u can fit coilover from first gen proton satria/compact or any from evo1,2,3 without much problem....


just the rear ride height need a bit of adjustment via the coilover....

because satria neo rear strut is longer than those satria/evo for about 1-2inch which u will be able to compensate with the adjustment from coilover unit....


on the side note....if u want to retain some degree of road comfort...opt for 5kg/mm front spring and 3kg/mm rear spring... (default most coilover spring would be 6kg/mm front+4kg/mm rear and higher up to 8kg/mm front+6kg/mm rear which is suited more for dedicated trackday/autoX users)

Okay so if it fit those to the rear of the neo the rear ride height would be crazy low?

Okay will having evo ones mean I can't go as low or as high?

u can go lower or exactly similar to stock ride height...



but if u want higher/lift kit/rally spec suspension, then u should look for proper rally/offroad suspension... :driver:

Also do you know if there are any camber kits for the rear wheels available on the satria neo?

well..locally we able to get our hands on this kind of camber kit arm... (blue D2 brand)



but may not be available to you.....i stumbled upon Honda FD2R rear camber kit which looks too similar to the proton neo... maybe...u can check with your local supplier for comparison/measurement

Most shops didn't know how to fix it except for a welder who suggested to cover the hole by riveting a piece of aluminium sheet and knocking it to shape. Indeed it was a good job! After repainting, it looked like nothing has ever happened!

Just wondering if you guys have tried other...
