    The chances that you'll need to replace the springs are lower than the chances that you'll need to replace the shocks. Change the shocks. If the ride improves, good. If it doesn't, change the springs, as well.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    +1 to Niky, shocks first before springs. unless springs show signs of deterioration like rust and cracks, replace them simultaneously with shocks to save on labor. naputulan na kasi ako ng front spring before.

    Konting info lang from experience,

    Nagpalit ako recently ng mga dampers ko for crv 2002 model, sabi ng mga shop wala daw kayaba na available para sa modelo ng auto ko, so I had to settle for another brand. Gustuhin ko man bumili ng original e sobrang mahal, 7500 yung sa harap per piece at 5500 yung sa likod. So sinubukan ko nalang yung inalok nilang brand, Ginza sa harap. Kaso out of stock yung pang likod, kaya ang binigay sakin e Paraut na brand. Sinubukan ko na rin since no choice, kulang ang budget ko.

    Yung Ginza na brand, parang sister company ng Monroe. Yung Paraut naman, parang gumagawa ata ng mga OEM parts for Subaru. Yung GInza na nabili ko ay ok naman so far, pero syempre iba parin ang ride ng original. Parang pakiramdam ko di tatagal tong Ginza ng more than one year. Pero yung Paraut, NIGHTMARE! After 2 weeks palang, may langitngit na. And worse, ayaw pa palitan nung shop na pinagbilhan ko, kasi daw ganun talaga ang replacement part. Mga ulol talaga, san kayo nakakita ng damper na walang isang buwan e maingay na? Dapat daw one week palang binalik ko na. Anyway, para wag na kayo mabiktima tulad ko, Please DO NOT BUY FROM NISPARTS banawe, yung nasa kanto ng quezon ave at banawe, katabi ng union bank. Sobrang poor customer service. Nagbebenta sila ng nissan and honda parts.

    My suggestion: mag KYB nalang kayo or some other brand na kilala, and make sure may warranty sila. Wag nyo na tipirin dahil sasakit lang ulo nyo gaya ko. AND AGAIN, DO NOT BUY FROM SHOPS LIKE NISPARTS NA WALANG WARRANTY kahit na obvious naman na defective ang binigay nilang part.

    Sorry to hear your story. =(

    Sa isang thread Ginza rin recommended:

    Ginza ba pinalagay mo on fronts and rears? How's the ride so far after a few months? Matagtag pa rin ba?

    And san ka nagpakabit?

    Thanks in advance, Sir!
    I'll appreciate any inputs.

    Try Massive along Jose Abad Santos near Hundai Car Dealer
    They are more cheaper regarding KAYABA SHOCKS . They are the supplier of KYB shocks in Blumentrtt and BANAWE auto supply. It is also across WILSON AND JACKSON Auto repair shop.

    I called massiveParts and was told that the KYB shocks for CRV is still under development. Probably next year pa raw magkakaron if ever. =(
