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 was just wondering do you think the turbo for the elantra 1.8 or tiburon 1.8 would fit for the 1st gen eclipse 1.8. Just a question coz I have a friend of mine who has an eclipse and was wondering if it would fit. eek.gif rolleyes.gif

No, the beta is significaly different than the Mitsu motor. The exhaust manifold bolt pattern is different, as is the physical location of the exaust port openings.

The OLD Elantra IS a mitsu motor, so the DSM Motor and turbos DO bolt up to them and vice versa.
