tuning for my kelisa

[Akim]

hi stanley,
In one or two weeks time, ill come to your shop for tuning becoz im free at that time after taking final exam this week and next week. besides that, i would like you to make custom rear spring (new one) either 1.6kg/mm or 2.1/2.0kg/mm (the spring spec is taken from D-sport suspension spec). Can you recommend me the which spring rate becoz im not satisfied with my stock spring because i always carry 3 or 4 passengers beside i want my car lowered.
does the spring has warranty period until when it expired? (i forgot already). quote me the price including installation, please? can you do inspection for absorber too?

BTW, can i tune the front spring setting? the current setting is 3kg/mm and i would like to try 3.5kg/mm.

one question again, if im not satisfied with the new setting, can i change back to the previous setting without changing the new rear spring?

sorry for too many question.

thanks in advance.

hi Akim

wah, so complex! :lol:

okie: i've got a set of rear springs, you can try that wan, RM300, springs + labour.


you can tune the fronts, no prob, but if you wanna change springs... er, need to buy new ones lor.
you sure ar?
have you used up your 'free-tune-up' yet?
if not yet, i'll just charge for the springs, no labour......
(4kg/mm, 3.5kg/mm cannot)

aik, you wanna reverse the (rear) if you're not happy.......?
hm, seriously, can la, but abit more work.. And it'll cost you.. :(

no, it's just not possible (coilovers for the Kelisa's rear)

our Toyota Avanza set is telescopic rear, just like Kelisa, Kancil, Saga etc.

hi,
what is the spring rate, kg/mm of the rear spring? is it new or used?
BTW, i havent use the 'free-tune-up' yet. next visit will be my first tune up.

(4kg/mm, 3.5kg/mm cannot)

you mean that you dont have 3.5kg/mm spring, right?

what is the new front spring price for front adjustable suspension?

thanks. B)

Akim

the rears are about 2+kg/mm if i'm not wrong.
slightly 2nd hand, quite new.

RM300 for front springs.

hi,
im not sure you got my pm but ive checked my sent item folder and there is no mail sent to you.

can you measure again the rear spring rate because i dont want the spring rate more than 2.1kg/mm. too bumpy especially for kelisa. if it is less than 2.1kg/mm but more than 1.6kg/mm, ill accept it. sorry that im being too "cerewet" to you.

here is one way to measure spring rate DIY by me. hope that it works.
(tips to how to measure spring rate)
-put a big tray on a spring.
-measure the initial length of the spring.
-fill in 2 mineral water bottles of 1.5ltr with water until full.
*2 bottles of 1.5ltr bottle full of water = 3kg*
-place both bottles on the tray and measure back the final length of the spring.
-calculate it by 3kg divide with difference of initial length and final length.
spring rate = 3kg/(initial length - final length)
-hehehe

BTW, can i trade-in my current front spring, 3kg/mm with 3.5kg/mm spring rate?

thanks.

akim, what is ur current spring rate ? what is the rate for a stok kelisa/kenari rate ?my rear bumpy too .. cut the stok springs .. dunno what is the rate now.

stanley, im using 3kg for front .. what will happen to my ride if i change to a higher rate (e.g 3.5 or 4 kg) without changing the characteristic of the abs ?

 

[gogsard]

stanley, can you custom spring rates too ??
