And I know you don't want to, but tune that thang and don't video it, just for yourself if truly your daily. 1 year now on mine pushing 320 wheel, on a car that was totalled when I got it and hasn't missed a beat in any aspect.

    Everyone saying this is a Hyundai commercial or basically just calling him a sellout are just haters. Dude has worked his a$$ off to get where he is and to have the opportunity to get a sponsorship from a major car manufacturer that’s also putting him in a race car. His content is still good. Just because he is getting paid to drive and do videos on a car you don’t like doesn’t mean his content is any less good. What if he did this exact same video with Porsche? Would it still be bad?

    Data isn’t boring, it’s beautiful. I was a driver on the FSAE team at my university and we logged huge amounts of data, most of which I couldn’t understand, but the driving data improved my skills considerably. All car enthusiasts should be interested in data if they actually want to get better at what they do. Data-driven modifications and testing is the best way to actually avoid wasting money on useless mods. The “street cred” days are over, we want results and to get gud. Talk us through the data, you’ve got a platform to actually expose people to this for the first time and teach them useful things.

    That is actually a cool comparison. I was speaking with some people about lets say in this case. A stock, non Nanyang Elantra. A modified Elantra is most likely going to be faster. But the Nanyang model in comparison to a regular stock but modded Elantra might actually be faster, depending on what you do to the vehicle. My point for the people I was having a conversation with was that its typically best to leave the Special Additions stock, and many times, modding them makes them slower. They can be faster, but you have to know exactly what your doing, rather than, this component is cool. Or, I want this, everyone says to get this. Which there is nothing wrong with, because I still encourage and support vehicle enthusiasm.
    In this case, there was a Nanyang, so modded over stock from factory, and spent 20k. You could have put those same mods on a Non Nanyang. Still, I wouldn't be upset, the vehicle is Unique.
    But if the money is there, you might try sticky tires on the Nanyang with a race alignment. Like the modded one has. Minimal money spent. Or even just the Stock Nanyang with sticky tires.
    Good Content. Any Chance of a follow up with sticky tires on the stock Nanyang.
    A Camaro ZL1 or Mustang GT350 for instance, they already have most of the stuff one would want for a regular Z, SS, or GT, in order to make them faster at the track. Just Sticky tires and a race alignment would do it.

      A trip to the 'Ring back in the day really changed my mind about DCT. A huge amount of the BMWs there ran DCT - because on tracks that have a lot of shifting, it makes a noticeable difference in lap times.
      When I had an e92 for a hot minute, I felt like the gearing and shifting on the DCT suited the s65 engine really well. I recall hearing that the car was developed around that transmission. DCT kinda rips!

    Just the tires and alignment should make for over 2s difference. I love the concept, but tires and alignments aren't really a mod and there's too much difference between a "200"tw competition tire and a actual 300tw summer tire for this to be a helpful comparison. Set the cars up the same as far as tires and alignment, then the test results will show the real difference between spending big-$ on the coilovers and brakes vs stock. Also, the wheels you chose are poorly spec'ed. et 50 is the right offset, 45 max... 35 offset is way off and they poke too much.

      agreed, modifying a car for the track is about eliminating weak links more than it is about putting on flashy mods that may not do anything. as an engineer this is just my approach to most technical problems but i know vin isnt the most technical guy so i dont really blame for this video, plus the car has to look good for youtube ig

      @ stop. It's cool that Hyundai is paying for this. But Hyundai is gay asf. That's why Hyundai isn't on your "cool car" list and it's not what your normally post. There's no Hyundai equivalent to your e36, your rari, or your Porsches. Hyundai isn't nearly as cool as Toyotas, Nissans or Mazdas

    Honestly I have no interest in fwd cars but I will say that I enjoy the Elantra N content mainly because you make it fun and interesting. I’ve never considered a Hyundai and while I honestly still won’t, I did fire up an auto tempest search and checked a few out which is saying something lol. Happy thanksgiving Vin, have a good one Chief

    I have an Elantra N and I’m trying many different tire combos to try to see what’s best but quick tip, play with your alignment with the camber bolts and upgrade bushings those are night and day differences for performance driving

    How much of that 1.5 second delta is tires, and how much is the -3.5 degrees of camber up front?

  • @Syscrush
    @Syscrush 2 месяца назад +1

    It's cool to see that the suspension, brake, and wheel/tire mods made a measurable difference. The car looks better than stock, too.
    But the idea that you go out and have a fun track day and have to analyze data to decide that 1.5s per lap on a car you're not even racing is worth the cost of a 2-week trip to Hawaii for a family of 4 is some pretty messed up arithmetic.

    • @penamena5238
      @penamena5238 Месяц назад

      idk how those mods are costing 20k either. the carbon aero must be most of it because brakes + suspension + tires has got to be less than 10k i dont see how it could be more

    I've been really loving the direction HMG has taken with the vehicles they've been putting out the last few years. Especially recently. From their rally teams to the N line (combustion) also the N line (electric), and one of the gnarliest looking rides I've ever seen, the N Vision 74.
    I've driven a Kia (among many other cars) since 2002. I currently have a 2013 Rio sedan that I bought new in Fall of 2012. I would love to modify it into an all wheel drive, street version of Gigi Galli's 2013 Rio rally car.
    Maybe stuff the twin turbo V6 out of the Stinger into it?😈
    We'll see?
    If it happens somehow I'll bring it down to some event for demos.😉
    Oh, and I love that you two Hoons have been working with HMG.
    Congrats on the new RUclips and Instagram stuff and all the rad sh_t you two have been getting into. I rocked with Hoonigan from the start and it's really dope to have witnessed you two EVOlve from the beginnings with Hoonigan to y'all having your own things going now... Fu_kin' A you guys!

    I'd love to see the delta with the stock car on the same tires as the modded one, and just a set of track pads up front. I feel like that is the upgrade that would make the biggest impact, and it's probably the cheapest part of the 20k that was spent.
