Sorry guys, while deleting a a rude & irrelevant response from someone, I accidentally cleared the whole topic!.

I think porting /polishing a normally-aspirated Alpha engine really is a waste of money...........a CAI & cat-back exhaust are really the only cost-effective mods. & these might give you another 8/9 b.h.p..

Actually the best mod. for this car is to fit a 2.0 Beta engine from a Tiburon =137 b.h.p.!.

Newbie here, so hello to all!

Recently bought a S-Coupe 1.5 Turbo. Hallelujah! That turbo sounds gorgeous!

We were giving it some stick against a Ford Focus 2ltr tonight and the Scoupe topped at just over 105mph in 5th gear???? Seems ridiculous, especially considering most sites say it should do 127mph. The acceleration of it is really good. Not timed, but about 8sec to 60 I'd say...The Focus didn't do much on acceleration.

Any ideas why the car is not going to it's full potential on top end?

Car has just had full service, which included, Leads, Filter, Cambelt, new exhaust, etc etc - Cost quite a lot of money. Only thing that was not changed was the spark plugs, as my local garage can't get them, but he cleaned them and said they've not long been done.

Also, is there a good place on the net to find cheap parts, as parts are hard to come by here in England, they're quite rare. Really need spacers for the rear wheels as they sit in really far.

Hope someone can help me out.

Thanks!

I was in a horrible accident today! My car, and the other guys car (BMW) are both totaled.

I have bruising from my neck to my lower back and am on major pain killers. My girlfriend is still in the hospital! She went unconscious for a while, then woke up. They found in her scans that she had a ruptured spleen and a lot of internal bleeding! She has had surgery and they said she seems to be recovering well. Her mom would not allow me to stay the night with her, because they only allow one person to stay in the room, and it's her! I'll be there again first thing in the morning!

Please keep us, especially my girlfriend, in your prayers!

Thanks guys,
Nick

(((Now also, what to do with all the suspension I just ordered?!?!?!)))

A friend of mine recently told me that if I could get his 91 scoupe running I could have it. He told me that he replaced the fuel pump on it and it hasnt run since. (Sat for 3 years). It doesnt seem to be getting spark..I tried the old screwdriver trick and nothing came of it...I replaced the rotor but the new cap I got was the wrong one so I couldnt tell if that was the problem..i did the screwdriver trick to the wire coming from the coil pack and got no spark..i also replaced the fusible links box because the one that was on it was corroded to all ****...im going to try a new coil pack but im starting to run out of ideas..its getting gas but not spark..any ideas on what else I can try? Can it be the computer? Any help would be appreciated...you can post here or feel free to contact me at mudvayner_2002@hotmail.com. Thanks!

Hello everyone! I have 1994 Scoupe. My water radiator leaks ( I`m not sure if it`s called like that in english) and I need to replace it. I`m having problem with finding it here. Does anyone know, can it be fitted from Accent or some other Hyundai ( without any changes on car)?

Does anyone know the site where u can order this bumper?

I heard that they make them in korea or japan they are plastic at fit perfect, they have room for an intercooler too.

my old reliable,

I loved my car so much, you can see it in the way i make it shine. no other scoupe here in cebuphil is that smooth and shimmering.



was running 120km/h by the time i hit the neck of the curve overtaking inside from outside then suddenly trying to avoid a stupid driver ahead...
next thing i know was flying in the air sideways before hitting a full stop










my prayers with you ZeroPunk
know what your going thru

we were in the hospital for more than two weeks
I broke my right elbow into pieces my upper arm in half, and ended up with
2 titanium alloys in my whole arm.
my wife had an open fracture on her left heel.

i flew off halfway through the windsheild but my arm was what kept me from falling off the pavement, it was held off by the dashboard that is why it ended up with two broken bones in different places

now we can't recover financially, our hospital bill soared to half a mil

Hi,

First time posting in this 'ere forum and hope that I don't break any rules if I do anything wrong...

First off, my boot release button does not work, fuse is OK so wonder what else to check before megging down the line, any ideas?

Secondly, the bloke who owned the car before me, installed a super duper stereo but in doing so broke the dashboard side retainers on the facia where the stereo goes, any ideas on how to effect a discreet repair or somewhere I can screw into or should I make a pair of brackets and screw onto those?

Lastly... central locking, mine doesn't have it or does it? Finding it unusual for a modern day car with leccy windows and PAS not to have central locking and the ubiquitous sunroof either, it is the SE and someone I am in contact with thru eBay said his one had central locking on and also his car had A/C hence no sunroof so looking for some guidance there on model specs if poss.

If it is the case there is no central locking, anyone got any experience of fitting remote aftermarket systems? The one I have my eye on has also a widget for doing the boot hence the questions about the boot release and wondered how easy/hard this is going to be or just not bother if its too difficult.

