hey, after using for a week, here's my comment smile.gif

Item: Custom made A-Fuji front and rear normal stroke absorbers, 20% stiffer than stock.
Application: Old Vios

Absorber appearance
- like normal OEM shocks as expected.

Absorber length
- front: didn't measure, hahaha...
- rear: around 3cm shorter than stock (good for me)

Installation
- front: no problem
- rear: the "washer" (i don't know what it should be called exactly) is abit larger than stock, so cannot go through the bracket. The mechanic polish off the washer abit so that it can go through, no worries.

Car appearance after installation
- I feel somehow the rear of the car get lowered abit (between bonnet and ground), maybe just like 1 to 2cm lowered, not so sure... kekeke.
- However, the gap between wheel and fender increases by about 1 finger. Press bonnet and boot downwards, the movement is very minimum. All these might due to 20% stifferness.

Ride feel
- firm rclxms.gif
- cornering less bodyroll, feel like 30% improvement (could be my stock shocks really worn out) drool.gif
- highway more stable, less floating. icon_rolleyes.gif
- uneven road, bumpy at rear, front is still ok.... I insert my old spring cushion at front and rear and it become less bumpy... but still rear soft abit will be better.
- So far didn't encounter any funny sound yet.


Overall I'm happy with my purchase, value for money, seller easy to deal with. 20% stiffer could be abit too hard, maybe I should try 15% stiffer at front and 10% stiffer at rear.

Thanks alot smile.gif smile.gif
