there oe jepun vry well know but it then to leak just aft 1yr of usage and i had change twice on my previous ride..I simple love that brand then....it green in colour by the way.
Changing coilover all voice down to needs and budget loh....if you really need to go track and hard core road drive...a more reputable Jepun or conti brand maybe you next best choice and not to mention pricing too.
there are many taiwaness brand in the market too....like D2,BB,Tomei.....etc. I can only comment on tomei as i had and still is using. there are a few bro on tomei and feed back was quite positive... many bro are just sharing their experience and pain going through all the testing...dun think any bro will benefit from any of the brands discussed and recomended...
Lastly, I strongly recomend Ohlin & Belstein.....NO1 Choice......
Cheers

totally different feel. current model RS2 firm but not hash....sort of conti feel.very comfy. my previous model is N1 which i think is too hash for most bro here. anyway, my ride is fully hooked up from front to rear and top to bottom so there is almost no roll.
As I had shared with you b4, it tomei not the best but for the price I paid....how to complain...
. worst bought ex coilover problem nobody can help.
cheers

THere is a shop selling KYB replacement shock for RB1 for approx 180/pcs. I think the shop name is called Chop AIk huat, they carry KYB and Koni shocks.
