I thought you have Mazda3?

Have you made up your mind which car you want to buy? Wait for HCCI? Hahaha, 2 years loh.

I'm waiting for that too for my wife 2-3 years down the road.

What gear mode you use? What's the day temperature? If you did at early morning 25-26C, 7-7.2 is kinda slow considered what you modded. Of course I don't know what exhaust you put, catless? High flow? Muffler type? Resonator delete?

Elantra Sport can hit this time easily on cool day. Even Civic stock is possible if you drive around slowly 50-60 to chill your intercooler first and do one best 0-100 in the cool day.

Fastest mode for Civic CVT is not Sport mode, it is L. At L it shift like D without emulate the gear change, but higher rpm. Haha, hope I don't create trouble for myself for spreading this, more Civic turbo kacau my Elantra Sport with new learned tricks.

I think with your mod, you has potential to hit 6 if you get a good launch at good environment.

Looking at Mazda 2 only, no kick for you lah.

You sure just 24 hours? Maybe I'll kidnap wkc5657 become bagger at walking street, need to maximize ROI. Haha

We are all salesman, conman per Dr Jay. We don't trust each other either. Hahaha

More like Sport mode give you back the supposed throttle response. Remember modern cars are electronic throttle. The peddle you step is just a sensor, you can technically replace it with a joystick.

Normal mode dampen the input. Any spike of action is normalized. Eco mode dampen it further. That gives you the smoothen response.

Sport mode send your input immediately to the throttle body.

Mazda3 handling vs Elantra Sport is hard to judge, depends on your feeling. But both hands down best handling in sub 140k range.

Elantra Sport is significantly faster than Mazda3. You will need the 2.5L Skyactive to keep up with Elantra Sport.

Oh, lovely! Here you are. I mistakenly took someone as you few days back. Hahaha

Have you try high speed?

Wind noise at bare minimum, even at 180 still surprisingly quiet. 160 is a relax drive.

The Ventus Prime 2 tire is quite noisy though. At high speed it is rolling noise and rolling noise and rolling noise.

PM link please, make sure I join the right one. There are so many salesman group out there.

Anyone know where is the egr for ES?

Couldn't find it physically nor the part list online.

After searched the part list, I was wrong.

Got LSD. For me this is the biggest upgrade over the conventional Civic and Elantra Sport.

BTW, possible to install LSD on Elantra Sport DCT?

Not sure this one fit. Major project, but I think service center most likely won't find out.

Did a quick check. Unfortunately, they are different.

I think he meant quarter miles drag. Almost 400m.

On average, Elantra Sport 0.5s ahead at about 150km/h. That should be comfortable 15m-20m distance apart.

But 0.5s if his reaction slow, still lose to Civic.

Aunty uncle know nothing about cars. My family elders all pro Toyota. No need test drive, Toyota = Best. All they look at are those they can physically touch like wood trim, infotainment, seat soft or not (know nothing about support and ergonomic), FC and reliability just listen to SA myth, tire want cheap replacement. Tried to explain important of wheel grip, airbag and stability control kena scolded like why drive so fast, airbag expansive to replace. Worst is order without test drive, this is deadly.

My generation started to rebel. Mazda, Hyundai, more to come. We have been upsetting the older folks in the family until one day they sit in my car 660km highway. Shut their mouth, highway can be stable without boat ride. Not our skill problem, it is the car suspension and weak chassis. Been blaming us don't know how to drive for so many years.

TGNA will change this, thanks to the healthy competition globally. If not the rise of Korean car, Altis and Camry would still give you 2 airbag and VSC only at top trim.

Civic turbo is good car too, no doubt. Civic 1.5T or Elantra Sport are the 2 best options at 130K price range. Either one depends on preference. Just don't waste your money on Salphy or Altis kinda thing. Wait for new platform if you insist on the Toyota or Nissan brand. If you drive Civic or Elantra once, you know how dangerous are the older Corolla platforms. The body delay 0.5s to your steering input especially on the S curve. In emergency this could be succesdully avoid vs accident already.

Aiya, I bought Elantra Sport for its fun to drive and affordability. Don't want to spend anything more that my annual pay on a car, else there are more hardcore options out there.

35s is not spectacular. Elantra Sport stock 31-32s, that is still significantly slower that BRZ or a Golf GTi. 200hp are meaningless against a real monster.

So just enjoy your car and stop bragging the 207. It is a good economic car with little bit of fun factor. Just stop imagining it is a sporr car.

Ok ok, SPORTY family c segment economic sedan. Both Civic Turbo and Elantra Turbo same, same

Just that, yalah yalah. Civic turbo top speed 207km/h, and it took 35s for 0-200km/h. You and me, as well as the rest very likely already remember the number. kena brain wash kaw kaw.

If you wear skirt, I don't think that would be an issue.
