should be Segaria instead.
anyone know where can buy brake shims ?
No idea, but you can make one. Regarding the squeal, u may wanna apply grease around the mating points of the calipers, and also on the shims, that is if there are any

serviced radiator and changed coolant. the mechanic removed my thermostat dunno for what. he say better cooling wor. is it true? now my car temp is below normal operating range. even after its warmed up. what should i do?
Dude, get the mechanic to replace the thermostat immediately. You have to understand that erm... how the thermostat works. Thats not important.
Whats more important is that WHY is the thermostat PLACED THERE.
It is so that your engine will warm up faster in the morning and will stay at optimum operating temperature all the time. Colder is not always better bro due to certain reasons. Thermostat opens and allows water to pass through into the radiator for cooling when it reaches probably 90degrees or something and closes when the engine is too cool, perhaps 75degree?
The thermostat's function and the thermostat's task are two different things.
If your mechanic does not know how to check your thermostat, i'd suggest you replace the mechanic, not the thermostat bro.
If it's stuck-up, the bottom hose will be much much cooler than the top hose or was it vice versa which i cant rmb ; as the thermostat isn't allowing cooled water to enter the engine via the bottom hose.
Get the thermostat replaced, and the mechanic if possible =)

i'm on full set performax abs + spring , pretty stiff i could say. if there's some abs which can adjust the stiffness on the fly and without hurting the wallet would be great.
btw , i guess it's time to change my atf fluid. where can do machine full flush yea ? it started to slips and keep on spooling(rev) when it should engage instead. alot of problem rising up.

you have to make sure it's slipping first. If it's really slipping then flushing is not gonna solve the problem dude. It's a mechanical failure
