Facelifted Sylphy 1.5..

[Nhrisuzu]

bro care to share where u installed the spring stiffeners? They are installed "sandwiched" in-between the spring right? I just kenna undercarriage today with full load going over a hump wondering if the stiffeners can help???

 

 

it is sandwiched between the spring..

 

hmmm.. i would say it can help to reduce bottoming out.. but if u sit full load until cannot full.. like maybe 5 pax behind? that one u pull coilover then got use liao..

My full load today is my parents & 2 nieces + 1 more relative uncle i think the rear springs are too soft since i saw the hump not really high type normally on weekends my rear passengers are my 2 niece & parents.

maybe the relative uncle was the limit liao.. total 5pax at back leh.. i think u can try putting the buffer la, no harm though.. it is pretty good if ur rear just sit like 2 adults..

if u carry a heavy load like this most of the time, its best to change to stiffer gas shocks rather than stock oil shocks

very nice car

Heard the stock tyre Yokohama Aspec is noisy and not really have good grip in wet road. Any idea what is the best tyre for Sylphy 1.5 in terms of performance, safety and better grip in wet condition?

 

Thanks

Does the car floats at this speed??

[Darthkk]

Anyway you drove up Genting? any problem with the power when climbing the hill?
