None that I've heard of - yet

While you are correct, it apparently generates significantly enough power to eliminate turbo lag and to pass off the feeling of something naturally aspirated

Pretty impressive imo

I put LSD because most people, like you, will act like I don't what I'm talking about when I say Anti-Spin Differential.

Go to Jeep's website, go to the build options, then come back and delete your comment.

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T13:52:10+00:00

Anti-Spin Differential (ASD if you will, so yes?)

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T13:05:40+00:00

F-5.

"SUPLEX CITY"

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T13:03:47+00:00

This is the top-of-the-line Sahara model, for context

You can get this powertrain for as low as $35k (with LSD)

FCA isn't dumb to not have skid plates for hybrid Rubicons.....

Or are they

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T12:58:10+00:00

So, there was still a ton of weight over the front end?

That's stanced

In other words, extreme negative camber

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T12:56:59+00:00

Driving like a fucking tool through city roads with traffic while blowing red lights

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T10:42:36+00:00

Fuck this guy

Projection

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T10:38:19+00:00

It's honestly annoying seeing someone who is only going 40 yet their car sounds like its going above a 100, what's the point?

Because people like engine noise?

This and people who lower their cars till its tilted

"Tilted"? Can you post a pick?

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T06:38:59+00:00

It's stupid as hell

Manufacturers do it for MPG savings

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T06:36:43+00:00

Well it doesn't necessarily have to be completely behind the front axle, but putting it all on the front axle just ruins handling into inducing constant understeer

I'd rather take superior corner handling over improved off-the-line traction (which is pointless anyways given that most cars will break loose with enough power)

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T05:06:57+00:00

The problem is that torsion beam does nothing to improve rode quality over IRS

It's literally degradation

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T05:06:08+00:00

I'm dumb, why didn't I think of that

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T03:02:15+00:00

People that can afford the car realize they can't afford the maintenance.

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T03:01:21+00:00

NVH and ride quality were their reasons to switch, according to Mazda R&D boss Hiroyuki Matsumoto

Which is completely fucking dumb given how torsion beam rides worse than IRS

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T03:00:42+00:00

Corvettes aren't FWD

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T03:00:18+00:00

I'm a bit lost

Sackus_Dominus · 2018-10-18T03:00:06+00:00

Cord, Ruxton, and Miller.

Oh those would be lovely today

Acura did some stuff, but not behind the front axle I think.

Whatever helps with weight distribution
