Default Hey there

Hey everyone my names Preston. I'm sure a few of you will recognize me from ElantraXD, GenCoupe or RWDCoupe.
Just found this site today while browsing CarDomain, I came across Joshua’s Tiburon and saw the link for the site.

Here's a few pictures of my ride, more on my CarDomain. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3372607

Tightened wastegate to hold more boost. Should be around ~17-18 PSI

Love the car but there is a few issues. Downshifting to 2nd and 1st can be very awkward, the shifter feels like its crunching into gear. Seems to be a big issue with most of the 2.0T M/T, some people have had trannys replaced because of it. Other than that there are random things that rattle in inside the car.

that's strange they haven't fixed those issues. crunchy shifting and rattling have always been a problem. it's a brand new car and shouldn't do that sad.gif 20 year old VW's don't have these problems and their shifters are amazing. i'm even surprised rhys replaced his ZF in the RM460. the ZF is designed by Porsche so i'm not sure why it would do that and why after so many years they haven't mastered this technology.

on the flipside, i think the coupe is the most unique and true sports car out there. it's exciting to see what becomes of them, especially upgrading the turbos!

i have yet to drive one.
