Modified Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0T - One Take

[@deltamane17]

Haha he was just sitting there smiling like "sweet I'm cruising with Matt Farah " 😂

[@312xzybit7]

probably a little high lmao

[@KXP70]

He looked like a teenage girl that was wet for Matt

[@gunzoqc]

I would be wet

[@Stanley4558]

lol i bet he was a stoner. he looked high as fuck.

[@TWIRKNOLOVE]

It's his first date

[@bludmakesgrassgrow]

I think this guy smoked an entire marijuana

[@gaivoron]

my thoughts exactly. his face looked like a car ride was an entirely new experience for him. lol

[@eeterp32]

I bet he grows meth plants too

[@Robby94LS]

Nothing wrong with that at ALL! :-D

[@enigmaPL]

+bludmakesgrassgrow Are you just trolling or are you actually that stupid?

[@DaGhostQc]

He bought a Hyundai, you don't buy a Hyundai when you're sober.

lmao fuck

[@livingthelife8443]

Brilliant lol

[@scrustle]

Those pre-facelift Coupes look way better than the later ones.

[@wesleywalters1356]

the grill is the only thing that ruins the bk1 front end

[@fightfanian]

yeah the first Gen look good, second... not so much, looks more like a veloster front end.

[@SI0AX]

Many people replace them with de-badged grills and they look like a way more expensive/exotic car. BK1 is my favorite in terms of look but it also has the best aftermarket and just a reflash alone will net it 50 CHP.

[@teknoartist]

@@SI0AX the bk2 2.0 makes 65 more horsepower stock and a stage 1 tune is 45-55whp gain. Pretty sure the bk2 is a better tuning platform

[@harrisonmccollum]

I feel like I finally found someone that agrees! You got good taste.

[@VirusTornado]

Matt honestly these One Takes are one of the best things I watch every day. Bored every morning at work? Pop down to TST for something fresh. I feel part of the community, every day someone new with a completely different car, and I can never "predict" what sort of car I'll see.

[@johnsullivan937]

dont know why theres so much hate for this car in the comments. I picked up a bk1 turbo r spec for 4 grand and its the best money I've ever spent. brembos, lsd, 6 speed manual, low sporty suspension, and it came with a ecu reflash box to up the boost to 20lbs. its been more reliable than my 94 toyota celica i owned before. hyundai is starting to make a name for themselves in the sporty enthusiast cars. I think people are going to look back 30 years from now when all cars are auto and hybrid and regret being so hard on cars like this.

[@Ze-Germanzuk]

Holy shit, the Genesis Coupe is not a very good looking car usually but damn that thing looks sleek. Best looking Genesis Coupe I have ever seen

[@davidgray210]

I'm so back and forth on these cars. Some reviews say they have no steering feedback and just don't communicate stock. Then I see this and want to build one. I must drive one for myself! Thanks Matt

[@williamkarl8885]

He looks cooked af lol

[@holdthissl]

had a little bit of mary jane ~

[@Robby94LS]

If I had a car I were making payments on, I'd need to be cooked before letting Matt get in and beat on it! I feel for the kid! HAHA

[@district5rookie]

+Robby94LS He doesn't have to let him drive it all, you know that right?

[@Robby94LS]

But it's all or nothing I guess, I'm the kinda person that likes to lay down some GROUND rules HAHA!! I would love to see someone refuse to let him drive and have SUCH an amazing car he just chats about it while getting pan shots and OWNER drive by vid. Or have the owner drive HIM.

[@edkwon]

+Robby94LS it probably had happened, more than once, and guess what, those vids never make it online!

[@BESIMXCARS]

I just did a review on a 3.8 Genesis Coupe. These are awesome cars and I love the fact how you have the option for the two different powerplants

[@Ezero8]

Finally, a Genesis Coupe one-take! Thank you!

[@bahamabros4763]

Seems like a great guy! I've never seen someone so happy to have someone else drive their car lmao

[@ch0g0nda1]

There's a sensor at the top of the clutch pedal you can unplug to help out with the "rev hang". My '12 Veloster went from being a nightmare to practically fixed. A little hang is there if you pay attention but it's really next to nothing. You do lose the shift indicator and cruise however. I installed a switch so I could easily toggle for spirited driving/cruise control.

[@billphish]

If I whitelist this channel I still have to sit through the 30 seconds you take telling me to whitelist

[@SavageMedic]

Lmaooooo

[@Swtere]

Sweet jesus, those thirty seconds could really be put to better use I'm sure.

[@PuerRidcully]

Just rewind. Anyway, how to whitelist this channel only in ABP?

