The New "What did you do with your Z today" (with off topic replies) XXVII

Changed the transmission fluid in the Kia Forte koup. Manual states it needs only 2qts (that's how much drained out). When I put two quarts in it didn't start to overflow, so I added another quart and still didn't overflow. Drove it around for a bit and felt/sounded fine. Just find it odd is all.

3 hours later, damn thing is finally installed. We finally said screw it and just used self tapping screws to have the thing fit. If it's off by whatever MM, you can't tell.

I can't see any difference. haha. We messed around trying to align the 2 screw holes for 2 hours. Finally said screw it and broke out the self tapping. If anyone takes off the spoiler when i sell it, it will have 4 holes instead of 2. Meh.

I really want to order coilovers but I promised not to spend any more on the Z for a while, unless Beemaz decides to ship the nismo spoiler

You just did all that hard work putting the swifts on though and getting it aligned. Why do it all again?

I think it even looks good under the cover. It looks like a proper real sports car now finally!