Addendum:

That light built into the boot spoiler, the prev owner says its a reflector only, is this true or has he told me porky pies ^^?

Cheers

1. Lowering Springs (PI)
2. Struts (Monroe GasMatic)
3. Shocks (KYB Gas-A-Just)
4. Swaybar (don't know the brand...custom?)

What is the stock size of our scoupe swaybars?

All should be in by next weekend! Anyone want to give any tips on the easiest way to change these? I've never seen anyone change a swaybar before, but it doesn't seem to hard.
Also, this next week I'm buying rear wheel spacers ( 1" ).
Anyone know if I'll need a camber kit after all of this?

I'll post pics of the goods when I get them in! I'll also post pics as I change them. I'm going to lower the front first and see if it looks kool with a lower front end than back end...like a little drag car. hehe!

Later on,
Nick

Edit: Actually, I don't know what the springs are...they are purple...intrax? I think PI is red? The number on them is #36-007 which is PI's part number...

Is there any swap or conversion et rid of the GT-i and get the MVTi.

I am planning to buy a scoupe turbo, but am a bit confused about the types.

Im looking for scoupe turbo pistons im in africa so a few brands are unavalible to me. we Get AE and KS pistons but cant find a part number or Caterlogue.

What Do you Guys Recommend?

and what is the standerd Scoupe Turbo piston made from?

Here are the Pistons they were 20 pounds each with GRANT USA rings


cos these TOTO Piston have this info.


WIll these be the same Strenght/stronger than the Original Factory Piston's?

my scoupe GT takes about 8 litre-fuel per km. It is normal?

Just wondering what you guys thought about this...

I didn't take a lot of time to get details good, but this is a short bit I did with photoshop to my scoupe.

lowered, rims, tinting, color


And I realize the tinting is not right on any of the windows...

Would the color be a good idea? Also, I have always wanted these rims (Konig Thoery) on a little sports car. Let know know guys!

My Myspace
Pix of both my cars, me, girlfriend, etc. Did my own coding too!

Hi all,

right now I am have a bit of a problem to start the car and it does not always give the same problem.


Sometimes it seems as if it is going to start but then I hear a relay from under the dashboard flickering. I have to keep the throttle open (keep it revved over 2000 rpm) in order to compensate. I have to keep it revved up for a few seconds otherwise the relay flickers again and shuts the engine again.

Other times when the key is turned on the ignition position (the car is not started yet) the rev counter needle Hoovers around the 1000 rpm mark. What does this mean?

As time goes by the problem seems to worsened? Has anyone else had a similar problem? what did you do to get things back to normal?

Hi all,

I was wondering, are there any back seats that will swap with the scoupes? Also, would putting in some tiburon front seats be a good idea?
My passenger seat is messed up and won't sit up all the way making it very uncomfortable for others (namely my girlfriend). There are very few salvage yards anywhere near here that have scoupes, and I haven't found one yet with my same seats... I will keep looking though.

-Next-

On the instrument cluster there is a clear plastic cover that protects the gauges. I am wanting to paint the black plastic around the gauges. The problem is, I can't get the clear cover off. I tried and made a small crack, so I stopped then to keep from cracking the front of it. Help please if you know how to remove it!


If you can help, that would be kool, if not, that's kool too...

Thanks guys,
Nick




Oh, just thought I'd show you guys an update:

That blue is a flat-royal-blue, don't know why it shows up light blue on camera. Still more to be done.

What is a good radiator to swap in for our scoupes? Preferably one I will be able to continue using (due to size) after a beta swap. Is there one from another vehicle I could grab from a scrapyard that would fit nicely?

Also, are the half-sized radiators, like in some accents, actually good? <--- that's just a random question for an idea I had

Thanks,
Nick

I have recently purchased a 1993 scoupe turbo. It seems to perform quite well but... goes through gas like its a 60's muscle car. Don't even get 200 km's to 20 liters of fuel. I know from my previous 92 n/a scoupe that this is probably not normal. I obviously don't own my own Hi-scan and really don't want to pay the dealer to misdiagnose the issue. Attempted to ground the diag connector to flash the engine light to see if there were any codes, but I am not getting anything. Double checked that I am on the right pin, still nothing. I am under the assumption that the bulb for the engine light is burnt or has been removed for probably the reason I am after(maybe the guy got sick of looking at the light...) My question is : does the "check engine light" on these cars come on when you turn the key to the "on" position for a bulb check? If so it looks like I am in for pulling the cluster to see what is going on.

i want to do the front bakes myself so im just looking for some advice/help.
all i really need help with is how to get the front hubs off, what tools do i need etc. .if anyone can help it would be appreciated.

Ive actually had this for about a Year i bought it on ebay when i was in the UK.
But was cleaning up the Old garage so i thought i would share...

