Tiburon, only if you have a heck of a lot of money to burn, though the 2.0 Beta Hyundai is a hell of an engine. The mounts, accessories, everything is different, including the shift mechanism.
Leganza... the 2.2 would be an incredibly tight fit. People who have swapped 2.0 Nubira engines into Lanos' have said that engine is a tight fit, and the 2.2 is a few inches wider than that (different engine family).
But, there's the answer right there.... 2.0 Nubira engine swap. 130HP, same as the stock Beta Hyundai engine, and you know it fits because it's the same engine family as the 2.0.
Do a search in the archives both here and at HA and you'll find a few people doing the 1.6-2.0 swap.
