I don't get what the big deal about trying to take a $17,000 car from the 90s and make it beat $20,000+ vehicles from the 90s is achieving.
By today's standards, 4-spd auto with a 6-banger that only gets 20/29 mpg yet ONLY makes 200hp is ****.
What's even more **** is when the same car with a supercharged makes only 240hp, and then requires more expensive gas.
If a Hyundai walked me, I'd not be surprised.
^True story. Sadly.
Also what speed did you pull from in that first video? I'm NA too, and I can't get grip for **** in wet weather Below 40 MPH. Spin city.
ya I was surprised also you didnt start spinning dropping in first gear in the rain...Quote:

Dont feel bad. I drive a bone stock 3.8 Hyundai azera and it smokes GTP's all day
hyundai isnt what it was back in the day, both hyundai and kia are legit now. they make amazing cars, efficient, stylish, and powerful
You read too much advertising.
lol no, i see with my eyes. they are not cheap made cars anymore by any means
Just because it improved vastly doesn't mean its not still cheaply made. You can't make a <$30,000 car with $50,000 worth of parts. In order to make a profit they still make them cheap, they just got a better idea on style and powertrain.Quote:

Hi transmissions who can't hold a 275 CHP turbo 4 banger.
Both Kia and Hyundai.
There.
They suck.
Dude you did you even punch it? I didn't hear a whine
o wait..
sorry that was mean of me, i once owned a gt, not a bad car actually quite fast :]
sorry for the loss :[
I did a collision job on a 2013 Hyundai 2.0T, I can imagine they are pretty quick
Dont feel so bad. I just dusted a GTP with my new work van by at least 3 cars (Gotta love a 6 speed tap shift and a 7 grand redline). And nothing is more embarrassing than getting bussed by a minivan. Im about to line it up with my GTP to see what it can do. I know my car is faster, but I want to see by how much.

Yea I hear you there.. I once got walked by a late 80's 3.8L Taurus in my 99 Z24 lol. No it wasn't a SHO because about 2 years later I ended up purchasing a 90 SHO...
