cliffdunedin 8 Report post Posted January 18, 2011 FFS guys why does ever second thread need to get turned to sh*t. The OP created a thread about cars with excessive camber (clearly overseas and for show) and everyone needs to start putting their 2c in and saying that the people who do this are "f*#ktards" and stupid. And then you get the personal attacks as well. Its pathetic. Some people like to give their cars excessive camber, some like to extremely low, some like to make them extremely fast. Its their car and their money, they can do what the wish. If you don't like it thats your opinion, it doesn't make you the authority on what people can and can't do. I think the point of the forums are for everyone to voice their opinions on the topic subject, but you're right about the tough internet bravado...any 12 year old kid can talk tough on the net too! Lets talk car sh*t and not just sh*t!? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pjay 8 Report post Posted January 18, 2011 I quite like Oni Camber, it has that big "What the flying f**k factor" to it which I can really appreciate. Personally I wouldn't run that much myself, maybe up to 10 degrees or so maybe a bit more but I would be afraid of ruining a rim and I need to daily drive also. That rabbit was on sale for a while, I don't know how much it went for though. The guy was smashing stuff up on a weekly basis so it's definitely not cheap/easy to pull off.

Apex 693 Report post Posted January 18, 2011 that are worse. This fad won't catch on in NZ as our roads are orsum. ...most of these pictures are centuries old too. I think you will find nothing is new until it has been discussed on Bimmersport. Lol my car goes hunts for road side like a drug dog does a smuggler even with a mere 1.5 degree camber. This thing must be crabbing diving and smashing all over the show. Oh and retract the Japanese culture thing, I do appreciate their food, wine and those women.

Nobimmer 694 Report post Posted January 18, 2011 Not really a huge fan, but a serious question. How do they turn? IE what are the axles like? Universals or? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This thing must be crabbing diving and smashing all over the show. I don't understand? I have over 4 degrees up front and over 2.5 down back and don't have this problem. Racecars run more than 1.5 degrees camber and don't crab all over the track. Do you mean just one wheel is cambered more than the others? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What I call a problem and what you call a problem are probably two very different things mate! Was over exaggerating my point as to how ars that thing must drive. Race cars are not road cars nore race tracks anything like the road, run a race car with its track camber settings on the road and it will drive like crap... but you know this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Top Secret 2 Report post Posted January 18, 2011 Alright, cool your jets. I appreciate most forms of car modification, and oni camber has it's own little clique so it's nearly a game of one-upmanship with who has the most camber. Sure, it looks stupid, but I can assure you these people don't take it near as seriously as you would perceive they would. You need a sense of humour. I like it for the sheer case of ".. what the fuuuck?". Chill Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
