Bro, you ok or not man? Be careful lar dei ... this one time kena only right?

Well, at least you're safe.

I'm not an expert, but normally when you accelerate around a corner, you don't increase grip. You lose grip, which results in understeer. Normally, people react to this by counter steering, which results either in oversteer or totally lose grip and slide straight. I could be wrong though.

Basically, if you don't know what the corner ahead of you is like, don't try the accelerating at mid point trick.

Even if it's a corner you're familiar with, don't do that if you cannot see what's ahead of you.

If possible, at best, just maintain the speed around the corner, or maybe let it slow down a bit if it's really unexpectedly winding / sloping downwards.

+newbie+, im ok, my car looked ok..

in that case, think of this as a blessing in disguise. Now you get a 1.6 CPS engine.

ditch or 7k rpm kills...or maybe both...

i dun think they will let u claim the engine block which is not same as original 1.3, doesn't make sense at all, if like that everyone will try to spoil their ori engine and claim for more powerful engine.

It an auto transmission..

that's because you did not understand / or underestimate your satria's behaviour. satria is tail happy. let alone with lower than 195 of tyre width. especially in wet. i've tried moving the battery to the rear and using a different set(heavier 16") wheels / rear on my satria project car last time.

saga blm problem was very much caused by it's it's bad center of gravity. any 195/50(handling) or 55(comfort)/r15 tyre with lower and stiffer suspension will be just fine. gab adjustable, anyone?

gab adjustable, too much for a saga BLM.yet its an investment.maintenance required annually.it's a catch for car modders, but normal car enthusiasts, too much for me.

What's the rear suspension setup for the BLM? I took a peek and don't see springs.

Don't have the manual right now.

torsion beam suspension..

How you din c the spring, its very obvious to see.

Actually can see, haha...

But I'm just wondering, how will it work if I were to change the back setup. As you can see, the absorber and the spring are actually detached.

So if I were to change to one of those types where the springs encircles the absorber, will I do away with the original springs?

If rear suspension too soft cause problem to you when full load, then just add coil spring and match with heavy duty absorber will do. You will get original height with stiffer rear setup. Lowered spring is harder but its low down.

Absorber are more easy to sell out cause the life span shorter then spring 3-4times. By well maintain of absorber your spring can last 10 years.

Hi, does anyone have problem with insurance company, usually it takes how long to recieve my insurance documents?

Bought this car on April, called them on May.

It is been three months already, i still havent receive it.

Any Saga onwers here encountered this kind of problem before?

Thank you.

Danke... but if I get one of those absorbers that already have a spring encircling it, do we still keep the original springs which is detached at the rear?

If the adjustable is 1 pieces design then your doesn't need the spring anymore. Leave it there or not just up to you.
Btw, got any picture of the coilover you have?

still on standard now.... just trying to understand how the whole setup work before i start plonking my cash on and tune-up

Just wonder if you found any rear adjustable with 1 pieces design, do share with me. I m looking for it too.

sure thing... what happen to this thread? everyone's so quiet lol
