I read it as new chat thread and wondered what was wrong with the old one.

The old one was in the members section and the old members were removed from there so now we have this one to stay in touch

Duncan why do you have so many things for sale!

Ha! That thread has been up since you last logged on.

I have a bunch of other stuff to move, wait until the internet finds out I have a working Epson EJ1 I don't need.

@evil_weevil how’s the i30 going? Thinking about buying one myself as it seems like the most sensible of the cars I was considering 

My daughter just purchased a new Kia Cerento GT, "apparently" going of reviews it has basically the same driveline as the i30 N line premium, apart from the transmission options 

Both had typically warranty IIRC

She went looking at both, she said they were both similar inside, but she liked the inside of the Kia better and the Kia had a little more room inside

She ended up going the Kia Cerento GT because it ended up a few grand cheaper than the i30 N line premium 

She has to wait for it though as she wanted some premium pearly white paint

In saying that, even with the extra costs for the paint and other accessories she ticked the box for, it was still a few grand cheaper

How it holds up long term wise compared to the Hyundai is something that will have to wait and see

They way I see it they are both great cars for girls.....😋😘

I had a 2011 i30 manual diesel.

Box in it was what you'd expect from a normal driving car.

 

Oddly after having the work EV for the last 8 or so weeks, it's weird driving a manual on the street. And I'm not sure I could buy a traditional manual for street duties again.

 

The Hyundai's and Kia, they're going to pretty much perform the same as each other longevity wise. Most of the electronics, drives etc are all shared.

I have a lot of technical documentation from Hyundai, and it's all headered as "Hyundai Kia".

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
