HCOC The Hyundai Coupe Owners Club ®And Forums

Hi all,
First time on this forum as I have just bought myself a 2.0 SE Gen 3.5 in red. She's ace but a little loud as she's got a big bore twin stainless steel exhaust and an upgraded air intake.
What are members thoughts, keep it like it is or take it back to stock?
Also can anyone give me a ballpark figure for the price of a new clutch and the fitting...

Look forward to your response..

exhaust is entirely up to you, if it's not too loud for you then keep it, if it is a bit loud then go for something inbetween.

As to clutch... £250-£450 depending where you live and who does it

It sounds great! Lucky you and wecome to the forum.

Hello and to the forum

saves having to spend £500-£700 upgrading the exhaust!

hi mate and to hcoc. a red coupe the best colour.

Welcome to the club

Welcome

Welcome, buddy - and welcome to the world of owning a Coupe! I've got my 2.0 Gen 3.5 straight-piped and I love it, as I feel the stock exhaust doesn't give the car justice... however, loud exhausts aren't for everybody! As for the clutch, mine's automatic (sigh - I know that was a bad move) - so I wouldn't know, sorry!

You would like to hope, Kate was quoted £500 plus by four different garages so shop around to get the price down.

London area expect it to be at the upper end of that bracket

Thanks everyone for the welcome...I'm hoping my mechanic can doo me a good deal on the clutch and I'm gonna reserve judgement on the exhaust until the spring when I use it more....

Welcome, the exhaust note is a very personal thing. If it's too loud for you keep it as I'm guessing it's stainless steel and add an extra silencer.

Managed to get my mechanic to do the clutch for 250...bonus!!!

Wow that's mega cheap, was that just the clutch or did it include the slave cylinder too?
