hey guys need some help on finding which is the most suitable aftermarket suspension for our car. suitable in the sense that its comfortable to be used on everyday road. right now i tink mi current suspension is gone. goin on humps is hell and there will be loud knocking sounds even when i approach a hump slowly. its getting harder and very uncomfortable for the passengers and even mi dad complain why the suspension so hard and rough now. need your help on this? should i go for an aftermarkert suspension or will it be veri uncomfortable?

I think is just the absorber spoilt. you can buy those almost brand new one maybe $50 per pcs?

you can try min ghee
http://www.minghee.com/
they are the mitsubishi distributor. if not u can try go down racetech and ask them to replace those 2nd hand but quite new for you..
but after that you have to do alignment. if like that might as well get lowering spring slightly harder than stock but good for cornering :D
Or it'll be good if you can afford Sachs :]

its a shock absorber with a coil spring around it if my knowledge serves me right. they are use to improve handling of the car cause most of the time they are used to lower the cars cg. am i right abt that?
and yes at the same time i do wan to lower mi car and i dun wan lowering springs. wad i wan to noe is if i put this aftermarket coilovers on will it affect the ride comfort. i have never experience a car with an aftermarket coilover
b4 so im not sure how the feeling is like.
Read about about how coilover works and its characteristics, I just gotta let you know it ain't gonna be comfortable and serve the purpose of a Coilover at the same time ;)

but surely there are levels of comfort from the different coilovers right? i mean i know that putting coilovers will never give u very comfortable ride comfort but surely there are some that wont make u go nuts. wad im looking for here is compromise. i wan coilovers to lower the ride and better the handling but at the same time i dont wan something to harsh that my passengers will complain about and then later i have to change back to stock. basically because my current suspension is giving mi probs, i found an excuse to get coilovers but i dont want coilovers that will make mi go nuts, i want something that can do what i mentioned.

Ahh! If you can can compromise with that then hmm.. Check out the individual sets and check their specs like damping and rebound ratio etc:smartass: From there you can tell which will give you what you desire :clap:
