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.

cheap + coilovers = bad idea IMO. However, what is your version of cheap? Me being a cheapass.. that isn't very much before it goes over my cheap threshold.



After hearing of so many burned, im not ordering anything from shark.

That.. is my current problem. I am not sure, so many complaints. Kspec was awesome at one time, but ive heard of problems. I started a thread sometime ago. I may go look for it in a few and link it here.



Also, 1500 is a good price for good street coilovers and I wouldn't call that cheap for me, but I get what you are saying.



To me the cheap coilover are those 200 dollar coil OVER the strut things with the adjustable perch or however they work.

Where did you get the sway bar and spark plug wires from?



Also the 2009 elantra touring has a short throw shifter for $340 it has the reverse sticks and I'm almost positive they are the same engine and trans

sway bar was from Hyundai (I have a review thread in the suspension area with part numbers, etc) and the wires were from PRN (they had a group buy a short time ago)



340 for that... ehhh.. ouch. Where did you hear that the reverse sticks?
