The rear swaybar was supposedly not available till the end of June, but mine was delivered Sunday, unexpectedly!Nevermind, just saw your going to add them. I'll let you know how it is.
Excellent! Mine will be on in the next couple of hours. Thanks!I've had those on for nearly 3 years without issue and still looking as good as new.
Taking the car in Friday for both the coils and sway bars. Kia is installing. Will be interesting. Had to wait for my summer rims to be powder coated and mounted (getting them tomorrow) as the car will probably need an alignment after the coils and want the new wheels on.You already have the sways on...how is it?
Just got done putting Eibach rear sway bar, and ATQ Subframe kit...WOW! what a difference just those make, front sway should be here in 2 days. The car drives like it should have from Manufacturer, very planted and stable now, and I haven't even put the front on yet...But I gotta say that rear one was a B- word to put in, just the drivers side as there is no room to get in there adequately, also had to change zerk fittings to ones that are angled towards the inside of the wheels instead of straight up as it would be impossible to grease, again no room to get in there. But all things considered I'm STOKED!Overlays but I also have dealer fitted sways and once again no issues.
ATTA BOY!Taking the car in Friday for both the coils and sway bars. Kia is installing. Will be interesting. Had to wait for my summer rims to be powder coated and mounted (getting them tomorrow) as the car will probably need an alignment after the coils and want the new wheels on.
On the bright side, I smoked an Audi S5 sportback from a red light today after he cut me off at a prior light![]()
Have you thought about getting the Sprint Booster V3? I got one and installed in literally 5 minutes and it's awesome! It eliminates the throttle body electronic delay and it will really pin you back into the seat depending on your preferred setting as there are several. It does not give more horsepower but gives you what the car is capable of instantly! Well worth the cost.ATTA BOY!
Interesting choice about zerk fittings and I can see it would be easier for diy. I have dealer grease mine at scheduled services.Just got done putting Eibach rear sway bar, and ATQ Subframe kit...WOW! what a difference just those make, front sway should be here in 2 days.

I prefer to do my own, as the less others have to touch it and drive it the less chance of them doing some kind of damage, which has happened to me in the past.. take it in for one thing and they mess up or damage something else! Unless it's Warranty Work I'll do it myself. I even detail it myself simply because they...being car washing places don't do it completely right and I'll have to spend time redoing it...I'm very picky, I don't even dry it with towels I use an electric blower so there are no swirls or Spyder webs...the Ceramic product I use let's the water practically fall off.Interesting choice about zerk fittings and I can see it would be easier for diy.

Do you have license plate delete?Interesting choice about zerk fittings and I can see it would be easier for diy. I have dealer grease mine at scheduled services.
Illegal in Aus as must have front and rear plates.Do you have license plate delete?
Illegal here in California also but it's just a fix it ticket, and most Law Enforcement don't bother with that too much unless you get pulled over for being unruly or just being stupid on the road. Which I have been guilty of as far as driving a bit too fast here and there, but no tickets thus far. Knock on wood!Illegal in Aus as must have front and rear plates.
Here it's a guarantee to be pulled over and a $464 fine plus loss of 3 points. The same fine applies for obscured plates. Just about all police vehicles have plate identification capabilities to check for unregistered vehicles or disqualified owner/driver. Ines from fixed and mobile speed cameras via plate recognition also forms a large component of State revenue.Illegal here in California also but it's just a fix it ticket, and most Law Enforcement don't bother with that too much unless you get pulled over for being unruly or just being stupid on the road.

So much for FREEDOM! There is no such thing as privacy anymore, Im sure the powers that be, here in the States will do just the same thing as soon as they can agree that it's worth it to spend the money to rake in the money. Some States already have that technology, but here in Cali it's still kind of a free for all, Im sure it won't last though.Here it's a guarantee to be pulled over and a $464 fine plus loss of 3 points.
