I was about to buy new bolts but the factory ones were just fine...

Only one new bolt was installed,to fit the ECU scaning port in the hood...

Are they self locking nuts on there? If they are then shouldnt they have more thread through the locking part to be totally secure? I would be concerned that they could vibrate loose or have you used Loctite?

[Stelios....]

They all have 2 spiral left...
I was about to install longer ones,but the mechanic assured me that they are fine...
He used loctite(or something like this) i think...

I have them on,about 5000km now...I regularly check of they get loose,but the haven't got at all...Sp i suppose i 'll be fine...

On sunday i might get into track with those....Lets see...

Nice kit ! It looks awesome underneath but probably would void the warranty? Lol

[Stelios....]

Why to void warranty????It doesn't interfere with anything mechanical....The springs or the suspension is not covered anyways...

I installed it in a Kia service,and they just looked amazed...None told anything about warranty lol

Of course the springs and suspension are covered by the warranty. It a "bumper to bumper" warranty that covers all but wearing and service related parts. Kia would use the fitting of these parts to void that part of it.

Why should they mention the warranty during your service, did you need any repairs carrying out.

+1 on that one dude...

[Stelios....]

Which part that is not wearing ans service related,are you afraid of not be covered by warranty????
I suppose i wouldn't have to fear about much...

Maybe in your country dealer is a bit strict.......
I have changed shocks into warranty while i used lowering springs....

If you change an air filter...you void the warranty?Strictly you do but here noone cares...

Sounds like a good setup Stelios
Have you been on to the track with the upgraded suspension yet?
