Top Perfect (or know as HWL) contact:
019-6682187 (Wong)

I don't know their address (eventhough i have been there many times) but this is what i got from the Google search engine:

They have a machine to test the damping rate of your abs therefore can tune it to the spec that you require.

They have different grade of materials (valve, oil seal, shaft etc) for different budget/market. If you are looking for something good and long lasting please ask for "export quality".

How much (roughly) it will cost?
PRS seri kembangan quote me RM500 per pair to service soft/hard and make it serviceable. It also cost same price when my bother same type of absorber for his honda

 

[pcmoddingmy]

Kimi, I believe your soft/hard absorber is using weld to secure the oil seal, which is why they have to fabricate a top cap onto the absorber inserts (cartridge) so that they can replace the oil seal and screw the cap back into place. IMO, i don't think its reasonable to repair a soft/hard absorber coz for the total cost, you can get another set of absorbers with some spare cash as well.
Usually this method is recommended for coilover setup. Just my 2cents....

 

[me2kimi]

Prem, since I'm already use coilover at rear side, so i decide to match it with the soft/hard absorber.
Pity to it, just lying around at my backyard (before someone steal it).

 

[levin818]

Few years back, I paid RM500 to service my rear GAB abs (soft/hard) with export quality materials.
As what i understand, if you want something close to TRD spec, they can tune it for you. This is what other abs service provider can't do it.

Bro thank you... Although not fixing anything, these are one of the post I really appreciate... Because we are curious and yet not all have the guts, time and used abs to do this.

If you send it to Top Perfect @ Sg Buluh, they can make it serviceable.

Non-serviceable can convert to serviceable??? Any contact on where can this be done in kk? I always wanted serviceable ones but cannot afford adjustables at the moment
