anyone see this before?

alright,

i was thinking of buying the ebay H-bar under brace that someone of you have, and i emailed the seller to see if it would git an '06 OZ, they said yes. and he sent me a link to his website...turns out this company actually has a lot of stuff!

they sell it for much cheaper on the web site than ebay!

i think its worth a look....short shifter for 26$, F+R strut braces and H bar for 64$...man this stuff is cheap, and from the H bar reviews, i think for the prices, you cant go wrong!

http://www.tuningpros.com/ thats the link. Im deff. gona be buyin the brace combo set and short shifter soon!

anyone ever know of this site? tried anything else but the h bar?

thank you for posting, i don't have any suspension mods and i fly my way through corners a lot, i'm going to pick this up after i do my exhaust, thanks again

i'd like to buy it from the website, they have
"Lancer 02 03 04 05 Front/Rear Strut Bar/ H Brace Arm"
is it going to be worth getting all 3 or are the strut bars complete crap?

If you don't have any suspension mods, don't bother. First get the upgraded sway bar from RRM, especially if you have an ES. It's literally a night and day difference in terms of handling and just how the car feels. After that save up and get coilovers and a decent set of rims and tires. Strut bars, tie bars and this brace stuff don't do a lot in terms of handling, they're nice to have if you're one of those people who want everything they can get but they won't turn your car into a race car. A lot of the autocross guys don't even use them or have had them and taken them off.

If you don't care about suspension, save your money. If you simply must have something, get a front strut bar since it looks good in the engine bay.

Easy answer, because springs suck. Long answer, the key to a good performing suspension is a set of matched shocks and springs. At the moment there are no high performance shocks available for the lancer, the only option is stock replacements or the stock-like ones from KYB.
