Cusco: http://suspension.cuscousainc.com/ i see... thought was referring to color I am not driving Forester but GT7 XV. got myself a used set of Prodrive 18x8 offset 45 to prepare for my GDB Brembo project, a set which I kept from my Legacy days... even my old Prodrive GC07 17x7.5 offset 45 cleared barely with like 1mm to spare on previous ride... ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darrenkhu 1st Gear February 24, 2019 Share February 24, 2019 Hey Darren, Ah Keong not free until end Feb or early Mar 2019. Decided to go to same ws used by kaki who helped me to get the cusco touring A and remote controller since his was installed there without any issue ... collecting on Monday and will run in for 1-2 weeks before going to kenny on expected same bad news of needing adjudtablr rear camber arm kit .. will set to 20/22 as a start. Cheers. Richard Hi Richard! Sorry for the late reply! Wow Keong becoming very popular lol! I tried 15/15 yesterday and 25/23 today. Your kaki was right.. it’s better and I don’t find it stiff yet. The response is much better. Will experiment it more.. hahaha Am going for pps next week.. car is in a mess.. oops Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your kaki was right.. itâs better and I donât find it stiff yet. The response is much better. Will experiment it more.. hahaha Am going for pps next week.. car is in a mess.. oops Hi Darren, No worry .. think Ah Keong at BKS Woodlands is always busy. Steady family man and champion worksmanship from how he fitted my IAG AOS and took initiative to re-run racechip harness with customized mount plate without asking. I will reserve my review and further comments as I am still trying to dial in my preferred setting after 1 week after fitting .. had AB compared kaki's rsr setup which I am very familiar before he fitted the cusco touring A at 16/16 now and will comment on pink spring before and after cusco touring A with varied settings soon. At this juncture, YMMV due to expectation and butt feel but suffice to say that cusco touring A to me is still not the elusive answer to me to achieve the elusive compliant ride for the forester xt with pink that I had hope for .. and the 3 mths old FL mazda 6 executive whose ride is good enuff for me as sanity check ensures that I am reminded in comparison. Btw, you are in rsr right ? From 10/10 to 15/15 and 25/23, it seems to me that you are also struggling a bit but hope I am wrong .. lol ! Cheers.

Swirlsurfer13 Clutched February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 The stock rotor and caliper for xt is slightly bigger than that of fna.Do you know if the FNA stock calipers can be used for the XT stock rotors and brake pads? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notknow11 1st Gear February 25, 2019 Share February 25, 2019 Do you know if the FNA stock calipers can be used for the XT stock rotors and brake pads?You mean you want to be the stock fna kit on the xt? I don't understand. Why woud you want to do that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Notknow, Perhaps bro is driving fna and can only get rotor and pad from xt wthout the calipers ?? No, I do not believe can be done since larger rotor mean cannot fit or biting inside of rotor since fna calipers are aiming for small rotor. Cheers.

I would think not possible as I have previous experience trying to do similar on a different ride and end up need to change whole set. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBboy 2nd Gear February 26, 2019 Share February 26, 2019 Hi all, Anyone on Kumho Tyre for FNA 225/60/17R? Any recommendation for workshop to replace tyres? As a few of my regular place all told me the 225/60/17R is not a common size, they have to order. (But so many of us is on the road now a days) My ride is 37000KM now. As an alternative, maybe you can consider changing car tyres in Johor Bahru? There are several well known brands available for 225/60 x 17: - Michelin Primacy 4 - Continental UC6 - Goodyear Wrangler TripleMax Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Richard is correct - Initially I could only get the XT pads and rotors. Thankfully I managed to find another bro who was selling his whole stock XT set which included calipers. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

richard_crl032 6th Gear February 28, 2019 Share February 28, 2019 Thanks JBboy. Hi falcon, Please add Pirelli Scorpion Verdes but remove noisy Conti CPC6. Primary 4 ST also looks and feel different from Primacy 3 ST which I hope you still can get 2018 ones. Cheers, Richard Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Continental: Syarikat Lim Chin Hin, in Taman Pelangi. New tyre version is UC6. Goodyear: Hawk Tyre Service (large tyre chain within JB), Jalan Badik 1, in Taman Sri Tebrau. Much cheaper? What do they have for our forester? Anyone using 225/55/17? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBboy 2nd Gear March 3, 2019 Share March 3, 2019 (edited) The tyre size is for FNA - 225/60 x 17. Sorry, I did not ask for other sizes or brands (Korean & Japan). Michelin Primacy 4 (Made in Thailand?) is around RM560/pc to RM590/pc. Continental UC6 (Made in Malaysia) is around RM490/pc. Goodyear Wrangler Triplemax (Made in Malaysia or Thailand?) is around RM450/pc. All tyre dealers give better discount if 4 tyres are replaced.

MoXiao 1st Gear March 4, 2019 Share March 4, 2019 Ah boon not able to solve because he didn’t install this OBD model before where the installation methods are different. I DIY my self and it works... Look for the post that I verify with Richard. That’s the OBD device that me and MO purchased. Bro, When are you available to help with my device? Or you have imparted the knowledge to Ah boon?

Tommyx 1st Gear March 5, 2019 Share March 5, 2019 Hi all My missus accidentally brushed one of my rims of my 6 mths old FNA. Quite badly scratched. I want to use back the existing tyres so what are my options? I know the cheapest and easiest one is to buy used fna stock rims but checking if there are other options.. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
