Wing Talk
Yea its been covered , but whatever
so i took my wing off a few days ago , and i actually like the way it looks , so i was
thinking of a carbon hatch , and for my stock hatch get some kind of different wing ,
perhaps a gen 1 mugen (yea right , not with ALL YOU vultures
)but what wings use stock mounting holes , ive seen a topic covered on the j's racing , and i believe that it uses stock holes , what about the mugen 1 and 2 ? and are there others as well that im not remembering?
and ill post pics tomorrow after a nice wash ,
and can yall post pics of yer wingless ITR's , and somewith wings that mount in the stock location .
ok so something in this post has to be new , so there
oh and i did the same dumb crap alot of people do , hit the threads , and like an ignorant moron , i hit 3 before i stopped , so if i go back to stock im gonna need a wing ,
actually if anyone has a wing layig around LMK

Re: (Doostur)
honestly , i wanted to SEE what it was like , like a new food .
but my girl now lives with me and has no car , so we share the R ( well i drive her around ) she got this new job and this bitch of a cop pulled me over for no inspection , i diddnt even do anything , just pulled over to let my lady out the car at work , cop said she drove by and saw that my NYS inspection has been up for a few years ( i was living in florida ) so she was like im gonna pull your *** every time i see you till u get an inspection , and that cant happen cuz of mods to the car , so im basically trying to be a little DL , thats what up for now , but still , it looks very , well VIP ish , if you will

You're free to think what ever you like, however, plenty of cars have wings. Terribly inefficient wings, but wings none the less.

No... I think not my friend...
A wing is a surface used to produce lift and therefore flight, for travel in the air or another gaseous medium. The wing shape is usually an airfoil. The first use of the word was for the foremost limbs of birds, but has been extended to include the wings of insects, bats and pterosaurs and also man-made devices.
A wing is a device for generating lift. Its aerodynamic quality is expressed as a Lift-to-drag ratio. The lift generated by a wing at a given speed and angle of attack can be 1-2 orders of magnitude greater then the drag. This means that a significantly smaller thrust force can be applied to propel the wing through the air in order to obtain a specified lift.
A spoiler is an automotive aerodynamic device whose intended design function is to 'spoil' unfavorable air movement across a body of a vehicle of some kind in motion. This can result in improved vehicle stability by decreasing lift that may cause unpredictable handling in a car at speed. Spoilers are often fitted to race and high-performance sports cars, although they have become common on passenger vehicles, as well. Some spoilers are added to cars primarily for styling purposes and have either little aerodynamic benefit or even make the aerodynamics worse.
Spoilers for automobiles are often incorrectly confused with wings

CARS DO NOT HAVE WINGS, PLANES, BIRDS AND THE LIKES DO... CARS DO NOT!

Yeah, because wikipedia is the authority on science. Let me quote a couple of the more relevant comments from your article
"A wing is a surface used to produce lift" and "A wing is a device for generating lift"
A wing doesn't have to produce flight to be considered a wing, it just has to create lift. Flight is a by-product of the wings function, and so is downforce if you flip the wing upside down. A spoiler and a wing are two different things and both are used on cars.
You can bank my two aerospace engineering degrees on that. KTHXBYE

My point is, even if the design can be "flipped" upside down to make another design, those 2 designs are still not the same thing, and don't serve the same function.
Wing = Lift
Spoiler = Downforce or direction of air flow
Sure would suck on track when you really needed some traction out back, yet it took off the ground soaring towards the sky...

Anyway... Jared, back on topic...
Pic yourself a new spoiler. Something nobody on here has. That's my vote!!!

Lift is just a name representing a force. Whether the force is up or down, it's still the same force. Downforce and Lift are the same thing whose name represents direction. And, you're right, a spoiler and a wing are not the same thing, and do not serve the same function. A car can have a spoiler or a wing, or both.

In what sense would a car want lift?
The only, really odd example I can think of is if the aero of the car itself minus spoiler (or in this case wing) provided to much down force (spoiling?) and thus you wanted some lift?
Other than that, why in the world would you want a car, that is ment to be on the ground to have lift?
