Tyre swap and alignment in Kee Hin

In KL, there is no shop that I trust in terms of tyre alignment except for this shop Kee Hin. This shop has been around as long as KFC has established a base in Malaysia. 30 over odd years! It has been a Michelin dealer since then and business kept expanding. I realised that I haven't swapped my tyre from back to front and vice versa for over 10,000km. Its vital to do it ever 7,000 to 10,000km, as it would evenly wear your tyres. So I was there and ask them to help me swap the tyres. Later on, I let them align the tyres back, so I can tackle corners properly and without and chances of losing grip and skidding. Putting the car on the computer, you could see how much it was off and now its all back in good shape. Price? RM30, well I have been a loyal customer.

BH Auto : GAB Springs, alignment and camber settings

Today, I was really rushing for time. I have so much to do and so little time to prep myself for the upcoming track day. I had to finish everything at 6PM. I tried to dump my car in the local Proton service center in Kampar, but they were overbooked. So I had no choice to drive up to Ipoh to BH Auto. This shop is not bad, but a bit pricey compared to KL. I decided to do it here, since I could pay through my credit card. (I am cash-strapped) Anyways, I did the alignment balancing and installation of the 2nd hand, 1-month old GAB coilover springs that I bought for RM250 from another friend. His car was too low to support these springs, so instead he got R3 branded Eibach springs. So, seeing this as an oppurtunity, I withdrew all my savings and dump it at those springs. After all the installation and all, I tested the car on the North South Highway on my way home to Kampar. These springs gave a more solid feeling and it is much stiffer than stock. I haven't done an extreme hard cornering yet, but I hope these would serve me well for the coming track day.
