That's a WIN! You spent money making it your car and can track the hell out of it. I traded a F32 BMW for my Kona N and wish I did it sooner because all my time and money went towards keeping the BMW on the road instead of doing things I wanted to... and even then it wasn't track-capable.
Ah nice! Yeah they've done an amazing job with the platform, no complaints so far. It's a great daily and like you said, track ready!
You have been at the forefront with the Kona N mods. Of your mods the one I like the most are lowering and exhaust. If I do intake it would be aFe. Overall good build.
Can’t go wrong with the Takeda! AFe makes amazing quality parts!
This is the best Kona N I’ve seen so far! ❤
Ah man thank you! Appreciate the support!
i was supposed to give up on mine but your car made me change. love it
Ah man glad you didn’t give up! ✊🏾
Wow so much dedication to your Kona. Hoping to get some interior mods for mine soon. Yours is the nicest red Kona I’ve ever seen.
Ah thank you, appreciate that! Yeah outside of the steering wheel, not to many things yet, but the light interior mods really jazz it up a bit more!
Great video! Love these, looking to pick one of these up as a daily here one of these days haha
Ah its the best daily! Hoping the market cools off or you're able to find a good one used before they stop selling them new for 2024!
Thank you for always being honest and non-bias. You've made dreaming about this car such a positive in my life
Ah appreciate the feedback. Hopefully your dreams become reality, it's been amazing for me so far and just hope more Nthusiasts can experience this platform!
Great vid bro. Definately learned a thing or two!
Thanks man appreciate the feedback!
Interesting, enjoyed watching.
Thanks Steve! Hope to rip on track and hang again soon man!
I enjoyed the overall vehicle history, the disclosure of the amount of money in Kona N, and the video.
I really want a custom handle.
It is unclear whether it will be shipped to Korea.
I'll collect emergency funds without my wife knowing.
If it's about 1.3 million won in Korean currency,
I could buy a custom handle.
Haha, I'll cheer up.😂
Ah you should contact them! Hopefully you will get one! Also Korea has lots of N parts I am jealous
I absolutely love this car and how its designed. I especially fell in love with it more, since yours is the only one I see around driving in the Glendale area lol. I sold my Camaro recently, and now in the search for a N. Awesome build bro! 10/10
Hah ah man where in Glendale?! Are you the one with the red Camaro and black hood? Thanks for the kind words. Hope you find an N soon, lmk how it goes, down to meet up / hang since you're around the area!
@@CaliforniaKonaN No mine was a all black one with a massive carbon hood. I usually see you around Brand or on the local freeways. Also I'm always down to meet new people as well, definitely will keep that in mind!
@@sakona.n ah I think I might have seen you too, not that many Cameros, mostly BMWs that always almost hit you hah! Yeah let me know, I live really close to brand and central, if you wanna meet up by muffin' can stop us down to show you the car if you want to get a closer look since you're shopping. Just shoot me a DM on IG! (@cali_kona_n)!
@@CaliforniaKonaN Ah definitely cant miss those BMW drivers lol. Guilty as I'm one of them too lol. I'll shoot you a add now!
@@sakona.n haha as long as you weren't the ones cutting me off near that 134 entrances! Sounds good!
Just ordered a Cyber Grey KN Premium (Australia spec) as my daughter was born 2 months ago and I can't keep my MX-5. Can't wait, the car is awesome.
Congrats on the little one and man wish we got the cyber grey color out here. AUS gets all the good stuff!
Thanks for the breakdown on pricing and for making this video! Your honest opinion on the afe 2pc charge pipe kit? Any noticeable performance difference, good or bad? Any torque loss or gain on higher rpm?
No noticeable loss or gain. Temps have been low engine wise though so def some cooling gains especially paired with an Intercooler which I'm looking to install next! The idea for these they told me is to help support when you look to add more power!
@@CaliforniaKonaN Cool, thank you 👍
I went through the whole mod bug with my VN and Abarths so I am not going through nearly as much with my KN but I did switch to the 18s because I had them from the VN and it was really nice on both vehicles.
Ah nice! Yes regardless of other mods, going to 18s with a new tire is always a nice to do!
I’ve done the sxth mount so far and switched to ps4 a/s . Almost snagged the downpipe but it won’t fit the 23’. Sweet ride dude
Oh nice! How has the NVH been with the motor mount? Is their down pipe listed for the KN? I think there’s one out in Australia that makes one too!
@@CaliforniaKonaN Normal/ac on-idling the NVH is noticeable, seems to have calmed down a bit. My girlfriend said she wouldn’t have even noticed if I didn’t point it out.
Definitely improved the handling and nearly eliminated all wheel hop.
Apparently the ‘23 have a slightly different setup with their exhaust hangers, unless I misunderstood.
hey there i realy liked ur content . and i was thing to buy a normal kona and mod it into a rally car not a full on rally but as a daily driver x rally car so i have heard so many complains about oil rings and the awd system, so i wondered is it a good option? to buy a kona and is the engine reliable enough to handle rally . also wanted to know that can the engine and the awd system be upgraded to be more reliable than the factory ?
Oh, not too sure about the AWD Konas and any issues. By rally do you mean just having something that can hoon off road a bit? I know Ken Block had a video of them using the AWD Konas as test cars for some locations. But in regards to it being enough to rally I'm not too sure.
TBH I would look at maybe a WRX or GR Corolla (if you can get at MSRP) just cause the nature of those platform have rally inspo already and might be easier to build for some rally shenanigans.
But then again like I said not sure what the capabilities of the AWD Konas, and anything is possible to reinforce and build with the right amount of time and investment!
