do u feel more stiff for the rear suspension after added ARB?
I don't want sacrifice comfort too much because need to fetch ppl always.

Adding one or two bars will not alter the car's stiffness by a huge margin.

If you go for the regular front strut bars and rear anti roll bar combo, the comfort level is not that noticeable.

is it become slightly comfort or less comfort ?

As a passenger, not that noticeable.

As a driver, you'll feel your steering is more responsive and the way the car turns is slightly sharper.

Pair this 2 sama URB. Gooding. But one set of adjustable is too expensive. And it is not transferable to another car even if it is durable enough.

can sell to other members. Grab a good one and let the poison spreads. laugh.gif

This is the thing. By the time I change car, it would be after 7 years. By that time, who will still want it? Who can still use it? Cerato is already using a different base.

as long as the adjustable kilang tak bangkrap, then still have resale value one since it is servicable.

car modification is all about experimenting with trial and error. Experience was gained from this trial and error which at time, could be useful for members driving the same car. Words itself sometimes cannot describe the feeling and effect of the resulting additional modification due to the difference of subjectivity, expectation and perspective. Sometimes, becoming too sure of what you need will ended up with what you don't want the most.

My front windscreen suddenly had a big smooth crack starting from the middle top when I went to my car yesterday morning. Definitely not because of a rock hit...

Anyone has any similar experience before? Can go and make noise with the service center? My car is only 1 month's old!!! sad.gif sad.gif sad.gif

but isn't this a defect?? How can my car nicely parked inside my shaded car porch suddenly get a huge windscreen crack out of nowhere? Some more it's a smooth line instead of a spread out rock hit crack

you can try argue to make a claim, since the car is only a month old and there is no sign of external force that makes it crack, ie: chip.

Stiff ring once installed they definitely cannot see unless they take out the chasis bolts.

I have all the above on the car when I go do my 10k service. I have PB, the K&N, the orsen skid, spring buffer, VS. All on the car. Besides one guy asking his colleague why he needs to open the window of orsen skid to drain the engine oil, they ask nothing about all the mods. They even take out the K&N and check check before putting it in back.

All these are plug and play. Don't like can take it out without needing anyone to know. There is no way that they are recording each mod they found out in the SC. At least I don't see them jotting through out the process.

IIRC, smm will stick a sticker on the chassis frame below after installing stiffring. I didn't take a look at the sticker but it is red in color with a stiff ring logo and some words on it.

speaking of recording, that is what Honda does at their SC. Any foreign item in the engine bay, all progress stopped. The tech head will come with a camera. The photos snapped will be uploaded to Honda (M) database as a solid evidence to void the warranty of the part.

nothing...

Certain track junkies tires crack far worst than that, and those tires still can last them for 3-4 events.

If you want to be sure, balik rub soap water on the crack. If got bubble, means sudah bocor, if no bubble, no bocor.
