Performance: Damper, Shock Absorber, Suspension

[Daniel Lee]

Why don't you get adjustable suspension?
If import, will it cost a bomb?
Long time frame won't be quite a problem but the price will.

charles and yu, maybe you 2 can go together?

 

[Daniel Lee]

BS, you don't wanna follow to "8"?
Hahahaha.... just kidding....
I can't follow, need to work on thursday.
Too bad...

koni shocks is around 2.2k, should not be too much price different as compare to the adjustable.

 

[Yu911]

No time to go yet, may be I will 'ula' to go, hehe

 

[BlackSamurai]

so now charles and yu have GAB and KONI in the shopping cart...


daniel, why not?

 

[limch1]

Jst send my car to rebuild the suspension, gonna cost me 1.3k. The shop has HID too, any problem can be replaced anytime. Cost for the HID is about the same too.

This is quite a gambling I would say. What if the shock doesn't fit your taste? too hard or too soft then how? Thousand buck goes down the drain?

 

[limch1]

Yeah, is a gamble game. Unless you are willing to spend more for the adjustable, which may need to spend more but still adjustable. Since the rebuild suspension is servicable, forgotten to ask them if can make it to suit my taste. Currently just ask them to make it similar to the original shocks.

 

[Daniel Lee]

Charles, remember to report to us about the condition of your rebuild suspension when you got it.

It's ur car done? it u go for the adjustable than u can change the spring till u like it, the rebuild is using the OEM spring. $1.3K for rebuild why not go for adjustable? did u ask if 2 coupe change for adjustable is how much?

Heyz, got back my car and it's not bad at all. The ride seems to be much better now, but they only gave me a 6 months warranty.

I am using H&R sport spring, that's why my original suspension wear out after about a year. My ride was super bumpy before I rebuild the suspension. Now feel so much better. Gonna test it more to find out.

His price is about the same for every car, he told me even for the Mitsubishi Airtrek to rebuild the suspension is around 1.3-1.4k. But the original suspension for Airtrek will cost more than 2k. The adjustable should be around 2k range.
