they ride stiff but the car is very responsive. and the turbo RA made my butt pucker a little. also made me realize that its pretty easy to get a $5,000 loan...

springs were 180
install was 180

havnt had any problems yet, i know the car is lowered and i have to take it easy, i never drive fast over speedbumps or dips anyways. next plans for the car are rims and tint. then it will be time to save for turbo. unless i decide to sell it for the new SRT-4. that ownt happen until mid 07 so yeah. other than tint and wheels the car is done

Will it void your warranty if your engine blows, no. The mod has to be related to what happened to void the warranty. They're making the caliber srt-4 so i'm assuming he means that one.

$180USD for the springs? Damn I got my Tein's for $180CAD. And then damn another $180USD for install? I paid $200CAD for install and alignment! Expensive

Thats a nice front tuck though, I didnt realize your front had dropped that much. A club member complained that the springs made the back end rise, did your's do that?

well those prices were what roadrace charges. actually one of the guys told me 150 for install then when i got there and he told me 180... its only 30 bucks so no big deal.

i didnt notice and drop in the rear but im hoping that they settle and actually do drop. i want some Rota Circuit 10's in a 17x7

Glad you liked our RA and glad you like the springs. They are still prolly the best for the Lancers. At least we had imput in their development and I think it shows.
