  • Complete review of my Hyundai Tiburon GT and what I love and hate about the car! There’s a few things I left out such as the fact that the car has a lack of power vs competitors in general but everyone already knows that anyways 🤷🏼‍♀️
    Not the best car POV set up to start but once I get better gear I can make some better videos of how fun the car actually is.

    I’ve had two Tiburons and I love them with a few exceptions of a few minor issues. Also If you want more power I have the v6 5 speed manual. And it’s supercharged with a spec stage three racing clutch, performance supercharger inter cooler, cold air intake, and dual borla exhaust. They make great race cars with some mods. I love how you can tell it’s an older car by looking at it but it’s still sleek and attractive. I love the all black👍👍👍

But at least while on the road where it counts I think it makes tight turns beautifully

    Finally normal review on tiburon!!! I was very worried about dash plastic. And that was the one reason why i thinking to buy Prelude, not Tiburon. Buuuuut I'm re-thinking now. Only Tiby)) It's cheaper, more relaible (Am I wrote correct? Sorry, English the second language), more space in the trunk, more modern and sells better in past (that's means it easier to find parts). Now i really want this car. In our country there's 4 popular coupes for 10 000 dollars. It's Celica mk3, Mitsubishi Eclipse mk3, Hyundai tiburon, Honda Prelude. I mean asian coupes. Silvia - 25000 dollars, Supra - more 45 000 dollars, Skyline GTS coupe r32

    34 - 35000\45000 dollars and etd.

    The cars styling was done by Pininfarina which is why many say it looks like a mini ferrari. The roof header lining is easy to take off if you want to fix the sunroof rattles, it's only held up with stiff hook and loop plastic fasteners like a more solid velcro so no clips to break and once you get the pillar trims off just pulls down. you can then get busy with the felt tape isolating all the rattles. What's that circular thing on the RH of your steering wheel and is it factory? never seen one of those before.

      Thanks for the tips that’s good to know, I’ve been wanting to replace my headliner and better secure my sunroof drain hoses but it seemed like it would be such a pain to do. When it comes to the rattles tho it seems like it comes from the actual frame and mechanism of the power sunroof itself then something under the headliner but I could be wrong 🤷🏼‍♀️ can’t go wrong with taking it off to check tho

      I’m not sure about the older models but the 07-08 come with Kenwood and they’re fine for what they are, they don’t sound bad or old. The sound with the oem radio isn’t the nicest but if you upgrade to one with more customizable options of the sound levels, fade, bass, tremble and all that then it greatly improves it imo

I think the v6 is much more fun than the 2.0 but it’s also a more complicated and costly engine & more expensive on gas on top of that tax so it comes to preference and compromise really.

      This is an FL2 from 07-08 facelift, GK was only 03-06 with the 05 & 06 also being branded as FL because that’s also a facelift but the parts and interchangeable from 03-06. 07 and 08 facelift have a lot of different shaped parts mostly the headlights and tail lights will not fit any other model. Although with modifications the 08 tail lights can be swapped into a GK, but headlights cant and you’d need to do a whole front end conversion

      Appreciate it! I had a new sunroof just put on and even that one rattles so I think it’s either something else or just me idk 😂😭 I might try to go in there myself but I can’t imagine that being the problem if it’s been redone and somehow still redone loose

    • @jottyh1676
      @jottyh1676 Год назад

      My second thought would be the metal clips that pull the sunshade back when the sunroof slides back. Could be many things though.
      Btw, there's a company in the UK called fused fabrications who just 3d printed a batch of bumper inserts that make the stock bumper hana like. I think they only do limited runs at the moment but are possibly worth considering to make the bumper look better if you can't find a hana kit.

      @@jottyh1676 yah I jumped in and got one of the second last sets of the batch. I’ve seen the fitment work on others but mine had a bit of issues which might be because we found out I have an aftermarket front bumper so they sit not totally flush but I can sort of fix that with a wrap overlay for now. When you get them definitely don’t slack on sanding them very well. At some point I’ll have to repaint and fix mine a bit but overall they’re great. Mistakes are just my own lol

    I couldn't really hear the insides of your door rattling when you closed it with the windows down, but maybe you should pull the door card off and take a peek to make sure that no cables, cable ties or window regulator components are flopping in the breeze? That said, the doors on the Tiburon are really good, especially compared to a similarly priced 4 door sedan or even the ND Miata which felt rattly and plasticky when I was at a dealership considering buying one.
    And yeah, those door handles suck - when I got my '04 GT beater (it's a restoration project), the driver's side door handle was broken clean in two and had been "repaired" with a small strip of metal and some self-tapping screws to hold the pieces together. I tore up my fingers on the ends of those screws first time I tried to get out of the car, which made me immediately buy new handles.
    Those handles would be great candidates for turning into CAD drawings so that I could order some made out of billet aluminum..

    • @theliltibby

      Oh man with the handles I think about this and search online thinking maybe someone started making them in metal all the time 😂 definitely would be a great idea, even just a stronger plastic.

      @theliltibby  Год назад +1

      Yah I’ll try to make a video on that sometime soon as well. Definitely get a pre purchase inspection. Check under the car for any rust. Make sure all electrical systems and features work well (lights,heating,ac, windows, sunroof) make sure they have a record of the timing belt being replaced, and if they don’t-get it replaced. Look for any wiring hanging around that would hint to DIY jobs they did themselves if so don’t buy it unless they have proof it was professionally done. Tiburons have sensitive electrical systems so if they did a shotty job it could be causing a lot of problems

      This is the GT with a 2.7L V6 (172hp, 181 torque) the 4cyl is 138hp. Depends on your budget and goals. If you want cheap on gas then get the 4cyl. But the V6 is more fun, better materials & better sound. If you plan to make power the 4cyl is easier to work on yourself and can handle more power if you go with a fully built turbo setup. 4cyl benefits for from a turbo. 6 benefits from a supercharger but both will cost you at least 3k in parts alone if you can find them or find someone who can build a custom turbo. If all that sounds like too much trouble-just get a V6 😅

    • @theliltibby
      @theliltibby  Год назад +1

      2.5k is pretty decent. But after 200k kms a lot starts to fail from wear so there’s a solid chance you’ll be spending more than 2.5k over 4 years or so to keep it running. 03s I’m sure a lot of parts are on their way out from age alone, like rubber and gaskets, sensors. At 200k kms you’ll need a timing belt& water pump so that’s about 900$ right there. I’d make him take it down to 2k just for that alone lol and if you’re serious get a pre purchase inspection