[@THEALC]

and you just wasted 30 seconds commenting...

finally a comment worth upvoting

[@mannyboy1996]

Lmaoo 😂😂😭

[@MichaelBradeen]

Glad to see a first Gen genesis on the channel. Everything said here was true, I had a 2011 Rspec - it was ridiculously slow stock and when I put a tune and intake on the stock clutch started to slip.

[@marbu992]

Hell, that turbo sound is awesome :D

[@dynodin81]

Traction control just came on.... "Lets turn that off!" Love it.

[@PastelitoPapi]

What if you have KZbin Red?

[@TheSmokingTire]

red is great! we're good with that thanks!

[@xXPepePeppersXx]

my thoughts exactly

[@gaivoron]

KZbin red? Redtube?!

[@xXPepePeppersXx]

+Vanneker I subscribe to both, they have great content

[@TheGandaCanal]

Some countries don't have red available, like me...

[@SixPackDan]

im surprised how good it looks with just stance and wheels.

[@swampweasel]

this one take is entertaining...i still don't think i'd ever buy a hyundai but that kid seems pretty cool...the smoking joint

[@invinciblejets4690]

In 25 years these will be desirable. Korean cars are blowing up like Japanese cars did in the 70s.

[@georgethezebra7496]

Something tells me the driving experience in a 2010 Genesis is a lot different than a Datsun 240Z. So I don't know about your logic. Then again, I am from Guadalupe and my mom's a Colombian meter maid writing tickets for the Cartel, so what do I know right?

[@tylerschwartz4327]

thats the damn truth

[@dumkopf]

Japanese cars were actually desirable back then. These aren't.

[@invinciblejets4690]

+Alberto VO5 well yeah the cars are a good 40 years apart😂😂😂

[@invinciblejets4690]

+dumkopf in the 70s?? Not really...anti Japanese sentiment from ww2 was still around.

[@vrmmmm]

Cool kid. Like seeing these younger guys into modding cars. Nice clean car too.

[@thesnoopypanda]

@TheSmokingTire - All Genesis Coupes have hydraulic power steering, no electric assist. - The rev-hang is caused by the cam phasing in the stock tunes as Hyundai simulates an EGR by changing the cam settings. A proper tune will fix it.

[@NismoDre410]

ive white listed whole YT i mean 30 secs wont kill me and if it helps ya im good bc tnbh yall channels be helping my bored ass get through the week

[@Audfile]

... kinda cool! I remember once if you had a Hyundai you got LAUGHED AT. it was cultural. neat how they've turned it around.

[@HiLandR]

I have the '15 RSpec and the power is solid. I am sure it's a lot move lively at 348hp at 3290lbs, its a lively fun drive. This from a former C5 Corvette (sprayed with additional 75). I would have to plan a trip from Kansas City unless you will be in the flyover states anytime soon!

[@maikeru01]

The whole time, Matt is basically saying "no it's not that bad." it's both the words and the tone. He's like "oh, it's not as slow as I thought." "Well the sound is pretty alright." "At least it's better than stock." "The suspension isn't good but hey that's okay. not all cars have good suspension." He can't bring himself to actually say anything good. Even when he says the turbo is good, he says it like a question.

[@ArrtusMusic]

I wish I lived in Cali so I could get Matt to drive my car and tell me how unimpressed he is with it. Ugh, life sucks.

[@greezay]

that chick has a clean ride.

[@Energizer720]

Rob Myers tbe engine bay was a little dusty tho

[@Watts378]

He's soo happy to be sitting shottie with you!

I Didn't get how going for a lighter flywheel may negatively affect the torque? any explanation would be appreciated..

[@TheDonCucaracho]

Already whitelisted. Man I feel bad for not really knowing how youtube ads work for you guys, until a couple of videos ago, now I'm clicking the shit out of the ads. Keep it up dude

[@ThatsNotVeryFunnyLol]

Its cool seeing him drive "Tuner" cars Idk what other word to say. But its cool.

[@nathant2414]

Smiling because he loves cars

[@zinner927]

Exhaust sounds good man

[@TheJMedia]

I reviewed my buddy's 2010 Genesis Coupe 3.8 and have always wondered what the difference between the turbo and NA version would be. Thanks for the review Matt!

[@donsterr]

Can't wait to get my Hyundai Accent 2.0T up to LA, Matt!!

[@papaannefranku9693]

I'm still wondering why they change the look of the gen coupe the 2010-12 were imo the best looking cars in there class......

[@jessehood81]

Time to review a 3.8! That's where the real fun is in the Genesis.

