On the Accent X3 (1996-1999) harness you can use any Elantra 1996-2000 or Tiburon 1996-2001.
You have to extend the cables for the IAC, Coolant Sensor, Temperature Gauge Sensor and Cam Sensor.
Any other info you need?

Thank you for makin that clear. I hate to bother you but I must continue to pick your brain, wht factory mounts can i use? bc mine is a 1996 the mounts on the trans arent there. I have the tib crossmember but id like to use the 1996 trans jst bc I have it alredy, will tht work? final question I need a tib flywheel, '95 scoupe turbo clutch kit, '99 accent release bearing to make the trans work correct? ok I lied this is the last one, obviously if Im able to use the factory side mounts my Cv shafts will fit?

the factory mounts won't work if you use 96 tranny and crossmenber. you have to fabricate new ones or get the tranny and the crossmenber from a 97-99. I recommend you get the things from the 97-99 it will make your life easier. But if you do this you can only use one of the front screws.
If you use the things from the 97-99 you can use everything except the pasanger side mount OEM. That one you will have to fabricate it. I did it modifying the Accent OEM.
The clutch you have for the tranny will work. Another thing is that we use the starter from a Mitsubishi 4G6X engine (Ecplise Turbo, Galant, etc) because the Tiburon's starter's solenoid can get in the way of the tranny's cables.

you can use the OEM (75 Amp) but I recommend using the Beta's (95 Amp).
The tranny depends on what you want, I personally use Alpha because of the higher FDR.
Also you can temporary use the starter from the Alpha, but you'll fry it!
And I forgot to tell you if you use the OEM for the pasanger side you should use silicone rubber or something to make harder because it's not designed to handle the extra weight.
