Dont let 2tcornot2tc bug you, he has made his case in other topics on these forums that he is quite edumacated on everything, and is an expert at everything, and that everyone else is dumber than he is.

 

Speaking of rims, I want to get trd springs with 19's or keep 18 but was wondering how much harsher the ride is.

 

Good thing that is not "The Price is Right"...I do exaggerate to make a point.

BTW, I'm not your enemy.

почему по русски?

 

All you have to do, is show us all that I'm wrong... I just don't speak up like the rest of you if I don't know something. And there is a big difference between what I think and what I know.

 

You could share your knowledge without being an ___ and shoving oh I'm an engineer I'm everyone's face I'm always right c'mon man

 

If you ask, I'll answer politely. If you tell us BS, I'll feed it right back to you. Don't be a jack@$$ and post false information. ASK! Since I am an engineer, I understand significantly more mechanical stuff than most people. If false engineering information is posted, I will question the poster of his engineering background. Again, if you don't know (not think), ask! The false statement made here, is that aluminum breaks before it bends...that is BS!

 

I can see your point but there's gotta be a better approach lol and your right aluminum bends but it's hard to bend I've bad several sets of aluminum rims and never had one bend even with Curb rash

 

There we go again...would you like to restate your comment in the form of a question before I lay into you on the difficulty of bending aluminum? Again, what you think and what you know...

Just about every piece of aluminum on that airplane example I gave earlier is bent or formed in some way to make the shape it is in...and it is done all over the world...how difficult can it be? Post forming processes make it hard... be specific about the aluminum you are talking about.

 

There is a big difference between tissue paper and construction paper…although both are paper. If you use tissue paper where construction paper needed to be, I think you can figure out your results – same thing about aluminums. Aircraft grade aluminums are significantly different from recycled aluminum. The problem is that most people can tell the difference between tissue paper and construction paper. On the other hand, there are very few people that can tell the difference between aircraft grade aluminum and recycled aluminum. Unscrupulous manufacturers take advantage of this fact. Life is a b!tch when you’re not an engineer, trying to survive in a technical field like automotive or aerospace. Do you begin to picture why all the F-1 teams hire so many engineers?

BTW, the floor pan in my Lotus is made from recycled aluminum…which is fine there…and cheap.

 

You obviously do not have a filter when it comes to politeness. Let me be very clear, just because someone isn't an engineer doesn't automatically mean that you know more "mechanical stuff" than they do. Please hop off of the high horse and treat people who know less with more respect. I sure as hell dont know as much as I'd like to about cars and I'm a Junior in Electrical Engineering.

This isn't the 2tCornot2tC lecture series, its a forum.

One last thing, maybe try to change your picture from a random ___ girl in fish nets because it just makes you look like a douche.

 

OK genius...then why didn't you correct this misinformation?

 

I think we should just start a sticky where people can argue about how much smarter/dumber they are than others... I hate reading ridiculous statements bashing on someone else... Especially when it goes on and on and has nothing to do with the topic at hand

But hey I'm just a bartender what do I know... Other than the fact that I thoroughly enjoy working on and driving my tC

 

I always thought that was a cool job...too bad I never got a bar tending license. That was always one of my fascinations. Maybe still...one of these days...

Hey! I'm not bashing other professions. Do you pretend to be an engineer? How do you feel when a shoe salesman tells you how to mix drinks? I bet you just think to yourself...what an @$$ hole! Well, that is what I come right out and say to anybody that makes wrong engineering calls...that have no business making such statements.

 

you guys are adorable....
