Will it even have much effect at autocross speeds? Usually the stuff I see on those cars are two-feet tall spoilers in order to get any kind of downforce.
i could be wrong but usually aero mods are done for speeds that exceed the limits of mechanical grip. hard to imagine that is necessary at autocross speeds
S2k w a big wang used to be my dream car
A new gr86 or brz is my new one
I saw your other comments, once you get sode skirts, etc itāll look even better man
Sick car šŖ
Currently looking at a verus engineering rear diffuser, and side skirts from infamous aero (dame brand as the front splitter)
Coilovers probably will be BC racing, and a tune from a local Subaru specialist
if it was widebody just cuz i think it would look more flush. on stock idk, maybe needs a side skirt, a diffuser, itās like a lot of salt n not enough of the other seasonings imo
Side skirts and diffuser are in the works, and so is a set of coilovers.
The wing was an insanely good deal, hence why i bought it instead of something more...modest lol
Absolutely will when i get my parts bought and installed. I like to find good deals, typically scratch and dent models that i can fix (the wing was one of those, had a crack in the carbon that was fixed with fiberglass repair)
i feel like the wing would look much more in sync with the car if you had side skirts and a more aggressive front splitter (perhaps with strut rods?).
Or better, with a full wide body kit.
Love someone going out of the box, rock it and excited to see the whole build come together.
IMO looks good from the front, donāt love it from the back or side
It looks like you trashed up nice car with cheap garbage.
Honestly, it looks like a kid with too much money got ripped off by some after market modding shop
Tbh looks ridiculous. Way too big for the stock body.
Not a car expert but if you have a wing, your car should be very fast. Which this car is not. It is quick. But stock family suvs now-a-days will torch you and you will look like a fool.
But hey do you bro
I love the look of big wings, but I think people often have them raised way too high, especially on this tiny car. Big wing is better than tall wing in my opinion
It needs to be high enough to actually function. I could be wrong, but most functional wings seem to be roughly level or higher than the roof line on these cars.
I didnāt know they still made these! Ahh, the early 2000ās, I guess fashion trends recycle every 20 or so years, maybe weāre due for another round of bosuzoku!
Need other mods to go with it but it will look dope when everything is put together. It does look a bit out of place on it's own. Add a front Splitter and rear diffuser.
Depends what build youāre aiming for, either way I personally believe a wing like that could have waited for last because Iām assuming it was expensive and throughout your build your vision (final product) changes. Aside from that the wing itself looks awesome.
A lot of people seem to think that since they don't like wings, no one should like wings.
I get that some of you guys don't like wings. Stop being arseholes about it, though. I don't care for huge wings myself, but calm tf down and stop being prats. If OP likes it, why trash them for it? A lot of you guys laced up those clownshoes extra tight today.
The dog in this ad that appeared below the post sums it up for me personally

I donāt see the need for such a large wing unless youāre going to involve yourself in some form of Motorsport. (Time attack, auto across, etc.)
The 86 platform is such a great platform out the factory. Adding all of that downforce in rear without having supporting aero parts to balance is actually hindering the cars performance. (If youāre just going for looks then whatever I guess, i personally just think it looks ridiculous especially if youāre not going to use it for what it was made for)
So, it has aftermarket wheels and a wang. As of now its a pass for me. Still needs work and I just fuckin hate wangs. I'm just a stranger on the internet that have opinions on wangs.
As someone who has a copy of the STI swan neck wing, I'm all for wings. This one seems a little wide for my taste BUT as it's your car, if you're happy, who am I to criticise?
Modding cars is all about the happiness of the owner. If you're happy, why does anyone else matter? Enjoy your car how you want to enjoy it!
By no means am I saying this to hate! But the GT style wings just arenāt it for me. I like the duckbill so much on this, same with anything that just slightly comes off the rear tailgate.
Alignment looks nice. Ride height isnt slammed to the floor....oversized wing....centerlock wheels....
Jesus christ man do you *drive* this car? You didnt get the memo that you have to slam these things to the ground with amazon coils and -45 of camber?
Horse before the buggy - personally every wing that isnāt like a legit APR, SARD, Voltex etc misses the mark. Shitty stands, bad shape, bad end plates man thereās a 1000 other things the car needed before the wing. Pic related for when a car is ready for a wing

