well i have a couple buddy that are ghetto as hell with hatchis (ae86 toyota corrola) some of them are sweet, but anyways i have one in particular that rolls on choped springs all stock except for a few motor upgrades(exhaust, intake, pullys, ect) he has spacers on his with some work equipts.
ok dont get me wrong i dont think there the best idea, BUT, if you buy some decent ones, and they not to wide i really dont think you have anything to worry about,
whytf would you cut springs in an ae86? There have to be a million coilover options for those cars.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall. Torque is how far the wall moves after you hit it.
oh yeah, don't forget that in theory, wider rear track = more oversteer.
haha, yeah belive me i wasent for it when he choped his springs, but he is a cheapo kid that barley has enough money for a candy bar. but yes there are sevral options out there, JIC, TIEN, ECT. oh well
he picked the wrong car to be cheap on... aren't those like $2k for an "OK" condition rolling chassis?
**** initial D and the generation it spawned.

lmao. haha
The rears shouldn't be too bad cuz it's a torsion beam and the pivot is not in line with the axle. So yes, moving the wheel out will still move the tire away from the pivot point, but because it's not in line, the effect will be a lot less.Originally Posted by aveogyrl
Just to crunch a few number cuz I have no idea what the real values are, say the distance from the pivot to the axle centerline is 40 cm along the swingarm, and the distance from the tire centerpoint to the swingarm is 20 cm. That puts the tire centerpoint to pivot distance at around 45 cm. Now increase the tire centerpoint to swingarm distance 2.5 cm out. That increases the tire centerpoint to swingarm distance only 1 cm more. So going from a 12.5% increase in distance from tire centerpoint to swingarm only results in a 3% increase in distance from tire to pivot point.
