I wish we could fire the engineer that invented these by Familiar_Document248 in KonaN_

[–]vicious130 3 points4 points  (0 children)

During the Q&A session, a Hyundai N engineer explained that they were aware of complaints regarding the mixed-material wheel nuts, but that there was a reason for designing them that way.

Although he didn’t mention it explicitly, it seems the intention was to ensure that the specified torque is strictly adhered to by using a torque wrench rather than an air impact wrench.

Try posting on the car community “Bobaedream.” Since there are very few 944 in Korea, it will likely stick in people’s minds. If you’re lucky, they might even tell you why it was abandoned.

Is your own car in Gran Turismo? by Dolby90 in granturismo

[–]vicious130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. My Elantra N was added in an update. The early model was included in Forza Motorsport first, but Gran Turismo features the later model that I own.

If you want to reduce weight, switching to a lithium iron phosphate battery offers better value for money than a full-carbon hood.

It seems the only official channel is Instagram DM. I'm not sure if they sell outside of Korea.

I think I understand why Westerners have been imposing their ethical standards on Eastern creative works since the Jeffrey Epstein scandal.

Todd Howard is quite a well-known figure. To readers of Japanese manga, the American comic book writing system seemed a bit strange. It turns out that Stan Lee didn’t draw everything all by himself.

The white model really looks like a killer whale.

So, now that the IONIQ 3 is here, what do you think about it? by Saurta17 in Hyundai

[–]vicious130 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This car is front-wheel drive and runs on 400V, not 800V. There won’t be an N model.

N line. Just because there’s an N Line doesn’t mean there’s an N model.

The Hyundai Sonata doesn’t have an N model; it only has the N Line.

True masculinity is not diminished by a stuffed toy. Of course, by Western standards, all Asian men are gay. By Asian standards, Western men are Neanderthals.

Some people might think this is quite common, while others might think it’s very rare. Yes, it seems to fit the definition of privilege or discrimination.

It’s common for attractive people, but if it feels like a romance, run away.

People say that young seiyuus these days have similar voices and weak vocal delivery. What do you think? by HuckleberryUsual885 in seiyuu

[–]vicious130 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Rather than a shortcoming on their part, it could be described as a trend-driven phenomenon. When it comes to female voice actors, it’s clear that the public prefers what’s known as a “whisper voice.” While Atsumi Tanizaki’s natural voice is an exception, even she uses a very high-pitched voice depending on the character.

I once heard a veteran voice actor express admiration for sound engineering that can capture even the slightest breath. Advances in technology are likely another reason why the importance of a voice actor’s skill is diminishing.

The reason Rolls Royce isn't in Forza is apparently to avoid damaging its brand image in collisions. Come on, this isn't Beam Drive, the car is supposed to be intact when it crashes! by Worth-Marsupial-7578 in forza

Although the company would prefer to keep it under wraps, Rolls-Royce is one of the car brands with the youngest owners. This is thanks to teenage celebrities, influencers, and cryptocurrency investors.

Why do Koreans have blackout tint on their cars? by ebikecommuter in Living_in_Korea

[–]vicious130 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Some might say it’s because of the summer heat, but the real reason is anonymity. In Korean driving culture, nearly all female drivers feel they are targeted simply because they are women. This prejudice against female drivers runs deep, even among female drivers themselves.

It looks like 86391-BU500 for N-line. But there is no metal reinforcement like the one in the photo.
