I don't care where you live or where you come from but playground language isn't clever or funny. Many toddlers do it- they learn a few rude words and can't stop repeating them and some kids of school age carry on. So, get over it and learn to agree or disagree like grown ups- otherwise go away.________________________________________ New Forum same high quality intellectual debate!Team Zimmer™ |

Cwmcarn? google it I agree Adam, I doubt we push these cars hard enough as they are with road tyres and relatively soft suspension to warrant their fitment, even though people comment they can feel the difference  250-300bhp+ and some mega grippy stiff suspension and tyre setup would likely place a hell of a lot more stress through the turrets. Here's a 306 MAXI  not all of them run one though, but they do have substantial inner wing reinforcements welded in where the PAS reservoir normally sits. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

I felt the difference in my 205, but the shell was fooked in that...Bet you don't tell someone to google Cwmcarn everyday That reinforcement would be to help the engine mount though wouldn't it? Similar to loads of Group A 306/205s i've seen with solid mounts. ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

When you say you put it under a press I'm not sure what you mean.You dont dont need me to tell you that the frame needs to be bolted onto the shell before you can simulate any stress on it.Then I'd of thought to simulate the loads that its under in use you'd have to pull at one side whilst pushing at the the other which would be very hard to do. In my opinion top or bottom strut braces are little more than excess weight.________________________________________ Quote "da g man!"

Admittedly, the guy is an awesome driver, but it just go's to show how well these cars can handle with the right modification's |

The mountings were bolted into the side supports of the press frame, obviously this doesn't flex as much as the front part of the chassis would, but given most of the flex is across the front legs of the subframe the difference is fairly minimal.IIRC there was just over 1.4mm of flex in the front outside leg, about half a mm on the inside leg, the strut brace dropped that to just under 0.4mm on both legs. It doesn't matter so much on a car such as yours as it's so low the load transfer will be lower, and flex will be more even across both legs anyway. In that case, I'd just seam weld the subframe to stiffen both legs and leave it at that, especially if you've got the solid engine mounts in as that will cause the engine block to act as a stressed member. ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

He knows enough about cars to have his own opinion on what works for him, and his car, I'm just stating what I've measured, and felt.________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

It isn't a case of believing or not both have well deserved reputations. Phil is a talented engineer whose work is tested to the limit in hard use- so is crf450 whose setting up of a 6 is objectively top stuff. The answer is I suspect that the build of crf450's car is so good and so stiff that any deflection is within his driving skill to use or overcome-so a pair of braces would add more in weight than in usefulness. His video proves there is nothing he needs in this line. Most people driving cars nearing 10 years old enthusiastically may need some extra chassis stiffness.Good discussion though!! ________________________________________ New Forum same high quality intellectual debate!Team Zimmer™ |
