Just got all the struts installed today :D
Tried doing some cornering and the handling is 100% better than before. :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
For $350.00 it is a real bargain. Thanks danny (a.k.a zimp13).
I would recommend this to anyone, it is well worth it.
$350 for how many?

These in my car.... :D
mine is the same
can confirm that this does handle very well!

Bloody crazy ass driver :D
THis will be a nice addon to my goal for making my Jazz handle like a go-kart. The only thing I wish we had, was a front frame-brace.

who do i talk to about it, any idea??
cheers
:D i know this is out of topic, but have anyone here tried those 'foam-stiffening' for the chassis?
basically what it does it you inject a certain kinda foam into the A & B pillars as well as the door sills on the bottom...the foam expands and hardens almost rock hard and its supposed to stiffen the chassis while reducing road noise & vibrations into the cabin.
apparently its used by a few car manufacturers in their luxury models and also some car tuners used it for their race cars.
that's what i mean:thumbsup:Quote:

Yup, have heard of this chemical. Haven't got a chance to try it out yet though.. :o HMmm...Quote:

Hehe.. I'm actually very interested in experimenting with such a product..
Next question in mind, is where, and how do I get it?? :(
Just gotta know that Xforce struts not available in Australia no more... only wat left in the country..... what a waste
why is that?Quote:

Not enuf sales.... as usual... hehehe.... no one got the money here.... so they gonna scrap the product in Australia.... from wat i know only 2 brand new sets left, no more..... :DQuote:

the shop's in KL, somewhere near the Vistana Hotel. i dont know why he didnt wanna sell to me, but he said that he orders it from USA or something. i actually think it will work in a way coz filling up the hollow pillars and door sills should be able to cut down some road noise and vibrations...should make for a more pleasent ride and might improve the stereo sound quality....Quote:

zimp, still, u won't sell struts separately?
room bar and the boot bar looks too racy whoever comes in u know
or if anyone wants these two bars, pls make a sound
all struts sold anyway.. no more.....Quote:
