ang tagal kong nag-back read, sinimulan ko lang basahin yung mga post from january to present. isang lingo ko rin bago natapos pero ok lang marami akong napulot na tips. by the way isa pang tanong, bakit kaya parang hindi napapag-usapan yung swift spring? sa pagbabasa ko kasi sa fitfreak eto yung recommended nila usually nila dahil eto yung closest comfort sa stock and at the same time lowered na rin. meron bang dealer nito dito? thanks ulit.
Mga pre, sino sa inyo 'yung out of warranty na? 2nd gen kasi 'yung akin e kakatapos lang ng warranty kaya naghahanap nako ng talyer or big shop na ok. Saan kayo nagpapagawa? Salamats!
i was looking for swift springs before. Actually maganda nga feedback niya and mostly recommended siya sa kabilang forum. Though hindi siya available locally. Need mo ipaship from other countries or ipauwi mo if ever may uuwi na kapamilya. hehe!
Also it only drops 1". If ever yun lang talaga habol mo na drop then okay siya. If you want more, there are other alternatives like Espelir, Maxspeed, Eibach, Tein etc. etc... Even coilovers![]()
junji, the reason why mahal ang coilovers is because it replaces the whole shock assembly and other than that, you can control your ride height and damper, which you cant do in just installing lowering springs... i never thought of spending for coils until i was finished with most of my mods pero after doing so, sinabi ko sa sarili ko that its going to be one of my first mods in my next car... laking difference ng ride with coils, mas solid yung feel lalo na the Jazz seems lanky with its stock height and suspension... come to think of it, 35k ang BC Racing coils (which im using) tapos nasa magkano ang normal price range ng lowering springs, around 13k to 14k on an average? for 1/3 of the price, not bad mag-coils na lang... it wont damage pa your stock shocks
marlowem, 4 years na GE ko and ang nagmamaintain lang nito is most of the time Autoplus or Speedlab... for suspension, usually Bridgestone pero i only brought my car once for suspension adjustment

kung mga 35k nga ang pricing ng BC Colis then mukang mas maganda nga na mag coils na lang, adjustable pa yung height sa gusto mo. Medyo na-descourage lang ako kasi nung minsang mag-search ako, yung price e about 60-65k, ang mahal. Maganda ang feedback sa BC ayon sa fitfreak. Kung sakali, eto ang magiging first mods ko, yung nga lang malamang na after at least 2 years pa due to warranty pero baka gawin ko na rin once makapag 5k pms na ako. Ang tanong ko lang mavo-void na kaya ang warranty once na magpalit na ako ng coil? San ba available ang BC Racing Coils?
Salamat pcuerpo, dami kong natututunan sa 'yo at bayen. First car ko kung sakali to at alam ko di ako magsisisi in terms of forms and ride experience. Ang mga pinagpilian ko just for the info are fiesta, swift, accent hatchback, rio hatchback, yaris at jazz, pero dahil nga sa forms and ride experience of those who have it, jazz ang napili ko plus the inside space na kayang ibigay ng jazz.
price range ng BC Racing Coilovers are around 35-40k depending sa shop. Also don't be mistaken sa FitFreak pag sinabing BC.. Minsan kasi Buddy Club ang ibig sabihin nila doon. Buddy Clubs here are around 50k+
Marami din other options for coilovers if limited budget. One is BC Racing, others are Maxspeed, Dynamics, D2.
Or kung makatyempo ka ng "sure" na maganda na 2nd hand na bigger name brands :D
Mga bossings lalo na po sa mga naka K&N Typhoon, question lang regards sa kanya, di ba siya prone mabasa tulad ng CAI? Planning as my 1st true engine mod and medyo nalalapit na ang tag-ulan kaya lalo napapaisip.
*junji, kakalabas ko palang ng jazz. 1.3 m/t mag 2 weeks palang. Enjoy ko muna stock ride at sayang kasi ang warranty.. :D
Yan din naman ang plano ko for the meantime once makuha ko na unit ko, isang mods lang naman ang gusto ko after siguro maka 1 year at yan ay yung ma-lowered ng konti. As advised ng mga guro dito, mukang mas sulit nga ang BC Racing coilover at malamang na yan ang ipakabit ko once na decided na ko for mods. Eagerly waiting and excited for my vacation para sa release ng unit and almost 2 months pa hihintayin ko.
I'm planning on painting my fog lamp yellow, any suggestions on paint that I can use? I have a pure yellow euroline bulb, but I want the fog lamp lens itself to be painted yellow because I wanted it to look good even on daytime.
^^^If kaya ng budget sir, much better kung film/tint na yellow nalang sir..at least pag nagsawa ka, madaling tangalin and ibalik sa oem...
just my 2 cents...
