Active spoiler on an 86
 
Just thought I'd post this, I had never seen this spoiler before. Not sure it does much but it sure is impressive:

The mechanical creaking/groaning upon open and close really ties everything together.

Idk,it looks kinda weird. I would've been more impressed if it popped up like a Veyron's spoiler.

Extensive wind tunnel testing and airflow dynamic studies have determined it is most effective and provides the greatest amount of downforce when hard parked at the boba shop.

is this the same guy that ran the nurburg spoiler, then the gt-r spoiler, then adapted the gt-r spoiler to be variable-height?

Possibly maybe.

I think you’re talking about the ez30r swapped 86, in which case this doesn’t seem to be it.

i wasn't aware of his motor swap, but the last video was definitely the spoiler i was thinking of.

This is not the same car or even the same model engine but pure race sounding. Because, it's a RACE CAR!

They do sound good and performance is to be had with them, especially since they did make a turbo version. I'm mostly just poking fun.
