What do you drive?


Recommended Posts

07 Hyundai Accent Hatch 5 Speed. 30 mpg city.

I don't have a picture of my actual car but here is the model. Also mine is white. :x All I added was a K&N air filter.

Future upgrades if I ever get some cash will be a single 10" sub from JL audio and a short shifter. Not looking to pour a insane amount of money into this little guy. Kinda pointless. If I did have the extra cash I would just upgrade to the Genesis.

Hyundai's quality is damn good.

The inside is plain and simple. I could care less for all the gadgets car's have now days.

Nice Camaro :D

oh, and the white volvo is also nice, I was looking for a 850R but it's so hard to find a well maintained one :(

Thank for you for your comment.

On a Volvo Forum there is some guys from Belgium who has just bought a used T5 pretty cheaply.

The "R" has more of a "special" thing going on but realistically its nothing more over a top spec T5 apart from the front valance, wheels and a 30-second overboost feature, slightly different seats etc...

Yeah the T5 is definitely the best engine for the Volvo estates out there.

Here's what I drive, shared. Not my picture :p

A while back when people were posting bike pictures I meant to post mine. I cleaned up a bit after an epic trip through Alberta/BC for a business meeting and snapped a few bug-free pictures.

Modifications include new pistons, rods, bigger-bore, valves/springs, port/polish/balance, ignition control unit, power commander, exhaust servo removal, quick shift kit, ohlins rear suspension, intake stacks/filters/etc, titanium exhaust from headers to tailpipe, full carbon fibre body/mirrors/fenders, magnesium rims, minor changes to gearing (3-5th are shorter than stock), -1/+1, -1/+2 and +2/-4 sprockets + chains (I'm running -1/+1 now), corsa 3s, and handful of things that don't actually make you go faster (lights, wind screen, etc). I also stripped a good 15-20kg of "useless" baggage that serves no purpose but to make you heaver. I make plenty of horse power but torque leaves a bit to be desired. On the street you can fake it by swapping sprockets and chain but on the highway/track I can tell it needs "a little something more".

I've got carbon fibre clutch/case cover and braided steal lines in the garage, I just haven't had the time or motivation to install them. I also need to remove the pillion pegs again: I had them on so my ex-girlfriend could ride on the back. I plan to toss on brembo rotors/master cylinders/callipers when this season's over and If I can find a good place to mount a bottle I might bolt nitrous on just to look cool in front of coffee shops. ;)

I can't justify the cost of a carbon fibre single-sided swing arm or the super sport front suspension right now.

Those are the only two changes I'd really like to make.

My commute to work is more-or-less a straight line. There's no really good left hand corners so I have a giant chicken stripe on the left side of my tire. I'm tempted to get down there with a wood-rasp so I don't look like a backward NASCAR refugee.

Edited by evn.
evn, are those rear foot rests stock or mods? Would love to know where you bought them.

Those are LighTech's World Super Bike rear sets. I ordered mine from another site (PM for details, I just don't want to spam) -- they were about $450 USD including next-day shipping. The rod that links clutch to the transmission is chrome so I just blacked it out with a couple coats of heat-proof paint.

Buy the fully adjustable ones: they're 10x more comfortable than the fixed ones that bikes come stock with.

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.3 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display.
