wow! 1.7 to 2k for KW? can buy tein liao loh. haha too bad dun have for bravo

I spoke to the disty for KW. The replacement spring costs around $400 and the coilover around $1.7k. Price quoted is inclusive of GST but without installation and alignment.

So for springs, we have 2 choices now, either H&R or KW.

Oops ! Sorry, how can I forget about Novitec and Eibach ? I heard that they are one and the same. Novitec however drops quite alot, 45mm front I believe ? That's why I am leaning towards KW which is a 30/30 drop.

As it is, the bravo does not have a very high clearance and since I am also considering changing the muffler, I can't afford to lower it too much.

ya, if u intend to change muffler then lowering the ride is a consideration. but if can get the MS design rear bumper then all prob solved.

It depends on the muffler, I don't think with the MS Design rear bumper, you can just change to any muffler as Novitec is actually hanging below the stock bumper. Another option would be to customized the lower bumper.

another option is eibach coilovers..pricing is 2.1k!! too expensive for me man..

aiyoh....never mind lah...pictures cannot tell one.....

I think the question to Alex is whether any issue clearing humps/bumps and going up/down slope/mscp ?

nope...just want to see the difference.....

so far ok le..manage to clear most of the humps. only thing i don't quite like about the springs are the unbalance height

u mean front far far lower?
stock wise...front oledi far lower than rear though....

That's why I am leaning towards the KW springs as it is 30/30 which I think shouldn't have any problem.
