that would be the reason, I believe you can get the bilsteins in singapore as one of our members here had them briefly. somehow I don't think they'd be any better than the koni yellows available here if you truely wanted seperate shocks and springs

they are very much stiifer than stock. Its a little harsh for street set up IMO, the ride can be really bumpy at the slightess uneven road condition. Other than that, body roll has been reduced significantly, the car corners great. Steering response is much more positive
