1998 HYUNDAI TIBURON FX. 5 SPEED 2.0 DOHC
Up for sale is my custom 98 tiburon.
CLEAR TITLE IN HAND. - not an R title.
car was in an accident and repaired several years before i got it. 101000 miles on the clock.
car is plastidipped and was featured as a spotlight car on dipitcrew @ www.dipitcrew.com/crew-spotlight.html
see the featured youtube video here - http://youtu.be/Od4yVCBTcxk
car shows signs of it's age. it's not perfect by any means, it hesitates when cold, but it runs and drives great after it warms to normal temperature.
several new oem and performance parts. too many to list. but i'll try new low profile tires have about 2000 miles on them with a fresh alignment and new tie rod ends. car drives straight as an arrow, and handles great.
car has had bodywork done, including an korean fiberglass hood that i had imported. the car has been plastidipped wich is like a spray wrap. (google plastidip or goto dipyourcar.com)
it has new o2 sensors, maf sensor, air intake sensor,crank and cam sensors, new catalytic converter, new tires, new air filter, alzetta tail lights, custom painted headlights and clear corners and 2.5" full stainless exhaust included.
it's been well taken care of, and should provide several thousand more miles of enjoyment.
I also have a coil over conversion kit that has not been installed yet that i would include for an additional $50 if you want to lower this car.
the car is a 5 speed manual trans and has a new clutch and flywheel with about 8000 miles on them. shifts fine, no problems with trans.
the engine has an intermittent lifter tick that only happens once in a while. It was checked out by the dealer, and I was told by the hyundai technician and cooberated with several online forums that this is normal for the 2.0 DOHC engine of this age. it goes away with fresh oil changes.
I have a complete 2.5 stainless exhaust with header that will be included with the car. it's removed due to emission requirements. new catalytic converter/header was just installed 6 months ago. the muffler/tailpipe end is still on the car for a great performance, looks, and sound. Car has a cd player that plays mp3 cds. I also have the oem tail lights if the alzetta tail lights aren't what you like. i would install the oem for you.
interior is in good shape. it has normal wear and tear for being a 98. air conditioning does not work, i never had it checked for repair, i'm not sure what is wrong with it. please message me for additional pics or to ask any questions.
car does run and drive great. I drive it daily.
however the car is being sold as-is with no warranty implied.
thanks for looking.
the car is also being sold locally and online, so get it while you can!

Hyundai, Kia and U of M studying 'highway hypnosis'
Wed, 28 Aug 2013Next up on the hot-button list of things that can kill you behind the wheel: "highway hypnosis." That's the zombie-like, autopilot phase you get into on a long highway drive when there isn't much to distract you, like curves or traffic. Digging further into what it is and how to combat it, Hyundai-Kia engineers and the University of Michigan are commencing a study that will measure brainwave activity in order to track the body's slide into highway hypnosis.
We're not sure how much overlap this has with Mercedes-Benz's Attention Assist, which tracks more than 70 in-car parameters to determine when you're not focused on the road anymore. That system is billed as an alarm against fatigue, in our experience it does more than that - if you use your phone while driving, for instance, it will chirp.
They don't know what form a warning system will take yet, but Hyundai-Kia plans to develop a method for warning drivers when they being to zone out. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, there were more than three thousand deaths and nearly 400,000 injuries due to distracted driving in 2011.
Did a US automaker blow the whistle on Hyundai, Kia fuel economy issue?
Mon, 17 Dec 2012In all of the most hotly contested mainstream segments of the motoring universe, the difference of one mile per gallon averaged on a widow sticker can mean the difference between a sale and a walk-off - to say nothing of two or three mpg. So, when Hyundai and Kia were forced to reveal that many of their 40-mpg ratings were actually 38s and 37s, well, it made for big news.
It also, conceivably, made for a competitive disadvantage immediately, when the Korean automakers' products were being shopped versus the guys down the block. And it's that disadvantage that makes a recent story from Automotive News so juicy.
AN is reporting that Margo Oge, former head of the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Transportation and Air Quality, got a tip in 2010 that Hyundai/Kia were "cheating" to get its impressive fuel economy numbers. The tip, said Oge (who retired from the EPA this past September), came from a senior vice president from a domestic automaker. The source was credible enough for Oge to launch an audit of the Hyundai figures, which ultimately lead to the debacle that we reported on a few months ago, and that the Korean company has been trying to bounce back from ever since.
Hyundai’s N division will tune electrics, steer clear of Genesis
Tue, Apr 2 2019At Hyundai's Namyang proving ground in a small garage emblazoned with a giant "N," Albert Biermann, the ex-BMW engineer who now heads up vehicle development for the Korean brand, recently provided a few hints about what to expect from Hyundai's nascent performance sub-brand — and that includes EVs. "We are looking for the right ideas of how to transfer the craziness of N into electrification," he said. That could be "a full EV [and] also could be a hybrid." To date, we've seen the Veloster N introduced last fall in the United States, followed by the recently announced Elantra GT N Line. Europe has the i30 N in hatchback and fastback body styles. Biermann says, "We will expand also into segments we are not in now," including "something a little bit smaller," as well as into "a different type of vehicle." Biermann also said we can expect a more powerful version of the new 2020 Hyundai Sonata — which we've just reviewed, and which will launch in the United States with a 180-hp 1.6-liter turbo and a 191-hp 2.5-liter naturally aspirated four. But he stopped short of saying whether it would be an N or an N Line model. And it appears that the N expansion will not extend to Genesis. "There are no plans yet to make a sub-label for Genesis like we did with N for Hyundai," Biermann said. This despite the fact that nearly all of its rivals have branched out in that direction. For now, it seems, the G70 Sport is as sporty as it will get over at Genesis.
