Why not order from lancerregister.com? It's probably one of the few places in the North America that still sells Ralliart products.

Oops. Yes, I meant Lancershop, but I totally mixed up lancerregister and lancershop. Direct from Japan is probably the most likely source.

Do you suggest that I do the preload or should I buy another set of 10k springs for the rear, or a combination for the both?

Your choice. 8k springs will produce a slightly smoother ride, but of course will allow a bit more lean and loss of tire contact patch. Almost always tradeoffs.

http://performanceshock.com/ can handle it. I would just give them a call. Cost would depend on what (if any) parts are needed.

Its one of those finer rear suspension mods. You will certainly not notice it on the street. Track mod only

The WL RCK only adjusts about 5-6mm on the front, its basically worthless unless you need to replace ball joints.

Quick question, I just had my Ohlins installed but having issues with rear toe adjustability. I see Godspeed makes a kit or I can grind things out. Looking for a bolt on solution, no grinding if at all possible. Am I missing a simple answer?

What do you mean by grind things out? What sort of issues were you having adjusting toe? Unable to makes adjustments at all or just unable to get it to where you want it to end up?

What are you trying to get to on Toe and camber? The rear shouldnt need too much beyond what the factory gives unless you are going to the extremes on something. Too much low and not enough camber will give you more toe in. Solution, add camber or raise car.

I assume the above scenario is what you're struggling with.
