Over 200HP that's the scary part. LOL. Almost 80% increase.

no wonder can go that fast...speedworks boost at 0.7 max...so won't get 200hp...160++hp can la... but that is the safest boost to retain ur engine lifespan and also to get good fuel consumption...

Camry's angle is good, facing out rather than facing down, you can see the object when not too near.

But Elantra's camera is facing down more than 45 degree, you only see the object if it is within roughly a meter away. I complaint the camera angle to SA, he didn't say anything. I asked him whether can adjust the angle up, his response is cannot.

I can say the HU and Reverse Camera are the only things that pull me off a little bit..
*
mmmmm...my opinion the reverse angle 45 degree is already correct. the main purpose is to help us during park the car at tight spot. the camera is not purpose to see the car behind us. that u will need the rear mirror. why i say this because i install the front camera. the shop install the camera so i could see the car in front. so if i look the camera it seem confusing because the car seems to be far away but actually getting near...so in my opinion reverse camera is never meant to see the whole car behind...just to see when time to park the car...

Bros.. in two weeks time will be able to get the car.
Hope HE wont disappoint me. Haha.
Can we ask the Hyundai technician to help us to adjust the angle?
*
mmmm...it reminds me BMW 5 series they have an infra red camera infront...why not put front camera also and drive the car from there...no need to watch outside...just watch the screen... nod.gif

tkla bro..tu baru intro....skrg ni krete vios 1.5 leh dpt power mcm tu, tkkan elantra dok diam jer?????c'mon...krete elantra mcm kite ni should have that power since krete elantra design like coupe...
for instance veloster yg first came out many complain coz no power but aggressive design. then hyundai came out 1.6 gdi turbo...settle....

sonata also have 2.0 turbo engine and it compare to NA engine...many people say its more fun to drive the turbo engine...

so guys, to me its really irritating to here turbo here and there...its about time for us to do BOT...the question is who dares to do it first?

just do the cosmetic and leave the engine alone?mmmmmm....

i plan to do BOT but not now of course...rm10k ma...where do i find that kind of money....surely it takes me 5 yrs to get... cry.gif i'm sure you all out there have enough resources, so have that guts to get the BOT. as elantra owners, make us proud...

Still havent seen Turbo Elantra before.. so curious how the power is..hehe  biggrin.gif
*
it depends how the turbo set up is...if just BOT power increase will be 40hp-60hp depends on how much pressure u set it. if u tinker the engine now its a different story. bisimoto from USA can get 600hp from 1.8 NU engine for its elantra GT. 600hp?????thats massive and still its driveable and not for drag. i think nobody on earth can do that...if u see his work u'll find it hard how he could get all that power....on honda SOHC engine he could turn the engine to 700hp

but bisimoto works is top quality as he also sells his own parts under his company name...he has CRZ turbo package 533hp increased!!!!and he maintians the hybrid system. imagine that. Japanese tuner HKS could only manage 350hp+++ for crz.

so turbo upgrade you could find many quality parts, but to find a good tuner after all installation is very hard.

here in Malaysia Speedworks are offering the BOT concept, as its cheap (rm8000 to rm10000) and to ensure car owners that their engine is still ok with turbo.(since to retain the warrranty is so important).

want to...but 5 yrs warranty ma...AFTER 5 yrs can la...u see if elantra need the extra power to overtake long trailer if your car is packed(5 people+full luggage)so if 1.8 tekan abis car rpm will jump but your car is still there...so very dangerous if you don't have enough space to overtake....so need to know your car well during full loads....
thats why i decided not to take the car to terengganu....instead i borrowed my fathers Merc CGI. damn easy to overtake any slow vehicle while others car can't. because with short distance to overtake long trailer needs guts and really fast car...

so lesson to learn...know your car potential before u make any dangerous overtake...this if jalan kampung(1 lane) ok..on hways you can bring any car...except kereta lembu of course...

