Dunno if this has anything to do with what you're asking, but it was commented on in another thread that "Tiburon" is Spanish for "Shark". So there's no shortage of jokes that can be made about taking one off Rally-X jumps.

KYB GR-2's. You'll likely want stock height or higher? If so, you may be able to slide in some 01-02 Elantra Hatchback springs on those struts for a little lift and full suspension travel.
Step up the rear sway bar with a 2003 GK (tib) bar and metal links.I think that would pretty much cover it.

Why? Those are just stock replacement struts. Nothing wrong with them, but they'll offer nothing special performance-wise or durability-wise. My vote for shocks that can handle some offroad abuse but won't break the bank goes to Bilstein HD's (if available for the Hyundai, didn't check that).
I would suggest they look for a hotbits setup... but it might be a bit more cash then you want to spend?
Stock would be fine for smooth dirt roads.
Bilstein HDs are nice if you must spend some money on the suspension. (If you're serious, ring up JVAB - make sure your cellphone is fully charged - as his stuff is high quality without the high price. Only about $2k for a set of four struts and springs IIRC)
I've heard that the KYB AGX struts do well in a light rally type environment
Koni Yellows are available and are what I wholeheartedly suggest for a tiburon if you do not plan on going custom. Springs, I'd get a set of Ground Control sleeves (pretty sure they have these for the tiburon) with one of the hundreds of OTS Eibach 2.5" race springs, only setting the sleeves so you have stock or higher than stock ride height. Can't remember if you go stiffer or softer with off-road driving.
Second set of stock wheels with good M+S rated tires, cheap winter tires work well for off-road/rally use for example.
I know one thing on a sonata the hand brake operated the front wheels 
dunno if that applies to all of their line.
None that I have ever seen. The only front-handbrake cars I've ever seen were older Subarus, and older SAABs.
At least, I'm fairly sure I've worked on one of everything Hyundai ever made, and before they ventured out onto their own designs, they were rehashed Mitsu and they were all conventional brake.
Not that you should need a handbrake for playing on dirt roads, anyway. Tight rallycross, maybe, but with street tires, you should have no problem getting any car to rotate in its own length...
