Their web site says that they come with the adjustable upper camber plates.

I want some damn KYB AGX struts, honestly is that too much to ask for??? I cant believe Ive been waiting for 2+ years and still nothing. Some might say go with Tein Coil overs, but I refuse to pay that much for somethign that will corrode like crazy during winter. (Tein has a nice anti corrosive coating, but its not offered on the models availible for our cars...)

The bolt pattern is different, isn't it?

Unfortunately, KYB and Koni don't seem to have plans to make shocks for us... ever

what i was actually looking for was more info on the mirage front AGX's. i found an old post on the mirage boards about how they were 1" wider on the bottom perch since they were for the heavier asian models and that the mirage guys used them anyways even though their springs were to small for the perches. then i found another thread here about how someone fitted them to their oz, except the person used agx's for the 1.5 mirage? i'm still a little confused as to whether the asian model AGX's have been attempted a swap. the mirage thread also says that the nonadjustable gr-2's are actually USDM spec so there wouldn't be a chance in using those at all.

and then i noticed RRM sells the mirage agx's and if they couldn't make em fit, then i doubt we would either.

yeah, we're never getting any struts

I can't believe this thread is still going strong? I guess the aftermarket will continue to neglect the Lancer in the strut department. Still saving for the Koni conversion kit-maybe once college and the kids don't require daycare (and I quit wearing out Kumhos at autocrosses). Do Mini's have this problem?

I've done a little research on the 'net and at AX days and it appears that the Lancer is the ONLY vehicle that's been out for more than 2 years that has little to no aftermarket support. It's really freaking sad

If you're asking about the tire problem, I have personally witnessed an HS Mini DELAMINATE his brand new tires on an autocross. The funny thing is, my fellow courseworker was watching him spin the inside tire on every corner and say "man, he could delaminate his tires doing that". Sure enough, half way around his second run... ah well: you live, you learn, you get LSD and run in STX class
