Hey there, I'm a seasoned DSMer that is in the process of making the ultimate sleeper car. I'm thinking about dropping my race motor into a 1st gen elantra but i need a few answers on some things. From what I hear, 1st gen elantra are easy canidates to do a 4g63t swap. Is there any specific year, engine size that would be more compatible than the other? My guess is that the 1.8L (4g93?) would be easier to swap out as opposed to the 1.5L (4g15?) Also, would stock 1.5 or 1.8 elantra axels work or even have to be used with the 5 speed fwd dsm turbo tranny. I'm more of a mitsu guy so please help me on the slight differences if any, that come on hyundais.

I'm currently underway with this swap as well. Any info would be much appreciated, as I haven't fitted any driveline components as yet.
