When it comes to tuning, the Tiburon or Turbulence is not far behind... it's us whos far behind.

Check out diz links and post your comments.

I know thew Tiburon is some tight shit yo. This kid here had an auto tiberon that ran a 14.4 stock. Mad fast yo.

I know tiburons look fast, but i don't think they're that fast! 16.7 stock auto and 16.0 stock manual, chiki-de-check-it:

tiburons are poser cars, i had a friend race a tiburon and he was driving a mx-3 and beat the tiburon by a car length through each gear

heres what i got out of it

yo jong shin pae ee je ruel chag eul so ga ob seum ni da.

jong hak han joo so (url) ruel im lyak ha syo neun ji hak in ha shi go

da shi shi do ha sea yo.

i can read it but my mom never taught me how to speak it

Tiburons are NOT poser cars. The 4 cylinder is a mirror copy of Mitsubishis 4G63, and can handle quite a bit of power. The 6 speed is the same unit used in the Sentra Spec V, and the Nissans LSD bolts in. The factory shocks are quite stiff, and the thing handles pretty well stock. It rides smooth and stable at high speeds, more so than my car. Plus they look super cool from the back, with the low spoiler.

...My mom has one :lol:

so did hyundai buy transmissions from nissan, if yes/no whats the story behind that?

Don't know the story, but it's the same transmission. Reportedly the Tiburon did the shifter better though, getting rid of the clunkiness of the Spec V's shifter, but I dunno cuz I haven't driven a 6 speed Tiburon.

the new v6 gt's are pretty quick, took my friends 02 v6 accord by like a car

rofl, that's what I got 2. Japanese jibberish, the bastards

RiceRocket! Where'd your link go? All I got was a bunch of scribbling on a page.

your ignorance annoys me ITS KOREAN AND WE ARE NOT BASTARDS maybe its an honest mistake, but just so you know, there is a difference, between the two.

I am sorry but looks are all the V6 model has going for it. If the 4 cylinder truly is a 4G63, then color me impressed. The V6 however; is a pile of crap. Not only is it VERY slow but it also gets horrible gas mileage. From all the things I've read about this car none of them impress me. All I like are the looks, of the new ones anyway. The old ones are one of the ugliest cars on the road.

and how come the automatic gets better MPG in city than manual?? :eek7: :eek7: :eek7:

All I got was a bunch of Korean text and an arrow pointing at a pop-up :dunno:

Please tell me youre kidding right? I doubt a STOCK Tib can actually beat a STOCK GT, especially since thats what most stock 99+ auto GTs run.

i can tell you tomarrow, when my mom gets home from work, she wouldn't teach me to read, so i had to teach myself, the language is a whole nother thing. . . maybe college courses after i graduate

Thats an opinion. Ha j/k

As much as I hate to admit it, the Tibby 4's are actually related to my SR20DE.

The Mitsubishi 4's, the Nissan 4's, and the Hyundai 4's designs are all outsourced from the same Japanese engineering company. At least the 2.0liters anyway. With the manufacturer's then taking the design and doing what they want to do with it.

I read this somewhere while doing research about my car.

I also read in a forum somewhere that somebody actually decided to look at his Elantra's motor and, sure enough, it was badged a 4G63.

You can't ignore the stats:

Naturally-aspirated and stock, all three sets of motors all displace 2 liters, all of them make 140HP at right around the same areas in the powerband (between 6100 and 6500), and all of them make about 132ft-lbs of TQ.

My advantage over those guys is that my version of the motor is higher-revving (7,500RPM limit), and is in a 2,350lb car as opposed to 2,800 to 3,100lb cars:biggrin:. Oh yah, and the LSD:bigthumb:.

I have a friend with a highly modded eclipse that runs a Hyundai valve cover. It bolts on, man...

He tells people it's a Hyundai engine swap :lol:

hahaha, dood it was a joke. Lighten up, We like to run a loose crew round here ;) All I wanted was a damn link to wtf-ever he was talkin bout.

Did you do a swap, or did your Sentra come with the SR20DE? What would you have to do to make that a ...DET?

So, theoretically the Tiburon 4 cylinder is actually a decent car?

My Sentra SE-R comes with the SR20DE stock.

Technically, the simplest way to make it into an SR20DET is replacing the exhaust manifold with an SR20DET turbo manifold (bolt-on) with a turbo attached, of course.

The proper way is replacing the internals with SR20DET components. Although the SR20DE in itself has been known to hold boost up to 400HP with it's stock internals, it's still not designed for turbo. All SR20DET parts and peripherals are direct replacements for the SR20DE.

The cheapest way, however, is replacing my SR20DE with an SR20DET that already has the turbo internals.

Several Hyaundai cars, as well as the dodge colt, mitsu mirage, and a couple other cars will accept the 4G63 with minor modification. I saw a cool white hyaundai at RRE once that had the swap. Plain little boxy four door with a built 4g63. WHEE! There is also a Dodge Colt in Portland OR area that did a couple 11 sec runs at woodland dragstrip, but last I heard he didn't have the money to bring it up to "sanctioned drag specs" so they kicked it off their track.

Another fast racer screwed by draconian safety regs...

i can say that a tiburon is definitly a nice looking car, although it is not fast by any strech of the imagination.

A friend of mine pulled up next to a new v6 tiburon in his 1990 5.0 mustang that has over 200 thousand miles on it. once the light turned green the tiburon took off my firend didnt go that time, he just watched. Then after passing a couple more lights they got to another red, this time my friend waited for him to go pulled 1st gear to about 2500 or 3000 then pulled second from 2500 to about 4 or so and flew by that tiburon as if it were standing still.

and whoever said that a tiburon could run 14.5 or whatever from the factory is definintly wrong

I don't know if I would go that far :wink:

I was just trying to make a point that Tiburons have just as much, if not more, potential than most other cars in their class.

The Tib has a decent chassis (with totally hosed settings and too little rubber) and a gutsy motor that's just stirred through a widely spaced box. They're a little on the porky side for a car of their size (outweighed my Dad's Neon SportCoupe, and that thing was a comparitable tank) and certainly the steering feedback is numb as novacaine.

But, hey, if Paul Choiniere can drive them to three straight open class championships in SCCA Pro Rally, there's got to be something to them.

have any of u ever even owned a tiburon? seriously? i own two along with 20 other cars and ur gunna say they are crap without even owning one? First all u need is a weight reduction kit. and some tune ups and gess what im sucking over 600bhp out of my tiburon. maby if you knew how to tune a car then u could talk but why dont you guys just lut the grown ups talk and learn how to mod a car and suck all of the horssys out of it as possibel!!!!!!:banghead: :loser:

How exactly are you getting 600bhp? you have to have the most built Tibby ever... We raced a turbo one up here in a stock Redline... we won.

Tibby = ass ugly. I have experience with them, and can say they are pretty much turds.

The PT Cruiser engine is the SRT-4 engine, too... keep that in mind when talking about relations between engines :D

I...

I...

I don't even think the Gilmore applies here. This is just fail on every level. Please, just go away, and never bring a FIVE FUCKING YEAR OLD THREAD BACK FROM THE DEAD.

I swear, AF will let just anyone join these days. Oh, and for a "grown up" you can't spell for shit. I guess Nicklebe didn't work after all.

No pic stig :(

A 600bhp Hyundai and 9 muscle cars... awesome. What amazes me is that you looked through the archives to find a thread where the last post was in 2003, and start arguing with people who arent here anymore.

You sir, are a n00b. >:-(

Do I smell another Ripcat fail thread!?

ALL ABOARD THE FAILBOAT
