Things Dodge did before it was trendy

[FearThe4Doors]

The 'proud to be american' sticker on that lebaron

really high wings (super birds)

"Z3" fender louvers.. on an 85 New Yorker (or something)

factory turbo cars

DIS in 91 (ronda started doing it in 2000)


(add to the list)

[CrazyMoparGirl]

Chargers had louvres on the fenders back in the 70's sheesh how could you forget that? Performance $ banger FWD cars in the 80's

[FearThe4Doors]

cudas did too..

i saw a new yorker today and thunk of it. It would be better to show one of them to a ricer than a charger or cuda though... LOL

[rb70383]

Ground effects - GLH

[FearThe4Doors]

also the "body kit" on the 89 CSX

[FearThe4Doors]

black hoods (T/A Challenger & AAR Cuda)

[CrazyMoparGirl]

Underated HP on engines

[rb70383]

body color bumpers? on the Cuda. That elastometric? bumper

[CrazyMoparGirl]

building their own performance vehicles instead of shipping them of to Yenko, but thats domestically

[leadfootedfool]

i agree about the muscle cars but, ye csx has a shelby title. Why do people go what the hell when I register the car??

[leadfootedfool]

Oh sorry, didn't mean to mess up the post.

Not sure, but i think they created the space saver spare.

[rb70383]

Damn that was back in the 70's also. It was such a hit they made em standard on Hondas.

[FearThe4Doors]

lol, yep, they came with 4 space saver spares... pre-installed!

[mpbiv]

How about equal length half shafts on FWD cars :D

[leadfootedfool]

Oh man is that a crock of crap. The csx has them and that thing torque steers like a..a.. um.....well something that torque steers really bad.

Imagine how bad it would be without that :D

I like the one about how they put a washer under the passenger side engine mount to help reduce torque steer.

[rb70383]

Lori also told me that they did clear lenses. I forgot all about that. Our 67 Coronet, 73 Duster, 77 Van, and Our Power Wagons (74-75) all have clear corner lenses.

Shawns 69 firebird has some funky poly shit front end around the front grill that was body color and supposedly sledge hammer dent resistant.

Honda has had those for a long time as well.

I won't say 70's cuz I don't know for sure, but at least as early as the 80's.

Thats right I remeber that. Hence the question marks. Couldn't remember another car off hand. BTW how is his car? Or has it taken the backseat to his new toy?Hmmmm I think Pontiac was the first for body color bumpers!??!

[BIG_Truck_Driver]

eh, it's not really back seat to the 91, but money is tight and he has some issues with it that are taking some time to sort out.

I want him to put it on the dyno to figure out what's up with his a/f.

[rb70383]

Cool. What do you think hwe is running hp wise? He ever do any body work yet? :lol:

[BIG_Truck_Driver]

no body work yet, it's very necessary now, rust is eating all the way through in some spots.

he was supposedly over 400hp on the old 400 block, used the same heads and comparable cam on the 468 block also bumped up the compression to 10.5:1, which we are thinking is too high. traction is a serious issue in 1st and 2nd, 3rd slips too much if he gets on it, so we are going to swap in a 4 spd when he gets the parts needed.

Ok, as far as Honda is concerned, equal length half shafts with an intermediate shaft debuted in the 86 civic wagon awd.

[leadfootedfool]

Same with the shadow, they have equal length half shafts but the intermediate shaft can lick my balls.

[CrazyMoparGirl]

85 GLH equal length

[leadfootedfool]

when was the first k car? didn't that have equal length halfshafts?

[CrazyMoparGirl]

not the non turbo's

Actually, quite a few HiPo turbo dodge guys are running the UNequal length axles with no huge problems. I think they're about the same... b/c my spirit with equals torque steers like a bitch

I like the one about how they put a washer under the passenger side engine mount to help reduce torque steer.

Dodge did that from the factory on all turbo cars

non turbo's didnt, and not all turbos did either. (My Spirit didnt have them stock). I think mostly 5-spd turbos.

Yip my Shadow has them also. It is the 5-speed Turbo. No not tranny either, a 5 speed turbo. yip you read it write. :lol: Actually is a 5-speed tranny and Turbo, Turbo is used to pressurize air to release the tranny for the clutch. It takes alot of air to move the tranny back enough to disengage the input shaft splines on the axles so the wheels are disengaged to ease up on the torque so my N2O assited shifters can move the tranny over into 2nd gear. But since all my linkages isnt hooked up i just start with 12 inch tall tires for first and when I want second I get out and move up to 22 inch front tires, for second. Then since i have a close ratio 3rd gear the tires are only 27 inch tall. I love my overdrive, I get great gas mileage with my 44 inch swamppers on the front. 120MPH at a RCH above idle speed.

I think they did the little in car recycle air thing. It was the first car I'd seen it on anyway, my grandpa got one of the very first intrepids and we pulled behind a garbage truck, he presses the button and presto no stinky air in the car!

[leadfootedfool]

But on the other hand if the person in the passenger seat farts alot, it spreads through the car much faster.

Daytonas/Superbirds did over 200 mph on the track and could do it on the roads, thats why they had the big wings, see I do know something about something I'll never have.

Back to the topic, 67 Dodge A100 vans had a dash that resembles many of todays ricer wings
