Paul Boz_ posted:That looks perfect and I would not change a thing. The red and gold go perfectly, the wheels are a nice size, and the suspension doesn't look retarded. Good job. I think those wheels are going to rub the gently caress out of the inside of those fenders though, both turning in the front and compression in the rear. Oh well.

Paul Boz_ posted:Maybe slightly in the rear on compression but I think I've got less wheel gap than that in the front and I've never rubbed once. My z32 was even lower and never rubbed either. The front looks perfectly fine. Yeah, with the smaller tires it's not so bad, I suppose. I just had issues with my E30 running 16x8s, but I ran a much wider tire. When I went to a smaller sidewall, it helped, but I still had to roll my rear fenders, and it rubbed at full lock in the front. I guess it just defeats the purpose of having bigger wheels in the first place for me.

In my opinion, the Prius is a great car if you want an appliance. It is not a great car if you enjoy driving cars. After driving one, I understand why people are always driving slowly in front of me in them, it's because the car begs you to drive it slowly.

They seem to be quite reliable, have decent interior space, and get around fairly efficiently. I'd say that's a decent appliance. That's not to say other cars are not a better "green" solution, but I don't think the Prius is a bad car. I definitely have no desire to own one. Maybe we should ask the professor?

veedubfreak posted:Where is the wheelie bar? This car would not be able to move under its own power without tipping over backwards on the first pull and sheering off the fan. I think they're using the fan to propel the car, so maybe it wouldn't tip. It definitely wouldn't be super stable. As far as radials sounding like rear end at idle... I think thats personal preference, but I don't think the 9cyls sound great.

Seat Safety Switch posted:Of particular AI interest is this Mercedes with Twin Tires. This guy was actually one of the Canadian distributors for the invention and he had a handful of new tires for this system and a bunch of wheels left over. This particular wheel was made by Speedline but they also subcontracted to Enkei from what he told us. Is there more information about these? What's the point?

My friend just sent me an e-mail with some interesting photos of an old ladies garage. "I've been trying to look at these cars for about a year. Finally got to see them. The old lady that owns them thinks they are worth more than they are so I probably won't end up buying them, but they were fun to look at. The bus is all original 73 and in pretty nice condition, just a little rust on the body, but everything else is solid. She said someone told her it is worth $15k... The Porsche is a 62 356 super 90 sunroof. Complete, but taken apart. She said $30k. I'm not sure what this one is worth yet, but I have seen much nicer ones in the 30k range. The 81 year old lady said this car gives you a sexual experience when you ride in it."

BlackMK4 posted:How are you measuring his suspension geometry? Because it has some front camber? You want front camber in most cars for track usage in order to get even tire temperature - Alfa guys want -2*+. It looks low because it has flares bolted on. Yeah, it has a shitload of front camber and almost no camber in the rear - it looks pretty well set up. The wheels are really tight fitment with the flares/body as well. The only thing I'd worry about is the wheels rubbing the bodywork.

DoLittle posted:It has a solid rear axle, which tends to prevent excessive rear camber. Typically when I see a "stanced" car it has a shitload of rear camber AND front camber to fit the wheels, which can be a cue that the car isn't quite as set up as the owner would lead you to believe. Obviously with a solid rear, it makes sense that it wouldn't have much for rear camber. The car in question doesn't look too terribly stanced out or terrible. Either way, the example you posted looks loving nice.
