Added on December 25, 2012, 9:36 amEh, those installed with Titan, the sound occured on low speed? below 30kph? The sound happens on every setup? Regardless of partial / full setup?

Thanks matkela for the confirmation. I'm on partial setup and only got 2 back. Almost got charged the original non-GB price as well. Immediately after installation it was noticeably a firmer ride. No sound yet so far but I have not fully tested it yet. What I did notice was that when I roll slowly at say 20km/h and then jam the brakes, I felt the car slightly dive, squat, dive, squat, dive, stop. If you get what I mean. I'm not sure if I was delusional, hehe. Gonna do more tests after this. Also, is this wrapper here to stay for good?

Dust covers like this, perhaps?

I think it really is dust cover for the wrapping, mentioned in their facebook before. Need to find the link though. you mean only 2 abs installed at the rear? Front not yet install? That's why got the dive squat problem during brake?

I am planning to get titanised this weekend too. How about the stock abs? they give back to you right?

me got back the rear stock abs only as the front they cut the bracket off n welded it to their abs to support stock spring... our rear is not inverted monotube only front is... padan muka... laugh.gif
*
So what you mean is:
1. Inspira stock is front inverted monotube while rear wasn't. or
2. Inspira after this GB titan, front is inverted while rear is not? shocking.gif

Getting only the rear asb back due to the front asb bracket was cut and no longer usable? shocking.gif

I'm getting the partial setup as well, anything to inform them when making appointment? Planning to do it this Saturday after Friday TT and make appointment today or tomorrow as well. hmm.gif

I think everyone who are in the TITAN GB should know what they are in for. For an example:

1- Those going for Partial Setup should know that your front abs will have to be sacrificed since they will have to cut and remove your coil mounting base to be welded on the TITAN abs. ***Don't make a fuss, you made the decision to stick with the current springs right? tongue.gif

2- YES, from what has been 'analyzed' the rears aren't Inverted

3- If you decided to fix them TITANs on any given days/dates, ENSURE you have called them up earlier (A few days in advance) and have stated clearly that you are coming to get the installation done. ENSURE that the abs are prep'ed based on your requirements.

4- IT'S BEST to go as early as possible, say 9.00am when they open so that you get the first que in the bay.

Alternatively, read of MY EXPERIENCE at TITAN.

Bro, thanks for the update! notworthy.gif

Mate...I understand your frustrations and disgruntles. I have been IN & OUT of TITAN countless of times and each time I pay them a visit, I spend a minimum of 6-10 hours. Heck, I've even left my car there for 3 days for them to solve the problems....and guess what, they still haven't solved my problems yet.

I believe to a certain level about them not listening to their customers on complaints and etc BUT believe me when I say this, they will listen to you if you know how to talk to them. Work with them and not let them work it out for you. I have managed to solve say about 70% of my problems by 'Working with Them'.

YES, there are issues with the quality of materials being used. It's an very intricate & sensitive subject to discuss about and am not gonna do so on a open forum BUT steps are being made to improve on this. I know that because my ride is now the sort off 'test unit' for their new prototype parts and design.

I still believe things will get better because of the countless of people on TITANs that I have met thus far. People who have been on TITANs between 2-5 years all shared the same frustrations in the beginning but have now all settled in with their shocks. Having custom-made shocks on your ride entails to trial and error. It is not some mass produced product and racked up the shelves. So give it a lil' more time.

A BIG YES on the fact that they HAVE to solve these issues because they have got it right in their other produces thus they must oblige to the reality of solving the problems for those with it.

I am not sure about you but I am VERY VERY SATISFIED with the performance of the shocks. It's an absolute joy and I love how my ride handles now. I have no complaints against how the shocks perform. It's again an absolute joy for me with the exceptions of the 'Sound of Music' that comes along with it.
*
I'm in partial set, the sound i'm having not sure is the same with all you guys. Its like "thud thud thud" sound once car running for a while. Guess that is 10 mins - 15 mins drive after that. Easier to hear at low speed, maybe the engine sound overwrite the thud sound in high speed. The sound happen in the rear i think. hmm.gif

Not much leave to go titan shop there for troubleshooting. rclxub.gif

Sounds like Titan still cannot find the answer.

FYI, i went twice after installation to retune. The thud gug glug still around after some distance travelled. The funny thing is, after Titan reset, short while only less sound.

Titan has to find the penultimate solution
*
What you mean by Titan reset? is it reinstallation? Short while only less sound? How about "long while", thud glug glug sound came back?

QUOTE(Xai-V-iaX @ Dec 30 2012, 10:15 PM)
It could be because of the rear pistons. Am not sure which version pistons are in your shocks.

..but then again that's if its the same sound/problem that others faced as well. Can't tell till have tested your ride.  wink.gif
*
How about your problem status? Confirm its piston? or still yet to find out from them?

What would be the logical next step up from Titan, guys? One that's not too harsh?

Wa, so fast think others liao, haha. So the sound problem still not solved after today's visit to Titan? They did anything for troubleshooting?

QUOTE(matkela @ Dec 31 2012, 02:05 PM)
Thanx William. I am taking ur advice in my stride too. I am buying some more time, in the sense that i will wait n see what Berzerker and Blursquid will update after they did on their cars. I know those 2 gentlemen will kindly report.

Thanks for the explanation bro, I will try my luck to go there asking for re-installation again see if there is any luck with it.

QUOTE(Xai-V-iaX @ Dec 31 2012, 02:22 PM)
Well, all I can say it's part of 'Trial and Error'....

You were lucky that WL actually took time to reply to your text messages (tho' it was just simple arse OK). I rarely get replies to the texts I send to him prior to going down to Titan for GOD knows what the 36th time or something next.

I do agree and understand your frustration on the wasted time, energy & petrol and even toll. I share the same frustration as well but these are things that comes along with having 'custom' stuffs fitted on ones ride.

I have a long list of experiences at Titan that I may be able to share but that might just take too much space. tongue.gif

Oh ya, by the way and not in the mood to ruin your knack BUT you CAN'T talk to them let alone work together with them on the theories of Compression & Rebound or that polyurethane is better than rubber. They won't be able to understand the theoretical explanation behind it.

Give it some time... nod.gif

This trial and error process really... haiz... doh.gif

Allright, seems like revisiting them again and again is the only thing to do in order to fix the sound. Hopefully not long. hmm.gif

bro since you've installed the 23mm ARB, may i ask what do u think about this mod/fix? effective?
cause i'm thinking of upgrading to 23mm too  hmm.gif
*
Erm... I not sure on the diff. blush.gif Cuz i installed both ARB and FSB at the same time, can feel less body roll before the Titan setup. Satisfied with current setup though, maybe you can test drive my car if you come to TT this friday? nod.gif

QUOTE(vincentleong @ Jan 2 2013, 02:52 PM)
I think I'm having the same setup as Xai now IINM. They replaced the pistons and the noise is negligible now. It is not audible with the sound system on soft volume and aircond on. Turn off everything and let the car roll the noise sounded very faint, like muffled. WL did not acknowledge this faint noise but I'm actually quite happy with this setup already and will stick with these abs until it's time to service to find out if they have worked out a resolution yet. I must say when given the chance, UR and WL will listen to my feedback and attempt to resolve/mitigate the issue as Xai said.
*
I see. Thanks for the feedback, maybe i will ask them to replace my piston as well this coming friday. Hopefully the sound will be negligible after that. thumbup.gif
