Ottawa area stingers

[BEE#1]

Does anybody in Ottawa have exhaust done on their stinger? I know there are only about 6-8 here but hoping to find someone who has already done it.

Yes! Borla cat back S type.

Please! I must, let me know when you have installed, hard to tell how anything sounds from videos. I'm torn between borla, ark, and stillen (though stillen sounds stock, but can't argue with Dyno results).

I have the Borla cat back. Very aggressive sound.

I bring my own oil for the change they supply the filter
I use Mobile 1 or Penzol ultra synthetic when it goes on sale at Canadian Tire.

Check out the ottawa valley stingers Facebook group tends to be more active there, should hear the borla with ark mid pipes lol

Hi Brent, another Ottawan here. I've seen a few Stingers around the city but the forum seems to be a little dry of Ottawa members. Am at the heart of the city. Hopefully we can get a few more local members here.

Ottawa as well. Carling and Kirkwood area.

Got a bunch of parts to sell in case someone in here isn’t in the FB group… wiling to ship at your expense.

anyone needed to change brake pads on GT limited (3.3), if so what has dealer quoted and do you know of a reliable place apart from dealer who can do this?

 

[PRINCE]

KIA 417 are good. Not sure what they will charge to change just the pads, but pads and rotors $440. To be honest, it's actually pretty easy to do it yourself.

Personally, I would not put stock pads back on. I. have a 2022 GT Elite and the first thing I did was change out the rotors and pads within the first 500 km’s or so. I got a package deal from Rock Auto for Powerstop cross drilled/slotted rotors and Z26 pads. The pads can be bought separately, but the package deal was too good to pass up.I have been very satisfied with them so far, but I have only put about 2,000 km’s on them.

For KIA dealers, I’ve been using the KIA dealer on Mer Bleu in Orleans. They have been okay so far. This is the dealer I bought my car from.

Kia 417 as did all the other dealers quoted $1000 for front pads, $435 for rear pads, rotors another 250 each. They only use Brembo OEM. Crazy.

The 4 Powerstop rotors and front and back pads from Rock Auto cost me $900 and about $200 for shipping.

You changed them yourself?

No. I had my shop do it.