Yup, I had claimed my several months back.
Since i had installed the UR anti roll before this, i didn't felt significant difference after the change
But it did made the car more stiffer  biggrin.gif
*
then again hyundai is not yet in that dept(handling). car design already made its trademark. now they need to concentrate how to make a car handles well...my guess they are spending more R&D on innovative designs and equipment of the car.

like the kia k3, they on the car and aircon by using a handphone before one can enter the car. but if you love cars this is not you want for ur car...

so if one loves a car coz its engine and handling and hyundai dont have that. honda still have the best handling car and same time they manage to come out CRZ fully function hybrid...

hyundai need to focus elsewhere that is matter the most...car design they've got it...so its time to move on...

Hi guys,

Just got my Elantra 1.6HS 3 weeks ago. Serviced it on last Saturday (1000km service).

Yesterday I noticed something. Everytime I hard brake, there's a very loud sound. Not sure where it comes from. And today I noticed that it only happens when there are 2 back passengers in the car, and i doesn't happen when I drive alone.

Have you encountered this issue/problem? What is it actually? It's been bugging me!
*
....yola..since u mention it, same as mine 1.8. if im alone hard brake nothing...but if 1 adult at back there will be loud noise. it sound like abs kick in if not mistaken...but it does make the car stops.

I did the change already.

Ride over the pot holes is better, does not crash like before.
Ride over road bumps/undulating roads is better, does not bottom out like before
Ride is choppier though, maybe the springs are harder and shocks have softer damping... blink.gif
Does not bump steer as bad as before... which was quite hairy in mid-bends at high speeds. shocking.gif now my cornering speed is creeping up a bit.... whistling.gif

Well, resolving 3 out of 4 is not bad.
QUOTE(flashg @ Jun 25 2013, 07:26 AM)

Any owners changed their rear suspension (springs and shocks) under warranty at SC due to bumpy ride over pot holes, and instability and bottoming out over undulating roads? If you did, how is the ride of the car? Better?
*
may i know what elantra model ur car and what year it is? bump steer always have if there is a bump at corners...

ABS only "kicks" in when u slam hard on the break.
U can hear continuous "kang kang kang" sound from the break side.
And u can feel there's a push back on your break pedal at the same time.
U won't be able to "activate" ABS on normal breaking condition  smile.gif
*
yes thats logicall, so what i encounter is not abs...something wrong there. need to test some more...mmmm...hope its not major failure...brake? thats really dangerous...coz sometimes i feel the brakes are really responsive. but sometimes i need to push hard if the car seems not braking. when this situasion comes in, then i could hear braking sound at the back...

what this nonsense???

oic, mine 1.8. bigger rims. i guess bigger rims can reduce any bump steer and any uneven road...but if to put anti roll bar even better for cornering...make ur ride a bit stiffer.

The official car price for kia cerato is out. Anyone still want to buy?

http://paultan.org/2013/07/02/kia-cerato-launched/
*
its better than hyundai elantra.
1. 6 air bag
2. safety window
3. front sensor parking
4. DRL
5. 3 steering mode
6. rear air vent
7. ulimited mileage warranty...

and more...

to get 2.0 is a good bargain with an additional rm10k from 1.8 hyundai elantra price.... u get the above and extra power of 2.0.

hyundai elantra wins at car interior and exterior design, thats for sure...on the road HE looks more muscular from cerato...

this comparison is base on paper only... but KIA can win over hyundai if they bring the GDI engine or engine with turbo... they all have it over there..strangely for malaysia they bring really old engine technology...nowadays every car is into direct injection and turbo...really shame to sime darby and NAZA....

Conclusion, spec wise they win hands down can't say anything else
Design exterior n interior wise, we win (even a customer which saw my car coming said our HE looked better  thumbup.gif )

Gonna test drive both the 1.6 n 2.0 later during lunch hour.

PS: our car also has safety window bro  (both driver & sun roof) sweat.gif
