Can you awd swap that Hyundai?


Me too! Not too many people push the engine fully stock. I plan to. The few that have, managed to put down some good numbers.

And apparently you can, although I haven't seen anybody successfully start and finish it. The Tucson is built on the same platform as the Elantra, and it's also offered with the Beta II engine I have and AWD. The 5 speed out of that is confirmed to fit the Elantra, but like I said nobody went much further than that. The Evo 4-9 engine/trans has also been swapped into this chassis too. Apparently all but 1 mount lines up. I'm sure with the right knowledge, skills and money somebody can swap a rear end into the car to make it all work. I'm not going to try though.

Yeah, it's very beefy, very heavy, and extremely ugly. I think my exhaust manifold has more in common with most of the women in Brantford than anything hahaha Surprisingly even after 10+ years of use there's not a single crack in it.


Read this article and ask why he didnt go awd?? Same rear as a 86 corolla ?? Galant rear suspension??
