Hi ppl

Just want to know your thought about coilovers... as i dont know much abut it.
would be great help.. :grin:

I heard that if you run lowered springs on stock shocks..eventually it get's screwed.. so ppl shed some light on this subject please! ;-)

i had springs before and the ride was awful to me now i got tein coilovers on my lancer and hell does it feel alot better. well worth my $800. if you got the money to get the coilovers then its a wise investment

 

Yeah... wicked man
i know that coilovers are the way to go because you can adjust your ride height, dampners mean how smooth/rough you want it??

which is better D2, Tein or Fulcrum.. keep in mind im in australia

example: Tein are Germans (i think) so they are tested with german road standards
fulcrum on the other had been testing it on australian road standard.. but hey they could be a load of S!@#!.. let me know what your thought are guys/girls

i thought tein was from a japan company? as for fulcrum i havnt heard a lot of their product, i am looking at whiteline coilovers, these dont seem to be to bad and have heard a few good things. (either these or hks)

 

yea i think quite a few lancer's have whitelines products.. heard they are pretty good... but i havent heard much about their coilovers yet.. still looking into it

 

yeah, best of going whiteline rear swaybar before anything !! you would never thought of how much difference it'd make ?!!

I had that and kings springs in my lancer, and on tight corners i could pick up the inner wheel it was that stiff..

I have JIC coilovers and a r32 gtr swaybar in my silvia, and ****, it's an unbelievable ride.

 

is the swaybar easy to DIY?? does it go between the gap in the boot? can you post some pic's??

cheers

 

swaybar goes under the car, between the 2 arms. pretty much links the 2 rear axels together.. I'll try to find you a photo..

errr i thought Tein is a taiwanese company??? correct me if I'm wrong

 

No you are wrong.. Tein is truely in Japan & all their products are made in Japan.

D2 is assembly in Taiwan but parts for D2 are from England.

Tanabe, JIC, Cwest etc also has full coilover damper for Lancer.....but they are very very pricey..

There are many taiwanese companies has hi-low coilover damper made for Lancer as well..such as Aurfa, Apollo, Daiyama, DTM, PowerZ, Eifel etc... too many to list...even more than japanese made because Lancer is very popular in Taiwan ....

 

if you are wanting to spend money on suspension you can't go past the whiteline anti lift kit for the Lancer they are awesome it was the $200 spent and that is including fitting and wheel alignment it tightened up the car so much it was fantastic to drive hard

 

where would i be able to purchase the anti-lift kit?? in melbourne..
im pretty sure i woulb be able to find it... too lazy at the monet lol

Not sure of an exact place seeing as you live on the other side of the world to me
But check out some of the suspenssion places and they should be able to organise the parts for you if not check out RPW as they were the people that sorted me out
