I was watching either TLC or discovery channel, and it was a show about the worlds most amazing something...... or something

and they covered ALL of hyundai's stuff.
Hyundai made a 93,000 (ninety three thousand) horsepower engine, whish was about 50 feet tall. it was designed for a frieght ship. They also manufacture ships (like the big oil things, and carriers). They also make cranes.

So before you say hyundai cant make shit for shit. think about that

they aren't the shit just because they can make a huge engine...they still suck because they just can't make a reliable one

BTW...i want to see it

They make slow cars. I don't think anyone on this board really cares if they make a 93000 hp engine for a ship.

honda makes a 10hp lawnmower. i can mow the lawn in record time.

seriously though. i give them props. who would have thought a low-end car company would make such a thing

that's right. even their cars look ugly. now can you swap their 93,000 HP engine into the Tiburon?? If you can then I will say Hyundai isn't shit, and buy the engine right away. hyundai's (the cars) look ugly, are very slow, and the most they deserve is an APC logo across the windsheild.

honda has a new 165 horsepower turbo charged jetski engine that looks like a b16

how does a jetski get more HP than an SI?

Maybe if you posted this on a Hyundai forum people would agree with you. I personally don't care about ships. just because you make a great engine on a ship doesn't mean you can make a great engine out of a car.

I think they also have a 3mile seaport in korea. Jesus thats huge.

Hyundai is well know for there large ship engines I for one think it’s very impressive that anyone can make internal combustion engines with cylinders big enough for a person to stand in.

Yeah Hyundai is like really big in building other things, but in cars they suck. They have the worlds biggest shipyard and it streches like 2 miles long. Shits is off the hook. Hyundai is like the monopoly from Korea.

yea, i think it was the largest in the world (?).

and the owner/founder was a con-artist. back when japan "owned" korea, japan would shut down any buissness they found "threatening" to japan (like money-wise) so the owner, was a "mechanic" but the only people who really owned cars were japanese officials, so he wou.d "repair" their cars by taking all the parts off, and polishing/cleaning them, and putting them back on, charging the people for new parts, this "bizzness" was shut down when he started making to much money, not cuz the officials (car owners)found out what he was doing. and then after he was shut down for that, he became a car builder....the rest you know
