Hi Joey, I have a Kia Cerato V2 (2008) and a friend of my would like to give away his car's suspension. His driving a VW Jetta Sports 2010. Can his original car's suspension be used in my Kia Cerato? My apologies..only know how to drive and not the car mechanics. Any advise out there? Thanks

Cannot....
You can take the risk and try, you pay the workshop labour to try fitting... if cannot then the money gone...
What the reason for using stock jetta suspension?
If you are thinking of absorber, sorry VW different setup.

Hi Mr Joey
I understand that Harmony Motors has parts for KYB suspension. May i enquire the following:
1. Is KYB shock absorbers suitable for Picanto and what model is good? Do you have a catalog? 2. Does it comes with springs or coilovers? (KYB's spring/coilovers?) 3. How much is labour if i supply the parts? 4. How much is parts and labour (if i choose to buy from HM)? 5. How can i tell if my suspension is weak? Many times i went over the humps, it felt very bouncey and sounds can be heard from my left rear wheel area suspensions. Does that means the suspension is weak already? My car is on stock suspension. 6. Is it true that i need to come back to workshop for height adjustments hence not advisable to do suspensions in JB?
Thanks for taking time to read my question!

I shall answer as follows:

KYB do have a model for Picanto but have to check on the availability of the stock.
2. Does it comes with springs or coilovers? (KYB's spring/coilovers?)
KYB is normal streets shock, that means a normal replacement for original shocks. Not performance. Only Shocks no Spring. Therefore not adjustable.
3. How much is labour if i supply the parts?
Labour is $50/pc if you supply parts.
4. How much is parts and labour (if i choose to buy from HM)?
I have to check on the price if you want us to supply. You can call me directly and I will quote you. 96369151
5. How can i tell if my suspension is weak? Many times i went over the humps, it felt very bouncey and sounds can be heard from my left rear wheel area suspensions. Does that means the suspension is weak already? My car is on stock suspension.
Experience can tell. Or we can do physical inspection for leaks or hand compress to determine the condition.
6. Is it true that i need to come back to workshop for height adjustments hence not advisable to do suspensions in JB?
Normal shock no adjustment possible.
Thanks