Scoupe Workshop manaul Volume 1 & 2(Dont know the Differnce alto one is thicker)

From the 1994 Hyundai Brochure

i have a 93 hyundai scoupe 1.5l turbo motor, im haveing some trouble location some 0.020 overbore pistons for it, i dont really care what brand or anything like that as long as the will fit and work like they should im only boosting between 6-10lbs so nothing crazy, and also maybe a crankshaft, i have 2 but im unsure of how good of shape they are still in the have been sitting for around 3 years now im just deciding to rebuild this motor for a daily driver :|

hi ...i have just bought a 1994 red scoupe its got a turbo fitted but i'm not sure if its a factory fit,how can i tell if its a GT, LS, or just what it is .... it has a G4EK engine turbo dash is there a way of telling if it has a turbo engine block or not without pulling the sump off to see if its got Piston Oil Cooling Jet ..thanks for any info RAY

Roughly, how much do you think an 04 Hyundai Coupe S 1.6, with 25,000 miles should cost?
Think im getting a good deal but want to double check
thanks

When someone asks you what car you drive what do you say?

Do you say:
1. " a Hyundai S Coupe "
2. " a Hyundai Scoupe " (scoop)
3. " a Hyundai Sport Coupe "

Just wondering what you guys say...

Edit: Just thought I'd inform you guys that I went to a Super Street car show this last week and posted some pics on my cardomain page here, so that I don't need to tell it in a new topic/post.

Will give you guys a report with pics and video's on monday!

Can you Spot the Scoupe?

help,where can i order this part for scoupe

- rear skirt

very love it.

Just bought myself a s-coupe MVTI turbo and here its quite a rare car here in england. Im trying to find out more about this model but can not as of yet track down any. can anyone help me please,

I'm having a lot of trouble with my 94 S Coupe. A lot of the time when I accelerate, the car goes "de-de-de-de-de-de" and i lose power. This happens under moderate acceleration, but not light or heavy.
The car is a 1.5 non turbo and has a manual 5-speed manual transmission.
I have replaced the sparks, leads, dizzy cap, rotor button, air filter, oil & filter, but to no avail.
Can someone please help me? I wish I could get rid of the damned thing, but it owes me too much.

I know the beta pushes out more HP than the scoupe turbo does, but which one is actually faster in acceleration? I'm sure the answer is probably the beta engine, but would the turbo not help enough with the acceleration to allow it to at least hang with a beta scoupe?

I was just curious on the topic of which one is better stock. Thought some open discussion would be good too.

-Nick

'Just bought the Scoupe yesterday and it has a lot of little odds and ends to fix. The power windows don't work, the driver's seat belt is jammed, etc. -- a bunch of annoying stuff. I've been trying to access the Hyundai website that is referenced a thousand times in the forum -- Registered and everything but when I go to Service Information and put my car details in, nothing comes up. My computer is slow so I don't know if it's me or what. Can anyone confirm?

I am having a lot of trouble with my 94 S Coupe.
Under moderate acceleration, the car kind of stutters and jumps, 80% of the time.
I have replaced the sparks, leads, dizzy cap, rotor button, oil & filter and air filter.
I have also replaced the coolant temperature switch.
Please help me, as I would like to get rid of the damned thing, but it owes me too much money

Look at this video and hear the sound!

The stuttering still happens from time to time. I have replaced the fuel filter and the ECT (coolant temp sensor). I no longer get any errors (no check engine light).

Yesterday, when driving around, I pushed my brakes and my car freaked out! My RPM's dropped, almost stalling my car, and most of my gauge lights came on. I talked to a couple guys at the local AutoZone, they said that it is probably the alternator. They used their machine to test it. It is charging low they said and the battery quickly lost power once engine was shut off. What is the normal charging standard. Mine was 12.3, they said anything lower than 13.5 wasn't good.

Anyone care to share?

I have a 93' S-Coupe Turbo. 2 days ago i pulled into a carpark with the engine missing and jumping at i feathered the throttle.
The next day i removed my plugs to find all 4 had the ceramics broken (they were very hard to remove) so i just thought EASY!!! they are arcing. I replaced these with new plugs and started the car, only to find the problem more apparent. i removed the plugs again for a 2nd fitting to find the 3rd plug clean (with fuel smell) Vs the other 3 plugs sooted up from ignition.

The HT leads are fine as all have been checked with friends leads. i imaging the problem coming from either the dizzy cap that tooks OK or the Rotor arm also looking fine, i plan to fit new cap and arm soon, any other suggestions.

Many thanks

My much-loved Scoupe Turbo is advertised in the Classified Section (or click here) :-

Cheers,
Nick.

I need help with replacing it. I don't know where it is, and I'm hoping someone will help me quickly. I thought it would be on the radiator somewhere, but I'm not having much luck finding it.

Is this it by any chance? The connector on it looked the same as the temp sensor I got at advanced auto. ($12)


I'm sure this guess is probably wrong, so please describe to me where it is if you can.

Thanks!
