I agree with you, and this guy is a idiot.. I retract my t-bone comment and make it a crash period. I imagined him hitting a pot hole on 285 and the car breaking in half. lol.
looks good. people are bagging on the welding but really, how safe are you in any compact car in a severe crash? I say worry about getting right with your favorite God and hope for the best.
N/A>>><<<BOOST
I never mentioned the actual welds or skills he has welding, I'm complaining about WHERE he welded the car together at. There's a reason Honda didn't weld it there in the first place. This won't take a severe crash to seriously injure or kill those inside.
I am seriously about to cut a parts car in half, re-weld it together, and do a 30mph crash test into a wall...real talk..I will prove my statements, hell if any of you want to weld it to be sure the welds are good, be my guest.
First of all, i go to tech, so don't give me crap about my schooling.
as for the plate example you gave, there are all different types of bonds, different glues, some glue doesn't work on some material.
anyhow, in this case if the weld was done properly there's no problem. by properly i mean that if the weld was controlled and cooled at a certain rate (which a good welder can do, and i'm not saying this guy is a good welder b/c i don't know him) the grain boundary of the new metal (the welds) would be the same as the original grain boundary of the car metal. In this case it would have the same structural strength as before. The smaller the grain boundary, the more brittle, the larger the the grain boundaries the softer the material is. (I know that introducing new material into different metals can affect the softness and brittleness of it as well, but i don't think that's the case here) a good welder will know what kind of cooling rate certain metals need in order for the weld to not be too soft or too brittle. They will also know what kind of material they are working with.
I guarantee you that if this is done properly (said it now for the millionth time) that it will be just fine.
Now i just saw that this guy is using a mig welder, a tig would be ideal for the best control over the weld so i'll give you that one.
My whole point though is that this can be done, and it can be just as safe as before if its done properly, i'm not trying to sound like an ass, if i did my b.
what year are you in ME?
It might be a little late to mention, but you know your steering wheel is on the wrong side now?
there is no proper way to do this. this is beyond unsafe. and is considered an illegal repair. (obviously not done by a shop so he's the one reliable)
this car will explode when hit hard enough. you never ever ever ever butt weld something like that together. there are several layers of structure there. and i will guarantee all 3 of those layers did not get penetrated properly. if i even thought about doing something like this, i would at least stagger my cuts and use some backing plates to splice this in. and not to mention im sure these welds have been ground down and the areas around the welds have been ground down. thus creating and even weaker point.
hopefully when this car falls apart it wont be around me.
lol
You're just another IA E-thug who thinks they know everything about cars.
jesus you're such an idiot, and you probably went to wyotech to you moron.REPS for being sooo smart...ehhh its like trying to teach a fish to walk.
you're so hard headed and think you're soo smart.
welds are stronger than the metal itself, its gonna take just as much force as before to break this car in half, again if the welds are done properly. if you have welded before like this and what you made failed, its because you didn't do a good job welding it.
and just so you know i'm majoring in mechanical engineering as well.
GA Tech? If so, you have heard the BIG bills due to huge fuck ups Tech students have caused for Atlanta in the past? GA Tech lololol
Please list this huge bill that they have aquired.
Keep laughing, but tell me why do all of these major companies in the US start GA tech students out with such huge salaries, and put them in manager positions. I'm sure you're soo much smarter than all of these companies, you should tell them to stop hiring these tech students who cause huge fuck ups.
and where do you go to school, might i ask?
LOL, I will get info on that bill later. I was told the story by GA Tech Alumni.
As for the companies it doesnt really matter. Look at the shit hole economy we are in due to Harvard, Yale, Stanford , etc. graduates.
I wasn't saying that your car is shit or anything, bc I honestly wouldn't know until it is proven when your done and if somebody wrecks it. Just a UGA guy laughing it up at Tech. No hard feelings.
UF > UGA
LOL If it is about football I couldn't care less.
I couldn't tell you a players name on either team, fuck that pansy sport.
lol dont look like you know what you are doing....and if you think your right, your wrong sir..
buy my nike sb's and supras........check my threads.....
The funny thing about it is that there tons of front clip swap done all the time and ive seen 2 that have been hit and nothing happen. But since he is showing how he is doing it eveeryone wants to talk about safety. Like riding on slammed ebay coilovers bouncing over 285 with blown factory struts is any safers, Cut springs or home depot roll cages, non DOT race harnesses, r the tons of other unsafe stuff i see every first thursday of a month, LMFAO.

Damn. Good point.

yeah, hmmmmmm okay.
thanks for the unnecessary comment
thanks for the unnecessary comment
har har har
you made a joke.
so im going to do 90-100mph everyday all day?
thanks for the unnecessary comment
i can get my mails with out getting out of the car and still be on the right side of the street.
but i'll will see you on the other side of checker!!!
and you do because drive a honda accord?
no?
no ketchup, lettuce, and tomato
and can i get fries with that?
Because you've made so many separate posts to quote people who posted versus just one post, you proved you have no clue what you're doing and your car will drive sideways and split in half if you hit a speed bump.
Have you ever seen any crash test videos or done any research on how vehicles are designed? They dont just make them whatever way they want and throw some welds out there where they think they might need to go. Cars have strong points and weak points in order to properly absorb an impact in a way that will keep the passenger as safe as possible. If any company cut corners when building a car they would never make it to the streets.
He has created a weak point in the cars structure where there was not one before. If this thing were to get into an accident it would more than likely break in half.
I like my RHD but haven't been through checkers yet
so im going to do 90-100mph everyday all day?Did I say anything like that? ....nope
Hey just for future reference so you dont spend so much time quoting each individual post....the button with the "+" on it next to "quote" is the multi-quote option. Click that for each post you wish to include....when you get ready to reply....click the quote button and it will put them all into one post.
cool what school/professor. I'm sure he would get a kick out of reading this. If you get your degree..may god have mercy on everybody. tape is stronger than paper. So if you rip a piece of paper in half, and tape it back together, by your logic that paper is more structurally sound than it was before. 1 peice made of 1 part is stronger than 1 piece made of 2 parts. Everything I have seen you post on here has literally been the dumbest thing I have ever read. You must have the mental capacity of one of Terri Schiavo's stool samples.i'm majoring in mechanical engineering as well
Couldn't of said it better myself.

Im still trying to figure out why creating a weak point in the structure of a car and welding it back together seems safe.
the only thing im proven is that i don't spend 9 hours on IA everyday like you... you got almost 20,000 post and the funny thing is that IA owner julio got less then 14,000 post and he been on here 10 year. lol get a life!
go ride and bike, hike or walk your dog!

just to see if it goin to hold, when i see you i'll just run into your car.
LOL too bad we cant sit around and hack up cars!the only thing im proven is that i don't spend 9 hours on IA everyday like you... you got almost 20,000 post and the funny thing is that IA owner julio got less then 14,000 post and he been on here 10 year. lol get a life!

Can I hold you to that? Its been wrecked before (none of them my fault). Make sure I dont get it back if you do. Oh, and I hope you have good insurance, my lawyer is expensive as fuck.
deleted due to repost
sit around a hack up car?
but you got alot of time to SIT AROUND A POST?
Is that what you meant?sit around AND hack up A car?
but you got alot of time to SIT AROUND AND POST?
If so, yes I do, it helps to pass the time while I am at work and between calls.
so whats the big deal? his car, his work, appreciate or not i dont understand why yall on his nutts about it. If he chooses to weld 2 peices of a car let him, and he'll learn from mistakes if not then the car would be perfectly okay.
