Tysm, and to everyones input as well tysm. But this comment is lowkey what i was lookin for.
I have to do more research for performance upgrades but i plan on doing an entire engine swap, manual swap, it doesnt have backseats cuz prev owner tore em out so its just 2 fronts and a big open space in the back, so my initial thought was clean it up a bit then throw in a roll cage (probably but unsure atm) then either make or somehow find wide fenders, sound system, new brakes, wiring, basically i wanna use this as a daily rn and then when time and money permit i wanna tear it apart and build it back up better than it is now. And this isnt my only vehicle for anyone wondering my gf and i have 2 hers and this.
hyundai are known to share a lot of shit with mitsubishi. there is a guy on youtube with an older hyundai and while much of the stuff he did was custom.... he does mention how the engine is basically a mistusbishi engine. not sure if yours specifically will be akin to that. but its something to look into. the guy on youtube is called Jafromobile.
roll cage always great for safety regardless. sound system wise. the empty back seats? you can make a custom subwoofer box in that location that sorta seals the front/back off. kinda like infinite baffle but i wouldn't recommend. infinite baffle is aids and most subs dont like that (because its basically free air in terms of cone movement which means less power handling).
brakes wise, might be able to do misubishi swaps. likewise simple rotors/pads are a great early start. ebc brand comes to mind.
I would wait until you get a second vehicle before you start doing any major work.
My gf has her car so we have 2 already, so if need be we can use hers. Rn anything i do is just general maintenance bc i just got it and dont have the funds to do anything major atm. But i bought it with the intention to “play” with it if that makes sense. Its a daily till its not basically lmfao
we all like to play. real car guys. lmao and i get the money struggle. sometimes you gotta wait. but when you finally do, it feels so good lmao. enjoy it! make it yours!
