hwl h/l & s/h is one of the better suspension around for waja. used to have 'em installed in my car.
make sure to replace the stock absorber mounting(if there is a sign of crack, jolted up) / worn out lower arm / bushes prior to installing 'em.

from own experience, my ori absorber mounting crack a few months after using it due to too much urge to push in corner.
road noise become more obvious too ; this is mainly due to the harder hwl which just kill the worn out arm bushes.

noted.. btw whats ur spring rate that time ur using hwl hi/lo so/ha?.. i was planing to on 8k front 6k rear.. ask the shop he said the hardness is still ok.. but my brother said it maybe abit hard..

bro u google image for brake caliper pin. after changed only 1 pin at each side, noisy is gone or reduced almost completely. brake pads has nothing to do with the noise in my case. u can change all the pins(4) to ensure its solved.

how much for the pin bro..? need to be ori or anything?

rm 25 with installation, not ori, dont know need or not. it is still doing the job.

can't recall my hwl setting but its definitely lower than 8k f / 6k r. those are too stiff for waja. as good as killing the soft functionality of the abs.
btw, i did used 8k f / 6k r setup while still on tein superstreet. useful if you're on gsrt engine(heavier front) and using 205/45/r17 with frequent touge'.
but it will be a bad moves considering the potholes all over our road.
for customize spring on stock engine, 6k f / 4k r is fine.
if you insisted on anything higher, you might consider changing the arm bushes to pu type to maintain the elasticity.

p/s : added a real POISON

thanks bro, will update it when i changed the pin

Hi everyone. New here, I'm driving a 4g18p of waja. The facelift type. Wanted to start mod the performance of it.....
What should I start with? An open pod or extractor?

How much is it to buy just the front spring for adjustable? anyone know?

oh hi. welcome here =)

if u want, do preventive maintainence with elton (thundergod_cid) 1st, like threebond and others like reflash.

then u can go to basic things :
1.breath in and out easier - air filter and exhaust. (decat, extractor, drop in or open pod)

Remapping ecu?

Depend what you aim and budget.

1st step mod i would ask you to perform preventive maintenance on the engine first then understand your engine how it works and what you want to mod. After knowing what to mod and you must see the reason and consequences on moding each stuff.

ya depend on budget too.. as told by steve here better u go step by step then u can understand the gain and losses you get from mods..

now im interested with open pod for my car. which brand will suit or have better performance?

I think you still dont understand... perhaps you was looking for sound effect not performance.

We cant judge your car condition from the forum futhermore if your car is auto, openpod will make it worst. Let me recommend you your first step.

1> Threebond your throttle body.
2> Change your oil and protect your engine with Lambda premier.
3> Now check your car vacuum and compression.

if everything ok, save the money just go and reflash a custom rom with wideband test.
If manual car then you may use open pod. If auto just use the drop in.

steven, my car is a manual car. so open pod will suit right.
because i hear my friend that open pod can make the rpm go lighther izit?
and about the threebond, lambda? what is it?

please visit my below signature for the cleaning stuff, that includes ecu reflashing.

thanks

got it. thanks ThunderGod_Cid

Yup Elton will explain it to u....

BTW: open pod for stock car actually will slow down the car about 15% because your engine low rev mapping cant cater the amount of the air on low rev high load. you need to change the mapping data or Elton can replace the whole ECU data to performance rom.
