Hi Bro... notworthy.gif

Yup, Bro...as Bro YAB posted...change rear springs (cheap cheap only...RM40++ per spring))
AND if can, need 2change Front Shocks...Ram600++ for both (not so cheap liao)

AND if wanna follow exact specs...need 2change to 21mm Front Stabiliser Bar...dunno how much? whistling.gif
*
Front stabilizer bar is the same for the BLM/FL and the FLX.

Check up the parts list, Stabilizer Bar Front is PW826070, which is the same from the B-Line BLM all the way to the FLX SE.

next time I go serbis I measure unker style.
take rafia string rub around and unwrap, then use ruler measure string.  icon_rolleyes.gif
most probably by then someone would have already measured it.
*
Wrong way to measure la sleep.gif

When you use the rafia string, you'll be getting the CIRCUMFERENCE, while using the gauge will get you the DIAMETER.

i think 1.6 flx se easily can smoke persona auto when climbing. not sure with manual pe. manual need more skill and change gear faster.

the silverstone m3  keep squeaking when normal cornering. maybe the tyre already reach the limit. i feel saga is too much body roll even with flx suspension setup. maybe its because taller body and higher seating position.
*
Get better tires, but avoid the Michelin PS3. Farking tires can chip going up Genting doh.gif

As for bodyroll, you can solve it by lowering your car + changing to stiffer shocks. Mine now corners very well, but haven't tried Genting yet whistling.gif
