the camry had rice stickers so the guy obviously knew what he was doing. but then it makes you wonder why someone would spend money and time putting stickers all over a car and spending at least 100 bucks on a spoiler to make a point

There's nothing wrong with a wing (except that the one they have is ugly). APR Performance wrote an article about aerodynamics and say that it would be a good idea to have a rear spoiler along with front canards. http://www.aprperformance.com/tech_d...chArticleID=14

...note the conflicting stickers (nismo R, and TRD), excess body work, extra exaust, and above all, the Inital D banner on the windshield.

Why the fvck would you put a 'Got Rice?" sticker on your car? Are you trying to annouce to the world you are are giant douche bag and you needed the sticker to help?

And as for that article detailing the usefullness of wings..

Did you not notice all the pictures of touring cars? You know.. those things with 300-500hp? The ones can can go finish a 1/4 before you even hit 60? Yea, those things.

Here, I will even link them for you.





Putting a wing on your **** box does not help your performance in the slightest. If anything all it does is weaken your performance with added weight and unnecessary drag. So take that damn "Got Rice?" sticker on your car and put that money to something thats actually worthwhile. We dont need another asshat adding to the stereotype that all Hondas/Imports are ricers.

besides, take into consideration "form follows function" if you look at the JGTC cars, vs. street cars, you will NEVER get your daily driver up to the speeds you need to utilize proper downforce. wings and airdams do work better together, but only at high speeds. (and no, 90mph is not a high speed)

^^^^ some argue that canards are only really effective at adding front downforce at well over 100mph...
