just a simple question about it.. what parts of the car does it hurt? like tires, cv joints, etc.

and no i dont do it all the time. but a buddy of mines do it all the time

 

what kind of car?

front drive or rear drive

i assume front drive but who knows

 

One wheeled civic burnouts are the fooking hotness dude. Tell your buddy he's a douchebag.

But FWIW, when you pop your clutch to break the tires loose you're putting a lot of shock on your entire drive train. You figure out what you're tearing up.

 

^ what he said. its not your car. let your friend(s) find out the hard way.

 

well i think everybodys guilty of doing this one way or the other, but i just want to know like whats being damaged when you do this. i done it too, but not as much, and im sure everyone does.

 

ah its all good!!! just hurt your tires and a little bit of your clutch. it hurts when you start running lsd and use slicks. bye bye axles bye bye clutch.

Don't be so sure, not everyone is that stupid.

 

Ive seen a transmission completely destoryed due to a burn out gone wrong.

So it could damage something from 5 dollar part to 500 dollar part.

 

ditto,

Normally the axle's or cv joints will break first. But it also hurts the clutch if its not ment to take such a beating.

Ive also seen differentals litterly explode out of the casings from the same thing so anything from the tires to the spark plugs can go bad.

 

Shocks get in on the action too, especially on FWDs where "burnouts" usually equal wheel hop.

 

i did a "burnout" if you can even call it.... and it started bouncing so bad that my dash looked like it was gonna fall off.

guess thats what they call "wheel hop"

havent done one since, and wont either.

 

just dont do it and u wont break anything.

 

i hope you're smart enough to at least wet your tires a little.
you can break the little teeth on axles and eventually axels can just slip out of the trans. its a pretty sweet ******* deal to see. makes it a lot easier when dumb kids bring their cars into me for fixing...

do you have directional cut tires?
that makes it a tiny bit easier to break loose.
but you're eventually going to expletive everything up.
then youll end up dumping a ton of money into your car and selling it for something else thats fast and furious enough to smoke the tires... yeah, thatll be sweet. woohoo!

 

yah i always thought people did it to be cool or whatever
"hey look i can make my tires spin and screetch" great, how hard's that? plus, its not going to do anything good for your car, so why do it? it also attracts police attention

Exactly. I read a thread about this awhile ago.

 

dont forget about broken pressure plates.

 

oh yea, doesnt launching your car = same abuse to the car as a burnout? since the most hurting time to a car is popping the clutch, it hurts the cv joints, tranny, clutch, pressure plate, etc. and once the wheels spin during the burnout, its not as harmful since there is no traction? correct me if im wrong

You're trying to justify being gay on the street by doing burnouts with your buddy. Classic.

 

I've never had the desire to do a burnout. Hell, I don't even know how to do one.

 

my friend did one when it was really cold fucked up the transmission

Easy. With the clutch in, rev car to redline, let it bounce off the rev limiter for AT LEAST 30 seconds and then pop the clutch out. After 2 seconds put the clutch back in and pop it back out. The whole time you have to keep your foot on the gas though. Never quit bouncing off that limiter.

Ahh Haa Haa It's even better if you disable your limiter.

True. But most people can't handle all that power after the stock rev limiter. It should actually be called "the true ultimate power disguiser". Honda didn't want their cars to fall into the sports car category, so they put the limiter there to keep the power of their engines (especially the DOHC models) down. It's a well known fact in the underground tuning community that you'll start seeing some serious uncontrolable wheel spin on a B16 without limiter starting about 18,000 RPM. This is why honda keeps the limiter at 8,200 on these monsters.

I thought it was a little known fact. Oh well. Nevertheless, a very true statement .

Keep reading. It's a well know fact in the underground tuner community. Not so well known to everyday tuners. Only the underground ones that street race illegally and do burnouts really know about the B16's true 18,300 RPM redline.
