Nope, not yet. I think you might be able to get the evo front shocks but not much of a point if you still got the crappy back ones.

I hope you mean true full coilovers, cause regular coil overs aren't real good at all on stock suspension.

My stock suspension is completely fine and I've had coilover sleeves on for almost 2 years now.

no those r the super streets. those would be nice to have but i didn't have the money.. the super streets u can adjust the damper (softer or more stiff) rather than just adjusting ride height which r the basics. basics are real nice i love how they feel. you can find these basic coilovers and the superstreets for cheaper that what rrm charges. there the leading seller for lancer parts but they overpriced. i got my basics for 790 with shipping where rrm charges 870 plus shipping..s avings over a 100 bux
