Questionable modifications: pictures inside!

It's the best of both worlds.
Although you could just get a crew cab pickup and seat the same amount of people... And go faster... And be more safe.

Is this questionable enough.....View attachment 114708

All the utility! And all of the ****ty driving characteristics!

I don't see anything wrong with that.

Too low

All show

 

[Gotbeefboy564]

Sure it's low but it's not the worst mustang I've seen.

 

[Sage Ages]

Why do a lot of cars have the rear wheel archs lower than the front? Looks weird.

But it's not that far either honestly

I've never really noticed this.

 

[Sage Ages]

I've never really noticed this.

Check the clearence between the wheels and the fender. It's more noticeable on lowered cars.

Annoys the hell out of me.

 

[Slash]

Hmm. Yeah never noticed. Wonder when that took off.

Have you never heard of Form > Function?

 

[Sage Ages]

Exactly. Not enough form.

As far as the wheel arches go, it may also be an optical illusion when the beltline rises towards the rear of the vehicle.

The wheel clearence says otherwise.

FRS/BRZ/86 is the only one that really suffers from it. With the Mustang for example it's the bodyline, as many are.

 

[AlvaroF]

I remember when I was playing with 3DTuning, when lowering the car, every single one stayed lower in the back than in the front

It's really obvious on a lowered s13.

 

[Bo]

Nope, body line. Rear end is supposed to be higher than the front.

 

[The Stig Farmer]

Isn't that Mustang on airbags?

 

[Bo]

Yarr, it is.

 

[The Stig Farmer]

So it can easily be reverted to normal with the push of a button?

 

[ImaRobot]

I've noticed this for quite some time now IRL. Even my friends s13 when the height is fully lowered, the front is still slightly higher then the back.

I wonder if it has to do with the placement of the engine. I dont know anything about suspension so dont hold me to that haha.

 

[ildd]

Even my car suffers from the rear arch being lower...

(not questionable, just example)

I don't know anything about suspension/geometry either, but have often thought that too (regarding engine placement, stiffer and high suspension travel etc). I also think it may have something to do with the fact that the front wheels need to turn (clearance reasons), though i haven't checked to see whether that runs true with 'ATTESA' and 'HICAS' 4 wheel steer cars.


Probably is just a styling thing though.

Exactly what I was about to say. Because the front wheels do the turning (or the majority of it at least, for cars with 4-wheel steering), so they would need more clearance in the arch. If they were the same, and you happened to go over some sort of bump (for lack of a better word) in the road while the wheels are turned, you'd most likely rub on the typical contact patch for the tire (hope that makes sense).

It's definitely due to the fact that the front wheels have to turn. I'm really surprised you're the first to realise this. Lol.

No, lol.
