wira 1.5GL and 1.5GLi front suspension

[Kyusuke_FD3S]

hi every sifu,

i want to ask, is there a difference between wira 1.5GL and 1.5GLi front suspension?

i own a 1.5GL where my bro own a 1.5GLi

i saw my bro front is higher than mine...
for example, for his car, i can put 4 fingers in the spacing between the tyre to the chassis. where mine only can fit 3 fingers.

but i notice some 1.5GL front, some same as mine, some the high rate is like 1.5GLi

what they change ? spring ? or absorber ? or add on rubber (but i dont prefer to add on rubber)

and i feel 1.5GLi takes corner, the body roll is slightly better than my 1.5GL... is it what they say 1.5GLi got lotus tuning is true ?

thanks.

both same, your might have sag over the years.....or maybe both of u using difference spring rate.
wira, satria, putra all same front suspension.

yeah...probably due to sagged spring for older car...

like my car 1.6 suppposed to be stiffer...but my frens 1.3 absorber was stiffer than mine... (both stock car) but my car much older than him.....

The only exception to this "all Wira are the same" rule is the Wira Special Edition. The front springs are bigger and shorter than the 1.6/1.8 (even tho it's a 1.5) and the spring holder cup for the suspension is slightly higher on the absorber.

If you can get your hands on the Wira SE spring you can lower your Wira without affecting comfort too much!
