    Back to your problem. The springs are too soft at the back of the AE111 corolla. You can try finding a set of surplus JDM spec springs for the AE111 which would help minimize the amount of drop when people are sitting at the back.

    Sir ghosthunter sorry po sa parang text na message. Thank you po. Lowering Spring po ba or Coilover. Performance po hanap ko.

    So changing the rear shock is the best thing to do.??

    A change of springs will do if you can find JDM spec springs. If not, lowering springs might help. Coil-overs might be a bit hardcore give they do not give a smooth ride on the road.

    Usually no. "Recharged" shocks tend to leak again in a few months of normal use.

    San po ba pwede magpaadjust ng catchplate? as much as possible po kasi stock springs lang po sana ako. But i will replace my stock shocks po. Planning to buy KYB excel g front and rear na. Hindi ko pa din po kasi alam talaga gagawin ko para sabay sabay ko na sya pagawa. Naka 17's po ako series 40. Thanks a lot sa mga magrereply..

    catch plate? eto ba yung pinapatungan ng springs? hindi ba delikado pag pinagalaw yun?

    Since masyado malambot yung OEM springs ng AE111 na nilabas sa Pinas, subukan mo magpalagay ng rubber lifter na ring type (nakapatong sa catchplate ng strut or against the shock mounting). Nakakabili nun sa banawe. Pakabit mo na lang sa suking suspension shop mo. Height will remain the same pero magiging stiff ng konti. Alam ko meron sila sa new denso.

    Wag ka lang maglalagay ng rubber lifter na nakaipit lang in between one of the coils of your rear springs. Di magiging pantay ang spring tension pag ganun ang ginamit mo. At least yung donut type na rubber lifter eh pantay pa rin ang base ng springs mo.


    IMHO, that will be the cheapest alternative to your very soft rear springs. It worked for me (dalawa pinakabit ko each).

    Adjustable Shocks nalang po ang bibilihin ko. Ma adjust ko sya sa desired height na gusto ko.. My problem now is ano po ba mga adjustable shocks na available sa Banawe. Brand New po sana.
