Something different

[DjGreggieP]

Not having ABS is so much fun. Makes FWD cars fun in the rain when you want to get sideways.

So legit working for kia, my mom has a 2011 tucson with the same engine and tranny as the automatic Forte Koup SX. Kind of fun seeing the little riced out civics getting smoked by a CUV.

Oh yeah, do you know if the traction control on the theta2 equipped cars makes a loud clunking noise and jerks the car when its active?

Girlfriends car is the EX auto with the 2.0l. It's silver with some pink mischief.tv stickers and hearts and what not. I have her sold on getting a set of Sparco Assetto's in Fuchsia lol


Shouldn't be making noises. And by default (at least in Canada anyways) traction control is always 'on' So I would guess that something is wrong in the diff, or tranny. I sell them, and I know cars relatively well, but still not a certified tech lol, its it's on your mom's car she should definitely get that checked out

Or you could just daily drive this and slam that e28 that seems to be sitting in your yard unloved...

agreed

Everything but a Stratus lol. The Stratus is a Cirrus, Breeze, Stratus lol I do have the 300M guages in my car right now, but I need to pull them to remove the ABS and Park brake light, my intrepid doesn't have ABS so it defaults the light on, and I can see it through the electric tape! And I need to paint over the part number so it isn't visible. I don't really have updates, just waiting on parts to arrive really.

And I am definitely KDM, I work for a KIA Dealership selling cars! So if anyone is needing KDM part numbers I can most definitely get them info. And I have looked at a few places that carry performance parts for KIA's and owning an Intrepid which has minimal aftermarket support, I am willing to dig a little more for parts.

Get some pics up man!

You are part of the KDM scene because your girlfriend has one of them sexy koups.


I was actually doing some research on these cars and isn't this car an intrepid, 300m, LHS, Concorde, and a stratus?

Glad to see something different..

Thanks! Props to you on the Forte sedan! My girlfriend has Forte Koup, and I am trying to sway her into doing something with her car lol

Struts have arrived. Springs get ordered next Tuesday when I have a chance to drive 2 hours to where I can order them from.

Question, where does everyone get their spacers from?? I don't need huge spacers, and I have checked online for them and found a bunch, I was wondering if anyone on here have good experience with the a specific brand or if there is a company to avoid.

Thanks in advance!!

[DjGreggieP]

Looks like I may have my springs thru a shop in Regina. Hoping I get a call back tomorrow and can have them coming to me soon!!

[DjGreggieP]

Got my struts ordered today, still trying to locate a place of business in Saskatchewan that offers H&R springs. Called to places today and they no longer deal with that parts company and they haven't had a chance to update their website in the past two years to note it...

[DjGreggieP]

Thanks! I actually have a 300M parts car, but it was a salvaged unit so I stole a few pieces from it for my build.

I had a good month in car sales, so it looks like I will be getting my springs ordered around the 15th of Oct. not sure 100% when they will be going in tho.. Will posts pics as I go and acquire parts

[Randomofodication]

deffinently different, haha was not expecting to see one of these on here! I think you should get the 300 m bumpers/lights and stuff.

seen this one a long time ago.

good luck with the build!

I may have to figure things out for it. The camaro's body is solid. little things are the hold up for that project

[rice4life]

Forget the bimmer, there are too many of them, I want that Iroc :O

an Iroc dropped on some starion wheels would look sick man.

[DjGreggieP]

Nice nice.

Thinking this weekend once the shop is organized the e28 may have to take up residence in there... So many on here make me want to get this thing at least running...
