Myvi 1.5 se with original suspension stiff ride

HLSH have body shift, and can compress the springs other than dampening rate

I think FTuned HL units have bodyshift too.

Means F Tuned makes different models to suit their customers. Others I have seen do not have body shift and are much cheaper....

So can somebody sponsor me RM3.45k? I'm really eager to see how Ftuned in a myvi performs

RM350 full set, that's a steal! :proud:

Indeed. I can talk about HLSH till the cows come home, but no money so I just buy cheap shit instead. If it sucks I can say its cheap mah. lol. OEM spec, can't suck that bad, the original KYB also damn bumpy already.

ahhh...RM3450. Thanks for the correction.

Which one did you ordered? The yellow one?

OEM black standard ones. Yellow one is short stroke, which lowers the car, not suitable for me since I want my car at stock ride height. #parkingramprallyhero

I may be wrong but whereas HL vs HLSB is concerned, isn't it basically the same coilover; albeit having an additional valve to do minor adjustment of the rebound rate?

How often does one adjust the Soft/Hard knob settings? I think so far, I adjusted twice only. After getting used to driving around with hard settings, when I set to soft, it feels wobbly.

Going on this assumption, if we get the spring rates correct for our required needs, opting for the cheaper HL isnt that much of a compromise

Problem is, "correct for our required need" is subjective. The pre-valved one was not done in your preference. If just so happen you're happy with it, sure, that's great. Which is why HLSH is offered, to adjust and match your tires & your buttock. If you find the sweet spot, then yes, like you said, you won't adjust it thereafter unless going to the track.

I used to think like you too, but if the HL set is not "right" out of the box, re-valving them cost quite a significant amount too.

good ma, can experiment and review with available products while saving the wallet. like i dreamed to the moon and back about changing to HLSH coilovers, but no money so can only think about servicing nia

haha, i didn't dream le, back then only one available as GAB SS... I gotten it. In less than a week I gotten rid of it. Way too low even at the highest setting (for me).

Because the ground clearance didn't meet my need i got rid of it. I didn't even bother to play with the S/H.

Sadly, no alternatives back then. TEIN & CUSCO was almost double in price.

HLSH? What's your feedback on it?

 

[sweelt]

yes, hlsh and body shift. Front inverted, rear monotube.
comfort for a coilover. From my view, feel planted on the road. Even i test whack corner on malaysia uneven road, i don feel a guessing game how the steering going to response. + ps3 tyre also lah.

Before that i run with HWL st-1 (orange spring) hlsh body shift. I should have test other spring rate for it !! but it din cross my mind before join zth.
Should be cheaper alternative. Anyway i sold it.

i cannot compare Ftuned with HWL st-1. Not fair. :hmmmm:
