btw...try not to get tein...of coz it is nice...but price wise...3.8k for hilo soft hard...no way...sumore u cant customise ur spring rate..so u kinda fix with hit....gab will gv u wat ever spring rate u1...for free....u1 10k f 10k r also they gv u..

im sure handling wise..both are equal..
*
tein springs ler...not coilovers....

and i agree that GAB is a better buy... for somewhere around the same price (i think slightly cheaper) u get pillowball and also any spring rates u want..

but if it were me...id take something a little hard... that just the whole purpose of having adjustables in my view... brows.gif


i dunno about the teins now... but the older teins for the older satria..alot of people complain they were too soft...a friend of mine who drives a satria actually managed to meet a tein engineer while he was here working on the suspension for another friend's mini cooper s....managed to ask that engineer why the satria teins were so soft....and his response was basically (loosely translated to normal malaysian street language)...

By Law... the maximum RON allowed for fuels in malaysia is RON97.

VPower just has extra additives in it....but still RON97

5Zigen Border 304 is known to be one of the loudest mufflers around...so make sure ur willing to go through that.... when i bought my EF it came with it...but no centre box...straight pipe from extractor to muffler...i cannot tahan i added a mid box and it was better.

unfortunately finding an original Border 304 here abit tough....got one guy selling in garage sales...dunno still got or not...and its with a 2" inlet...so just nice for CPS..and 2" inlet in this country abit rare...mostly 2.3" or 2.5"..even my old one was 2.3" even though my pipes were 2"

my friend told me jaafar selling replicas for about 2xx per piece and sounds the same...not too sure since ive never been to jaafar before or heard a replica...

the kentut sound is most likely coz ur running a little rich....almost all manufacturers run their cars a little rich to ensure engine reliability...

2nd video....me no like...i HATE that sound when they release the pedal...its like...VRROOOOOOMMM....peeeeeeeeeeeeekkkkk..... doh.gif

make sure u upload the video once done...make a video of the CPS engage point oso....me wan hear how CPS sounds like going through a Border 304 (be it ori or replica) biggrin.gif

wow...ur friend is lucky....on 1malaysia day oso my friends experience an accident right in front of them involving one of their friends...

the DC5/FD2R group had a convoy to genting.. and somewhere along the way up or down (not sure) one of them got into a very bad accident... wat i heard was the guy (driving DC5) rear ended a trailer at 200km/h

it took bomba a long time to extract him out of the wreck... the guy was nyawa2 ikan in the car while waiting for the bomba to get him out...

just one of the reasons why i find most people's fascination with hitting 200km/h funny (and unnecessary)...and i almost never reply to questions on "how to mod to be able to reach 200km/h n above"...laju sangat nak ke mana pun?

to me, its the 400m timing that counts... also powering out of corners.

u cant compare how an 15" looks on an EK and a waja...

body lines, width, arch etc etc are different...and because of that, the 15s look fine on the EK and small on the waja...

but if u get 15s i think those 7" wide rims would be nice, paired with 195/55 and must be lowered.

top of my head... i can tell u that the 4 spoke lenso wheel (i think the model is maglite) is 15*7 +40 biggrin.gif

and there are alot of taiwan wheels that are 15*7...if im not mistaken the taiwan Advan RGs are also 7"
