Any particular reason or sumthin in yor mind when u ask this? #095

Hehe u will feel tempted to go stiffer setup..i knew coz i experienced it.

Vincent jes a friendly reminder, yes u can harden of stiffen up the abs, but bear in mind that the oem spring rate is low around 3.5kg mm so if u go stiffer abs the spring can bottom out easily n even introduce the unwanted ochestra music.

The next step is to find a stiffer spring e.g lgt , after market springor even evo x if can fit laa, then u go to titan to match back the abs damping with the new uprated spring. That is the limitation of partial setup.

Yup why not..#095

Yup maybe for the rear u can ask titan if the titan spring can fit or not.the front definitely cannot. Hehe i think lgt one still soft tho..

U need to buy the spring from titan.. 095

Yors is partial rite? Definitely cannot fit lor.. People who opt for fullsetup sure la can fit.

U can try xabi or xai's one...they use 8kg front 6 kg rear...hehe botack may getting even stiffer...

weh.. xai is the most senior frequent visit person of titan now.. i dare not touch his position....

#095# kih kih..

dear Mr Mat..#060#...

yup.. i do agree as we travel long distances, the abs will get heated due to prolong continous movements of the piston, friction etc .. yes, my previous experience with twin tube abs (e.g stock abs, HWL adjestables) there was noticeable damping fade( shock fade) which means the abs became wallowy n soft..and later will effect the handling considerably.

but for monotube design, the gas is totally separated from the oil and is highly pressurized. it prevents internal bubbles created which impede the performance thus monotube design will not experience shock fade after long hours/highly spirited driving.. (unker google to see the monotube design and advantage..)

Even it is heated i felt that the titan abs damping rate is still consistent.. example, after several hours of driving in the hot afternoon from Grik to Simpang pulai u can just imagine how hot it is.. but i continue climbing the simpang pulai straight to cameron highlands with maintaining the speed and the abs damping still feels consistent. maybe just a bit softer coz really pushing hard the suspension..

as well as the tires and lingkages, tires of course it will become harder (especially atr sport 2) . thats why i suggest only 32 psi front n 31 psi rear for this tire.. lingkages especially on rubber bushings somehow may xperience softer due to rubber character and later of course wear and tear.. i think u are aware of this...

but combining all of this factors, the xperience will be different from ones ride to others..due to all the factors mentioned above..#095#
my humble sharing session...

vincent if possible try to get the LGT and R3 spring and do some spring rate test at titan facility.. get to know their spring rate so that maybe we can share to all on the rates. maybe eibach, proride or what ever in the market... LGT spring partial setup? none that i know of.. #095#

as mentioned in this forum before, handling consists of many factors-

type of tires, tire size, tire pressure, chasis strenghtening (ultraracing bars fender bars, bigger antiroll bars, foaming, stiff rings, roll cage, welding), suspension setup (damping rate, spring rate, monotube twintube), height of car, camber alignment, stiffer bushings mountings, car weight, and long list and of course others are more expert in this..

so Peter's car may feel different from yours due to one or many factors above.

i dont know whether they have done partial set for lancers or not. but i know and see it by myself lancers changed to a full setup. that i confirm as i was there to watch it... so if they change to full setup, i doubt the owner wants to know the ori spring rate...

Kih kih... From your humble agent #095#

Thats good.. At least now i know.. ..

#095#

Unker are u ok? Excited to go back kampung is it?

Oh forgot the number #095#
