I was able to get in on the VIMC action too. That track is a blast! https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...28af4f78_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...5bb9760f_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...aa5de008_b.jpg |
We need to start doing community events. Food bank fundraisers, charity car shows etc and show Cowichan that we’re good people! And get that phase 2 build ASAP https://farm66.staticflickr.com/6553...ffd697f4_b.jpg |

always forget about the grand vitara. how kind of system does it have, 4wd or real-time awd like rav4/crv? |
47:53 rwd bias, can lock it 50/50 4lo uses 2:1 ratio t-case has a neutral mode for flat towing behind a RV |
Open diffs or limited slips? |
only the center locks, otherwise it relies on traction control note they started at 25k back in 06, and in some markets this gen was still sold up to 2018 lol |
I see one around every so often that has a small lift and AT tires that always gets my attention. I didn't realize that they have 4lo, now I'm getting bad ideas lol. |

https://scontent.fyvr3-1.fna.fbcdn.n...06&oe=5FAB84BE really liking this brick so far. added roof basket and replaced the broken grill with a XC cross country grill. looking to add a set of fogs so I can see better at night. Can't see anything at all with this weather nowadays. Have one blown front strut... contemplating on new struts... should I raise the ride height on this thing..... :considered::considered::considered: |

Nice Hytech Ian :fuckyea: |
I’ve always loved your build but I have to ask....does the wing make a difference compared to stock? Only reason I can potentially understand it is because you actually track the car hard and often. Can’t stand these gigantic wings 95% of the time #whatsnext #F7LTHY Quote:

I think honestly the wing wouldn't help... On an AWD car you generally WANT the rear to rotate a bit, and the wing would make it more difficult to do so with the down force, assuming it makes measurable down force at speed. Might be a primarily cosmetic thing. |
Spoilered for those disinterested. Spoiler! |
Based on my absolutely unscientific approach, I'd say the wing helps even on a FWD car. The wing would allow you to run a much looser setup which could be very twitchy at high speeds. The wing would keep the ass planted on high speed sweepers but allow you to have a harder attack on the tight slow stuff. At the expense of top speed of course. |
Wow. I'm actually surprised at the noticable fuel economy increase for daily commuting too. Didn't think wings mattered that much unless in high speeds. |
Slight highway (Ladner to richmond, flow of traffic. City I don’t think you’d notice anything |
I remember running the J's wing on my ITR made a difference on a few of the mid speed parts on the ridge versus the original factory issue stock wing. rear was more stable and felt a bit less nervous. Same tires, same suspension set up. only thing was the spoon lip (which I doubt made a difference on the front, besides the brake duct upgrade) and the J's wing itself. Was running the middle on the angle of attack on that wing. I'm sure these wings have a purpose to a certain extent.. I mean McLaren Senna's wing is a monster of a wing and that car generates a black hole amount of downforce... |
