hey mike yea i rmember you. just revently theres one of the member with eibach spring changed his stock absorber to GAB sport absorber. result? much more comfortable now. Reason being is that the whole suspension now is working in unison. stock absorber has long stroke meant for longer stock springs. once u've changed to sport springs, the spring rate n length doesn't compliment well with stock abs. I have 1 set of GAB sport absorber brand new if you want. can get cheaper than normal market price. let me know if you're interested.
titanium is the premium range. $$ also but alot of good reviews from the singaporean side.
*
ur GAB sa for front or rear?

the best is shock absorber & spring change it once?

how about the Disc Rotor? mine almost the time to change sweat.gif sweat.gif

QUOTE(fooken @ May 19 2008, 02:04 AM)
yes, eibach spring is called progressive spring. it is almost like stock during normal drive but the spring rate will change accordingly depending on situation. Thats the great thing about eibach compared to other spring which is non-progressive. we call them linear spring. it has fixed spring rate.

GAB sport absorber with AVCS technology. AVCS means that it is compatible with any sport spring to go with. AVCS=Auto Valve Control Stability. Market price for this is about 900+. Vtec one is slightly more expensive. also the design for the front absorber varies with idsi version so get it right from the seller.

GAB more comfortable?

What i meant is the theory behind it. each sets of springs and absorber compliments each other. so when you mess with only one of those then it doesnt compliment each other that well anymore. normally people would just change sport springs. this will shorten the lifespan of the stock absorber as its not utilised well with the sport spring[long stroke/short stroke that i mentioned in the previous post]

So if you just changed to sport spring only, chances are your stock abs will wear off n finally the leaking sign within 2 years.

ic.. which brand/model u using? GAB?

on wheel bhp figure for vtec is 80+, idsi is around 66bhp. power loss is abuot 25% for our city. its minimal due to CVT which minimises the power lose. conventional auto tranny lose as much as up to 40%.

juz attended the Honda Safety Driving Course yesterday (1/6).  Is a very great activity and opportunity for us to learn bout various driving skill and know our car capabilities.  I personally like the ABS training, very cool, the instructors let us feel the experience of ebrake with/without the ABS on dry/wet road condition.  As the result, without the ABS, the car can be out of control and spinned 180 (some model even spin more then that) but if with ABS, the car is under control and wont spin like crazy.  The course combined both theory and practical session and every ppl got the chance to test it out.

Another cool things is apart of it, we also lucky to see our malaysia air force military perform their air fighther training, their flying skill is so cool~ 360 spining, overhead turning, low and slow flying etc. and even got a missle fire training (by using a flare and non-destructive missile)

Last but not least, ofcoz is the test drive session we wait for so long biggrin.gif
There are 4 cars for us the slect for the test drive: The Legend (only 1 in M"sia, RM600k++!!), Type-R, New Stream & New Accord.  Due to times constarint, we only allowed to test drive 1-2 cars that we choose, but since there is some raining during the test drive session and some ppl give up to wait and went back.....so...i'm lucky to got the chance to test drive 3 cars (Legend, Type-R, Accord)!!  Its really a great experience!!!

wow.. so nice ya!! how the feeling ride with the Type-R?? brows.gif brows.gif

yup, its in the close circuit area, but enough already, coz u need to sign an agreement letter stated that if anything happend to the car during the test drive, u need to take the responsibility  sweat.gif  (know what i mean right?  brows.gif )


Added on June 2, 2008, 2:05 pm

Type-R is the best one!!! If got money, sure will go for it (nearly RM200k!! 1 Legend = 3 Type-R)  brows.gif

Manual gear (yeah, my favorite), and the powerful accelerator power (ofcoz, the handling is excellence too!!)

Thumbs up!!! thumbup.gif

so guys, if u got the chance to attend the course, dont miss it!!!  Probably u only got this golden chance to drive it once in your lifetime  (especially The Legend) rclxm9.gif

in fact you do not need to press twice.
- insert your key
- turn to to 'ON'
- press the remote control 'Big button' once. (no siren sound nor signal blinks)
- turn your key to start the car

I am not aware of this until told by another city user. doh.gif

install sound proof damping (4 door) would solve the problem.
