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 think that kit has been up there for months. I remember someone posting it earlier this year. Wonder if it was sold and they're producing more? What are the odds that two different units are selling in 6 months time?

I think its the same one it just bounces up and down in price. Sometimes its 1499 and sometimes its on sale for 999. I know Alpine ain't producing them anymore and RSide doesn't exist anymore.. lol

I forgot, Elantras are roomier than Tiburons so you can mix and match SC's and do a custom weld. We don't have this option with the RD Tiburons.



You guys got a link? I'm buying one right now. It must be the same one.



Brake light is Valeo, part number: 24200002. Made in France for MS-Design in Germany. I've contacted http://ssv.com.au/ to see if they have anything remotely similar.







The only other brake light with those proportions is on the Mitsubishi Lancer:

You guys know what's the widest and tallest size tire that can go on a 16 x 7.5 on this car? I wouldn't want to destroy these beauties, and want to absorb as much shock as possible.
