Go outside and figure it out for yourself. It's quite simple. No I didn't flame you but this is one of the most pointless "mods" (if you can call it that) to your car.

Swift has got some mighty capable projects cookin...93rps13, you might want to use caution before spouting off about some honda you don't own outperforming a car you've never seen.

If you want to remove a windshield wiper from your car, that's your business. Do whatcha like, but a wiper modification does not elevate a car's handling prowess, nor does it improve acceleration/braking/response, and hence, is looked down upon by many performance enthusiasts, who prefer substance over perceived style.

Actually....having a single wiper conversion helps you to reduce weight somewhat

Post by **Tino** » Sat Jul 19, 2003 2:04 pm

not to mention a reduction in wind resistance.

How does a wiper placed more in the flow of air over a windshield reducing wind resistance?

Do what you want with your car, however tasteless others might find it, but don't try to justify it with "faulty science."

Single windshield conversion = less visibility and increased wind resistance

Post by **93RPS13** » Sat Jul 19, 2003 2:04 pm

i thought it over and i proably wouldnt do it because it wouldnt work as good and mostly likly work really slow, which would probly be worse than stock

Post by **89240sx** » Sat Jul 19, 2003 2:04 pm

whoa first of all your an idiot if you actually thought I was serious, second, properly setup your visibilty will be fine enough to drive even in a downpour.

I'm not sure but I think he was speaking more generally and not directed at your comment Tino... but he can correct me if I'm wrong

because when i read that I didnt think it was directed at anyone.

Do a search for "wiper" - There's been a VERY comprehensive thread on how to do this already.

The search button is your friend.

Even though you're not doing it anymore, and even though it is your car, let me just reinforce something : its ghey.

I think you guys scared him...

Post by **93RPS13** » Sat Jul 19, 2003 2:04 pm

hell no i just really thought it over and did seem practical

Post by **I H8 UR DSM** » Sat Jul 19, 2003 2:04 pm

well now you can obviously tell we are trying to help and just against you doing it.....but to increase your general knowledge of cars, i guess we can tell you....if you took off both wipers, and just use the bolt on the passenger side (the one closest to the middle of the window), and were you mount the wiper (the position), is going to be recognized as the 'down' position, so whatever angle you put it on, is where it will stop when down.....so lets say you use a 35degree angle, the wiper will start there, and go over to the passenger side bottom, then back to that point...know what i mean?
