Evo V OEM struts

Does anyone know where I can find front shock absorbers/struts for the CP9A chassis? I've been searching online with no success. I can't even find a part number to cross reference if any other vehicles use the same kind.

Thanks Todd. Searching locally I cannot find these anywhere, does anyone know a retailer? Or another part number I can go by? (Such as KYB part number or other strut manufacturer)

failing that there are places in Montreal and Toronto that specialise in JDM.
Also check camskill.co.uk.

Just drill out your front hubs, make some spacers and fit struts from an Evo 8/9.

KYB Numbers NST5156R and NST5164L

or as greg says you can fit the later evo 7/8/9 front ones but it envolves using a 2mm shim either side and drilling the knuckle 12mm holes to 14 mm or theres a kit you can buy and still use the 12mm bolts

Thanks for all the help folks, with all the information you have given me I should be able to get a hold of one and get my Evo back on the road.
