trunk of my Colt. OEM performance, word.

itt fwd cars don't oversteer and don't need downforce everyone drive a gti with hueg swaybar [editline]7th March 2011[/editline] also 90% of the time it's cosmetic, even oem spoilers

ITT: 95% of earth's spoilers are cosmetic. Also on the FWD note, while FWD cars don't need as much downforce on the rear wheels as RWD cars, they do need downforce, otherwise the geometry of the suspension changes due to the back lifting up, and handling suffers.

that and off-power oversteer

But fwds are dumb. I think my spoiler is functional. It points down.

Your spoiler is like a fat neck [img]http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1328/1348835702_3619f51dc0.jpg[/img] Same as [img]http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_images/1/1837/421/4590210002_large.jpg[/img]

I want this kind of Supra. [img]http://www.king-buyer.co.jp/blog/imgaes/20060901/DSCN4055.JPG[/img]

That's a TRD 3000GT Supra. I rode one in black once. That one has VeilSide rims though. [editline]8th March 2011[/editline] They're rare as fuck

They remind me of an elderly person with cataracts.

[QUOTE=MikeL14;28487565]But fwds are dumb. I think my spoiler is functional. It points down.[/QUOTE] There's not [i]that[/i] much difference between a good FWD car and a RWD car. I've driven a Beamer 325i pretty hard round the country roads as well as my Lude and there's not a lot in it. An unsuspecting driver would have to think twice to tell which was which. Only when booting it out of a corner did the back end get happy on the beamer but apart from that they both feel the same round the corners and on the brakes. The Honda Integra Type R would probably give most RWD cars in the same league a run for their money and a good chance of leaving them behind. Obviously a FWD econobox will handle like shit, but so will your average RWD fat American saloon car. I'm not saying FWD is superior, that's not true at all but just saying that too many are too quick to write FWD off. It's only on the track where RWD cars really begin to show.

Not only Supra, this one too. [img]http://www.cartuningpics.com/pics/cars_large/25345_50236.jpg[/img]

I love carwash. It's like i get a new car, and I can't stop looking at it because it's so shiny lol. [img]http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/188762_10150118494564035_624679034_6325881_1237007_n.jpg[/img] blalbhablabhlabla lowering

Ferosso, I love how your civic looks. It's not that "Gotta look low and sporty" thing that everyone wants out of their Civic. I personally think the stance and just overall appeal of the car is quite awesome.

What would a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo 1 be like for a restoration project and how much is the insurance?

[QUOTE=Ferosso;28489847]Yep they do[/QUOTE] I like those things. They make the cars look really nice, and light the road up like the sun. But in a very directional way.
