the wing shape itself isn't so bad, it's those 4ft-long legs that kill me... why the hell does anyone want a spoiler deck above the roof of the car?!

It is my understanding that the wing must be of a minimum size and certain height above the tail end to maintain as close to a nonturbulent airflow as possible to maximize the down force attained........Geeze Louise...I hated fluids...what the hell was that? :eek:

i highly doubt fluid dynamics was taken into account when designing rice wings.

I wouldn't put one of those fuck'en things on my car if it was free,long legs or not.but I don't really like rice.

Actually if you took the legs completely off and flush-mounted it by the side pieces, then painted it... then it MIGHT look kind of cool and not ricey as all hell. Kind of like Juan's wing.

Still all I gotta say is NOPI grand touring $120 and it doesn't matter if you can convert a rice wing into something that isn't :gay: as shit...

i like em my self, thats why i got 1......i really dont give a fuck what you have to say about it to. i think its funny how you all say things are "rice" and you all are into imports, it sounds like some thing one of those dumb buttstang driving red necks would say about all of for owning a honda. it was a damn good deal so i thought i would let every 1 know about it. besides i did not get it for looks i got it so when i decide to take a 15mph turn at 60 my car hugs and stays in its lane, they really do help with air flow.

I personaly don't like them, but who the hell cares!!! If you you like it, and if it works like you want it to, more power to ya! It's your car, and if you like it, then f*** what anybody else thinks!

At 60mph, your wing is not generating enough downforce to do much, i don't think.

no the wing works we have done tests with a 3gee and that brand of wing, we could not take the turn at 60 with out 1. i really dont care what any 1 thinks. i just get fed up with every 1 saying shit is rice when they drive a rice car.........heh

first, imports have nothing to do with rice. there's domestic rice as well as import rice. second, we dont care what you do either, we just gave our opinions

i think that rice is a plant that is also a common food. as far as i know, rice and cars are 2 unrelated subjects.

he was jsut reffering to wings in general. at least that's how i took it. but our cars are made of steel. aluminum is better than steel in that it doesn't rust and it is lighter, but no offense, what are you getting at.

yeah after i posted that i thought about it and felt stupid............ haha. well any way i like you all dont fuck it. now ima try to find a way to make this a20a1 faster now. im thinking a20a3 head.

yeah i hate to say it i'm with experimental. i mean rice isnt' about buying big wings. it's the whole package of doing only external mods and not even considering mechanical mods. the showy-ness with out the balls to back it up. experimental doesn't seem to be the rice-boy tho. he's talking about downforce and speedy turns. so i'm with ya bro. i've considered getting a wing there. i have to admit the price is right. i probably won't tho but send us pics of your install.

i can't stand those understated touring wings. you pay $600 for them and ppl still think it's some stock option... so go with makes ya happy. don't worry about what some ppl say.

Having a wing such as that for downforce is pointless in a front-wheel drive vehicle. :rolleyes:

Actually, downforce will help to stabalize a fwd car out, but you'd have to be going really fast. And if it really has that much downforce, wouldn't it slow the car down?

see i do a bit of drift style racing in the boonies with my boys, and since they have installed wings they have been able to take very sharp turns at much higher speeds then with out it. i did get for some style but more importantly for the fuction, thats why i went with a dual plane style.

all my other friends with accords, mainly 4th and 5gens, talk about their back ends sliding all the time. i can't get mine to slide no matter what i do. even before i put on these bigger tires.

sorry boys, i really don't think big spoilers make a bit of performance difference at least on our cars,not fast enough to matter.and FWD,so any of you that think your car is going to make faster times w/ BIG wing, your the ones keeping those companys in buisness.

thank you GRANT2K,you are definatly NOT a RICECAR DRIVER.

Experimental_Honda
11-01-2002, 08:19 AM
so i guess you are saying im a rice driver huh? well come to lexington some time and i will show you whats up, i will take you out in the counrty on some little 2 lane roads and see if can keep up, wing or no wing. i never said it was gonna make my car faster!!! i said i could take turns faster.

WOAH............ok, since everyone is getting all tense, i'd just like to say that i like big wings, i had a scorpion on my old 3g and if you want to say its rice, go ahead. But regardless of a big wing being "rice" or not, a wing doesn't do much untill a vehicle hits high speeds. I saw a tv show once about a Porsche 911 with one of the "whale-tail" spoilers that automatically raised itself up (from a flush position with the rest of the ass of the car) at a certain speed....that speed was 100mph. i think Porsche knows what they are talking about. So, Experimental_Honda, i don't want to piss you off anymore, but i think that whole "better handling around corners at 60mph" is all in yer head.

............im done fighting about a wing man, there is no point. i am gonna spend more time trying to learn how to make my car faster.

89lxi95zx7
11-05-2002, 12:10 PM
slow?apparently you havn't ridden one. Your Honda must be alot faster with that big gay,ricey spoiler on it.I'll race you w/ my ninja for any amount you can come up with.(probably about $10.00) Anyway,your going to need a taller spoiler if you think you can keep up with me,bitch.

Experimental_Honda
11-05-2002, 05:05 PM
i have been on 1 i didnt like em, i like my dads ninja 900 and my friends 02 cbr f4i 600 alot more, the cbr starts to redline at 14. its a tight bike fuel injected all the way my dads 900 cant even touch the mother fucker.

Experimental_Honda
11-05-2002, 05:09 PM
once i finsh my site there will be pics of the bikes and all the cars i roll with so that way you all are not like he is full of shit blah blah blah. and most of have big "ricey"(as you all call em) wings on them, my car maybe slow but my friends cars on the other hand are not i would like to see you try and take them in your accord.

11-06-2002, 05:11 AM
you talk shit on my bike and then brag up your dads and friends shit?you are a dumbass.Well I ride w/ hyabusas w/ turbos & ducatis but thats beside the point.get a bike,race me,then talk shit.untill then,shut the fuck up.

ps,f4 is a beginner bike.

Experimental_Honda
11-06-2002, 07:28 PM
its a f4i its injected unlike my dads ninja and yours. the bike is fuckin fast its up there with the hyabusa, its 2nd to it hits 100 faster as well but the top is not as high. i will race on my dads ninja it may as well be mine he never rides it. look man im no longer looking for a fight.........sorry for baging on your shit so lets drop all this and keep the peace. you all can call me what ever you want seeing as how you will never meet me in real life and typing insults is pretty much pointless.
