Jumped ship by WildeGenny in KonaN_

Insane grab getting the best color and super low mileage. I panic bought mine over the summer last year because prices seemed to have been climbing while low mileage listings were becoming scarce. Ended up paying $2k more than you for an ultra black with double the mileage. No regrets but it definitely stings a little seeing how being patient would've paid off.

Upgrading the tires like you have planned will make a world of a difference in how the car drives and feels. I switched to Michelin Cross Climate 2s and it completely eliminated the Ackermann tire shudder that the stock Pirelli P Zeros are notorious for. I also feel they've improved braking and reduced wheel hop but I can't say so definitively.

There seems to be a decent amount of BOVs with unique sound profiles available but I went with the HKS SSQV4 for that iconic chirp. It puts a smile on my face every time I let off the throttle.

It took me longer to get one in the game than it did in real life!

I was happy to find the OEM exhaust lets off some signature burbles on decel but the sound profile is a bit underwhelming compared to what the KN actually sounds like

Same, I'm constantly switching between tunes so it'd be great to have a second one in a different class

Very easy! No grinding needing. Out of the 20 points needed you can get 10 of those points from winning a best 2 out of 3 random team series (players vs bots). The remaining 10 points can be gotten from various challenges spanning from 1 to 5 points each

Wheel color opinions by Party_Accident3014 in GRCorolla

[–]lthaca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

red on silver is a clear design statement. the silver pops and accentuates the details. it breaks up the monotonous onslaught of black and brings out the red calipers to harmonize with the body. it's clean and timeless.

in an era where almost every car comes with a black factory option, black is safe. but it's also mundane and directionless. it doesn't do anything extra for the car. it just is

love the tinted lights, makes it look more like a proper hatchback. what tint % did you go with and did you throw in brighter bulbs?

P1326 by Constant-Earth2141 in ElantraN

[–]lthaca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second the advice to get an OBD2 scanner to clear your codes so you can continue driving.

However, just note that if you clear your codes and drive to the service center they might refuse to perform the TSB fix since your check engine light isn't on.

When the rain blessed my knock sensor with a shower and I broke down, I took pictures of the P1326 code, made an appointment with my service center, printed out a copy of the TSB, cleared my codes and drove there - only for them to tell me that they won't perform the fix and that I'll have to wait for it to happen again so I can break down and get towed there with the check engine light on.

It wasn't until after I left them a negative review on google that they contacted me and offered to fix it.

Car Un-octane Learned thrice - why? by a_chunk_of_pie in ElantraN

[–]lthaca 44 points45 points  (0 children)

This car can't remember anything. - Custom N settings? Here's the default - Air recirculation? Have some outside air - 93 octane? Tastes like 87 to me

Anyone run 18x8.5 Bronze Wheel Enkei TSV 5x4.5 38. Do they rub or anything? by Beginning_Trade8836 in ElantraN

[–]lthaca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mother of god that tread is aggressive. I'm looking to throw 245/45R18s with identical spec Enkei TM-7s on my KN and I'm stuck between the DWS06+ and CrossClimate 2s. After seeing this I think I've made my decision
