  • Yet another project.... hyundai accent

    So here's another project i've had my hands on lately

    it's my buddy's 00' Hyundai accent, he has had lambo doors on it for quite a while now and then he bought a body kit for it and has been slowly working on the body work over the passed 2 years, and just this passed week got the engine bay sprayed...... the pics don't do the color justice, it looks more purple in the pics but it's a really nice color blue and it just sparkles in the sun

    so since the engine bay is painted, the guy at the body shop would like it to move under it's own power before it goes to get the rest of the body sprayed so we dropped in a 2.0 tiburon engine into it, hoping to have it fired up tomorrow

    anyway, here's a couple pics for those who are into hyundai's





    I'll try to get some better pics of it tomorrow when i go back to help him finish it up

    1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

    If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

          I don't think he got much details on that swap when he first got the 2.0, oh well, we'll probably turbo it later on haha

          But here's a couple more pics of it, didn't get it running today though

            for some reason I've always been fond of the blitz kit.

                      That's an excellent color choice. Will the Tiburon motor be removed from the car to make way for a different swap?
