zoom,
Thanks

[KarbonFiber]

Nice info there Rory

[KarbonFiber]

I will have to take some interior pics, esp at night. The dash is stunning. All blue, a few people said it looks like the cockpit of an aircraft.

Nice info there Rory

When you drop the Elantra to service, N&M will leave the service schedule (a kind of spreadsheet) inside the car for you. Keep it for future reference when the car is off the warranty and if you choose the get the car serviced outside of the firm.

I followed that service schedule with an Accent that was bought new from the firm. Kept the car for 10 years and 343,000 km (only once the engine had to be re-built and I used genuine HMC parts) without any major problems.

i had a 1.6L DOHC 16V engine in my elantra and it was so nice, the engine was nice and quiet and to tell you the truth it bother me real bad when i had to change it.

What happened to it?

I hope you at least changed it out with a Mitsu engine (older Hyundai engines were based on the Mitsu designs) and not some Nissan SR engine.

[*Nebula*]

to late brother SR it is..... but it riding good, atleast it getting meh to point a to point b but ah still feeling real dread boy...but what is the price range for a mitsu engine?

[Black_Elantra]

Nice rides people

[G-T]

I wish I could buy this beauty for Christmas

[acesinghit]

^^^^$162,000.00 TTD Vat Inclusive....

I'll just wait for roro and get a better Elantra than the N&M model.

[KarbonFiber]

When you say better, what exactly do you mean.

^Zh@ne,wah yuh mean bleh..that is a really great idea to avoid wasting money on Hyundai parts, finding an alternative route...

^^^sorry if i am made u think otherwise but to answer your question, in roro when the new model comes down, its gonna have alot more features (as per the usual) as opposed to the local one (which is pretty loaded already) but I can get more at a more affordable price. Maybe the roro version may give us side impact and curtain airbags, 2.0 CVVT engine, cruise control, traction and stability control etc. for about $100k.....I'll grab one! U know what people generally say, we in the 3rd world get watered down cars as opposed to those in NA, Europe, Japan, Singapore, Australia etc..

<-- update

[Zh@ne]

^^nice thinking about getting the same for my car what brand and model oil and water gauges did you used?

[Yeo]

Click mih 2nr ride for details.

I used the oil-filter adapter for the oil-pressure and oil-temp senders.
http://prosportgauges.com/oil-filter-adaptor-plate.aspx

I have an electrical gremlin problem that the dealership cannot replicate where if the a/c is on in the rain at night, my temp gauge climbs into the red, BUT the engine/water temp is actually normal.

So, I installed the Cyberdyne digi water-temp gauge so I can keep an eye on things and just totally ignore the stock gauge. I installed a water-temp sender radiator hose adaptor http://prosportgauges.com/water-temp-se ... aptor.aspx so I won't be using the stock sender or location in case the fault is there.

big up to ikenty

Point taken , I can't argue with that just not a nissan fanatic thats all.

ikenty1 car wukkin, you all need to find a bigger road for interms of safety, it seem as thought the cars passed inches away form the spectators

[APACHE]

ah hadda represent
98' accent , red top sr20 under about 9 psi



everyting stock for now

looking for rear wheel discs tho

[Zh@ne]

^^ kool thanks man. I purchased the autometer phantom series oil pressure and water temperature gauges from SR , because i to believe that the stock temperature sensor does not work accurately.

Also did you get an exact size pillar pods for you sonata to fit flush or you had to modify one? i.e. the side post i am talking about not so much the gauges.

[burn1212]

aye anyone knows which sset of rear disc breaks would work on the accent 95-98 model. let me noe thanks...by d way i hav sum pics of my accent i'll post it up wen i get a chance

I know someone who used the Tiburon's disc brakes on an Elantra.

What about the 1st generation Tiburon's disc brakes?

[Yeo]

Also did you get an exact size pillar pods for you sonata to fit flush or you had to modify one?

I'll take a pic tonight and post it for you.

[Yeo]

I did not use a pillar pod, I just attached them directly to the a-pillar,





This is what and where I ordered the gauge cups/mounting accessories from.

[Zh@ne]

^^Much thanks might order some as well.

I am assuming that the oil pressure you are using is of the electrical type any problem with it thus far in terms of the readings ?

Cause i have heard that it gives wrong readings when the oil temperature changes?
I have the mechanical one but i not really too keen on running a live oil line in the inside of the car.

[Yeo]

none at all, the top gauge I have is the oil temp gauge, and all the gauges work quite well. So much so, I am thinking of getting rid of the oil temp gauge on the top, and replacing it wita voltage gauge.

[rcadiz]

Figured i would add these to the mix.
Hyundai Scoupe 1995 Turbo
Set up to Rally
Stock 1500cc
Upgraded Radiator, Intercooler, Wolf ECU, tuned for C16 Fuel only, Roll Cage, Sparco Seats, Leda Suspension, AP front brakes, Suzuki GTI discs in the rear. Bunch of other fun stuff.
So far its crossing 200bhp, we'll see just how much after the anti-lag is connected

Look out it in Rally Trinidad 2008

[chit8238]

i would like an honest opinion on something here....i did a project b4 where i put a CA18 in a KE70 corolla and now i want to know which is a better choice to "fix up" in terms of modifying and stuff...the hyundai sonata or the CA18 in the corolla..can u put pros and cons for me plzzzz...i really am torn between what to do here..thanksssss...[/quote

can anyone tell me which project they would choose and why...

33 hertz,
I have a 98 accent and I have the identical problem! It takes 3 tumbles after sitting idle for a few hours. After sitting overnight it takes 4. It races then dies down and repeats this cycle every 15 seconds or so until it warms up. Then it idles reasonably well. My mechanic sais it was the injectors that needed cleaning. He cleaned them but it did not help. Also it seems tolack power but I had a 2000 model that was only 2 years old at the time it was stolen from me and that also lacked power. I don't know if it is just the engine design or if it may be spark or valve timing. Any experiences in this area will be appreciated.
