QUOTE(zerohunter @ Jun 19 2013, 05:36 PM) first u can try add spring buffer, if still not satisfied, change to BLM spring ok tq! blm need cutting also? fb post say perdana's better but need to cut. but read somewhere cut no good!   QUOTE(lingleeyen @ Jun 19 2013, 05:37 PM) I did complain in posts before that the rear suspension is too oft for my liking. It waved up and down when I go through a certain portion of Kesas. Especially when I put my parents and bro at the back. It is so hard to drive at that section when the rear just do not want to settle down and let me cruise properly. so we need 2 pairs for front and back?I then added the spring buffer cushion. This is not the permanant solution, but it is definitely cheaper. The result might vary towards individual, but I am satisfied with what RM160 (2 pairs) does for me. At that section, no more bouncy. Yes, bouncy is the word. The cushion is just a rubber ring like to be put in between your spring coils. If you go to shops, they will measure your spring height and diameter when they complete jack up your car. Front Spring is larger than rear for our car. size they will measure/decide for us, as long they carry the product. tqtq later can go pusing nearby find |

QUOTE(dvinez @ Jun 19 2013, 05:41 PM) so we need 2 pairs for front and back? If you are not feeling any bouncy feel for the front, then just install the back. I installed front also to see if it can reduce road vibration. It does help. Did not regret paying 80 bucks extra. size they will measure/decide for us, as long they carry the product. tqtq later can go pusing nearby find You can buy from GS in LYN. I think there are 2 forumers selling at 90 (??) for 2 pairs. Different brand. I believe they are knowledgable in spring size and he will be able to give you the correct size. What they are selling is AMT (??) and Watya. What I have installed is R-Bach. What I have observed is that the R-Bach is not powdery rubber feel. 'Feels' more solid and durable. Feel la. The price is double though. 160 for front and back. I installed mine in SM Motorport in Alam Damai Cheras. Should be nearer to your location. Good service. CHeck them out.

Whenever I go through the same spots and holes (before and after this cushion installation), the sound is more like glung glung instead of glong glong.

QUOTE(dvinez @ Jun 19 2013, 10:11 PM) got installed alrdy, common amt brand for rear only. Placebo effect. If it is installed at the rear, you wont feel the slight difference in cornering. Straightline will hv better stability. This is because you are sitting at the front. Now, get your wife to sit at the back and take the same route she complained.macam got improvement, feel less driving on water on some road, and somehow feel it oso ride become more beku/stiff? |
