Hi everyone,
I think I may have posted an introduction in the past...(i could be wrong) but RedZMan said for me to post another one, so here it goes!
I have a 2001 Tiburon...dark blue. I am just getting started in learning how to take care of it and fix it. I have been a long-standing member over at sr20forum.com and joined when I had an NX2000. Sadly, I wrecked it aobut 3 years ago and bought this car in its place.
So far I have been very appreciative of this forum because of all the tutorials and DIY section. I am confident that this place will prove to be a valuable resource for me in the near future, and I look forward to years of reading and posting here.
I have a few plans for the car. I am searching for a 1.8L intake cam, will be buying headers, am having a custom cat-back exhaust made for me, and have a cool Dynomax muffler that I found at a junkyard this weekend! I also am getting new belts, water pump and tensioner pulley for this weekend.
I'm also intrigued by those air-vent blue angel-eye LED's that I saw in another thread.
Ok, well, that's my intro. Hope you enjoy it.

Yeah, I've been gone for over 2 years and still feel welcome so...Welcome to the boards I guess. You should have fun here and it's pretty informative.

Welcome to the site mang!!
Post up some pics when you get a chance!
I'm the guy that makes the vent angel eyes, check out my thread here.
PM me if you interested! Don't mean to hijack your thread....
And paying that much for a 1.8L cam is a ripoff, unless it has better timing than a normal 1.8L cam. Theres guys on here that can get them for about $70ish from a junkyard... How much was the underdrive pulley though? nvm, I'll search...
