so i only had my kyb for like half a year and i blew them out already. Well, i did hit this bridge pretty hard (hard enough that i got my front wheels in the air) then i hit this pothole. then it started to act up.
the front right wheel makes this weird poping noise, like the sound of a flat tire, whenever i come to a stop, when i start from a full stop, and under heavy acceleration.

i first thought this was a control arm or bearings or something of that sort but i guess not. so, i'm gonna get toyota struts with my sportlines still in there. is that bad? i hear toyota struts are just as good as kyb.

anywho, my car is causing quite some troubles lately and i'm not too happy.

its looks like my friend rip me off and only put the back two kyb struts the first time and left the front two ones stock. let them blow out and make me come back to the shop i guess.
so, its the same thing as me paying extra 500 bucks just to get the front stuts installed, making it look ilke he bought teo new struts and installed them or some bs like that.
i can't believe he did that to me...

i can't even tell him that i know what he did to rip me off...

Yes you can tell him.
He cant be a friend and rip you off at the same time.
