guys with modified suspensions, do you run strut bars too

[Farbin Kaiber]

Still haven't shown proof that they are the same.


And Carbon boy, who cares who it is that I'm arguing with? Argument is argument, a mod isn't automatically correct because he's a mod.

You call out what I have to say and safety, and you know nothing about said type of design (?lack of real world exp.?) Maybe you haven't been around the block yet, no harm, no foul, but you should stop and assess the issue before looking like an argumentitive asshat. BTW I'd trust a mod with 4 times the amnt of posts you have over you just by plausable exp. To be a mod you gotta know something about said forum. I respect if all you know is just book smarts as it seems from your posts. Get out there in the real world, come back with a new viewpoint. A fresh view can change everything.


And the mod thing was only a razz.

Oh yeah, drop the e-penis thing, that and an animated version of a used blunt condom does not get you a ton of credability.

if you understand the contents of the link I posted, that is all the proof I need to give.

The link you posted made so much sense, thank you Mr. Moderator.

Lol, I have ZERO real world experience. YES. THAT IS THE ANSWER.

No not really. It doesn't say that a hinged bar is the same as a non-hinged bar. Either way, you have your opinion, and I have mine.

I questioned, not accused.

Trust me bro, I have enough experience to have an opinion on the matter. 2 years of tracking, a dozen e30 buildups and projects, dozens of hondurs. I'm the local guy people call when shit fucks up while working on something.

A x-brace on the e30. Where you get that?

"custom made x-brace" Ie I designed and installed it myself. I tried an e36 x-brace but it didn't offer enough ground clearence.

[rs4pro3]

Take a door, a simple door, and pull on it away from the hinge (IE, along the surface of the door). It will give you resistance in the same angle that you are pulling, right? If you push on the door, what happens? You have to use force to keep the door from swinging.

The door swings, because the force is not parallel to the hinges. If you could apply the force in the exact same direction in which you pulled, the door would not move.

i understand what he is refering to and it makes sense. i've never heard of a chasis flexing perfectly in only one direction. That is why spoke wheels are designed to work under tension. if they worked under compression the spokes would have to be considerably thicker. so hinged design is fine for cornering but sucks for bumps which is why they are not used on rally cars.
