[@StreetGrandTour]

@beezynichols795 haha, to be fair, I made the picture, and it is a white stinger. I learned this from online dating when some women get us fellas. Lol

[@raiderreppin4life53]

Got my 2020 GT new had it for close to 5 years 85k lies NO ISSUES besides that dam recall ! Besides that I LOVE IT will never sell

[@krissgrez8470]

What’s the recall about because I don’t live in USA what should I replace or check ?

[@BrianXXIII]

Love the stinger I bet they are going to revive them

[@StreetGrandTour]

@BrianXXIII Thanks, brother, hopefully. It truly helped put kia on the map with enthuists.

Love my 2018 Stinger GT! I installed the JB4 2.5 years ago and just added the JB4 Race BEF and a TCU tune loaded via the EK1 Lite about 5 months ago. I’ve been running an E30 mix since I bought the car 2.5 years ago. 52,000 miles and no problems. Additionally I have the Eibach front and rear sway bars, and lowering springs, subframe collars, BMS differential brace, AEM intakes, Borla exhaust, Air Snorkels, Mishimoto oil catch can, garageline 20MM spacers and fuel it kit.

@@CrescentKnife how do you like the bef?

[@CrescentKnife]

@@StreetGrandTour I love it! I did screw up during the flashing process. I skipped the upload the patch file first step. SXTH got me squared away and saved my ECU. Besides screwing that up, everything else has been great! To me it was well worth it!

[@FordPickUPRed]

Hood looks super sweet!

[@StreetGrandTour]

@@FordPickUPRed appreciate it sir!

[@teewheels]

Do you have any issues with water getting under your hood?

[@Xetenor]

Gorgeous stinger. Best car I ever owned! I love my 23 GT2. Took me over a year to find a white AWD one absolute pain in the ass process with stealerships. I see you have the stock BOV. I am going to put my stock ones back on as my HKS ones might be causing issues with going into limp mode when going above 5k rpm when I let off the throttle. No JB4. Don't really want to tune the car, its my daily and I mostly just baby it honsetly I don't drive her hard. Going to get the hks spark plugs installed soon probably gap them at 0.028 to see if that will help as well. I believe they come at that gap so just need to check. Maybe in future I'll run JB4 it's just harder to get here in california.

[@StreetGrandTour]

Hi, yes, HKS, as well as other blow off valves, have a tendency to cause boost leaks or over boosting. The reason why I've stayed with stock valves. Jb4 is definitely a great way to go. Thanks for the compliment!

[@StreetGrandTour]

@@Xetenor inlovebthenlok of the newer body styles. Congrats on your car.

[@matasorentas5328]

Please share your experience regarding JB4, aftermarket intakes, vented Seibon hood and water. Any problems during rainy days? Any rust inside engine bay?

[@StreetGrandTour]

@matasorentas5328 no issues at all brother. The way the vents are made, little to no rain gets in. Intakes and exhaust make the turbos so much louder. With the jb4 you have a bolt-on high 11sec car. Not too shabby. Best part about it, it's a reliable high 11 sec car.

[@endurance1337]

I got the indigo special edition stinger. Love it.

[@Jytus]

Let me know if you'd sell me those front adro splitters, I've been wanting them but don't have the budget for full price splitters

[@Bo12346hhgfgdg]

How did you fit that car in the tiny bicycle garage??

[@StreetGrandTour]

😂. I do what I have to do.

[@RTD101-ec8ld]

Good video I hear so much about squeaking and rattling especially in the roof and trunk area also rotor warping causing shaking when breaking have you experienced any of these? If so what actions did you take?

[@StreetGrandTour]

@RTD101-ec8ld nothing with the roof as I don't have a sunroof. The trunk did rattle briefly. It was a simple fix. It's the latch, metal rubbing up against the hook that makes the noise. Fixed with adding rubber. 2 min fix did the trick. A lot of guys are complaining about the rotors warping and weren't breaking the brakes in property imo. They are 4 piston Brembo brakes, that bite hard but still needs time for the pad to seat properly before hard driving.

[@gmailgmail6200]

I have a 2020 GT awd. had a 2019 as well. All GTs with Brembos will have the brake shudder. Pads are the issue. Change pads first and resurface rotors. Then change rotors and pads later down the road. Rattle at the hatch mine was fixed by adding another teflon washer to each side of the hatch bumpers. Other than that no other issues. Oh and tires. Tires will not last if using summer tires. Every 20-30k miles. I went all seasons and have had lil wear. I’m at 43k miles and no issues. I’ve added a sub and amp because I love my music with bass. Loving my GT!!!!

[@jayjomillz]

Sir I hear a tic and yes it's very beautiful the carbon fiber looks so good sir very nice but the tic is very Concerning. I would love to get a GT2 but I may not fit I'm 6'4" lol keep up the great work from Cali

[@SSH939]

Fuel injectors. Normal

[@salvadorjuarez6094]

I’m 6’4 295 and i fit just fine in my 2021 gt2. Other than no one sitting behind me, i’m comfortable. Just to give you an Idea

[@StreetGrandTour]

​@@jayjomillz on start up, the fuel injectors are loud on this vehicle..it has been that way since I purchased it new. It's completely normal, goes away after a few seconds or so

[@Freepass561]

[@StreetGrandTour]
