alryte, i kno this has nothing to do with accords..but i like u guys, and i think this would make a nice conversation..but if ur gon flame, just x the box, no need to waste ur time...while working at safeway, i saw this white scion xb pull in slammed to the ground sitting like 3 inches off the ground, so curiously i asked the guy wut was his setup..turns out he took his springs out and hes rolling on struts...and ofcourse he had a loud *** raspy exhuast, it was probably the loudest exhuast i heard, he was rolling around the parking lot at about 15 MPH and it was louder then ym friend turbo'd EG at WOT and raspy as hell...this is the riciest shyt i seen in a long time, just wunted to share with u guys

wow, rolling on struts....and i thought cutting springs was stupid.

 

oh man i hate those enough as it is then just to find out what kind of idiots drive them......... ::speechlesss::

 

Wait until his struts blow. That'll be priceless

 

if he's rolling on struts wouldn't that **** be dumped? i mean my car is barely 2 inches off the ground and my coilovers are only halfway threw the threading

 

how long would his struts last? i would think not very long.. To bad they didnt go out while he was driving in the parking lot.. that would have been priceless to see

 

there should be no rebound whatsoever. that guy is amazing, pioneering new technology

 

He has enough money to buy an xb and not springs or coilovers? I like my cars dropped but atleast he should of done it the right way.

 

i bought coilovers on ebay for $45 shipped, how could he not have $45, sure they're crappy springs and it's not great to do it without the struts, but it's 10x better than no springs...

 

when i read the post title..i was expecting to read some random **** about some dumb *** who wanted to know how much rice costs at safeway. well i guess i did read up on some dumb *** after all. i wanna see the struts blow out too.

LOL i was thinking the same thing!! man i bet that guy feels every crack on the ground! it shouldn't be too long untill he blows his shocks. running on struts is not only stupid but its freakin dangerous.

 

....lol
Struts and no springs? That is simply a careless setup.... ain't it?!

 

How old was that kid with the Scion. That's typical of some 16 year old kid who just bought his car to do some dumb **** like that....Yeah its gonna be funny when he cruising the Safeway Parking lot and his struts blow out......PRICELESS!!

Nothing more than that car deserves.

 

he cannot just run on strut, the strut have no function when come to supporting the weight of the car, it only control the rebound and bound cycle. You cannot move the car without destroying the whole suspension period.

in other word, maybe he's bluffing or you are.

Ricey xB? there's 99:1 rice to nice ration here in socal.

some riceboy's exhaust louder than your buddy's turbo'ed honda? just in case you dont know, ALL turbo muffler up the exhaust pretty good, it's a big piece of metal with 360degree bent, it's no surprise right?
and we all know noise have little to do with performance.

thank you for sharing but..it's like the daily encounter here
