X3 Beta Swap
Hi,
X3 newb. I have been reading over a few days now. If someone could link me to a beta X3 comprehensive build thread it would be greatly appreciated. I sense beta swaps for the X3 were popular a decade ago, and information isn't showing up in searches b/c those builds were done to long ago.
I appreciate your assistance and thank you in advance.

Check the Hyundai Hybrids section of the forum. There should be some info in there. Unless you drive a Genesis you're kinda on your own here. No love for the Accent's anymore.

I have looked at most every thread there. Only ran across an LC Beta swap. I bought a 97 GL Accent like this one brand new back then.
I loved my car. Always wanted to mod one. Have my eye on a couple of low milers and will likely pic one up. I guess if there is a will there is a way .

Buy an X3
Buy a J2 elantra
Buy workshop manuals for both
You may combine engines, transmissions, and wiring as you wish, there are a thousand ways to skin a cat.
I swapped a beta II cvvt into an LC in australia and had a large struggle because none of the american wiring diagrams matched what we had here. Fun!
