Gladman finally paints his KA-T! *Pics*

you know antonio, you and I were lovers once… you may not remember your drunken humping frenzy but it happened :smiley:

Now that you’re calm why the hell did you start talking about my car having expensive parts, you never explained that. 5zigen, megan racing and bings aren’t expensive :smiley:

LoL, that was you? I’m pretty sure I was just randomly walking by haha. On another note, holy shit, I used to be fat as hell!

And the rich thing was pretty much entirely the RB25. They’re not really on the affordable side of the scale.

RB25?! I wish. What are you smoking?

… You don’t have an RB25 being swapped into your car? Then why is there a thread about you swapping it in with pictures of it?

It’s an RB20

and…

:hsugh:

:squintfinger:

Come to the track bitch :rabbit:

^^ Which is cheaper to purchase than an SR. Theres a bit more work involved in getting it in though which makes it about equal to the cost of swapping an SR

I saw RB25… haha my bad.

Lucky tried to tell me my motor was an RB25, that’s where you saw it ;]

Like I said, the change on the bearing forces is pretty minimal by comparison to that on the studs, but it’s not the same… I suppose I should have skimmed a little better :slight_smile:

Glad I could help…

First problem is rim companys design their wheels differently, and with different widths and offsets of each rims they can also be designed differently.

So everyone in here is actually wrong.

Easiest way to look at this is at extremmes.

The rim on the left, one like in jammins avatar, where the face of the rim never changes, and they just sink in the middle.

On the right, something like a 2 piece rim where they move the center, creating less or more dish.

Both rims the same size, with the same offset. If there is a force pushing up on the bottom of the rim, which one will apply more force to the hub??

i have no idea what you just tried to draw

Think of it as two rims with like, - 50 offset

No one in here is wrong, everyone just assumed the same basic wheel.

Everyone assumed the 2 piece.

Adding the flush face wheel would have just added to the confusion…

I really don’t think Jammin1911 did. Look at the rims he has.

LoL
Yea, the 2 piece wheel would induce less stress, not only on the suspension, but on the wheel itself, I guess that’s why they can make them lighter.

its not too bad :slight_smile:

i dont get it, why does a 2 piece wheel put less stress on the suspension?

maybe i dont even know what a 2-piece wheel is :x - what a noob i am

I’m not too sure what a 2-piece wheel is either, but if it is how AppleSauce drew it, the wheel with more dish will have a lower stress on itself since the extension will be shorter to achieve the same offset.

my wheels are 2 peice…look at them next time.

Andrew.

i know what a 2-piece wheel is really… i mean - you can just remove the spokes and hub from the actual rim of the wheel, right?

so… how does that affect the performance or physics of it? by attaching it you are essentially turning it in to a 1-piece, no?
