Hyundai Elantra Forum The Hyundai Elantra Forum. Later models (96-up) of this 4-door share their Beta engines and chassis with the Hyundai Tiburon. Earlier Mistubishi-based Hyundai Elantras (92-95) are perfect candidates for the popular 4g63t motor swap, which turns the Hyundai Elantra into a real sleeper. These characteristics make the Hyundai Elantra a great car for those who want sports car performance with family car flexibility.

I've driven a Forte with the same motor/curb weight. It's not terrible. My friends did the 1/4 (when cold out) in 14.5ish.

I just love the D-cut race wheel and the carbon fiber trim that comes in them!

Not a big fan of these steering wheels with the flat bottom and all the glamour.







Simple. 90's FTW.

Radio volume buttons on the wheel are nice, but the rest I could do without. But you know what is a beautiful thing? A full-sized horn button (i.e., the whole center of the wheel)!

Radio volume, cruise control and phone bluetooth on the wheel are all wonderful things to have! Makes driving much safer so you can keep your eyes on the road and not messing around with stuff all over the dash.