[@sergiodriftdrift]

[@adriangraham1823]

+TheSmokingTire hey Matt! Appreciate the videos, keep up the great work.

[@smilesic]

Sounds good Matt, it's off ... and hey look a Ford ad, at least its related to the content :) Cheers from Toronto, Canada.

[@EricSiedlecki]

I have KZbin Red. How does that affect ad rev generation?

[@Zcypot]

Rev hang as in when you are coming to a stop and the RPMs stay a bit high for a bit before they drop? My tuner told me thats put in place sometimes to prevent the car from stalling, it can be removed if requested.

[@ahadqureshi1198]

This guy looks higher than a kite lol.

[@Mrb00st]

that thing sounds good!

[@mylifeisJDM]

Bwahaha. He's got that boy band vibe that pre-teens would swoon over.

[@ajleece]

I thought the same thing. Straight guy here but dayum there's something about him.

[@klasseact6663]

...BTW I like this car and how it's modred, especially those wheels, good job?

[@mhn3773]

Matt, When you record these are you doing a 10 car marathon a day? Interesting to hear how close the reviews are together and how far back they are recorded sometimes. It sounds like you slave away for a weekend to get a few in the can.

[@TheSmokingTire]

I record 4-6 of these at a time. Most I've ever done in a day was 9. I once shot 6 and then did an entire 2 car review segment for NBC sports right afterwards, it was brutal. Then they get spaced out over time so the scenery isn't the same every day

[@mhn3773]

TheSmokingTire very interesting. Pretty cool to understand some of the backend. Also goes to show you guys do work, not just ride around a bit in a car every once in a while haha. Thanks again Matt.

[@Gasinduced]

It would be cool to see a "making of" kind of thing. Choosing cars, location, camera gear & the obstacles you need to overcome to complete the project. Could be a One Take or anything really.

[@spaace9414]

2010 1st gen had a bigger diff. nobody knows this golden nugget. cheers

[@Sonic_1000]

My Veloster Turbo rev hang was eliminated with unplugging the sensor to the clutch that controls the gear recommending junk. Not sure if the Genesis has the same sensor.

[@kbdadriftking]

The blow off reminds me of the EVO III from initial D live action

[@cragon25]

It's an Evo engine, so your comment is warranted.

[@kbdadriftking]

Cragon McBride​ I had no idea. Thanks for the info

[@XenomorphLV426]

+Cragon McBride it's similar to an Evo engine, except nowhere near as good.

[@cragon25]

+XenomorphLV426 Right. It was a joint venture between Chrysler, Mitsubishi, and Hyundai, and this engine is the second tier version of the three, with Chrysler's 2.0 turbo being the worst.

[@justinbeamon6624]

compared to other 4 cylinders it doesn't sound half bad

[@q_bzy]

+The Smoking Tire Matt the first gen definitely deserved the harsh review you gave it when it debuted. I can confirm after owning one.

[@Bolek989]

Wtf is with the rev hang tho lol? Is it necessary?

[@shadowhamster6054]

Yes this is a common feature for highpower street racers like this huyandai. It helps with the shifts and whatnot.

[@HaVoCevo]

It's for emissions

[@SI0AX]

I think the rev hang can be tuned out. I search "rev hang" and litterally the 1st link was a Hyundai Genesis forum so this is a common problem. Here is a copy paste: "The rev hang (partial opening of the throttle) was put into the throttle body control in order to lessen the blow by gas emission. During the development Hyundai researchers experienced that if a throttle body closes immediately, pressure inside the engine(crankcase) becomes so great, it caused more oil vaporization than usual. This is quite normal for any turbo charged engines, but Hyundai wanted even better emissions and didn't want to deal with the "oil loss" issues. Thus by partially keeping the throttle body open even after gas pedal has been completely released, pressure can escape from engine. So, here is what we found out. Solution to the rev hang issue will be to fix the throttle body control codes in the ECU, install oil catch can and add oil every month.."

[@HaVoCevo]

Taylor Remsen to burn off excess fuel in the cylinders.

[@Beer_Dad1975]

So to improve emissions on an already emissions compliant engine, and so the owner doesn't have to check the oil now and then,, they add an annoying as fuck rev-hang on what is supposed to be a drivers car, which would piss of any serious driver. Logic.

[@jonathanthompkins2131]

Matt, thank you for reviewing a Genesis coupe. I would like to know from you, for comparison sake, what would you recommend, 2.0 liter genesis or Scion FRS? This is for daily driving and Autocross and track day driving. Also will you be reviewing the 3.8 at any point?

