lol, very nice!!
i'm also sitting with a 1600 J2 Elantra. 303 000km
where did you get the suspension? price?
And what did you do with the brakes/hubs?
Mine now needs to have the head done, valves or sumthing is making a racket.

Hyundai's can make big power.

Was done by a friend of my dad. I'll get his details and pm it to you.
Can't remember the price but it wasn't to bad.
The brakes are still the normal set up but i'll be changing to a 2004 tiburon braking set up in the near future. Break docter in Germiston will be doing the conversion on that!!
(I must admit my brakes don't last all that long):D

Must say though that the car is insanely tough!!
Takes alot of punishment!!

Yeah dude I know, a mate of mine had 1 exactly like mine and it pushed a 147kw at the wheels untill he hit a tree in kempton park..now it reaches 0-60km in about 20 sec on the back of a tow truck.

hehehe.

other cars wich ppl allways underestimate is daewoo.

wanna know why they make huge power, and I mean really huge?

cause it's opel :)

all opel parts! My tuner only uses daewoo 16V heads in all his builds. His 400KW, my mates 264KW, my 153KW corsa, all daewoo heads.

and some other parts too!

That's true now that you mention it.
A guy with a silver daewoo pulled in next to me in boksburg down towards the centre and he destroyed me..His car was turbo'd though..Mmmmm Microwaves go can go fast:D

I've heard that opel and daewoo motors are compatible, eg the parts... ?

yes Daewoo bought all opels plans and stuff many moons ago. so their parts are 100% sharp hence me heaving a daewoo 16V head on my Corsa Gsi

Is'nt a T4/5 Turbo too big for the 1600 Elantra engine?

it is a bit big yes but it is bored out to 1800. remember ppl are running T66 turbo's off 2.0 so it's fine.

He WIIIIIIILLLL have turbo lag and lots of it, but once that boost comes in it will kick HARD
