Pics Of Satisfied Titan's Customers

[coach123]

hey, the car next to the supra is my car! hehehe!

anyway, i'm changing only the dampers, and it's back there for retuning. things i've noticed, and perhaps ninja u would like to help me out:

1) calibrate ur pressure gauge! it was overreading by a lot. last saturday Richard calibrated it back based on my gauge, and another customer's gauge. hope that it doesn't run again.

2) car ride now is harsh...using original springs. handling wise it's ok, but the ride is somehow just harsh when going over yellow speed strips, uneven roads, expansion gaps, etc. richard says he's gonna try another system...hope it works.

3) a bit understeery...rear seems ok.

4) wondering if i should just go for hi-lo for front (back cannot since it's trailing arm), but how much more since it's not all 4?

will be there tomorrow to check out the car. i have faith in Richard...heheh! i think the previous 2 146 boxers all had hi-lo for front...mine is the first using just TiTAN dampers. actually, the 146 suspension is notoriously hard to tune to get rid of the crashing behaviour without compromising the good handling. i hope TiTAN can do a good job in this, and i believe more 146 customers will emerge.

TiTAN is getting there...

aiks!!

darn, didn't notice.. aiks me blur la.. sorry eh!

1) calibrated.
2) bound setting too hard. pls return for re-tune. (sorry ya)
3) could be not enough camber, tyre pressure not right.. tyre problem.. etc.
4) hi-lo kit for fronts.. about another RM700-800 (might be slightly expensive cos it'll be a double job since we've welded the spring seat liaws. But do-able. ;)


thanks for your support!!

normality78~! where are you? heheehe

ninja,

got the car back on saturday...and i have to say i think needs to be done again...sigh...

asked Richard about hi-lo kit, he says the travel of my front strut is too short, so not worth it to do hi-lo kit wor (not too sure what he means exactly). he then described that he has pumped higher pressure nitrogen gas to the front struts. the result is this:

1) much more comfy ride.
2) however, body roll is horrible! aiks! the car now handles like a boat, and it's quite floaty at high speed (140-150kph) unlike before.

how lar now...sigh...i feel "bad" in a way to have to ask Richard to do the dampers so many times...

please advise...maybe i'll call Richard and see if i can book friday with him. i think i'll have to sacrifice comfort liao since the handling now is bordering on dangerous. :(

 

[coach123]

ok ninja,

i may be able to get a pair of used harder front springs for my car...i hope uncle Richard is kind enough to entertain me another time :(

 

[ninja_iga]

coach123,

no problem!
everything's a compromise.. especially when you're using stock springs!
oh well, hope your harder springs allow better compromise!

do come on Fri..
wont be around though, be going to Proton :P
