What did you do to your Kia Stinger today?

[jsrob905]

I am about to order carpro cquartz3.0. Any regrets out there from previous users?

 

[robz32]

None what so ever. Among one of the best coatings in the market. Make sure you buy the topper as well to maintain it.

I think that's part of it, but I think the direct injection plays a part too. The turbo Liberty I owned had 12,500km service intervals, and I've known of European turbo engines cars with 15,000km service intervals.

I drive a lot for work (the Stinger was acquired so I could do this), the servicing is going to be interesting...

Yes my previous Toyota 86 had 9 month service intervals (15000km). Normally aspirated but with direct injection.

Installed a Maxton Design V1 lip in gloss black. I really like the look, but I'm not sure how well it will hold up to impacts on steep driveways since it's abs plastic. My car wont see much winter use this year so I should be good, but if my car was lowered it might be another story...

it's not the curbs I'd be worried about, but rather all the rock chips that will accumulate. My splitter was painted and I easily counted 4 or 5 chips. The ABS is matte black underneath so not easy to see from afar, but I know it's still there.....

I said goodbye to my stinger as I must go to work for four days . But I ordered it a ceramic coating.

Today I completed the install of my new jb4 wireless mod along with fuel wires. I also installed new Denso sparks set to .026 removing the stock sparks which I found to be set to .035 gap. Took car out for ride on map2 setting, using the paddle shifters. Was raining out, but still, with new sparks and a complete jb4 install, the ride was absolutely exhilarating.

Denso at 26??? Why

 

[NS_Stinger]

Burger Motorsports suggests a minimum of .026" for the OEM plugs but for the Densos they recommend .022". Maybe he got the specs for the stock plugs mixed up with the Denso's?

Hope so... otherwise it’s a redo! Sigh...

Thats the way I roll. always a redo. Have to say was misfiring big time with oem gaps so far running smoothlyat .026

Purchased a RC GTS black. Still in the box. I over estimated my mod schedule. At 50 grand miles, will definitely go with the JB and sell my RC. ...after I check it out. Before any tuning, got to get new shoes.

I applied ceramic coating for the first time.

Ordinarily not a big blue car guy. But that's real, real pretty.

Every time I see a DCB, I ask myself why in the hell did KIA chose not to bring it to the US

Car looks great BTW @xot1

 

[xot1]

Thank you!
I like the color too, only problem is that it looks good only when clean.

Installed some SS304 wire mesh (painted gloss black) in the vents behind the front wheels to stop rocks/debris from coming through the vents and down the side of the car. Haven't had any issues yet but better to be safe. Cheap and easy project

Nice work. I have been making and supplying Australian members a free set of these who buy a hat off me for a few years now.

Not a blue we see over here. Unfortunately.
