Titan is only a coading right? Not the absorbers name? Can tell us more about ur's? any pic? price? & so on

Hi Yu,

Titan is a Malaysia Boleh brand of shock absorbers and springs.
Although Malaysian, but they are pretty darn good.

My set is the full coilover set. The height is adjustable, but the damping if you want it harder then you'd have to change the springs to one of a different spring rate (ie: harder or softer)

What makes them good is their after sales service. Free tuning and servicing of the shocks, if leak they will replace immediately. If got sound then they will add those rubber stops that will eliminate the squeaking.

Not happy with your ride at all? and you can just keep going back there to have it tuned until you happy. ie: adjust your camber, toe, spring rate, ride height. Adjust until you happy.

The design of the shocks is also worth a mention. Monotube design or something like that which I understand is more durable.

Cow, u r using Titan absobers for coupe? How much for a full set for coupe?
I was thinking Titan is a coading for absober.......

My work shop friend told me not to buy GAB Malaysia, many problems.

I think our coupe member also change to GAB before & problem too, can tell us more about ur problem?

As I know GAB Malaysia is totaly not the same as GAB Japan, GAB Japan has closed down, now GAB Malaysia is using GAB Japan name for it & telling me is the same product as GAB Japan (Pandai tipu me)
