tama po ba sabi ng mga mekaniko na kapag nagpalit ka ng springs ay dapat pati shocks na rin? matagtag na kasi po ang sasakyan ko...'96 honda civic..andaming pinalitan na like stabilizer link, tire rod at mga bushing saka rack end. Kaso matagtag pa rin siya...Nagplaplano na ako palitan yung springs since di pa siya pinapalitan since binili namin back in '96. Yung shocks niya di pa din napapalitan...ano po kaya?

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.

Your suspension won't get any stiffer with old springs. In fact, when the spring has reached the end of its useful life, it tends to sag and ride height would usually become uneven. As long as the ride height is still within specs, there's nothing wrong with the springs.
The dampers on the other hand can either get stiff (lubrication has dried up) or bouncy (leaking oil or gas pressure).
Start with replacing the dampers first since they're due for replacement anyway, and then see if it will make a difference.

June 14th, 2009 04:41 AM #7Konting 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.

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.

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