Hi Tom, isn't it great to be back! :lol: it's made my week that's for sure!

The car I've been driving is a 2002 Sonata 4cyl........I have 17'' White alloy mixed with polished alloy wheels, with Yokohama tires, I have a custom, shock sensor, tilt/motion sensor, pager alarm that will alert me if anything is being done to my ride, and a custom stereo system, too much to list.......I'm looking for some engine mods, exhaust, and lowering springs.......I was thinking of doing an engine swap with the V6 sonata engine, and getting a 6-Speed trans from the new Tibby dropped in there if possible, any pointers?????

The sonata only came with orange indicators here, i think it is Australian law that indicators must be orange. But don't quote me on that.

V6 Engine in a Sonata - I think you might be dissapointed with the power gain. I recall reading the 1/4 mile times between the two cars in a magazine, and it really wasn't all that great in comparison, sure the torque would be great, but since most races are on a flat road, that won't help all that much. Switching to manual is a good idea, depending on how much you want to spend, i still believe the ultimate is to do the 4G63T engine swap, but if you want to keep your original motor, then I would look at filter, exhaust, cams, advanced timing, and proper suspension. A heavy stereo system is going to hinder your handling, and performance.

is it possible to do custom clear corners like the ones in my pic? is it just an insert or the assembly that's orange? b/c if it's an insert, PM me and i'll tell ya how to do it.
