I just installed the V1 set from BC Racing. Briefly drove it around. Front damper currently set at 15notch (exactly middle of the range), Rear damper set to softest. 25mm drop was almost the minimum drop, I tried to retain the ride height, but that's about as good as I can get.
Handling was much improved. Body roll was reduced significantly, body roll still noticeable in the front-end. I will be installing UltraRacing Front strut and all braces this week. No more bottom out at the back even with 150kg payload. It is stiff... like.. very stiff... It probably wouldn't be very comfortable going beyond that stiff.
Will drive it around for a week or so and recheck the settled in height and perform wheel alignment.
At this moment (just newly test drove this set of suspension), if I get to customised my spring rate, I would probably pick something around 3.4kg/mm on the front, and 2kg/mm on the rear.
You have UR-AR19-422 listed for RM450.. where?? this is 116 USD

USD116 is almost RM450 bro... That quotation was direct from UR factory, cash and carry.

I wish I could.. The sad part is shipping to the states cost a bomb from Malaysia! haha..
Ordered and installed this set of Amazon springs:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00QLTTWU8?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailp age_o01_s00
Fronts are decent and work well, definitely an improvement over stock as it takes out most of the sway,
but the rears are garbage. Check out my review to see what I mean. I also updated my garage.
Going to hit up my local auto recycler for a set of springs off a 2000 Beetle with a 1.8L. Should
stiffen everything up nicely, I'm hoping.
EDIT: My review on Amazon is pending for approval, shouldn't be long though.
