i owned a kia spectra 1.6...


1)Didnt remember where n when...
2) forgot
2) silver
3) bumps color probs...(it like cracked n the color wear off)/slow pickups
4) sorry didnt know how to upload pic
5) i think its the fc... but it didnt really feel like open an upside down bottle if u use it for long distance with no bumps n light...

just wondering... how much does it cost for exterior design such as bumps, skirts, spoils, n something like that(body kits if possible)... oh n the ussual workshop to add all these

what is the size of the rims? i feel like changing it... lol...

My KIA Spectra still running normally

Just done with the top overhauled, cost me RM4K but i'm satisfied, no more 'makan minyak hitam' thingy
run smoothly but still need to change the drive shaft on the left side plus absorbers.

Cost me 3k++ to change from auto to manual, driving it for two week aredi,
Power and engine pickup so much different compare to auto, Manual spectra = fun.

Wow..can't believe KIA Spectra is still active.

I'm an owner and still driving a KIA Spectra 1.6AT 2002 model. Recently changed the radiator top, 4 x ori suspension and the so called (dunno what you call it) rod holding the suspension. I can tell you, the car's suspension felt like a new car, only that the sound dampening is no match with current car's dampening, that you will sometimes hear loud noises when going through large potholes or 'very' not even surfaces.

FC is still well at 300km for each RM50 - 55 (RM1.90/L RON95). Went to Fraser's hill last weekend and the car took it well on the cornerings.

Best of all, parts are still available (new not recon) and cheaper. Worse come to worst, if you feel your car needs overhauling, it'll only cost ya RM2000+ (I haven't do it) and it'll run like new.

My mileage is 228k.

Hi,
Searched The Fast & Furious Forum BUT no thread for KIA Spectra Owner
so, i'm thinking of starting it for sharing info and all kind of knowledge we've learnt
may be we can share lot of things like good/bad workshop, cheaper but good quality accesories etc etc
may be for a start we can introduce our car data like;

1) When & Where you bought it
2) Price (since Spectra went thru some price changed)
2) Colour of Your Spectra
3) Any Major Problem So Far
4) Picture of Your Spectra
5) Spectra Minor Problem
6) Ask Me to add more...

I will add more later...
*
1)30 August 2006
2)78k
3)Quartz blue(Spectra Novus)
4)Never had major problem 158k. Well maintained. Every5k oil change, 15k Change transmission oil. 40k Do flushing. Others all biasa biasa lar. As usual
6)Minor problem, hmmmmmmmmm. So far nothing for me.
7)For ne fuel consumption is good. My car i am using K & N Ori USA drop in air filter. And IK20 Iridium Spark Plugs. Michelin tires. Liqui Moly 10w-40 MoS2 Lubricants. So happy with the car. Its all depends how you maintain the car. Its a nice car for me.
