Coilovers

Just when I thought this thing doesn't exist.

Anyways, I don't have the guts to mess up the stock suspensions of the car yet!

I've had coilovers... they're awesome when you're at speed... nagiging stable bigla yung kotse, kahit maraming imperfection or dips sa kayle. I remember whenever I ran fast through and jumped the southbound way of Guadalupe bridge. unstable sya noong KYB lang shocks ko... pero with coils (and even now with bilstein+H&R) stable ang landing at speed...

Pero I had to give up on coils coz they blew too often. I decided better to go Bilstein HDs instead para long lasting naman.

What do you mean when you say, "they blew too often"?

He means the seals fail often resulting in leaks. Coilovers are rebuildable though.

I've had Bilstein HD on my Ford Focus, not really true on long lasting kasi normal driving lang ako most of the time. Isang beses ko lang na-track yung car ko, pero one of the front shocks, has this "lagatok" when on low speed unstable roads. Pero on highspeed unstable roads, no noise.

Back to the question, yes, coilovers will give you good handling and plus you can adjust the height and the damper settings but you will suffer on the comfort side. Kahit pinaka-soft setting, it is still harsh.

Malala pa, if you have man-boobs, aalog alog talaga lalu pag sa EDSA.
