just check with Singapore Koni dealer today. Quoted S$630 per set for Rex yellow type and S$730 per set for RexII red color type. But need to order 8 weeks. Much cheaper down south. Can get other gas type also locally. Rear RM170 each and front RM220 each. But how good don't know.

I tried to search and this is the cheapest price so far, others are easily at around 400 Pound that is about RM2,000 here exclude shipment. Can start a thread to discuss on this for those who are interested.

Also some bros who added Ultra Racing Strout/Anti-Roll bars and Auto Foam to improve the handling could perhaps share their experience here too.

Chase the loan officer faster la, most cases can be approved in 24 hours. They are getting paid to do the job afterall.

I did, submitted the application on Monday morning, called up this evening and he seems to be frustrated, and keep telling me they knew what needs to be done, and it will take min 2-3 days.

Sigh...I heard from my fren 24 hours is possible if its a new car I'm about to purchase, used car normally takes longer

I would have handle the loan application personally and save a little interest.
