Its a 2005 Kia Spectra Sx that I bought new a few years ago. It really has been a great little car. Here is the list of mods:

OBX 4-2-1 SS headder

Full SS exhaust custom made at Goofy's Muffler shop.(2.25 in pipe used, high flow cat converter)

Manaflow muffler

Ark Racing front strut brace

K&N Cool air intake

B&M Short Throw Shifter

Bosch plugs and wires

Eibach Springs(1.3 in drop)

Toyo proxy 4's (17 in)

Amp FF Club wheels

 

Things left to do:

Order rear sway bar and steel end links(18mm Tibby GT bar)

MSD Dash hawk system

Upgrade brakes(Cross drilled disks,brembo calipers,steel brake lines)

Strut upgrade

 

Things I may do:

Carbon fiber hood

better driver side seat and belt(5 point maybe)

4 point roll bar to help stiffen the car up a bit

New chip

Preformace cluch

 

My end goal is to auto x the car and I think with some of the parts and what not I should hold my own. This is my daily driver so thats about all I am going to do to it. Anything more major and I will get a car and build it for track use.

 

New pics will be up as I dont have pics of the Strut bar,Springs on the car and I dont have a good exhaust shot.

Feel free to ask if you have any questions and for the numbers on my car the HP is a guess maybe more maybe less as I dont have it dyno'd(I think it had 200 stock but dont remember and I know the trans in these cars are not the best at putting all that power down) and as far as I can tell 130mph is its max...I had it up to 125mph.

Well if you like what ya see please rate it and once again if you want to ask me some questions go ahead and I will do my best to anwser them!

Hey! It is a dealer item but for our color you have to buy an unpainted one and have it painted by a body shop. All together it cost me a little over $500.00.
