Abesonic every damn Kia forum no one has responded -___- that's why I asked you guys
Buttchug alright I'll do that and use your sig if I can find it! Hahaha and actually it cost a lot for the motor for this damn car! I'm telling my parents to just buy a e34! Haha

anyways the best cheapest way to get this car back running is to swap in the same motor

Buttchug that sig was funny as hell and I would use but i don't know how! Hahaha and yeah I'm done searching codes because it's a pain and my parents can't afford a new car so we have to work on my mothers car and it's a beeotch trying to find motors that will work with this damn car :\

[Dj Buttchug]

okay. first off you need to search for engines that are compatible by engine code.

Most engines that are fwd configured can be mounted in different chassis provided the right accessories and mounts are used.

kia is mainly a FWD manufacturer so your dealing with several fwd engines only some of which can be found in rwd or awd applications.


ps op. im pissed at you for not using my sig. blow me. jk love dj
