O.K. Guys!......over the months to come there will be lots of info. posted on here about basic tuning; which really boils down to engine breathing improvements : often referred to as I.H.E. (intake, headers & exhaust).

Whilst these performance enhancements are easily (but not always inexpensively!) obtained, it is worth rememberlng that, at the same time, THE UPGRADING OF...

I have had a problem over that past about month, after about 30 mins of driving after taking off from a stop the car will hesitate and barely accelerate, takes about 10 seconds before it picks up. now after about 5 mins of driving the, car wont go at all when i hit the gas, it just revs. it happens when i am driving at any speed.

I have a 99 tiburon with a 2.0 4 cyl. Just started last week and the noise has been increasing. Only happens as I shift it into first and second gear and stops after that. As I let off the clutch going from neutral to 1st it sounds like the engine bogs down or has a tougher time to accelerate. Then the same into second. Once it gets moving into 3 gear and higher it goes away. I do not get...

Ok so I bought my 2000 tiburon about a month ago.. and everything was going swimmingly until my cigarette lighter stopped working. I run pretty much whatever I can on my cigarette lighter (phone charger, ipod, gps, etc) and not having it working is driving me crazy! so I looked under the hood for the fuse box and replaced a fuse, but it's still not working so I'm guessing htere is...

I just blew a hose on my way home and I cant seem to figure out which one it is i have a few images if anyone can identify it for me.






I'll give a brief description. It looks like it runs from the back of the engine block and runs along the passenger side wheel well.

Also along with that I've been losing power and acceleration. I cant seem...

My friend has a 2000 4-cylinder tiburon coupe. He already has had a custom cold air intake on the car which was place around 6 inches away from the engine block and also sat on top of the compartment very close to his carbon fiber hood. He says this intake sucks and takes in hot air, so he buys a new AEM cold air intake that sits very low, right on top of the splash guard. After we put it all in...

so i have seen some pictures of 2000 tiburons with different colored spark plug covers and i cant find them for sale anywhere.

i am pretty sure that they are called spark plug covers cuz that is what the repair manual for the elantra calls it. if thats not what they are called other places what i am talking about is the piece of plastic right on top of the engine that has the hyundai...

Hey all, I gots me a 99' tibby and she's not doin' well.


Issue 1) Same **** issue as THIS, it does not happen all the time but when it does it's damned embarrassing because everyone thinks that I'm revving to race them.

The old people REALLY give me a funny look.

So anyone else with this issue, did you get it fixed? What's the...

Hi everyone, I am new here. Let me start out by saying I am fairly unschooled with Hyundai as a whole. I am a Dodge musclecar guy (yes I have heard all knocks you can come up with and I know Dodge could have had better engineers), I am familiar with 1980s GMs because I have had several and I am getting to know Toyotas pretty well too. Well, I have been neglecting my GF car because we werent...

Hello, I am new here.
I just bought my '97 Tiburon on June 12th, 2008 and I would like to put in H.I.D lighting and I was wondering do I have to get a lamp kit? Or do I just purchase the bulbs?

Any help would be great.

Hey everybody, I've noticed my tibby start idling oddly and I'm sure it must be the fuel filter. I bought it with 100k miles on it and have driven it 30k without even being able to find the filter but I'm worried to let it go on longer... so here I am.

Any of you know where that thing is?

I have a project where I intend to use the older style MAF sensor (the one that does not have a rectangular box on top) from a 2001 tiburon.

I would like to know what the diameter of the intake piping is. Based on pictures on the internet, I gather it is 2-3 inches, but I can't be more exact than that.

And using 6500RPM redline, 2.0L, 80%VE, I'm getting a high end...

Need advice on parts

Hello,

I am a new owner of a 2000 Tiburon, I don't know much about cars.
I need a major body job and have got a first estimation about $1400 which include a new front/rear bumper
and a whole body paint job.
My first question is:
Where could I get those bumper cheaper or should I let them order those bumpers.
My seconde...

I've got a 2000 RD Tiburon auto transmission that has a very serious vibration when at idle but only in a forward gear. Car has been running fine for 100K miles until this week!

While in park, reverse or neutral, car is smooth with no noticable vibes. But if you place in a foward gear while at idle, vibe is very rough and uncomfortable. As soon as you increase the rpm or take...

im looking for a performance exhaust for my 98 tib and i really have only found one at shark racing for 600 and i was wondering if anyone knew of some other ones. and i really dont want to go on ebay to get one

hey does anybody know of any really good spark plugs and or ignition cables for a 2000 tiburon. i heard that the E3 spark plugs are really good but i dont know what is false advertising because there is too many different kinds claiming to be the best out there

I have to replace all of my wheel bearings every 6 months, I've even had to replace the same bearing twice in the same month. I know it's because most if not all bearings for the 2001 tiburon are not sealed. So are there any sealed wheel bearings that will fit?

I have a 2000 Tiburon Automatic. It starts fine and when I put it in reverse to back out of my parking space there is no problem. But when I put it in drive and start to drive it often stalls out. If I hit the gas hard it goes but then will stall out sometimes when I come to a stop. It always starts back up OK, just will stall at times. Does not happen always but often enough to make it a...

