I was wondering if anyone has ever done this and if they could give me alist of the parts needed. I have a 98 hyundai accent 5spd that i paid 1k for and want to make it go.

no one has done it.
that is a lot of custom work but can be done, wound if you can take the beta 2 4 wheel drive out of the tucson and fit on the acccent

the rigoli accent is not a beta swapped accent though. it has a 4g63t.

this guy was asking about an awd beta accent. which to my knowledge the only one is the wrc accent which is turbo beta and awd.
Is there a place that we can order those parts from Hyundai.
what parts?

the wrc parts.... no

the tuscon parts? either a junkyard or new parts from the dealer
So the answer is Yes, it can be done with a bucket load of cash and the drivetrain part's of the Evolution from mitsubishi

along with blood, sweat, tears..Cola breaks and profanity.
I have a question.. somewhere i read that the Santa Fe and the Elantra share the same platform?

So.. crazy as it sounds... take the 4wd system off the Santa Fe and meld it into the Elantra?


There is NO WAY im going to do it.. just wondering if they do in fact share the same platform.. ive had conflicting answers on this one..
i think its santa fe and the sonota that share the same platform. elantra and tiburon share the same platform.
the santa fe is built on a modified or stretched version of the EF Chassis as in the sonata,

same as the azera which is a stretched NF Chassis as built on the NF sonata
The Tuscon shares some of the Elantra (XD) chassis.
you should just fabricate the entire project to save you money. Learn to weld and make your own tube fram, mounts and all the things you'll need to build this race car. the problem with alot of people is they think things are impossible. DONT BE THAT GUY! take your time and do it yourself. A freind of mine did a Mitsu Conquest and that car runs low 8s good luck.
