Kia Spectra5 SX - My Daily

In No Particular Order.

















Unfortunately with Kia's warranty, I cannot do a thing to this car without risking my coverage so, what you see is what you get.

Thanks.

not a bad looking car. some interior/engine shots would be nice. looks a lot like the mazda protege5 wagon.
don't know your plans with the car, but if you're worried about the warranty, i bet you could do some suspension/wheel work without compromising that.

Well I have a SRI on it, and when I took it in for some service, the service department threw a huge fit over it, telling me that any damage that happens that can be attributed to the intake will not be covered under warranty.

I know I can do some suspension work on it, seeing as how they offer Eibach lowering springs as an aftermarket dealer option.

As of right now, I just want to keep it clean, put a nice system in it, and do a few things to make it more visually appealing. After I finish the build I am working on with the Cav, I will most likely boost the Spectra or trade it in for a Cobalt SS/TC.

As for the other pictures I will see what I can come up with.

Thanks.

I'll take some interior shots later. I need to clean the car up a little bit.

These are really starting to grow on me. If they threw a fit about an intake I would laugh in their face.

Yeah it was pretty stupid. When I lived in Florida, I had a lot more done to the car, P&P Intake Manifold, TriFlow 70mm throttlebody, 600 injectors, header back 2.5" exhaust with 2 cat delete, and a mail order tune from this company in Cali. The service department down there never gave me any problems working on my car. The intake manifold cracked, so I had to put the stock one back on, and the company sent me another one, but I think I'm either just going to hold onto it until warranty is up, or just sell it. I got rid of the exhaust because I kept throwing CEL's and it sounded like @!#$ anyway. Once I got back to Omaha and got to drive my Cavalier again...I lost interest in doing anything to the Kia other than driving it. So I took the rest of the stuff off and flashed my ECU to the stock tune. Ugh, everytime I drive the Kia now I am reminded of how slow it is, and how fast it used to be.

There is actually a lot of aftermarket out there for the Kia's, really surprised me.
