Hi guys. I'm replacing my Proton Preve CFE 2012 with the Vios E (8k discount + 4.1k accessories) and booking has been made today 😁. I'd choose reliability over anything else. My first and last Proton.

Tbh, NCP150's shocks are prone to faults by default. The spring is just too soft and there's a lot of play involved, especially for the rear shocks.
There is one year warranty on these.
Around 400-500 depending on location. I didn't get it because nobody is a reseller here. It is my 2nd choice tbh.
If not mistaken, there is only one OBD slot so you can't plug in more than one device. If you decided to have a temp. meter or some sort, then the auto flip will have to forgo.

I've got Ftuned comfort lowering spring for 400 at an authorised dealer in Shah alam. 80 bucks for installation. So far I'm quite happy with it.

1. Ftuned CLS spring

3. Advanti DST S1 with continental CC6 195/55R15, I wanted UC6 but no stock damn (traded my original rim&tire clocked 8500km for 900 bucks)

Well I would say with all these upgrades that I've put into my car, the stability has improved by a margin, but still does not meet my expectations.

Because I had a Preve CFE 😅

Can't beat Preve, Suprima, or even Persona that's for sure. The multi-link rear suspension is one of the reasons why these Proton models are known for good handling even without mods.

Also, the front struts bar comes as a standard for almost all of their cars. Talk about $ savings!

Looks like your mods are similar to mine just that I kept my thicc CC5s.
It's comfy but not the best in wet nor traction. Squeaky at best. What's the price for UC6 and CC6?

Hopefully a full load at the back will not bottom out like the original spring did.
Btw, the rear bar is the solid or hollow one? That upgrade will be one of my next ones.

It squats lower without being too much. Just right.

Yes indeed, preve CFE comes with a front strut bar and rear stabilizer bar as standard, hence no mod was needed and the handling was already sweet as. I kinda miss the handling but it's just not worth it with the number of quality issues that the car had, as I wanted a car with peace of mind.

I've gotten cc6 for 148 @ Jooi Seng. Uc6 is 160.

Not sure if the bar is hollow or solid though 😅

Hi all I'd like to trade my black grille for chrome grille, for those who wants their car to look more sporty aesthetically.

December 2017 car with coating from day 1.

Pm me if you're interested.
