Re: Stellar CXL 2.0
Hello! I've got a 1986 Hyundai Stellar GSL - 1.6L / 5spd. Nice car if a bit under powered. Mine is rusty so currently I'm chopping it up to as a donor car for a Lotus Seven clone. If anyone needs interior, sheet metal, trim, etc send me a PM and you have it for the price of postage. Here's a little Hyundai history I wrote for the Sevens clone folks.
The in early to mid eighties Hyundai entered the Canadian market place (not the US) with two cars - the Pony and Stellar. These are quite useful if you want to build a close to "book" Locost. Back in South Korea Hyundai was building Ford Cortina MkIIs under license. They soon decided to make a car of their own, the Pony, and they used various pieces from the early Cortina. One piece was the so-called "English" live rear axle, which is also shared with the Ford Escort MkI and MkII. The engine and transmission were sourced from Mitsubishi, the styling from Italdesign. The Pony received a face-lift to become the Pony II and this was exported to Canada in five door hatchback form from 1984 to 1987. So from the Pony we can get our Escort MkII rear axle and a one-piece prop shaft. The other car was the Stellar. It was launched in 1983 to replace the old Cortina they were building under license. It was essentially a Ford Cortina MkIII with a styling again by Italdesign and engine and transmission from Mitsubishi. Starting in 1987 it was updated to Stellar II, which has flush fitting headlamps and MacPherson strut front suspension. So from the 1984-1986 Stellars we can get the front spindles and any other various Cortina pieces. The 1987+ ones are not suitable. The engines available in the Pony and Stellar were Mitsubishi 4G33 1.4L and 4G32 1.6L fours. They are sturdy, uncomplicated engines with points ignition and a manual choke two barrel down draught carburetor. The 1.6L version gives 74hp and around 93lb-ft of torque. A later descendant the 4G37 1.8L lives in the first generation Eagle Talon / Mitsubishi Eclipse. Stellars used a KM119 5spd manual box. The Pony was available with either the 5spd or a 4spd. The later Stellar II could be had with a Mitsubishi 4G63 2.0L I4. |

Re: Stellar CXL 2.0
=Trying to keep the thread alive=
Good work Dentures, been trying to find out about the Stellar myself lately. Found one for sale near by in mint condition, think i'll get it- hopefully! The Stellar apparently used (the 1600 this is mainly used in Europe) the 1970's Mitsubishi Galant engine, namely the 1600 'Sport' engine, less the 'Sports' twin carb ( ) It used mostly mk5 Ford Cortina running gear and floor pan for the mk1 Stellar ('Hyundai' badge in middle of grille?) and for the mk2 only the rear axel and suspension remained that of the mk5 Cortina from then using Mitsubishi brakes etc Because of its Ford and Mitsubishi history many Mitsu and Ford engines will fit straight into the Stellar including (UK Spec cars) the Cortina/Granada's 2.3 V6 Cologne, 2.8 V6 Essex and various Mitsu engines including several 2.0turbo units (or so ive been told) Im currently trying to find out what carbs will fit straight onto the Stellars 1600.

Re: Stellar CXL 2.0
so is your 1600 a Ford or Mitsu motor? If its the same as mine Mitsubishi one (ie 4G32) then the intake manifold complicates things as the thermostat is built in and coolant runs through it. Apparently helps emissions but makes manifold swapping or making really ackward.

Re: Stellar CXL 2.0
1600 Mitsubishi. Ahh right i see, thats quite annoying
Ah well, also rencently learnt that the turbo from the Dodge/Mitsubishi Colt or Mitsubishi Cordia fit straight on, might be worth looking into |

Re: Stellar CXL 2.0
its a puny turbo though. Manifolds might be useful with a larger turbo.

Re: Stellar CXL 2.0
Ok here are the pics of the Stellar.
Needs one or two things doing to it, alternater is screeching, passenger door makes lots of noises, drivers leccy window needs fixing as does boot and one of the rear doors centeral locking. Other than that its great, goes well (if slowly) and is lovely and clean! Graham |

Re: Stellar CXL 2.0
I have a 1987 Stellar CXL 2.0 Canada-spec Stellar and want to replace the McPherson struts. Hyundai Canada says there are exactly eight front struts left in all of Canada, and only for the left-hand side (really). Anybody know what aftermarket strut could be substituted? I'm guessing Hyundai probably bought the part from Mitsubishi, so perhaps there is a Mitsu model... The Hyundai part numbers are 54650 and 31613, if that helps...

Re: Stellar CXL 2.0
i own an86 stellar canadian spec, my father purchased the car new and it has been my vehicle since i have been able to drive. i felt the car had potential and looks cool so i did a few thing to it. Lowered on 17"rims and tires, 4 wheel disc brakes front cross drilled rotors, sonata 2.4 multi port fuel injection, (still workin out some bugs but it runs and drives) eagle talon turbo clutch and lightened flywheel, 87 headlights with bmw h.i.ds and a sweet stereo set up. just some of the things i have done. will post pics sometime when i can.
