Koni Sport Spring on Civic ET2.0

Koni .. Oooo Koni

On 16/2/2011 , i went for the installation at one of reputable suspension specialist (BS) in my hometown . At first the big boss seem to be very surprise after i said i want to install Koni Spring , rare he said . But being a specialist , i know he try to be as natural as possible and did the installation as usual . With 5 strong workers as healthy as a horse and a great working tools / machines , they only took 35 minute give and take to complete the task .

But once i drove out of the workshop , i notice theres a popping sound everytime the steering turn left and right even if the car didn't move . Initially i thought it just my feeling , so i drove to a tire shop to do the alignment and balancing , ignoring it . Surprisingly , the mechanic also notice it and complaint the same abt the weird sound , but he claim notting wrong w the alignment , it was something else .

40 minutes later , i drove back to previous workshop and complaint to the big boss . He took the key and tried the ride himself . Clueless , he ask his workers to open it up again for inspection and reinstall again . Yupp , he open up twice - 2 times . Arrogantly , he denies any problem with the installation process and put the blame on heavy engine weight plus the lowered spring might damage the front chamber already . He refused to touch the car again after the second installation process completely done . Thus suggest to seek other mechanics .

I'm very frustrated because even the 'suspension specialist' cant settle my problem . Lost my mood for my next mod plan , the Mugen twinloop exhaust . Duhh ... Gerammnye !
