No. Only springs are required to lower your car, although new shocks are highly recommended.

Thanks mayhem This is correct, springs will be the item you want. With springs, performance shocks are recommended. What you dont want to do is over power the stock shock/struts with a performance spring. This is why it is good to have a shock/strut that is equally as performance oriented as the springs.

It does, however, I believe that Bhakuei has a non-EVO Lancer. In this case, its shocks would not be as peformance oriented as the EVO's. Please correct me if I am wrong

For your clarification, the rear sway bar is to help correct the understeer that our front wheel drive car has. It'll help the rear wheels break loose a little bit easier so you can take turns a little sharper.
