In this episode of Larry Chen's YouTube channel, we delve into the world of suspension upgrades. Larry and his team are at the Sunbeam shop in Japan, a renowned establishment known for their expertise in suspension, handling, and alignment. They've received a shipment of new dampers from California and are excited to install them on their car.

Larry explains the importance of adjusting the ride height and preload on the springs to optimize the performance of the dampers. The team discusses the differences between the new dampers and the ones currently on the car, noting features like the piggyback tank and the lower mount. They anticipate that the new suspension will transform the car's handling, allowing for more aggressive driving on the track.

While at the Sunbeam shop, Larry takes the opportunity to explore the premises. He admires the layout and cleanliness of the shop, which feels more like a lounge than a place to work on cars. The team is particularly drawn to the display of BMW CSLs, marveling at their modifications and weight reduction. They also express their love for Japanese car customization and the attention to detail that goes into making these cars look and perform their best.

As they prepare to install the new suspension, Larry and his team clean the car and discuss their plans for additional modifications, such as installing LED lights and possibly adding underglow lights. They are impressed with the level of detail and craftsmanship at the Sunbeam shop, from the clean wiring to the precise installation process. Overall, they are excited to see how the new suspension will enhance the car's performance and take it to the next level on the track.
