:iagree:

:yawn: <= wedsusa

Need to source these out and give them a try.

Ha ha, I was reading the list and was like :icon14:. I thought the mud and construction finally got to you and you lost it... :icon17:

I actually had my VDC on at the time. It certainly contributed to the situation.

hahaha, hi, mr.gale. :D

yah, it almost appeared as if the dump trucks were out starting to pave the asphalt with their paving machines and rollers this am, but not yet. :ugh2:

damn, it hope they fix this by tomorrow... :eekdance:

yah, that's another thing to watch out for when changing suspension setting. unless your car is planted with good sticky tires, it makes the VDC all confused. especially if you were expecting to turn the car with throttle... :icon14:

Yeah, I'd imagine VDC would encourage understeer. When I stepped on the throttle I was prepared for the back to go out but wanted to see if VDC would let it happen and sure enough, it did. Regained control pretty quickly but realised I really don't like the unpredictability VDC adds. Also adds confidence to people not prepaired for sh*t to go wrong.

Something to think about... How many of us grew up driving rear wheel drive vs. front wheel drive? I got my license driving a RWD car :tup:

I went FW, AW, FW, RW

started out FF, then AWD (hello mega understeer wrx), and landed RWD. :tup:

I started with RWD. Had a FWD car for a while when I was doing a lot of commuting.

first car was FWD and now I have RWD & FWD

I went:

RW
RW
RW
RW
RW
RW
RW
FW
RW
RW
RW
RW
RW
RW
RW
FW (Wife's Juke)

Something like that.

:happydance:

RW, RW, FW, RW, RW, RW, RW :tup:

i owned 4 cars simultaneously sometimes so i cant put in sequence... :ugh2:

hummm... alex no worky. he either fell a sleep at his desk :yawn: or wedsusa fell asleep at their desk :yawn: or ..... :confused:

now checking another store if i can source the 2 weds... hummm....

I'm going to do many of you a favor:
1. Go to User CP
2. Go to Options
3. Scroll down and change to 40 posts per page.
4. Profit

lol you forgot the "???" step

what's this for?

yah, i tried it but didn't change anything from default... :confused:

I have owned a lot of everything. First car was a 1984 300zx, lame but when I was 17 I thought I was the sh1t. Learned how to drive stick and in snow the first few months having my licence since my bday is in December.

I've owned alot of cars in my life time, and every single one was RWD, one was rear engined and the rest front engine.

I've driven FWD cars and when push comes to shove, I know how to deal with RWD in a pinch. FWD I only know in theory. Keep those wheels spinning.

This old dog is not looking to learn a new trick, but with automatics and AWD becoming the way of the world, I may be forced to learn anyways.

i think all the stores went to :yawn: zzzzz....

the heck is going on here? :mad:

i think i can squeeze one more MT fun car before this sad day comes. :)

Please excuse the off-topic nature of this post, but I felt like sharing something with you all.

Colin, my first son and onzedge wannabe, got his then girlfriend and now fiancé in a family way back in December. They told us in January the big news that they are expecting -- with a due date of September 8. After congratulations and hugs went around the room, I asked him "how did this happen?". I caught myself just as the last words exited my dense skull. Anyway, I digress.

Today they discovered the gender and I am going to have a granddaughter. Hmm. With my other son Taylor (techfracture), also a gearhead and Z car fanatic, Colin, and me as role models, the possibilities of what she will become as a person make my head swim. Anyway, her name shall be Faye Allen Clark. Everyone nixed "Katayama", which was one of my suggestions.

Well. There you go.

mr.onzedge- congrats to your future granddaughter! :tup:

:iagree: Big :tup::tup::tup:

hummm... so it looks like it *might* rain tomorrow... shall i wash my G tonight or shall i wait till Sat...

that is the question.

just got word that tirerack is no longer handling weds wheels. :crying: but alex is making effort to see if he can get his buyer to source me the pair... :p

Good Afternoon Mr.Alchemy, Mr.happytheman, Mr.OFCGaleForce, Mr.m4a1steve, Mr.onzedge, Mr.ZMan8, Mr.gurneyeagle, Mr.JARblue, Mr.EasyD and holy-cow too many buds in here my fingers are falling off on the keyboard...... :bowrofl:

Good Afternoon Mr.kenchan!!

Such a busy day in the lab and I was reading posts from you guys and pages keep adding up.. LOL


It is very funny that a lot of manufactures setup the FWD car so it can turn in and reduce understeer and for those RWD manufactures they try to induce understeer therefore easier/safer to drive..... :confused:

:icon17:

Congrats, sir!!

Wash tonight so you get it out of your system!

It's good to be productive, though!


And while I have you 3 fans. here [and all the rest of you], happy 1,000 posts to me!

hello, mr.alcheng! :tup: yah, honestly some of the best handling cars out there are FF... like my old modded cooper-s and even the Fit i had that had coilovers, etc. would handle the turns faster if downhill touge than the Z. :) once you start adding power (uphill touge) to FF it just understeers terribly even with lsd. hahahaha. :icon17:

good call! i shall wash tonight. :p

congrats on the 1K post :tup:

You are about to hit 16,000 :shakes head:
