He said he did it with his 200SX and it felt a lot better. I told him it was his imagination. Does anyone agree with him. Also isnt it illeagal not to have 1?

Also isnt it illeagal not to have 1? it isn't illegal to not have one, it's illegal to have one and it be not road legal (i.e. bald). a few members have removed theirs for ice installs etc and just carry some tyre weld or similar. i'd keep the space saver personally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put it this way, how much slower does your car feel with someone in your passenger seat? (And they'll be loads heavier than a space-saver spare wheel) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorin Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Aren't the space savers all the same whether UK or j-spec? Rolling radius is what matters, it's just to limp home on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucifer Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 They are the same and YES - every weight loss WILL increas your accelration. Remove that and allt eh tools, all your stereo and the rear wing, then go and take a drive down the motorway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
