Oh Hai gais
eva since i put a rear strut brace in my ae71 i notice it would creek and make odd sounds alot.
So i went down to the D2 store and picked up a strutbrace with Adjustable Damper!

is this a joke?
cos doesnt that just defeat the purpose of having a strut brace in the first place?

Is this a joke.
Whats the point? I thought stiffness was the result you were looking for with bracing?
Why not just take it out if you want it to flex around?

i dont think its a joke
im sure a lot of science has gone into tuning the resonant frequency's of the chassis.
and as we know. ketos are stiffer than hachis, so there would be a different version for each car obviously.
uleh.
/end sarcasm.

ketos are stiffer than hachis.
NO WAI!!!!!! AE86 is waaay stiffer coz they have like all the 1337 drift skillz!!!
and they are just a better allrounded racing car for anything they ever wanted to do in them and even they raced it around the rings on jupiter and even with no gravity it still beat everyone coz of its best handling over the ke70
are these the only chromies wheels you can buy in 4 stuf or something. the amount of s13, r31 and N/A skylines that have them in sydney is redickolass
So i went down to the D2 store]
D2 doesn't have a store :) haha

Is it an actual product? i know there are some retarded things coming out of china, but this is pushing it a bit!
For it to work properly, they'd need a spring+damper on each end right? :worried:

Bahahahaha.
Yeah sure. Whatever.
Seriously, think about it.
For it to work properly, the damper should go somewhere damping is needed.

i dont think there is any more dampening needed in this thread thats for sure.

haha, wow some people are inventive

It's because the chromies aren't bit enough.
If you look the the brace picture, wouldn't it flex at the join before the dampener?

i call for a wasteland section so this stuff can just be hidden from the main page.
marvis
2nd March 2009, 08:26 PM
I think it's fine. It's like right at the bottom of the main page on the forums.

i dont mean the section page, i mean the fact that it keeps popping up on the recent threads page
every time someone bumps it like this.

I have found my GZE engine to be MUCH quieter with the rare dTWO coilover rods, Dulls the shock from the piston to crank force considerably, very hard to hear it even running now.
Knowing "All products are tested by 2 machines and paid race teams to meet our dickest quality and farcical standards" gives me a warm feeling. I want to get the dTWO brakes as they are 6 spot and purple so they must pull you up like your life depended on it.
