change my absorber (2+++ years old) on my FD2 to GAB SA at Yew Exhaust today. According to him, so far I am the 2nd 8GCC member who came to his workshop to change to GAB SA series.

After install, drove down my FD2 to my home in Kerteh. Feels the ride a bit stiff and hard but still comfortable.

What about others who use this absorber?Mind to share your experience using this absorber?

in term of comfort, how does this GAB SA compare to the stock absorber?

IMO, in term of comfort, the original absorber would give more comfort..the GAB SA is a little bit hard when compare to original absorber....

When you take a corner at a high speed and on uneven road condtion, there will be no excessive "bouncing effect" anymore when compare to the stock (stock absorber is soft and tend to bounce more when on the uneven road condition).
I might be wrong but this only my personal experience. Maybe other sifu's could give more explaination.

Thanks for sharing bro.

Hmm... has anyone tried this and the Koni FSD. Really interested to know if the FSD it really "worth" the extra RM2k Confused

Any bros here compared the both?

but the FSD review is more comfortable than original absorber plus better handling.

Maybe that why where it goes with the extra 2K. Idea

Agree with you bro Jensen..

For GAB SA series, you will get better handling but less comfortable when compared to original absorber..

Last night, drove my FD2 to KL via LPT..feels like riding a horse...hard bumping along uneven road..

my friends advise me not to change the coil but change the whole suspension..still thinking to lowered my ride..always being poison to lowered the ride
