that's direct from Nissan, information based on the "all new" 1995 Nissan 240SX coupe, and 240SX SE coupes...
so let me see... Nissan says the S14 is 50% more rigid, and has a 100% improvement over bend rigidity... then tommy says "that's all bullshit stop reaching"
well fuck, i guess I'll have to pass on a multibillion dollar auto manufacturer, and go with Tommy, Nissan doesn't know what the hell they're talking about, Tommy does... maybe you should stop calling people retarded when you don't even know what the fuck you're talking about.
dan, i would say that a 50% and 100% improvement over a previous model is a substantial improvement... yes, put all the bracing on a S13, and then you'll have probably around the same amount.... then put the same bracing on a S14, and you'll have a substantially improved chassis, well over Nissans rated numbers...
I would say a 345mm tire, with what 120% the section width of a 165mm tire, would be a huge gain, but if you put both on the rear of a car with 90HP, how much better do you expect the acceleration is going to be ?
(hint, marshall will believe marketings claim that it will knock seconds off 0-60mph)
