Eibach, Tein, GAB or tanabe??? for ultimate comfort
hi all brother here,
my friend and i plan to change our spring to lower spring!
our aim was ultimate comfort like original
i hear Eibach prokit is the best choice is it???
but after i survey few accessories/performance shop
many of them claim that the GAB, tein will also give the comfort feel (but i don't believe)
and i search the tanabe website and found that the tanabe NF-210 (not GF-210) only increase 5% from original spring (and will give ultimate comfort for the ride)
that's my survey
so i need all taiko here to help me to select the spring i need to buy
and somore, i donno where to find the tanabe NF-210 and eibach prokit in JB
any taiko know where to find the tanabe NF-210 and eibach prokit in JB
thanks alot thanks

i feel sad for helping a badguy:regular_smile: ,but here goes.what type of car
ur driving badguy?local or japanese or continental?if ur looking for tanabe,try call
jc racing(amoil).ask for jacky or gio.if u want comfort,i find tein comfort too.
but it's all up to individual.different ppl got different taste.happy hunting.
everyone taste is different ...
as GT_AUTO said, what car u r driving ?
then try find member from zth for a test drive lo....
eibach is ok, but must match with absorber too ...
tanabe also ok, NF stand for Normal Feel, GF for Grip Feel, DF for Dress Feel ...
badguy,u drive myvi n vios?i think go for tein la.tried it both,very smooth n comfy.
somore the price is very reasonable compare to eibach.just my opinion.
Re: Eibach, Tein, GAB or tanabe??? for ultimate comfort
so far for vios i still haven really heard someone really satisfied with their aftermarket spring nor ori spring. the fact of it's less comfort ride is because the due of using they type of spring which had small coil on each side.

Re: Eibach, Tein, GAB or tanabe??? for ultimate comfort
best comfort?ori springs.when ur lowering ur car..u cant look for comfort.u shud be looking for how stiff it is and wats the rate and do u like the handling.all that but comfort.
Re: Eibach, Tein, GAB or tanabe??? for ultimate comfort
Bro, if u have high burget, try to get Eibach. So far i haven't heard any myvi had any complain (including myself) on EIBACH because this spring is not very low and just nice for everything. For Tein, GAB and tanabe in MYVI, those spring are very low spring which u will fell very stiff and not very comfort. You pay for what u get bro. So happy hunting.
p/s:- My Myvi is on Eibach spring with 16' rim and satisfied with it.
Re: Eibach, Tein, GAB or tanabe??? for ultimate comfort
for ur case leh,go for adjustable if u r more into handling rather then comfort.
adjustable can be quite comfort too if u know the spring rate that u want.
sport spring will give u a slight improve in handling but more towards comfort.
sport spring r usually 15-30% stiffer then ori's spring to reduced body roll n
nose dive when braking.
Re: Eibach, Tein, GAB or tanabe??? for ultimate comfort
i think GT auto is re-fearing to those well known sport spring, exp- tein, RSR, TRD so so. local made spring tent to lose their stiffness after a year or so. for the years of playing with suspension on malaysia road, i went back for stiffer absorber (with stronger re-bounce rate and slighty stiffer bounce rate) match with original spring (cut-ed one round to lowered). it give me really good road contact/feel without sacrificing comfort.