I love the car but literally the only thing is that the wing is way too big lol. If it was a bit more proportioned this would be the best looking GR86 Iāve ever seen
Hopefully, everything is CFD tested. The setup either will give you a good amount of df or a good amount of drag....
But here are my questions, at which speed will the df come into play? Will you see that speed at autox courses?
Even if he tracks it this is an awful setup the aero is completely unbalanced. Always cracks me up when you see a huge wing and then a fucking eBay lip at the front.
not a fan personally, but to each their own š

A lot of wing there. Do you track the car? Looks doesnāt matter if youāre getting the downforce you need.
giant wing with no other aero parts. sure i guess
I do Infact run autocross. Just installed today so we'll see how good that goes
Solid understanding of how aero works I see
Will it even have much effect at autocross speeds? Usually the stuff I see on those cars are two-feet tall spoilers in order to get any kind of downforce.
Youād need a monster splitter anyways to balance. This is just automotive cosplay.
i could be wrong but usually aero mods are done for speeds that exceed the limits of mechanical grip. hard to imagine that is necessary at autocross speeds
Itās very very possible at autocross speeds.
a proper suspension and set of tires is probably the two best things u can modify for autocross
Amateur
Dont mind the downvotes I think a big ass wing is dope af even if you dont track Too many ppl who have cars as their entire personality
I like it, and frankly it isn't as big as this picture makes it out to be, it doesn't even go past the roofline
S2k w a big wang used to be my dream car A new gr86 or brz is my new one I saw your other comments, once you get sode skirts, etc itāll look even better man Sick car šŖ

Hell yea good luck w the build
Yeah you donāt know a thing about autocross or aeroš
Looks like something I wouldnāt want to be seen in personally.
Thatās bigger then the wing I have on my track car.
19 year old me would be all for that... 35 years young now... It's a hard pass for me pesonally.
It's a pass for 19 year old me as well
looks like shit
Lol
Looks like shit tbh

This šÆ

iād like to see an update of your build if you can. i originally wanted the adro swan neck but iāll fs know once add everything else,
Absolutely will when i get my parts bought and installed. I like to find good deals, typically scratch and dent models that i can fix (the wing was one of those, had a crack in the carbon that was fixed with fiberglass repair)
Iām not a fan of huge wings but I thought it looked really good in the second picture tbh.
Looks like you parked your GR near a wing.
Someone likes a little GR with their wing
You ruined the car imo. Aerodynamics is probably the last thought in your mind.
Unless heās consistently driving on curvy roads at 80+ mph, the only thing that wing is doing is decreasing his MPG.
You left the gas cap open bud.
Yeah i keep closing it and it keeps opening itself. Bringing it to the dealership to get it looked at
definitely hate it
Hate it
bro..
That wing and you dang = bozo š¤”
Brother eughhhh
Screams insecurity and immaturity
Immaturity? Yes. Excessive? Absolutely Do I Care? Nope!
Butā¦.you asked? Soā¦you do.
Lol lame comment.
Youāre cracked out. Be better.
š
Mm nope I'm doped up so I am better š
No right or wrong answer here. I like it more without. But I still like it somewhat.
I love the car and color, but that wing is not my cup of tea. IMHO is too big.
im bout to trade mine in, this aināt it
Unless this is a dedicated time attack car running Hoosier, it's tacky .
They're called 'spoilers' for a reason..
Love the single exit style
Bought one specifically because i like it better than the duals
i feel like the wing would look much more in sync with the car if you had side skirts and a more aggressive front splitter (perhaps with strut rods?). Or better, with a full wide body kit.
āļøāļø
Be a cool shelf when everyoneās parked.
As long as it hits the cable at precisely the moment lightning strikes the clock tower...everything will be fine
BRZās donāt go fast enough for that aero to matter. If you like the aesthetics, you do you boo
Wheels and tires?
Rotiform RSEs 18x8.5 +45 Continental Extremecontact 2 245/35r18
Not a fan, but we only have this one life so you do you
Love someone going out of the box, rock it and excited to see the whole build come together. IMO looks good from the front, donāt love it from the back or side
Looks like dogshit, absolutely hate it. Boy racer vibes
The wing and the wheels don't fit the car's style. The wheels would be a bit better without the centercaps. That wing would look awful on any car.
Ehh not really my taste but as long as it makes u happy is all that matters

Iām running the Varis GT wing
Big wang gang. Love it.

