where did you have it changed bro?

i did mine at Perodua Bangi.

cost per bearing that i bought : RM70 for each one of it. Aftermarket NTN bearing made in japan.

cost per perodua original bearing quoted for me : RM98.50 for each one of it.

Labour charge : RM35 per side. RM70 all of it.

Total i paid for both side of front bearings replacement : RM210

It will be RM267 if i use the original bearing from perodua.

Aftermarket bearing can be many types. High speed bearing, heavy duty bearing and just normal bearing. The first two types of course better than the ori especially if you are a type of the driver that use big wheels, drive fast and the road you're using is tough.

For my NTN Bearing made in japan however, i don't know whether it can be considered the high speed or even a heavy duty type. But, since the price is cheaper than the ori and the seller said it is better than the ori, i just bought it. i have nothing to lose. i know the ori bearing is crap because it kaput a few months after i installed this new 15' wheels. So, if the NTN bearing that i'm using right now can last longer than the ori, i will say it's worth it. if it can't, well, the price wasn't that high than the ori anyway  laugh.gif

ps : I do believe NTN Bearing is better than the ori. or so i hope wink.gif

:: so bro,wat other part did u replace or must change after using 15" to prevent hitting fender,ground etc. hmm.gif

HOWEVER, if you have the money and you want to change the full suspension setup (spring+absorber) to aftermarket or adjustable etc3, you can just forget about any of the above. because i believe the tyres will not hit the fender due to the stiffer suspension.

:: now i like this statement rolleyes.gif
how much $$ range for full aftermarket suspension setup? i think this is my first or second aim
after get my car (they said after raya).coz really dont like 13" with rim cap sweat.gif

bear in mind, sport spring+stock absorber WILL make your stock absorber kaput faster due to stiffer spring.

for me what part u need to get first is depends on what you want.. looks? performance?

:: this will b my 1st car,1st experiance,1st of anything.thats why want to choose only good item for longer
usage.as 14",oso looks cun if lowered sikit as long not hit anythin.

too bad bro,im at sbh,mybe limited choise of rim cry.gif . looks,performance,can i get both? rolleyes.gif
if possible,wanna buy one by one part.
btween rim or sport spring or abs.what must come first.

let say use 14" sport rim + stock spring + stock abs = result?
use stock rim + sport spring + stock abs = stock absorber kaput faster due to stiffer spring (as bro camel90 says)
use stock rim + stock spring + aftermarket abs = result?

depends on your pocket. more money for branded products = more soundproofing results

iridium not really worth. to me, no significant improvements.. perhaps can be used to save the hassle of changing spark plugs often. but again, if i were u, use the money on something else. been there, done that  smile.gif
*
:: what part is "something else" can u guide me bro?
im still new with these smile.gif
can share what other parts installed in ur viva?
i dont have any idea what else to buy.

ps - rim,or anything related with it will not consider right now.sebab tengah bina budget for it laugh.gif

Back then i went for Bendix Metalking Titanium brakepad first. Then got budget i went for Ultra Racinf strut bar,front lower bar and rear lower bar and cap ayam exhaust system consist of new muffler,new rear section,removed cat con but the mid section is still stock.

Now going for spring and the remaining Ultra Racing rear anti roll bar,rear tower bar and femder bars.

In future will go for the absorber and complete rework exhaust system.

The climax will be air filter,port and polish engine and swap engine? Hahahhhahahaahah

::more and more ultra racing bro flex.gif .
seems like sturt bar are more important to us.
lucky here also got ultra racing dealer rclxm9.gif

:: Bendix Metalking Titanium brakepad..will replace with produa brakepad right?
