Any one have an x3 with a 1.8 beta?? Just wounder i herd they dislike the accent transmissions?

The Alpha tranny has smaller/weaker differential case.

I personally separated an alpha trans from a 2.0 beta and watched bearings fall out of the bell-housing. What bearings you ask? The output-shaft shot through the case.

I was just woundering only because i know they do alot better on boost then a 2.0 with stock internals there one now in pr that goes 10s 11s on 14psi and i just was woundering should i just run an elantra trans or accent. Or tib.. Not sure

Juanra

Some people here use Mitsu trannys con there drag cars!

If you are going to boost a light weight car, id say get an XD trans. They are normally cheap and they have a bit longer gearing. It might help that little boosted thing out to not blow through 1st so fast.



Or do what Juanra said but be prepared to switch other stuff out like the hydraulic system, etc. Should be easy stuff if you can swap a mitz trans onto a beta.

Juanra

TO do a mitsu swap needs custom fabrication.

Yeah f*ck that lmao i know a little about them..thats bad ass. But hey whats an xD?? Im not familiarwith all of them...and what clutch would i run? Cause right now im running a 2.0 with accent trans with a Mirage clutch and a light weight flywheel.

XD = 01-07 Elantra. Anything listed for a 97-01 03-06(?) 4cyl Tiburons and elantras work. They can also use mitz clutches if you convert the from pull to push.

XD is the 01 to 06ish? elantra, I have the manual trans from an 02 Elantra with the 2.0 beta 2 also from the same elantra and i like the gearing a lot.
