Bert_w164 Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Hi, This isn't really a crawler specific, or even model specific, its more about finding wheels for that specific look/style. I'm going for Jay-Z big pim......, so want chrome spinners (doesn't have to be chromed, or even metal, plastic is fine) but they must have a bit that's spinny spin spin so that stance look. I don't care if it ruins the cars handling, for handling queen I have other cars, this one just needs to look big pim with its glittery purple pink paint, chrome spinning wheels, and may be some crazy neon lighting down the road if I can be bothered... Just to give an idea of what I'm after: https://tenor.com/VzOe.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m4inbrain Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Why would you turn a decent looking crawler into a donk? Gonna squat it too? Might be a case for whistlindiesel coming up here. 🤨 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to a crawlers meet, the track was cool, the people were nice, their cars were nice but I just didn't get it. It just doesn't compute in my brain, to stand there trying to climb over stuff slowly when you can just apply speed and go to infinity and beyond... So now this DC1 will be big pim.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you've just inspired me. I legit watch US power diesel challenges, definitely big stance is the way forward. Baby shark stickers arriving today for the doors, so this is gonna be a really odd build. On one hand it's to appease a 2 year old, and on the other hand it's to appease my humour to continue being a part of the fleet. I'm sure anyone who knows me knew me buying a crawler wouldn't end well, or with any sensible or logical outcome. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bert_w164 Posted October 24, 2022 Author Share Posted October 24, 2022 Are you trying to accuse me of ruining a perfectly good crawler? 😳 I'm merely improving it and giving it function in terms of fashion.

m4inbrain Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Not in a million years lol. The Golf doesn't even sound bad (in GTE mode), no idea why people are so opposed to the sound aktuator. It's of course "enhanced" sound, but i couldn't care less. I can appreciate a good engine sound (especially inline 5 and 6, as well as V8 and 10 - even four bangers), but i take the economy over "real sound" any day of the week 😄 I actually am quite fond of electric sounds as well, the Taycan sounds amazing - and the new Hellcat, despite being kind of blasphemous, sounds pretty good too. You can even "rev" it, lol. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the more commercial offerings Uber drivers use are really nice, torquey and have a nice sound note. I just like the name Shonky and his plug in V8 sound maker. I'll mail you one for Xmas 🤗 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4inbrain Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Lolz, i guess i'll plug one of them whistles into the exhaust too, for sututu noises. Or what those people think a sututu sounds like (for clarification, those whistles sound like a chihuahua squeaky fart). In fact, on the topic of spinners - my wife is still after the spinning hub caps for the GTE (the emblem in the centre of the wheel not spinning when driving). Working hard to prevent that. 😄 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could attempt fitting an Audi pop and fart noise thing with flames to the back, just need to make sure not to set the car or other crawlers on fire, hmmm 🤔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
