attention elantra owners

[buraot]

So what mods do you have for your Elantras. I have some, most notably a 2.0L Beta engine swap, Lightweight Flywheel, and Coilovers (that are being repaired at Cruven right now), as well as a few audio mods. Haven't clocked it at a dragstrip. Future mods planned when budget allows is a Disco Potato turbo setup, with planned WHP around 200, stock internals.

How about you guys?

all stock sir...

2.0L with a lightweight flywheel... hmmmm... how heavy is the Elantra again? That should be good for a flat-8 second 0-100 km/h... or maybe less (old 2.0 Coupe with Beta engine - 7.6)... hehe... bring that baby over to the EB... I'd like to see what it can do against the Lynx...

I've heard that even with just a 1.8 swap that Elantras are pretty decent drag cars... but can you swap in the Coupe suspension and steering?

AFAIK 1100 kg. It's not a light car, but with the torque of the 2.0 and the flywheel, it feels like a CRDi Getz (which is my only other car BTW).

Why swap in the Coupe suspension and steering components? What would be the point in that? It would bolt-on anyway; both of them are the same car underneath.

As for bringing my Elantra to any EB, I would like to have it painted first. But before it gets painted it must first be turbocharged. So, that may take a long time before I show it to people with pride.

Ah... turbo. RE: suspension: heard that they were the same, but wouldn't the Coupe's shocks and springs be stiffer? And I think the steering might be tighter, but I'm not sure.

Hehe... turbo, lots of friends going down that road... as for me, I'm satisfied with having a great handling car with just a bit of speed.

Kudos on your car! Pics naman pag tapos!

Well I think coilovers would have more an effect on handling than changing to a stock suspension. I have a set that is under repair.

Yeah will keep people up to date.

hi.... i'm a former elantra sedan owner [99 model].

those of you are looking for genuine parts may want to try and contact Piyeza.
they have branches in pasay, cavite, las pinas and and i think, cabuyao or calamba.
for las pinas, the number is 8712206.
from what i've seen, even the casas sometimes gets their parts from Piyeza.
hope this helps.

I got a Elantra 99' M/T Wagon Edition...

Thanx for the info's...

[merc2007]

Iba ang codes na gamit ng Hyundai. Pati yung 4d56 nila DB-something ang tawag.

hi otep at mga elantra owners:
My current ride is a mitsu lancer el 1993. I'm planning to replace it with an elantra wagon (1997-1999 yr models). Based on your experience of owning and maintaining the elantra, I would like to know your opinion if my plan is a good idea in terms of the maintenance cost, supply of parts, and performance. Thank you and best regards.

based from experience, ayos naman. malakas ang makina, me mabibilhan ng parts, not to mention compatible ang ilang piyesa ng mitsubishi. lakas aircon kay lang di pa sya cfc134 ba yon?
medyo malutong nga lang ang plastic parts, tulad ng door locks, at yung sa power windows mechanism. check mo din yung high-tension wire. rgds.

Good Investment ang Elantra Wagon...Maganda ang makina, aircon system at luwag ng leg room compare sa ibang wagon...

As to parts and accessories...

Ang napapalitan ko pa lang naman ay ung power window mechanism nya driver side, motor not included at ung transmission support nya...

Orig parts ung napagkunan ko at kung i-compare mo ung price sa iba mas makakamura ka kung sa brand new kaysa surplus...

Lately napalusong ko sa baha ung Wagon...Magpapalit na ata ako ng starter...Hehehe...Nag stuck-up na ata...or baka solinoid lang...

[CooCkieXP]

Mine is elantra 1994 GLS sedan. So far, got no major complaints. But i'm planning to get new set of mags and tires... stock pa kasi. Ang mods na nagawa ko are: keyless entry w/ alarm, foglights (universal-type), 3rd brake light. In the future, I also want to upgrade my audio system so that i can play my ipod. Kaso I have to save money pa hehe..

Nakita ko ang latest model na elantra... ok na ok... superb!

Hello mga Elantra experts. I recently got a 2nd hand Elantra Wagon Matic 2000 mdl. Ilang km/liter ba talaga ang dapat itakbo nito kapag city driving? at pag long drive? Mine eh 5++ km/l lang pag city driving bakit ganon malakas sobra sa GAS, eh ang engine nya lang ay 1.6Dohc matic. Dinala ko sa Servitek at pina computerize diagnose test ko at may mga inadjust sila pero still ganon pa din, new spark plugs, tuned-up na, new air filters at na change oil na. Help naman ano pa kaya ang pwedeng gawin... Idle rpm ko pang walang Aircon eh 800rpm at pag naka on aircon eh 1000rpm, normal ba ito? Saan pede iadjust para tumipid sa gas...

5km/L lang ang inabot? well, thats's not normal. I had recently tested mine and i got 15km'L on hi-way and somewhere in the 12~13km/L city driving. 1.6DOHC 16 valve manual tranny ang sa akin. Sasabihin ko sana na you have your brakes checked, but I guess you've done that already at Servitek.. Hmmmm... Let's wait what the experts an say about your problem

jaguarpw, thanks sa reply. Sana may mga experts dyan na makatulong sa akin. masyadong malakas talaga sa gas sa size ng engine at body nya. Sana mayroon din mag reply ng same model and automatic din to compare notes...wait na lang ako .

niky thanks din sa reply mo sa kabilang forum , malakas syang humatak kaya I know hindi loose compression...

[lantraluvr1]

Last time I checked my mileage, my car does 6km/l (2.0 M/T). Remember that A/T's generally suffer from less mileage than manuals, and that the wagon is heavier than the sedan and the Coupe. It can also be driving habits, coz mine clearly needs improvement on that front.

HTH

Hi to everyone, I own an elentra 99, i would like to inquire if you can recommend where to look for body parts & spare parts particularly the Hood, headlights, signal lights & radiator. Best if may surplus. Thank you in advance for the help.

Does anyone knows the contact number of Marriona Trading? I checked with PLDT they do not have any record.

Thanks again.

[arielle.ford]

We have an elantra A/T 1997 model and is still a good ride. recently though malabo na talaga headlights nya. san kaya mura bumili ng replacement?

sabi ng pinagdalhan ko kung order daw sa hyundai 3 months pa kasi i oorder pa sa Japan and costs 12th per pair. Mahirap daw maghanap ng piyesa and isa lang nahanapan nila sa Banawe at 10 thou. Feeling ko masyadong mahal kaya umurong ako. You think kung kami ang maghahanap sa Banawe may makukuha kami? and do you have an idea on the cost? thanks ...i'm a newbie here

Hello po sa mga Hyundai elantra owners. I have an Elantra that's already 7 yers old ( nakuha ko sa francisco motors nung 2001 ) and so far okay pa siya. FC is between 9 and 10km/l and higher kung sa mga expressway. For parts, marami sa GOODGEAR sa Pasay ( tel # 8338382 ). Mura lang dito.
