Performance: Damper, Shock Absorber, Suspension

[Daniel Lee]

Anyone know what are the available adjustable suspensions in the market that suit RD1 Coupe?
TEIN, Tanabe, GAB, Eibach....???

I'm searching hard for it.
Need to change my rear absorber soon.
Considering adjustable suspension before I opt for the original one.

[Ace]

[Daniel Lee]

Yu,
when are you changing?
Do you have more details or pics on the GAB adjustable suspensions?

 

[Yu911]

[BlackSamurai]

yu, to sample the mounting is it?
can I go "8" with you at weekend?

 

[Ace]

Bs,
"8" ?????

 

[Daniel Lee]

Ace,
the "8" means busybody.

Am I rite, BS?
hahaha...

 

[Daniel Lee]

Yu, what will the price be if there are only two ppl ordering the GAB adjustable suspensions?

 

[Yu911]

Myvi is $1,600
Vios is $1,850
Airtrek is $2,100 & so on.... All this are ready make, but coupe don't have any ready make, so the price is $2,500
I will call him to check for 2 sets for how much
I have read a lot of this Gab product, now the new Gab come with AVCS, auto valve control stability
B'coz he have not done coupe before, no sample to custom make, so I pass him my ori absorbers.
Fully servicable, no need to change new any more, just service, save cost

BS, wana '8 8'? any time, oh, can take pic. too

 

[Ace]

Yu,
maybe you can ask the shop to produce some certain qty so that all coupe can have their chance to change mah..

BS,
remember to take lots of pictures. :)

 

[BlackSamurai]

Yu, can give me a call or sms when you go there? I'll join if time allow.

Ace, later shop owner thought I'm business spy from competitor. LOL

 

[Daniel Lee]

Yu,
Remember to inform me too...
I wanna visit the shop also...

Today I visited my friend's chop shop.
Saw lot's of used suspensions.
But everyone of them doesn't suits Coupe.
Haiz.
I also did enquired about disc brakes.
A pair of two pots calipers plus disc brakes cost around RM1000 including installation.
My friend let me hold on to one of those calipers.
The caliper is damn heavy.

 

[Yu911]

Never buy a used absorbers, coz got life spend.

 

[Ace]

BS,
just tell them its for the benefit of both party loh. Once got pictures, who knows that every member can buy from his shop. hehe

I'm going to put my car at the RsOne for few days. They gonna rebuild my suspension with GAB servicable suspension. Hopefully it'll last longer than the ori suspension. I'm going there this coming Thursday morning.

 

[Daniel Lee]

Charles,
will it be adjustable?

 

[limch1]

Nope, mine will not be adjustable. But the shop are capable of custom made the adjustable for you.

Really very hard to find the shocks absorber for Hyundai. Muahahahaha. Another option is koni shocks, but you'll need them to import it for you, probably take 2 weeks to 1 month.
