Message: <blockquote data-quote="defcon1" data-source="post: 1367891" data-attributes="member: 30064">Richard from Titan offered 2 alternatives. Both which are viable.a) Cut your existing stock springs. Unlike the casual "Ah Beng" mechanic, Richard can cut your springs and flatten out the ends again so that they sit properly. This will lower the car marginally, as well as stiffen up the suspension. You might want to give this a try first...for the front of the car.b) DEFINITELY go for the Titans. RM 2,800 for a set is what he quoted me. An option would be to invest in fronts only which would be at RM 1,400 a pair. Lower the front slightly and use spring rates of about 6kg/mm. The front of the car is where our suspensions are failing. The rears are ok. You could install Titan fronts and cut the rears slightly. Since the Titans are adjustable, there will be no problem balancing out the car.Konis, Teins or any kind of sports or semi-sports springs are built to match a minimum spring rate of about 6-8kg/mm. Considering our stock springs are only about 5+ kg/mm, they are completely mis-matched with sports absorbers.How "comfortable" the ride not only depends on how stiff or soft the suspension. The shocks and springs must be properly matched, as they both perform different functions - the springs carry the weight of the car, and the shocks damp the...er...shocks... <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1425" alt=":smile:" title="Smile    :smile:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":smile:" /> If your springs are too soft, they give way too fast for the shock to react...hence, the car would tend to jolt as the shocks resist the rate of compression. If the shocks are too soft, then they don't damp enough and the car would tend to bounce.So, our stock springs, unless shortened properly, would never be properly matched with even the minimum sports shock. Likewise, the stock shock would never match sports springs.IMHO your best bet would still be Titan.</blockquote>