In regards to the Carbon Style C-Pillar Cover is the carbon fiber pattern textured to the touch or is it smooth like glass? I want something for those windows but don't want to do the carbon fiber. If they are smooth I'm thinking I would just plasti-dip them.
It's smooth, It's more a carbon fiber look, but really just sort of a thick plastic / vinyl but they are smooth.
A lot of the exterior mods I think were an overkill and a huge money sink , but that’s my opinion that spoiler mod looks nice but i don’t think I could ever put a drill near any painted surface on my car
To each their own! I think the exterior bits like the lip kit and wing for sure a big investment. The other pieces were just to have and are cheap / easy to remove.
Def scary to drill but feel this wing extension is the best looking one on the market so far. The Maxton has a wing cap, but doesn't flow with the spoiler lines of the car!
Interesting I got to see some R&D opportunities than where do you find all these companies to find sponsors from hopefully I can get some for my Elantra N
Ah yeah I would say 90% of everything for R&D and sponsorship has been luck, but def helps to put content out there to showcase a return on a brand's investment!
What size HPS cap did you order for the intake?
1in or 25mm. Got off amazon here:
www.amazon.com/gp/product/B083QJP211/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I wonder if any of these parts cross platform with the Kona N line 1.6t
Def a lot of the interior and exterior trim pieces! I’ve gotten things made for the regular Kona and they fit just cause it’s the same body almost. Engine wise though completely different!
Nice mods! However, your Cost Tracker should've used the MSRP prices, as NONE of us will be able to score free R& D parts, or even used prices. A definite oversight!
Thanks! Yeah left the pricing cost of the r&d parts so those aren’t in the tracker. But is more of my build in particular, and the hope is just to bring visibility to some parts and give an estimate. Also wouldn’t say NEVER! I’ve had a few owners DM me about their process of contacting some manufacturers. Again intention was to be transparent but appreciate the feedback!
How does the KN compare to a VN DCT?? In terms of fun. Are the closely similar or is it a significant difference between the two?
I haven't driven the VN but been around. I would say more comparable between them cause of the similar-ish wheelbase vs the Elantra N. The KN dif being taller for sure. In terms of fun I'm biased ha but I think the KN is fun but I would assume the VN would be just as fun but probably a little bit more nimbler as well as probably more aftermarket support since it's been out the longest.
@@CaliforniaKonaN Thanks for your reply! Love your build!!! Red is the best color for the KN.
Yellow tint for your drl... Where did you get that?
Badgeskins makes some overlay styles in different tint colors for the KN! You can see their options here:

Can you please put a link to the Facebook group you mentioned using to sell the wheels? Trying to do the same. Thanks. Great, detailed video.
Just dropped in the description but here's the link to the group!

@@CaliforniaKonaN Thanks so much.
Will there be a new intercooler soon?
Hopefully! Waiting to see if there's an R&D opportunity with aFe, if not I might look to run the one from Forge!
Does all these mods fit the elantra N
The EN is actually a more updated platform (and then these parts are specific for the DCT vs a MT). If anything I feel the KN is closer to the VN in terms of parts, so I would double check as I feel because it's newer that the parts for the EN are specific to the EN itself. Just confirm with the parts and make sure it's listed for the EN!
Ok I understand yeah I have a black 2023 Elantra N
Besides esthetics what were your performance gains afterwards?
I would say minimal without a full ECU tune. The bolts ons will help support additional power though. Honestly the car is amazing out the box if it was just a wheel and tire + lowering setup. But if you're looking for more HP def the bolts with a full ECU tune would be the way to go!
Is there a way for a tune
@@nickclashez yeah they have ECU swap tunes and they have EK1 pro and prolites you can hook up and load. My only thing is the obvious warranty voiding but also SMOG will fail once they detect a tune :(
bro i have a tuson ulimted and i feel the kona is my next
Hell yeah!
Looks good. In Ohio, there are 0 R&D locations. Lol. Cali is where it's at
Probably because there aren't many driving spots in at least 1/4 of OH. Rarely see modified cars around my town and any time I spot another N they don't wave or anything. Im in northwest OH and the nearest place to tackle curvy roads is 1.5+hour away. Seen more cruising spots around San Antonio, TX. This area should be on a list of places to not R&D something. Its flat, curvy roads are few&far between, and the only place to do a spirited pull is on a highway littered with speed-traps.
Ah but I bet there's less restrictions out there, cheaper and higher octane gas? Ha i'm not lookin forward to smog check in a couple years.
@@CaliforniaKonaN Yeah, f#©% CA's strict bs! Cheaper gas here but also lower pay. CA min wage is what $5/hr higher than OH so 🤷♂️ Octane wise 93 and E85 is all Ive seen on 75 so far.
Have fun with that one lol I avoid CA for such reasons.
And labor for installation ?$$$$$$$
That’ll vary depending on what shop you go and where you live. Also if you do yourself vs a shop
When you finally get around to more performance mods down pipe , water/ meth injection and a retune will really wake it up.
Hah for sure, but CA smog / emission laws always a pain T_T
@@CaliforniaKonaN E85 will fix that 😉
@CaliforniaKonaN Just don't take it past 450 wheel foot pound of torque without going better rod's and pistons . the old Mitsubishi evo10/ Hyundai N 2L 4b11 is a good motor .
But over 400 torque you can start getting metal fatigue in your rods especially if you use water/meth to get your intake temps down and start leaning hard on your ignition timing .
@@davidgriggs3967 ah yeah if it did come down to it I would keep it maybe a stage 1 I don’t need crazy amounts of power 🤣
Only for it to blow up 8 months later
Let me check how much am going to spend on modified my 2023 kona N 😂😂
Hopefully some great deals going on!
Those yellow DRLs look awful get well rid.
