Re: Hyundai Verna Fluidic SX (O) Experience

Congrats Nick on the new acquisition. The mods made are really awesome and has added “Char Chand” to the car. All fluidic lovers are glued to this thread.

I am waiting for my baby; and its really making me impatient as days go by. The dealer is very tight lipped and no one except owner knows delivery details of Verna. When you talk to owner, he says any day now.. Please pray for early delivery J.

Cheers!

@nick: After upgrading the tyre size do u feel any negative in comfort? And do you think that 205 / 50 is the correct size?

Re: Hyundai Verna Fluidic SX (O) Experience

bensam56 after upsizing there has been no negativity infact i find the car has more grip steering seems the same, road noise is there on bad roads theres no bumps and noises while going over potholes cornering is good the grip is great on wet roads at speeds it does not aquaplane, FE is the same although no changes, the car looks better and a bit raised up. And there is feedback on the steering

i drove her till 130 had no issues it did not feel 130 the car got a bit bouncy as the road was not leveled well. Went through some speed humps which my aveo used to bottom out with 2 people, The verna did not, The brakes seem to have gotten more better pick up is tremendous from 1600-4500 rpms i did not go above these yet reached 80 in third gear and 100 in 4th at 4500 rpms and 130 in 5th at 3400 rpms. car can pickup from a full stop in 2nd gear as good as in 1st gear. takes time in 3rd but doesn't jerk
ac is a chiller very effective and puts minute load on the engine. funny thing is even after hard driving today the fe i showing 8kmpl

heres some videos of the ice upgrade taken from my cell(amp requires some tuning)
if any one wants a particular song at a higher volume let me know

same here. my crtm is about to expire. After that , it cannot be taken out . and have to wait for permanent number. Rto guy did something wrong. Dad got angry on him today but i dont know the matter yet.
man i am done. i feel like killing someone.
my car is getting wasted. even my dad is not using that car. nobody has even turned on the engine last week i guess.

@nick: I changed the tyre to Michelin 205 / 55 R16 and its very nice while riding and more road grip I feel. Low noise, No bumpy and more comfort..I think upgrading the tyre to these sizes 205 / 55 or 205 / 50 R16 will be nice for verna to bring more road grip. [thumbsup]

cost comes around Rs.8600/- each tyre and I sold out the old tyres so I feel the cost is balanced [;)]
