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.

Not bad. And probably discounted all to hell with the 2011 in dealerships now.

Plans = not many. Just doing the mods I really liked on the XD



so far I deleted the resonator... in a way.....





and I did this. Got worried... you could REALLY see the hyundai and elantra. A quick search here and went and got the polishing compound stuff recommended. Worked great.



On order,

elantra wagon sway bar and bushings

HID kit from Paul

K&N drop in.. really dont see an aftermarket intake being alot better than stock



Need to order:

Grill

short throw (stock on the wagon)

and.. rims once I sell the 20s the sonata had.



White rims on a white car? hmmm maybe?

Dam u gave me white rim flashbacks





Ive seen white on white and I like it but as a former white rim owner I wanna say they are a pain in the ass to keep clean and stain free. If you go white make sure it is simple to clean.
