i want to confess...

1. I think I'm addicted to Hyundai Coupe convoy, it's simply a marvelous view when you are see it from the back of the queue, LOVE IT.

2. I hit 195-200KMH with my 17" spot rim for the first time.

 

[Ace]

BS,
see what I mean..your car did able to hit that speed. hehe. hows the speed with the original rim?

As for the convoy...sign...too bad for me.

 

[BlackSamurai]

last time my original rim just hit 180KMH on PLUS coz the road traffic doesn't allow me to go further.

actually yesterday was doing normal speed at fast lane, and there are few cars queue in front of me, and everyone is following the flow. Suddenly a car (front grill changed) stick its' nose at my butt, and the front traffic just clear at that moment (i'm sure the car behind will kiss my back if I hit the brake, it's just too close). I shift 1 gear down, full the throttle and pull away from the car until it disappear from my rear view mirror.
Like took estacy, high already, but pull over to cut into middle lane when I saw a PDRM white WAJA. :p

 

[Ace]

so..in another word. Large rim did give some increase of top speed right?

BS :good job.......195-200KMH with my 17" spot rim cool

Ace: i thought large rims will gave stability only..?

 

[Ace]

super_white,

Some research says that with larger diameter. The wheel will spin faster with the same amount of rotation. But then again, this totally depends on your car setup and engine tuning as well.

I also must confess. I simply love the feeling of Hyundai Coupe Convoy........:_:

I never hit the speed over 180km/h before!:Not_Impressed:
But I know the feelings of smoking other cars that purposely tail you closely to challenge you..............:_:

Ace, maybe next time we can convoy together to Penang island leh. Don't be so disappointed.:_:

hey Roy/ Daniel,

Can a normal hyundai coupe car go above 180km/h till 200km/h? i never did dat before.afraid the car might turn. my maximum speed i can do was 160km/h at kesas highway.but the car already shaking...

 

[Daniel Lee]

Sandra, I think normal Coupe will not face any problem hitting speed above 180km/h.
Roy is a good example for this as he hit the speed of 200km/h RECENTLY.:_:

The max I try before was 180km/h on the North-South highway racing an EVO and my coupe can still accelerate further but I didn't floor the pedal any further.
RD1's weight is consider quite heavy to me and because of this I felt that my Coupe is very stable even at high speed.
If I'm not mistaken, RD2 is lighter than RD1. Wengfhai said that my RD1 was much more stable than his RD2 when he ride my car last Saturday. I'm not sure about the statistic. This is just based on the feedback from Wengfhai and me.
The engine is very responsive in the way that whenever I floor the pedal, the engine will power the car right away even at the speed of 160+km/h.

[BlackSamurai]

sandra, steering or car chassis shacking that you experience?

EVO can go further, once it's unlock....
Yu, am i right? No question ask

 

[babyishfemme]

Cool... i tried max 160km/h and it was syok!! but i never go above 160km/h. Roy, steering shake if i go fast on highway. is that normal?

 

[Daniel Lee]

Sandra, I think it's time for you to change your car's tie rod.

 

[Cow]

wah, luckily i couldn't join you guys that night.

my suspension all kaput already, wouldn't wanna risk going past 140km/h with dead suspension...

 

[babyishfemme]

Daniel...change tie rod? Is it the one where Darren said plan to change? that 1 long thick stick for the streering?? ( i forgot the name, hehe) Hm....i think is cause of my car allignment and balancing....im not sure also...hehe....

Cow, thought your car is already modified..sure can go more than 140km/h ..hehe....

 

[Daniel Lee]

Sandra, I'm not sure which part Darren wanted to change.
Don't mix up drive shafts and tie rod though.
Might be the car's allignment and balancing too. Maybe you can send your car to any nearby tyre shop and let them check it out for you. :)

Cow, when you wanna visit the workshop?..........kekekekekeke..............
