Front strut bar

Hi guys,
My 05 Lancer did not come with the front strut and rear sway bar so i'm in the market for these to improve the handling and cornering. Do you know hwere i can get the oem ones or if not, any suggestion for the aftermarket part? I kinda like the look of the oem front strut bar. Found one on mitsu parts but it said brace only so not sure if that'ss what i'm looking for. Thanks

Hi Just dont wanna open too many thread so i'll ask here.

I'm trying to get a set of lowered spring for my lancer but dont know what particular tein i should get since they're different for oz rally and es. How could i tell which one would fit my car? Is tere any way to verify this like a hub or upper mount or something? Could someone please point me the key different and then i'll cross check on the part number to work out. Thanks a lot

Just make sure the springs say it is specifically for your car, I believe 2004 to 2006 are the same. No whether it is OZ, LS or ES I don't know if they are different or not for your year.

I believe it's on the door frame or somewhere on your car, but your chassis code should be on your car somewhere. CS6A is the base model like the ES and CS7A is the OZ rally. I can't remember what the chassis code for the LS is, but you can probably look it up. As for Strut bars, Road Race Motorsports makes a front and rear strut bar, but you can also find generic ones online like Ebay. As for lowering springs, ES or LS should be the same, but the OZ rally has an upgraded suspension, so the lowering springs would have to be different.

CS7A is Ralliart, and ASA says OZ rally is a CS6A, CS7W is the wagon, and of course CT9A is the Evo...

the body is wider, and the stance is wider, but i think the strut towers are in the same location...i could be wrong...i still haven't checked ASA, it's installed on my XP partition...i don't know if i can install it on windows 7 64 bit. i'll get it for you...

ASA doesn't show a part number for the OZ Rally, but this part number is for the 04-06 Ralliart MN175913

are you sure oz rallys have strut bars?

for the rear sway bar you need bushings and perches...i don't even know if the car has the holes for it as they are bolted driectly to the body...i know the rear lower control arms have the proper holes, but it's the perches you have to worry about.
