hi

first sorry for my bad english but i'm french from Guadeloupe .

i will try to share with u my drag accent/pony



the car project is based on a 99 hyundai accent/pony X3 1.5 DOHC 16V it's called "GT" edition in my country .



but i don't keep the 1.5 dohc engine and it's been swapped by a 2L DOHC BETA 1 engine from a 99 hyundai Tiburon and going to be Turbocharge with a megasquirt based stand alone completely build by me on my own spec .



some pict to show you the thing :



i had started from scratch and need to build the passenger side engine mount to fit the tiburon engine there . after that i order a cheap chinese no name turbo kti on ebay to get some stuff i will need later , sell other and use the T3.T4 turbo and manifold to prototyping and blank assembly the whole .















i'm going water/air intercooler , the car is build for performance only , no daily driver care .

after some fiting and custom build mount :

















remove everything to clean the engine bay and change the color of the paint to match the final car color :









to install the fidanza alumnium flywheel i had need to make an adapter , the part exist stock in the automatic version but in my country auto car isn't easy to find :



the one i have done :





stock HYUNDAI version :





after assembly













start reassemble the engine bay





at this moment everything is brand new or have been rebuild to better than new spec with race or stock part , anti rust and black ht paint .







my big brake kit is a mix between many hyundai car

hub and disc from tiburon , double piston caliper from a hyundai santa fé













Custom build passenger engine mount and polyurethane filled .





all the engine mount have been filled like this to stop engine mouvement .

the mecanic fuel pressur gauge is replaced by an electronic one .





now i work on the intercooler water piping and the coper heat exchanger for the ice box









in this configuration i have 2 setting , a road setting where the water will pass on a radiator and don't need ice for daily driving by example , and a race setting when the radiator is bypassed and i use ice to get lower water temp .





some bling lol :











hi had some overheat issue so i change my radiator setup with a oem fan rather than the ebay slim fan help me reduce the engin temp :



old :





new .

 

first test on my chinese turbo kit @ 0,4bar and no tune .

Good show sir!

I wanted to find a Pony truck and give it the same treatment, but that's all dreams. You brought it to life in the coupe!

 

Just wanted to pop in and say great build so far!! I've always wanted to do an Accent build but haven't gotten around to it. Keep it up and get us some HP numbers

 

That's a lot of work and quite a project. Did I see that you have megasquirt info displaying on an Android device? That's pretty awesome. I have no sound at work, I may be mistaken.

 

This is my kinda build!! .. I wanna see a 10 sec pass outta her!!,Can't go wrong with ATELIER HP Did'nt know a getz tranny would bolt up!?, I use a elantra tranny for a longer 4th gear.,did you install lsd?

 

Looks like a very fun and time consuming build.



But I have to ask, who was the genius who hooked up the wastegate top port to the oil pressure line? LOL

 

thanks for your comment i will try to answer in order





the pony in my country are more popular thant the first tibby . the tibby was a berline car as the elantra , and people prefer french or european car . it not very long time that hyundai comme popular here .



i don't think a would be able to give you dyno number because there isn't any dyno here lol



the best i can do is measure with embedded device .



the megasquirt is home made with a bluettoth port com so i can get info on any android or pc bluetooth device .



my first work is computer and i have build many embedded computer so make the both communicate it's just a fun time .



i dont' have lsd for now for 2 reason .

the getz gearbox is a diesel one (CRDI) so it's longer thant the longer elantra gearbox .

so officialy and don't know which lsd it take because it's look like a std accent gearbox , i use the stock pony axle but i don't know if internally it's the same .

i haven't finish to test it to see if the engine is happy with the longer gear ;



so when i will sure i will buiy a qaife .



for the last , the wastegate is not conected to the port oil lol , its just to protect the port from debris the time i cut some metal .
