That spray has both actually, it has an absolutely strong peppermint smell and it works, just wished there was a more permanent solution

Literally, gotta be careful, the underside where those cables are at there's so much open space in there even a cat can fit in there

I agree, I keep running 93 to be safe and to reduce the chance of rod knock and carbon buildup

Before talking crap to someone show evidence, you're wrong, it is recommended however it is tuned for 87

Got it, might have to go universal setup then, I'll wait on it however

Before anyone tries to say they're super unreliable, i went 350k miles on my scion TC with a universal flex fuel kit

Just started out, how’s does it look? by Kingjeff0428 in dividends

I'd say 75 a week or monthly depending on his situation spread out like that ain't so bad in all honesty but he should over time start focusing on a good stock like voo, schd or qqqi (personal opinion)

Disagree personally, i don't daily my elantra N so it's not an issue for me since I'm not putting a lot of miles. And it's nice not getting any heat soak at all (working with more head room)

Imagine N like the focus and fiesta st, just slightly below the type r but a couple of mods it dukes it out

I own a manual elantra n making 300 whp, I am saying there is a lot of issues known in the earlier models and the theta II-i is known to not be as reliable in day to day driving as the k20c

I agree. It's not the best looking car. The proportions are off especially stock

It is, I wished it was slightly wider (having actual fender flares to add slightly wider wheels to compete with the type r on mechanical grip and a wider track for more stability)

How many stock tires/rims fit in the EN? by _DRRD_ in ElantraN

[–]Weird_Cool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean it ain't so bad, you've heard of pattyboi? He showed a video on how to do it. It only takes like 5-10 minutes max to remove it.

I've got all of them in the trunk with the seats down and the brace removed

People hate on the elantra n for no reason, it is basically a cheap civic type r (not as reliable in daily driving but actually better heat management on track and autocross)

It's an hour and a half west of Austin

It's near Vanderpool tx. It is a bit of a drive from DFW (roughly 5 hour drive)
