flywheels are a tad different. Elantra has a taller final drive.

other than that, you should be good to go.

I've check in my service manuals on manual transmission overhaul....and the 1.8 L 5 spd elantra do have a taller final drive.
Since the 1.8 and 2.0 are very similar and the 1.8 transmission will bolt up to the 2.0 Your acceleration times should improve?

hey whats up guys not sure the production date of the switch but the beta's used two revisions of the same trans the m5bf1 and m5bf2 the only major diffrence is in the 5 gear housing in the m5bf1 there is only a double staked retaining nut holding the fifth speed onto the shaft in the m5bf2 they incorporated a small retaining plate into the housing cover. see 1st through 4th gear are actually inside the trans case but 5th is in its own housing so had no support they changed the design to renforce the fifth speed. i can shoot some digital photos for you guys if you would like let me know.

You would accelerate less and have a higher top end.

*light bulb goes off in random's head*

You're doing a Auto To manual SWAP!!!!

From what I understand, you'll need to replace the mounts on both sides (tranny, and bolted to frame), and the rubber inserts that go with them.

5 stars for workedtib.

does the revised 5th gear retaining stuff mean you can put power into 5th gear without it shredding like it used to or is it still a weak link?
