What do u guys think about this wing??

[chickenmanq]

No no no! &nbsp;It's your duty to frickin' stuff every one of the stupid weedwacker exhaust civics whenever they want to race! &nbsp;ESPECIALLY if it has a huge aluminum wing! &nbsp;Did he have a resonator tip? <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

heh glad i cud make ur day better <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

Yes, I think all spoilers of that type are pretty ricy. IF I ever put a new rear spoiler on my car I'm gona get this bomex one.
anybody think thats ricy?

[ZeroGS14]

Hmmm if I change the Do-Luck wing on my car I'd go with a wing from Hiro...it's hard to find a pic of it since the speedlab.com site went down...but yeah its kinda like that boomex one but better and a little less pronounced.

[240booster]

OK OK OK ... aight ya've had ur fun. 1st thing i really like the look of these wings i think it completes the GT style im goin for plus this is the only &quot;ricey&quot; thing im really goin to put on my car so im allowed one thing :-P. And #### no of course i don't drive around at 150 mph everyday im just doing it for the look isn't that what everyspoiler or ne kind of wing on a car is for, it's just for looks. Plus, That IS A SUBLTE WING, lmao it's only supposed to be like 8 inches tall i think and #### at least it don't hang up there even with the roof line and have 3 wings on it protrudin out everywhere. And when i say subtle, i mean subtle for a wing all u guys have put up there r spoilers i don't want a spoiler. Finally, i guess it's 2 different worlds from where i live and ya'll do. Because down here in alabama people don't even know what &quot;ricey&quot; means cause imports r a smaaallllll minority down here. Neway thanxs for the criticism though LMAO :-P

DSC: Thats the kind of wing I like, I just cant find one I like. The bomex one in the picture hangs off the tail to much. Now I am looking for a wing like that for a s13 coupe.

[BlankFlip]

i agree, that's the only thing i don't like about them, that they hang off the tail 2 much, other than that i think they're pretty cool.

Dayum - my color car does look good with powder coated wheels <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> &nbsp;

As for the spoiler... Height - actually to have a spoiler function on an s14, it needs to be that high to get into clean air. &nbsp;HOWEVER, unless you do some windtunnel testing, all that clean air is more likely to put a dent in your trunk lid than help your high speed stability. &nbsp;BRW: the best thing about multi-wing spoilers is that you can use them to store books. &nbsp;I saw a photo from a rice-arrest type page where they found this car with a GTR wing, stocked it with paperbacks and knick knacks and took a photo (I really wish I would have saved it!).

you guys kill me sometimes some of you dont know you ####### from your face
this is a good looking wing do you reay thing that a 2 pound wing is going to slow you down??
sorry to tell you that it has no efect on the car execpt &nbsp;around 80mph then the wing has a use there is not enouf drag on these wings enought to efect your car &nbsp;in the 1/4 mile the most any of these wings on this topic will slow you down is about 0.004 sec
well i think i can risk that 0.004 slower to have some style to the car

and thats my 4 cents

[Takumi]

Aluminum wings just screams out, &quot;TEH FAST AND TEH FURIEOUS%@^%!!!!111&quot;. Just not my cup of tea. &gt;_&lt;

Gotta love that 180SX Type X wing that zephyr posted.

Easy killer;). &nbsp;First off, I think that the Type X wing and the others were added as examples of nice looking wings that give your car style without looking stupid (The wing at issue is that 8-12 inch high touring car looking thing). &nbsp;I think other fine examples would be the Nismo, small Bomex, or Do-Luck wings (since it IS an s14 we are talking about). &nbsp;The one for the Silvia Aero would be a good choice if you want a functional wing, as it works in clean air - but is too large for some of us.

As for the drag coef., most wings, incl. the factory spoiler and the Nismo version, don't do a #### thing on an s14. &nbsp;Not even 0.0004! &nbsp;That one, however would due to its height. &nbsp;Also, since functional ground effects generally begin to work at speeds of about 50 mph, the driver *may* feel some slight effects. &nbsp;I say this b/c I know people who have built splitters, undertrays, and lips that have made noticeable differences in the feel of the car at highway speeds. &nbsp;And yes, I've actually seen dents in the trunks of Civics from running a wing very similar to this one.

I don't think anyone here is against style and we know that it won't slow us down, but I think we all like to see some level of taste. &nbsp;I think what you said is absolutely accurate, but it seems like you didn't quite get the tone. &nbsp;Just trying to interpret...

[thewholefnshow]

Honestly I woould worry a littel about the downforce that thing creates in offramps... pushing around those at 80 with an downforce would make the front of the car light and squirmy... I kinda like the wing.. very fast and furious, but dunno if I would put one on my car.

[my240likenoother]

i was just tryig to get the point that the wings that was posted on this topic r not at all rice as some people said
and i say yes that the wings that stick off the trunk more than 18&quot; are &nbsp;redicklus and i have seen twisted trunks from it also &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

[kitoro]

wow... that wuz pretty heated.
guess you guys are pretty hard on anything that's remotely 'ricey'

I personally find GT wings to be nice on the silvia/240 and the GTR, those are the only 2 cars (families) which look sweet in the wing.

plus the dude chose the wing obviously to go for a GT look... not to be any crazy rice ornament.
my friend who used to be on this board has a crazy S14 and has a GT wing on it now too... i think it looks even more aggressive than before... it depends on ur taste.
altho 'subtle' isn't the word i'd use to describe the wing tho.

[Takumi]

Well, to be honest, GT style wings usually look fine on larger sports cars with a large amount of rear trunk space. If it's on a CRX, Integra hatchback, or anything with little to no rear trunk space for a wing of that size, then it's frickin' ridiculous.