Ok long story short... bought car (2000 4cyl.) in April. Guy told me he does not have the little "key" to disable the IMMOBILIZER thingy under the steering wheel, but the car turns on. Great car.. today my battery died. Replaced battery.. Now car will not start without the little IMMOBILIZER being deactivated. I'm very sad about this. Hyundai said the manufacturer of this...

Tiburonians,

I have a brand new set of tail lamps that will fit a 00-02 Tiburon, asking $75. I paid $150, but need to get them out of the house. Please let me know if interested or have any questions or concerns. Thanks!

Was wondering if the NGK Platinum Spark Plugs as special as they advertise?

Hey Guys & Gals,
Recently bought a short shifter from...yes...u guessed it EBay. The description said it would fit my model year but actually it only fits the years above my model. So as most people would do, im now trying to sell it. I bought the shifter for 9.99 and shipping was 12.95.

Im going to sell it for the same price but i dont know about shipping. if i get offers ill...

Hello all,

My tiburon has been to the dealer twice and they can't find anything wrong with it. (of course). The car starts fine but once I start going, each time I come to a stop, it will rev between 2500 down to about 1500, up and down and up and down a few times and will then settle down to 800-1000. Sometimes it will just keep going down and stalls. It always starts back up again...

Hey Guys,
New to this thing and i just started using it today when i tried to install my short shifter and couldnt since...well, basically the shifter didnt look like it would fit and i was missing parts.

greetings,
When one's hood flies off the car it's time to get a new one. Where (besides a dealer) does one find one?? It's for my son's car and he found one at composite-werkes. Has anyone ever heard or dealt with them? What other options do we have?
Thanks, J

ok i have an 00 tiburon and all winter so far when i'm idling it starts shaking fairly badly my belt seems to be worn pretty good but im not sure if this is the problem or not so if anyone knows what this could possibly be that would be great, the steering wheel and car just seems to shake while idling but not while reving or driving thanks

Hi,

I have a 2001 Tiburon and am experiencing a problem that my mechanic can't seem to figure out...

At 3000 RPM (and accelerating), there is a "muscle car" noise and vibration. It goes away as soon as I've passed 3300-ish, but whenever I'm on the freeway, 3000 rpm is pretty much where my cruising speed is so I spend a lot of time with it vibrating and...

Intro and thanks to all that are reading:

My wife and I have a 98 Hyundai Tiburon (Standard) and it has terrible wiper issues not to mention many other issues. However, before replacing the whole wiper motor I simply want to confirm that it is not something else entirely or a quick fix (god if it were only that easy ;)) Well let me give you a history of the vehicle and its issues before...

My gilrfriend has a 2000 Tiburon. When you turn the headlights on the tail lights stay illuminated wheter you are on the brakes or not. Also you can press the brake pedal with the lights off and all the lights light up like you have turn the driving lights on. Does anyone know what the problem could be?

Hello everyone,

I have a 1997 Tiburon and I have been getting a CEL for the past week or so. When I initially read the codes I got a low voltage on the upstream sensor and then the second time a high voltage on the upstream sensor again. After clearing the codes the car run without the CEL coming on for a couple of days and since then I keep getting a P0141 code every day. I know this...

I bought this 2000 Tiburon and it had a after market exhaust on it the problem I am having is it got the code p0422 and the dealer said the cat is bad and needs to be replaced. My question is how can I tell what converter is on there and will any cat work? The car seems to be loosing power and slow acceleration.

i just rebuilt a head and torqued it to the block in the proper sequence to 26 ft lbs and layed the cams in and torqued the cam bearing caps down to 10-11 ft lbs and pored some oil in the head and was wondering if it should be hard to turn the timing cam gear by hand with a wrench.......it turns easy untill it pushed the spings down till the lobe is about to be strait down and the valve fully open...

Its a 2000 tiburon and both the turn signals and flashers do not work, i checked the bulbs and the fuses. Any ideas to what the problem could be???


Thanks

Hello good people!

I tried to find something on internet by myself but did not had any luck!

I would like to fit better transmission on a 1996 Tiburon, 2.0iSE. The stock tranny is glitchy and I would like to swap it with better and newer one (maybe one from later models of Tiburon).

I would like to know which transmissions could be regularly fitted on 96...

I recently purchased a 99 Tiburon and am having many problems trying to figure out how to take the dash apart.

I have all the screws out and it is loose but I can't seem to get my hand into the area to unplug all the things connecting the...

I'm thinking about changing out my regular headlamps for hid.

I was wondering if anyone knew of any sights that had any tibby specific conversion kits.

Also are there any after market headlights? as in different style. I know you can buy the European tail lights i was wondering if there were any headlights to choose from

just wondering what happens if you take out both the cat and the muffler and just have piping straight from the motor?

Hello All!

I've owned a 2000 Hyundai Coupe 2.0 SE Auto for a few months now, but hardly driven it as I've replaced near everything (including the transmission).

I've had my Tiburon for about 3 years now and its been great. Just 2 days ago the radio started acting up. When I tried to turn the sound down, it went up.
