I am visiting Seoul and I was just wondering if anyone knows if I can get buy any S2k parts for cheap around here? Thanks. If so, I can just head over to the Walker Hill Casino and win a couple hundred dollars real quick. haha

 

I was in South Korea for almost 3 years and I never found anything worth buying for the S. Good luck though!!!

 

I learned from this forum that the front axle gear of older Kia Sportage model is the same design as ours and it was 4.44. I had my brother in Korea look for one in junk yards. He found one for 50,000 Won (~$50) and I broght the ring and pinion only over in one of my trips and they fit perfectly. I didn't even have to break them in since they were used (very slightly--the Sportage is rear-wheel drive by default). I would say that was a good deal for me.

Please do a search here if you want to know the specific model year and the part nubmers and so on. I will have to dig deep in my stuff to get the info. It's been few years ago but I am sure you can still find those there.

 

Good info Thanks