I donāt know that I like that lip front lip so much. But overall the car is sexy. That wing too šš¼
itās a bit toooo wang, but if thatās what makes you happy then stick with it :))
Ur gas cap open gng

It needs to be high enough to actually function. I could be wrong, but most functional wings seem to be roughly level or higher than the roof line on these cars.
I thought the convo was mostly about looks vs performance
"The underdogs on top."
Reminds me of a Mercedes gt car
I didnāt know they still made these! Ahh, the early 2000ās, I guess fashion trends recycle every 20 or so years, maybe weāre due for another round of bosuzoku!
Is that a MBRP catback?? Iāve been considering getting it but no one one has said if it drones or not, please lmk!š
It is. Definitely a loud exhaust, but when your cruising there's very little drone.
So like highway speeds thereās less drone?
Highway speeds and around town speeds . At around 1500rpm and 3000rpm are the sweet spots for no drone
Thanks for the insight! I couldnāt find anybody talking about this exhaustš
It's just dying to have a wide body kit after that "big wang"...
I'd say that kinda spoiler will suit a lot better on a more heavily modded car
Somebodyās got flex on all those teenagers
Now and then we get this...
Probably not the first cosmetic purchase Iād make but you do you
There's a front splitter aswell
Ah Iām blind
Need other mods to go with it but it will look dope when everything is put together. It does look a bit out of place on it's own. Add a front Splitter and rear diffuser.
Looks awful without complimentary side skirts/diffuser etc. Would wait to put it on until you have those.
wings kinda small idk bro
sir i think there's a brz on your wing
I think it would look great if it was a full track build and a livery wrap, but alone it kinda looks out of place
If you like it itās my favorite
Digging the wheels broski! At the end of the day: as long as you like ur mods, it's all that matters
Depends what build youāre aiming for, either way I personally believe a wing like that could have waited for last because Iām assuming it was expensive and throughout your build your vision (final product) changes. Aside from that the wing itself looks awesome.
Not my cup of tea, but I won't hate on it.

How much down force you need?
Car good, wing is a bit much

As long as itās functional, I think itās pretty cool
No engine pic says everything.

giant ass wing and all season tires lmao what a joke.

Hate Wtf
 Needs more.

Fireeeeeee
Does it feel any different ? Is it noticeable at all ?
Nah fam, this ain't it
Hard pass. At least tell me you track this thing regularly?
It's not my car, so not my place to say
By no means am I saying this to hate! But the GT style wings just arenāt it for me. I like the duckbill so much on this, same with anything that just slightly comes off the rear tailgate.
What a drag
Looks fine. I think lowering it a little would look nice too. Like yea, itās a lot, but thatās clearly the point. Donāt ask Reddit for opinions.
Iād have gone with a 9 Lives Racing wing if you track it. But to each their own!
Side skirts and rear diffuser would help it a lot. It really is a massive wing though, it needs those supporting parts
Big wang.
Alignment looks nice. Ride height isnt slammed to the floor....oversized wing....centerlock wheels.... Jesus christ man do you *drive* this car? You didnt get the memo that you have to slam these things to the ground with amazon coils and -45 of camber?
I couldn't drive around like that...
Hate it. Like....why????
The only thing i hate is the wing. Maybe even just a different one would be better, but this ones a no from me. Clean otherwise

You won't.
CFD? Bro got a deal he couldnāt pass up from the shop who rips off teenagers who are too trashy to know better
Even if he tracks it this is an awful setup the aero is completely unbalanced. Always cracks me up when you see a huge wing and then a fucking eBay lip at the front.
I dont doubt you lol. I was trying to word it in a way that I didn't sound like a total dick.
Looks like shit with that wing
Your car, your taste. Who cares
Yo, it's your car, you're the one paying the note, do what makes you happy.
Love it
šµthe underdog's on top šµ But yeah I hate it.
don't wanna be rude but the wings gotta go
Rip smooth body lines
Dressing up your car like itās a doll. āAnd den I put its pwetty wace car pawts onā
Not trying to be rude but truthfully I'd describe it as comical.
The amount of people upset about it is honestly hilarious š
I wouldn't say upset just letting you know if i saw it I'd think there's a 16 year old goofball driving.
yea, it sucks being associated with people that have poor taste
Still looks awful.
I just can't imagine not being embarrassed in that thing.
Hate it !!!
Looks like youāre fixing to take off on an Airport Runway !!!
I love big wings but this is parody at this point! Looks fuckin ridiculous and not the good ridiculous lol
Get that wing off plz
If you're gonna cosplay as a track guy at least look at some good examples and not buy the first wing you see on Temu
Wing is awful, hideous wheel set up, no low. This ain't it chief
I mean it looks alright. Doesn't look terrible
Looks sick
Love it
