I seen how crazy the fog light prices were at the dealer, so I just put in upgraded headlight bulbs, and pulled the little "not fog light" player off, cut them and used a good 2 part plastic adhesive to put in some LED running lights that fit the holes perfectly. The only downside of the brighter headlight bulbs is that people tend to flash me a lot more Now thinking my brights are on. They're nowhere near HID bright though, so IDK why they complain.

Anyone know what the torque spec is for the axle nut on a 2013 spark? I did a bearing a bit ago and I couldn't find the spec anywhere so I just torqued it to what my last car required. I know that's not right though, because the pre-load is different for every bearing so I'd really like to know I have it right. Considering it holds the wheel on I'd say it's kind of important lol. Plus I'd like to get some life out of the bearing. It's not a hard job but Theyre rather expensive.

I'm looking at ordering a set of 1 1/4 inch ones for when I'm running my stock rims during the winter. IDK if that helps at all, considering I won't have mine for another few weeks

Hey I know everyone seems to be having problems when they install cold air intakes with the check engine light coming on. I thought I'd share my experience with mine. I bought a dc sports cold air intake for the spark, and I got a check engine light after I installed it, and it was running kinda rough. I left it go for a few days and after a few warm up and cool downs the check engine light is off and it's running fine again. I assume the computer compensated for the difference now. I waited a few days and still no light and all seems to be well.

You have to do real physical mods to the car, and then take it to an actual dyno tuner to re-adjust your maps. So throw an intake and exhaust on it before mess g with anything further

I was just curious if anyone knew of any performance parts like I take manifolds or headers available for the spark. I've looked a bit and haven't seen anything, but I could be wrong.

Chop your exhaust off. I cut mine after the cat and just put a dc sport tip on it so it can flow with no resistance. Now it's over fueling like crazy. I actually ordered the cai to even everything out. It should balance it for you.

Surface rust for sure but it was still solid when I popped it off a few weeks ago. The only thing that was rusted seriously were the flange bolts,those are unusable already. The rest of the car seems to be holding up pretty well against the salt actually.

Hey I'm looking for some kind of better shock assembly. Nothing like coil overs but something better than the stock set up. It looms like a pretty simple mount, maybe something from another car crosses over?

Sweet. I was hoping it would be a simple set up like that, so new shoes solves all of my problems. Thank you very much

Everyone says that intake mods do nothing, but that's wrong. If your stock intake is restrictive,then when you relieve it all of the resistance that was drawing your engine down can be used for power. Granted it's only like 1-2 HP but let's be accurate now

Well it took a few Ohio winters but I wore out my e brake doing stupid things in the snow. My question for you guys being, do you know how the e brake works o. The spark? I've seen a few different configurations on different cars and I was wondering if I just have to buy like a set of e brake pads for it, or if I'm looking at a whole assembly or somthing. Anyway any input here would be helpful. I'll probably be replacing my brake shoes next weekend and I'll probably tear into that project as well. (my spark has 100k miles on it, I'd say it's time)
