In ICT now and got this car siao kaki from the automotive industry poisoning me everyday. Lol I feel like a complete noob next to him so took the opportunity to ask him many things Told me to change SSBH and coilover for safety. Said BC coilover is value for monies cos can set everything manually. Only downside is comfort but nothing an experienced WS can't tune. He said a lOt of other technical things but I catch no ball. Lol Any recommendation where I can find these stuff?

Erm, SSBH also need to ensure installer do a good job....
Coilover safety??? Kup corner high speed more safer is it? hmmm.....
Anyway, Fong Kim and Racetech have BC coilover. Not sure suitable for Rio or not.
Coilover is adjustable but comfort coilover is a whole world of difference from lowering or stock spring.

Agree with Mindbox that..how many times u can do it on sg roads.. btw, for coilover, you also need to buy and install camber bolts to prevent uneven tire wear, use low profile tire for better results....additional $$ spend also... the most important thing is, can your family members or GF like to sit in car with coilover.... Hi friends, any recommendation for reliable installer for ssbh for rio? Find pedal too spongy leh. Or anyone selling bbk hurhur change brake pad can liao....erm BBK for Rio overkill le.... 15" rims cannot clear le... installing SSBH will not feel much effect in normal braking effect...only maybe e brake...

U knw wat.. Lately i use iridium plugs n use tis expensive basso engine oil..its another new experience for me.
Not sure saying tat coilcover not good.. If u those hardcore drivers who drive w high speed... Cornering w speed..by all means try it. But if u r those normal friendly drivers on e rd then its kinda waste e investment.
I skip many mods in my avante. I jus did QF, good plugs, good oil, good brake pads... N good average ice.. I really enjoyed as i use them everyday...
