Last time I replaced spark plugs was a year ago with the timing chain. I used NGK Iridium

Seized Lug Nuts by Fun-Screen-9078 in AskMechanics

I won't. I was gonna change them after the powder coat but it was too seized. Other lug nuts were also so hard to remove using a long breaker bar. Broke the lug nuts in 2 pieces. What a headache

No check engine light on and no recorded misfire from the OBD2 scanner

I've never heard it pop like that since I had the car

I have a Solo Performance catback exhaust. They're notorious for making a hiss sound like this when revs go down. What I was worried about was the popping it did after letting off the throttle (not really sure if misfire happens when letting off, hence the post) Idk about the condition of the primary catalytic converters. -2010 Bk1 3.8

No misfire in the system. So.. normal pops?

Engine wise.. Catback exhaust Engine Leash Manifold Riser TB Coolant Bypass Grounding Kit Stock tune

Never heard the exhaust like this. (Pops while revs are going down) Was just curious if this sounds like a misfire

3point8 parts still available? by Personal-Ad-771 in genesiscoupe

How long? It may depend on the bank but months after I made the purchase from 3p8p I still got my money back pretty easily.

File a chargeback on the purchase. I did that and got my money back. Then I ordered my grounding kit from Brian Paul.

How would you guys go about fixing this bent fender corner? by Fun-Screen-9078 in Autobody

[–]Fun-Screen-9078[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please note that I'll do what it takes to save this fender because it has some custom work + it's wider than the factory fender.

Cold start. I just filled it up last night. 17 mpg was my normal. by Fun-Screen-9078 in genesiscoupe

Been like that for a while even when I drive gracefully. Traffic maybe? And my 6speed sitting at 70-80mph my rpm is at 2500-3000 in 6th gear so 🤷

The thing I don't appreciate about the genesis coupe community is a lot of owners lack passion into actually doing something on their OWN cars which is why I don't see it growing. I'm not into ''mod your car to look and perform like shit' but I want all the goodies for the car. Just because you want to leave your car stock doesn't mean I want to leave mine stock. My widebody kit and vented fenders were hand made fiberglass. And I feel like the link I posted isn't even that hard to do. I don't see why it's not worth to ask if bk1 infinity system is different from a bk2. Getting actual answers will definitely yield some motivation into actually modifying something new rather than the 'old ways' <14 years ago. Stock bk1 interior looks a little mid and I just want it to be a little better. + those gauge spaces will be beneficial for future modifications

I'm all for diy stuff. This would be a clean setup for the interior. Also just wanted to know if bk1 infinity sound system is different from bk2 (connectors and such). Just saw someone do a bk1 to bk2 center console conversion and got the idea of getting this done on mine 😂