[@SI0AX]

Points: 1. The FRS costs the same when new but used it costs a lot more than the Genesis Turbo. 2. The FRS has better handling than the Genesis Turbo but it's lack of power makes it much slower in the track. 3. The FRS has a better build quality than the Genesis Turbo. 4. The FRS is easier to tune but how much lesser gains than tuning a Genesis Turbo. 5. The Genesis turbo has a bad chassis and thus the steering doesn't feel very good. 6. The Genesis turbo is known for bad transmission gears and grinding. 7. The Genesis turbo has a bit of throttle input lag and rev hang.

[@jonathanthompkins2131]

SI0AX Thanks for that info. I am looking in to getting a new car, and I am leaning towards the FRS/BRZ. I want to make sure I get the best bang for the buck in a rear wheel drive car. I have heard that the Transmissions grind, and that is not very confidence inspiring.

[@SI0AX]

Jonathan Thompkins By transmission grind, you mean the Genesis right? I've never heard of any problems with the FRS/BRZ...

[@jonathanthompkins2131]

SI0AX Yes. I have heard that warranty will fix that though. (in the Gene)

[@SI0AX]

Jonathan Thompkins I've heard that you can replace the gear oil for a high quality one and it will alleviate the rough shifting and grinding.

[@OllieRadman]

I've been friends with Jackson since elementary school and he doesn't smoke lol. I can confirm he isn't high he was probably nervous. It's just the way he is lmao

[@DZoom28]

I've been waiting for him to do one! Wish he could do my 3.8 or one in general.

[@TDikov]

@TheSmokingTIre Matt, regarding the temperature gauge, I don't know of a new car that shows the true temperature of the coolant. In normal circumstances the gauge fluctuates so much that people get worried and think there is something wrong with the car. The solution that most manufacturers have employed is to program the dash to only show you when its really, really hot.

[@tobagoak3014]

Looks like a genny driver.

[@erikmiles5536]

A lightened flywheel decreases inertia not torque. This only has an affect during the initial engagement of the clutch. Otherwise it "frees" up power that would normally be used up accelerating the extra weight.

[@XenomorphLV426]

lol exactly. Typical Genesis owner doesn't know what's he's taking about.

[@ManPigeonWorldWide]

This is the funniest one take

[@vwssit]

had my car for just pass 6yrs now... never had issue with rev hang... maybe is a hotter climate thing?

[@spooledyou300]

Matt do you have any DSM's scheduled to be reviewed ( aside from Evos)?

[@thesauceman2989]

he reviewed a pretty fast 1g eclipse a while back look it up

[@TrickTube]

Waiting for the 500th video :D

[@ricardogalan8193]

Hey man love the videos you'll do but whitelisting on ad block plus is not that easy, what I ended up doing is also installing the original ad block and whitelisting you on that and just disabled ad block plus just for KZbin but I do use ad block plus for everything else. Just letting you'll know, I don't know if you want to link a video on how to whitelist on Adblock plus but like I said they make it more difficult to whitelist on that versus the original Adblock

[@Gasinduced]

It looks decent, pretty heavy though. Hope Hyundai keep plugging away and deliver an alternative to the 86.

[@robtorres3120]

Great video as usual. Nice to see a Hyundai with some decent mods. But the kid had me rolling. He must have said "Yeah" like a 100 times. Maybe he was nervous.

[@Sonic_1000]

It also got rid of a lot of the throttle delay, on throttle.

[@kristang26]

"just smile, don't look awkward"

[@Imleocalm]

Bout time you got a genesis coupe. The new ones are MUCH BETTER! If you can get your hands on a 14+ 3.8 Ultimate Turboed.

[@bottomlayer]

Yeah I remember your original view of the Genesis coupe, and then you did another one with the French chef! I thought Hyundai had fixed the rev hang with the later coupes, as several people on here left comments stating so.

[@NafaratMiyaMiya]

The owner seems really cool not very chatty but guy been smiling the whole time ... I wonder if he's high...Hmmmmm ;) I personally prefer the V6 Genesis Coupes but i see the appeal of the 4 banger turbos ... nice car overall

[@isitfast2067]

I raced one of these with a 2000 Acura TL stock for stock and it was pretty fast. I beat him by a car but mind you I was alone and he had 2 passengers so I can imagine this car being modified and with him alone probly really moves

[@737Stig]

Clean Gen especially for pre face lift. Can you do an older Benz or Amg tho please!!!

[@therealpanahabob]

Matt!!!!!!! I'm taking some adds for the team buddy!!!!
