Mine doesn't screech, but it produces a loud low frequency noise + vibration when it's cold and about to stop. Totally silent with no vibration when it's warmed up.

My right absorber mounting mati liao. No wonder these days the kok sound from the pedal area is appearing through the steering as well. I'm planning to change the front springs to something stiffer since the absorbers will have to be taken out.

I recall someone in the Persona thread saying that he used standard Satria Neo CPS springs which are stiffer and compatible with the Persona. Does anyone know anything about this?

Over bumps, when driving up/down car park ramps with "arrows". Previously the kok sound would appear over sudden bumps or when turning, but now even on a straight line the sound is there along with the vibration.

Anyone changed to Evo 6 brake master pump for their Persona? Based on the photos on mudah it looks like it can fit but the strut bar will have to be removed everytime to add brake fluid and etc.

i thought pump is the black thing behind the metal + brake fluid container which is the servo?

Did you change to evo 6 brake servo? I'm afraid that it might be too strong.

Nevermind I got it wrong. Brake servo + master cylinder

Not sure..

Mine is B-Line Persona, so have to change cause braking power is quite bad. It's even leaking now.

Your ABS still working? Evo 5 braking power very good? I will probably have to re-learn my braking pattern since I'm used to pressing the pedal deep for stopping fast .

I see an offer of RM600 for the Persona H-Line disc braking system (arms and all), but I'm budgeting for brake servo, shock absorbers and a new head unit right now . I might go for the rear disc system if audio system upgrade doesn't work out, but then I want to include new disc rotors, pads, and wheel bearings as well so it might not be feasible.

I see. I wish mine is high-line in the first place so I don't have to deal with the stupid rear drum brakes. . Also won't need to deal with the silly rear seats and their ridiculous headrest.

Looks like the RM600 offer for the Persona rear arms + complete brake system and installation is gone . The rest on Mudah look quite rusty and old, and are quite similarly priced. Does anyone have any recommendations for good half cut shops around Selangor? I think I'll spend some time sourcing for the rear disc brake parts myself to save more.

Currently eyeing the Sapura Pro Ride Sport Absorber + Pro Ride Sport Spring / R3 spring set right now. Does anyone have any experience with this particular set-up?

How much did it cost him?

I used some Insulflex on my boot mainly for aesthetic purposes. Doesn't do any difference to how to boot sounds when it closes. I didn't put a big layer over the boot, just cut and stuffed it between the gaps of the boot.

Bought a full set of Sapura Pro Ride Sport Absorbers + Springs, got the Evo 6 brake servo as well as new Proton absorber mountings. Can't get them installed today though cause Zordaq is fully booked.

Changed to the Sapura Pro Ride shock absorbers today.

Bad news so far: the front left is higher than the right by almost 1 finger. The car is also much lower at the front than expected, with about ~2 finger and <1 finger gap for the front left and right respectively. No proper measurement cause I didn't bother looking for a tool to measure.

Good news: The ride is still pretty damn comfortable. Cornering is... slightly better now. The set is definitely not very stiff compared to the OEM shocks and springs. I don't know what percentage to give for the improvement, but the car stays flat enough to my liking during corners for now. If my memory serves me right, it's kinda Suprima-like now in terms of cornering stiffness.

Still waiting for the day to get the Evo 6 brake servo installed. I don't really feel that excited anymore about it though cause the people at the workshop have been talking about how some tried to use Evo 6 on their cars and after installation and all, it doesn't work. "The brake cannot be pressed", or so they say.

My feelings so far: Half regretting the purchase now as going for IMP "Comfort" Absorbers + my original springs may have been a better combination. The seller and Zordaq told me to give it a few days first to see if the car eventually goes to the same height for the front. I'm hoping it does cause I'm not really interested in spending my time waiting for the shocks / springs to be replaced.

I'll take a proper measurement when I have time. 😁😁😁😁 Were you there around 1pm?

I see. Yeah they don't really have enough people. I would suggest that you call Zaki to verify it the noise is a problem or not. I know mine didn't have any weird noise at all after the change. It was even done by a foreman that is the least experienced among them.

Less sound even when cold?

Nope. Mine has a low frequency noise and vibration when cold. The foreman of zordaq removed my brake insulation layer yesterday and now it sounds less solid. Kinda regret asking them to open the brakes cause I just wanted then to re adjust the insulation which wasn't seated properly.

Between the pad and the caliper. Mine is the Bendix MKT.

. Supposed to ma, since they are the one who installed the kit for you.

Evo 6 servo on the left versus original Plotong servo for B Line.
