anybody can recommend suspension matching for wira 1.5. i prefer comfort and Slightly stiffer than original.
 
cut yr spring one round...it will be a little lowered , a bit more stiffer than original & comfortable at the same time without any bounciness...
 
do not cut ur springs at all cost...

if u want comfort, oem shocks are vr close to comfort... most aftermarket suspension are meant for performance...
mayb u can try monroe reflex... have good reviews on their comfort side...
 
dun buy monreo sensatrack, it will get soft very fast in around half a year, because the so call sensa-track on it's design will wear out the absorber piston very fast.
 
agree with u bro macksorum...

waja front n rear abs is more comfortable than stock 1.5....but use back ur stock spring or with 1.8 spring...got comfort a lil bit...

good luck bro...
 
slightly stiffer.. than just get a branded sport spring.. Eibach will do.. For more performance just visit the chop shop n get used GTi shocks or Lancer Evo 1-3 Shocks for ur wira
 
but i hear ppl say can pump oil into absorber to make the ride stiffer now my wise setteing sucks la ...... damn bouncy ..... ok ah ?
 
i got evo2 rear abs...in good condition no leak...pm me for best price..

tq
 
yes.. if the shocks isnt leaking n still good condition... u can only do it once..

After trying on some customer's cars, we received feedback that it works well on wira rear suspension with changing about 10~15 of it's oil to GD140(gear oil) and with 7~9 bars of nitrogen injected. it didn't work well on front suspension due to the car's engine weight, it get soft when ever you travel long distance.

Hai Bro.. perhap u can try this setup:
Front - use stock gen2 or waja KYB absorber and match with WiSE stock spring. Very comfort and stiff than stock 1.5 setup. (top spring mounter have to switch to 1.6)
Rear - use stock Waja absorber with your 1.5 stock spring. Add 1.5" rubber bush if u wanna up a bit at rear. im using this setup right now. its recommended for upgrading your ride comfort and budget for your pocket too.

just my one cent opinion

does wise stock sring same with 1.6 spring? what else do i need to change use sport 1.6/ wise spring on my 1.5wira sedan.... planning to change my spring / suspension... currently using apm sport spring.... it's sucks... after some time my car gets lower!:emoticon_U:

It not same but Wise stock spring can be fit onto 1.6 absorber. Wise a bit shorter compare 1.6 stock spring. Wise spring consider "sport spring" default from factory.. and further more it comfort than normal aftermarket sport spring. it becouse 1.5 engine lighter than 1.6 engine so u need to use wise spring not 1.6 stock spring.. otherwise your car become rally car.. ha ha.. just change top spring mounter to 1.6 than it ready to install.

what about the abs do it need to be change also after change to wise spring and mounter? still can use the old 1.5 sedan abs?
 
>macksorum---- my current setting wira 1.5 sedan abs, sport spring...planning to upgrade to wise spring (4pcs). For the rear abs still can used back with wise spring, is this correct?

so thing that need to change
1) top mounting to 1.6 (front only)
2) abs 1.6 (front only)
3) wise spring (4pcs)
what the estimated cost will be?

bro.. just find the front wise spring only. i think wise rear spring are same with stock 1.5.spring. For rear, yes.. you can use back your stock 1.5 absorber but soft a bit couse it oil filled. Use waja or wira 1.6 gas filled much better couse it more stable
so thing that need to change is
1) top mounting to 1.6 (front only) = RM40 a pair from kedai potong
2) abs wira 1.6 (more better ask for gen2 abs) (front only) = RM280 a pair for new KYB (not sure)
3) wise spring (4pcs) = RM 80 ( try ask other zth forummer)
4. rear waja gas filled new KYB absorber = RM120 a pair (not sure) or use back your old absorber, and labour plus wheels allignment about RM100
try asking few shop first before buy then you can get the cheaper la.. ha ha

AFTER MY 1ST SURVEY
1) top mounting to 1.6 (front only) = not yet
2) abs wira 1.6 (more better ask for gen2 abs) (front only) = RM140 gas 1 pair kayaba (recon 6 month warranty)
3) wise spring (4pcs) = RM 170 new
 
am using GAB abs n spring (front n rear), still comfort n stiffer than OEM,
not too bouncy unless CB road is full of pot holes,
just my 2 cents
 
bro im using a wira 1.6 but engin upgrade to 1.8 SOHC, all suspension members changed already to ori 1.6.....but the suspension is very bouncy on rough roads and even on highways ....can ur setup work for my car...ur help is much appreciated bro
