Help me on my Suspension (SX8 City 96)

[mackkcam]

Hi guys,

Cant decide on which brand of shock absorbers should I get, but I have decided the spring Tein High Tech (0.5 -1.5" drop) ayaw ko kasi maxadon lowered, baka sumayad, pero if magbago man, I'll take the Tein S.Tech (1.5++" drop)

but sa Shox ko, im not sure what too choose, the what my supplier can give me for my ride is a set of Paraut or Tokico gas shocks, i dont have my budget for a KYB shock but let me check my wallet later for this.

trip ko kasi i comfortable ride, hindi madaling masira ang shox, medyo konting street performance (hataw sa hi-way), and may audio ako sa rear, medyo mabigat, and medyo mabbgat ang family namin, kaya dpat mahandle nya toh,

pero if wala, anyone could suggest me anything, including the CoilSprings

*SX8 users,

Help me here please???

Just go for the stock shocks and springs. Its the one that will give the most comfort. My city z is all stock.

Paraut has good feedback. I used to hang out with a group of SX8 owners. One of them takes his SX8 "banshee" regularly to the track so he knows his stuff. He did use Parauts before and he had positive feedback; those shocks are very close to stock in terms of tuning with a little firmness dialled in.

Yan ang mahirap sa SX8, kasi technically heavily-modified EF Civic ang SX8 City. The double wishbones got swapped out for long-travel struts all around, and the coil springs are much larger than those of, say, an EG or EK Civic.

Buti naman may TEIN springs na para sa SX8. When I still had mine two years ago, aftermarket springs for it were a b!tch to find...all we could choose from were Espelir, Whiteline, Sheepdog and Merwede.

Try mo magtanong sa Honda Club Philippines. I can't help you very much because I didn't modify my SX8 when I still had it. Wala akong budget for mods noon, I was a student back then.

paraut is about one of the only manufacturers that makes shocks for the city sa pagkakaalam ko.
