TONS of Accent owners here. You'll have to write more about your build since Im sure alot of people will have questions about it. Do you have any other pics of the car? Where are you from?

Was the engine a direct drop in, or did you have to fabricate custom engine mounts? What transmission are you using?

well the engine didnt make it me im a (carpenter my trade) but as specalist mechanic mounts where fabricted to fit hyundai same mounts and bolted half hyundai half toyota im using toyota box reason becouse when using high power a hyundai box isnt good plus toyota box have a high ratio example 2nd gear can go up 100km/h 5th gear can go up to 240 km /h


this was with the old engine swaped 2 toyota on this accent in only one year one munt was ready since it was a toyota but the other 3 mounts that sits the gearbox where fabricated an d the cost of them where around 400 euros
