Best SPOILER?
 
I
know sideskirts, front lips, rear wings, and spoilers look nice and all, but I am pondering which to get. I am concerned about the spoiler right now. The streets around my city are too fuqqed up to drive with a body kit, so I'm thinking of replacing my stock rubber spoiler = )


Are there any spoilers out there that have proven tests (dynos/windtunnel) to reduce the drag coefficient?

Which spoilers do you have? Any links/pics?

1987RX7guy 07-17-03 03:02 PM

If you have the SPORT spoiler sell it to me. :)

I personally say the stock ones are best but the wings west one don't look too much like RICE.

Well, the sport black rubber bumper that is on your car right now acctually does a great job of lowering your drag

I have the turbo/gtu wing from a 1989+, it looks great, and i'm sure does something with drag... right?

"Get a big aluminum wing that sits as high as your roof line... that'll lower drag lol"

I think there was a thread on the GTU wing where ICEMARK said that it makes more down force but creats more drag.

Anyways I am willing to pay a reasonable price if it is the SPORT wing you have right now and don't want. :)

Relisys190 07-17-03 03:11 PM

lol, santiago, your 87 sport doesnt have the rubber spoiler?

hurrmm, odd

-Markus

1987RX7guy 07-17-03 03:12 PM

it does. I just want another one. :)

OH and if you have the other SPORT aero package parts please PM me for me to take them off your hands.

Best spoiler is really an opinion. You won't notice any performance improvement I'm sure. Best one IMO:

Anything that adds downforce is more than likely going to add aero drag. Personally I prefer the S5 GTU spoiler, thats what I have on my car. I also like the Kaminari wing too.

Freaky Monkey007 07-17-03 03:35 PM

Yes at the speeds most people will be travlin drag/downforce is not really a factor. So get which ever one you like the best.

I like the factory ones, without it the end of the car seems to abrupt after the hatch window.

I'm not sure what it is, but you can find it at Cork Sport!

Dltreezan 07-17-03 04:28 PM

get it from corksport

Liquid Anarchy 07-17-03 04:30 PM

oh AZ-Tech boy, you might want to consider making the Sport Spoiler. I know there's a call for it

1987RX7guy 07-17-03 04:38 PM

That was my intent. :)

veo614 07-17-03 06:46 PM

hi! thanks for all the input!
about my rubber spoiler... I'm not taking it off just yet! I won't get a new spoiler until probably half a year or a year. Sorry! But as soon as I take it off, I'll sell it to you mad cheap. Thanks again.

Any other spoilers out there?

1987RX7guy 07-17-03 06:47 PM

There are plenty. Check out all the vendors sites.

Let me know when you take it off. :D

JerryLH3 07-17-03 06:49 PM

Santiago, check your PMs.

1987RX7guy 07-17-03 06:55 PM

Thats actually a copy Corksport made of the RE Amemiya spoiler. The original can be found on rx7.com still I believe.

Ryde _Or_Die 07-17-03 10:10 PM
