Verna crdi suspension options

[optimus_prime]

Wanted to know if here are any not too expensive options for front suspension for verna to go with the rear monroe dampers. Or is it better to just pick up new OE front suspension?

Its always better to go with the OE suspension.

What is the cost of the OE front suspension that has been quoted to you?

If cost is known then we can compare with the aftermarket front suspension for verna.

OE verna suspension is by far te worst of the options

its not about the cost. Fron should be around 6k and rear 8k. Now with the monroe rear is taken care of. Want to know if there is any option for the front. Stuff like bilsteins are way too expensive anyway and I dont need sport suspension.

One of my friend in kerala has changed the front suspension in his old verna. He said it was the best. Will see if i can get details from him and let you know.

Bilsteins not available for the Verna anyway. Isn't there atleast two threads on this topic already? One by Ripper and the other by Eapen? Go thru them to see if they've listed anything.

IIRC, H&R has lowering springs for the Verna. Get OE struts, lowering springs. Suspension will be stiff, lowered, ride quality will take a toss. But handling will surely get better.

Na I'm not doing all the spring business. If there are no strut options available then I'll get OE struts and pick up bigger rims. Should be more comfortable than lowering the car and stuff.

I am thinking of getting Europe spec KYB springs for stiffening the chassis. Hyundai OE springs are too soft meant for less enthusiastic drivers. Any hit on a dip / pothole in the road would make the car dive into it & then make it oscillating. I have brought down the high speed vertical & turn-ins oscillations to a certain extent by the Monroes & anti-roll bar, but more should be done for low speed stability.

I travelled in my BIL's diesel Mitsubishi Lancer. The ride is terrific for a diesel car. The springs are tuned perfect with no undue oscillations.
Sadly its let down by a NA 2L IDI engine.

I had glanced across this russian site describing the difference between stock

With the nonsensical translation I could make out that the guy is explaining KYBs are stiffer than stock.

Check these photos of
Hyundai OEM Verna\2008 Accent rear spring


Hyundai KYB Verna\2008 Accent rear spring


Check the difference in design. KYB is less wider than stock, more symmterical & has slightly more wounds.

KYB springs are also known as Kayaba K-Flex Springs
