I'm not tailo, but just to help out. The car felt like sampan because IMHO is due to the car's lousy dynamic shape. And at that speed probably, a slight uneven road can cause the car to flex ( undergoin torsion, front and rear might move at different rate IMHO) I've previously own a sunny with KYB gas abs on all four mated with Hotbits lowered springs and cost me a whopping Rm2800 (yes, stupid isn't it?) ,i've no other choice. Anyway, it gives the car better stability in hard corner (of coz it's no match to newer car like, even Civic with sport suspension set) but it's no comfort. Later that, the abs starts to fatique because it's still not up to the task to let the car (or driver) drive agressively. Sunny is meant to be a family car, not racing ( no offend here) unless you strip off the whole body and do your own bar chassis then put it back into a sunny. However, the car had been able to make it to 230km/h ONCE and that's ONE TIME. IMHO, i don't think adding all the bars is any useful to prevent it 'float like sampan'
I've also replaced all my grill, headlamps, eye lids, and rearlamp. It cost me around 600, all taiwan's. One piece of headlamp if i'm not mistaken is around RM80. The only problem with taiwan lamp is that it tends to turn into aquarium then again, that's the only choice because there's no stock for genuine part (it's gonna cost a bomb even there is any, like Rm60 for just one corner light)
Ching84: which newer version? Are you still talking bout B11 anyway?
