my car? none other than the 'world famous' proton!! cant afford anything else. i ended up getting eibach springs along with the 'local made' GAB. combo was alright, but still a little 'bouncy' on highways. i've sold the car since mid of last year.

altho, i've used H&R springs with tokico absorbers before (on my civic) and the combo was superb. slightly on the hard side, but then again, roads in the US are lots better than msia, so it was ok ;)
trancebum...honestly...i dont trust the local GAB...too many bad feedbacks...leaking...too bouncy...hehe

but yes, the tokico its superb....have to forgo some comforts if u wan performance...:evil:

about the local 'GAB', it was a 'can-do' option as compared to koni, tien, etc. it lasted me for >8months with no problems. but then again, i dont go wacking corners like i used to (like with my civic...HAHAHAH). it was ok for the most part. but yes i do agree with you about the feedback about the absorbers. if you check GAB's japan website, they dont really supply any abs for mitsu's (maybe 1 or 2 models only, like the EVO).

i loved my H&R and tokico combo.....and i miss it :(

anyway....happy modding!!

hi to all,
i just got my Wira aeroback installed Tein S.TEC lower springs with GAB SA shocks (all are new unit). However, after installation, i found out my car's rear is higher than front (the car head is facing floor).

The difference is not very severe but can be seen quite easily on flat ground. Now my front wheel arc can put in 2 fingers, but rear can put in 4 fingers :banghead: the difference is about 3 cm.

So is this normal?? will it back to front-rear same height later?? or...
