KIA K3 Owners check-in!

[hairywolf]

Our stock rims is 17x7J 49ET.

 

Flush can try 8-8.5J 45ET.

Thanks for the info bro.

Not going for 18" or 8.5J rims, when on 18", you'll find your brake & rotor too small, next will be BBK, coil over and camber kit...haha, never ending, so i think i'll stick to 17"

Was think to change to SSBH and ATF cooler, any WS can do both at a time?

No need la bro don't do ATF cooler. You will invite more problems or void the warranty. Our brakes is good enough no need for SSBH

I have been through all this and invited many new problems. Best is to keep car as stock as possible. Factory parts are the best parts for the car. Suggest you save the money to do other things like ice , at least you get to enjoy it Everyday and it's a world of difference compared to our stock sound.

Our car has no alarm one ah?

[Junjian]

Can we use LED headlight higher than 55W? Or the 55W only applies to halogen bulb?

I see a lot of led headlight is at least 70W. I scared not safe to use.

[Kevinhwc]

I think no

Have. Uses the horn as the alarm if someone breaks in

How to break in bro? I tried un wind the window, lock door, and unlock from inside and open door. No alarm. Use key to unlock door and open also no alarm.

[Enzomatrix]

hmm i tried opening the car door with car key after it was locked normally.. the car horn went off with hazard lights.

This is correct behaviour if I am not wrong. My Impreza also like that last time. Now my Sonata got no key hole to unlock like that so I can't test it.

[teomingern]

Oh that one got lar.... but I don't use it... I mean I think the Elantra some trims not keyless ignition so the key is there... not like mine where you have to remove the key...

Ah I got it. The remote cannot be in range that the car can sense it. Then alarm will goes off.

hmm i didnt took my key away from the car. juz took out the physical key n open and it sounded off.

LED bulbs plug n play or it comes with the ballast and stuff and we will need to hide it somewhere?

 

 

How much is the Philips?

 

I am using LEDs with built in heatsinks, H8 for my foggies and H7 for lowbeams. Output is rated/claimed at 7200 lumens a pair.

 

Both bought from ebay, about S$50-60 a pair.

 

 

 

very good illumination and does not blind oncoming traffic as our headlights come with projection housings with a proper cut off to prevent glare.

Plug n play. Comes with a small box that converts the power for the leds i think. Not sure if thats what u call a ballast. I hide everything into the casing n use the stock cover to cover back. Nothing is exposed

The K3 comes with factory alarm. Open the bonnet and on the TOP left side will be the alarm. Your 'beeping' horn is behind the front bumper. To test the alarm, unwind the driver's side window, lock the door and remove the transponder key away from the car for more than 3ft. Wait for 1 minute for the car to be armed. Go and unlock the door and the ONLY the opening of the door will activate the alarm. Press unlock button on transponder key to disarm. Take note the transponder key must not be within 3ft of the car while waiting for the car to arm.

yeah the small box is the ballast. Able to share photos of the internal on how u hide everything into the casing? I'm thinking of changing the bulbs but wondering where to hide them.
