Tiburon tranny swap question
So I am thinking about swapping my auto for a manual in my 99 tiburon, I seen a 98 Accent with a manual transmission for sale and was wondering if the 5 speed from the accent with a 1.5L motor will bolt up to my tiburon?
|
not a good idea. I personally pulled an alpha trans off the side of a beta that shot its input shaft into the bell housing.
The beta trans are not that expensive, go with what was made for it on this one IMO |
So dont get no accent or elentra trannys? Try to find only a tiburon transmission?
|
beta trans = tib and elantra.
|
The Elantra tranny actually has better gearing, so if you can get an Elantra tranny...do that. But like Wytch said...either a Tiburon or Elantra tranny will work since their both beta's.
|
Also there is some notching on the beta block that would need to be done to clear a spot for the clutch slave cylinder. This comparison was made with a 02 Accent 1.5L manual transmission and a 02 Elantra 2.0 Beta 2. I compared the beta 2 trans (Elantra) to the 1.5L Accent trans side by side when I was doing my beta swap, dimension wise they were almost identical down to the mount bracket mounting points. The major difference being, if I remember right, a bit longer and just a bit wider at the differential area were the axles go 1/4 inch wider on each side.

Why is that? |
^^What he said^^ This sounds like good news since I have the Elentra Trans, course im asuming this applies to beta 2 Elantras as well.
|
5th gear is longer on the elantra
|
blah, check the gearing. The ratios vary from year to year, there is a chart somewhere around here.
