Hi Megadisc, I'm having the same situation with you. Having spring (stock spring) and Comfortable type absorber (Monroe) replaced, I can only feel there's very little improvement. cry.gif

I was thinking if the cushion buffer could help in bumpy road?

your Super Saga no need la. too powderful already. aircond also must be very cold like Antartica tongue.gif

anyway, dad asked me to convert the LMST to auto, since kaki sakit already. aih. waja also need service, this one oso need convert.  rclxub.gif

yeah almost reaching 0 degrees is fun LOL!

hmm, i'm tempted to swap gearbox with you lol. possible to provide gearbox specs (mainly the model # etc) to me? (perhaps get a mechanic to identify it)
mine's an old 3 speeder auto though, not a 4 speed so your fc will take a big hit if you tend to speed with your LMST

it does help to an extend. if you're up on using those, for the front i suggest using 2 x4 for both sides, rear suggestive, personally not a lot of difference placing on the rear.

reason being your front is way heavier than the rear, and it'll take the most impact upon hitting pot holes/bumps/irregularities earlier than the rear and you would typically slowed down enough for the rear to matter much at all.

DIY can also, stand infront the car, loosen the 2 bolts holding the distributor,  then move inwards to retard, outwards to advance ignition timing. Do it bit by bit. Remember to tighten back once adjusted. Do some marking before u pusing or if u dowan mark oso can  laugh.gif

bro, how do you test and confirm for pinging/knocking? what kinda harm to the engine are we looking at if ping/knocking occurs?

kasi the engine some load. i did 40-50 km/h on 4th and from there i listen for any pinging sounds. from spark plug oso can estimate my timing. learnt from here. i don have equipments like timing light and no cash to dyno as i like so i try and try again laugh.gif
i know its harmful, i guess to the pistons and valves? still fresh, not much knowledge. need ask sifoo sinister_sid icon_idea.gif brows.gif

You really need a timing light for this. Adjust it, take note then test. Last time I experimented and set too advanced, even light acceleration results in pinging. Quickly adjusted timing back. Also tried the other end, retard timing, and engine felt so sluggish blink.gif

eh everyone's been telling me no need timing light sad.gif

well this morning gave some test, flat roads can accelerate 160-170++ no problem while prior it'll struggle a little. i suppose after the accident early this year when they refitted the new distributor they didn't bother adjusting it properly and just went "full retard" (pun pretty f***ing much intended)

Well, i'm a science kinda person. If you can't measure it, you can't tell for sure. Remember my butt dyno statements last time? tongue.gif

If i'm not wrong, 4g13 timing is about 5 ± 2 BTDC @ 800 ± 100 RPM (googled this info). Verify with the sticker on the hood and this is the base to start with. With a timing light, you can check and adjust accurately, perhaps to 7 BTDC and see how it goes. If it pings, then reduce to 6 or even 5 if necessary. Otherwise, take a risk and push it to 8 and beyond, but always always listen out for pinging otherwise it's gonna be an expensive diy tuning tongue.gif

No idea... Pinjam one last time smile.gif

I looked around and saw this ad
http://www.lelong.com.my/inductive-xenon-t...7-01-Sale-I.htm

Maybe if you have enough kaki, share the cost and everyone can meet up and diy self tuning tongue.gif if you get 17 people, each one pay rm10 only tongue.gif
