Tein would be the best route, but for stock shocks, I would stick with the dealer.

If the car dropped like that once you installed the springs, verify that you got the right ones (remember, ES springs are NOT good for the OZ...) and make sure the springs are properly seated. If not you could run into trouble even if you replace the shocks.

Look at it this way.
How much for a set of lowering springs?
Then add in the cost of adjustable shocks/struts.
That's about $600 before taxes and shipping alone, assuming you get Ralli///Art struts (which are unavailable?) and Eibach springs.
Add in the cost of the adjustable dampening, which I don't have a figure for, and the Tein SS Damper kit becomes a lot more reasonable in price.

well, actually I use the Eibach springs and stock shocks, and I went to autocross often so that why I think my stock shocks it is dead>.<......the big noice it is drive me crazy. so I hope everybody know where to find the Shocks not coilover for the Lancer OZ? well, I used to found RalliArt at RMR webside but it is no longer in Stock now, so disappointed>.<.....I went to the Beilstein, H&R and Koni, they all doesn't offer the Shocks or coilover for the Lancer OZ, well, is that our car it is kind of an orphan?......I am think about to find the Japanese shocks product such as: HKS, Tanabe, Tein...etc. so if you guys know where to find shocks for our Lancer OZ please talk to me!!!

Thanks~~~~~~^^
