Shocks for Stream

[Pisces69]

Hi all.

 

Anybody knows where to get OEM shocks for 2005, 2.0lit Honda Stream?

 

I need to change as 1 is already leaking. I prefer OEM instead of Original cos normally its cheaper.

 

Is Stream shocks gas or oil? I prefer gas if u can advise where to buy from.

 

Thanks.

Did you check with Tian Seng at Waterloo street. Honda drivers usually go there for parts.

OEM usually is of similar quality to original parts. But prices maybe 20-30% lower.

 

Afterall the car companies dont make the parts themselves but buy from the OEM suppliers.

 

Problem is to find out who r the OEM for the various makes.

 

KYB make shocks for most Jap models but seems Honda & Optra does not use KYB shocks.

 

Even my Optra I still have not found out who is the OEM supplier for shocks. Still looking but worse come to worse, I get from Song Yi or He Xiang cos they sell Original parts but prices quite high.

For shocks, get original types lah as it is a crucial component of the car. Don't save money on it.

 

I have seen some differences in quality between OEM and original parts as regards spark plugs, air filters, oil filters etc. Having seen them, I don't mind paying for slightly more for the original ones.

Last time I bought my KYB Jap made shocks(OEM) & the quality looks & feels much better than those Original Toyota shocks. I think the Original shocks were made in some 3rd world country.

 

Same with all those other Original parts. I always check the country of origin cos that makes a big difference in the quality.

 

My preferred choice made in Japan but Korea & even Thai for those low tech parts is acceptable. MY is out for me cos I usually see the quality like & China is 100% not for me.

Original & Made in Japan is the safest but if I can get OEM made in Japan at 20-30% less, then I go for OEM.

 

My Optra quite hard to find OEM parts cos I not familiar with Korean OEMs. Last time my Toyota, no problems.

 

So far, most of the parts I got for the Optra was Original from Song Yi or He Xiang who r authorised stockists.

 

I tried calling GMODC last month but seems nobody answer the phone. I think they closed down already.
