Progress makes springs for the ES, and Ground Control makes coilover sleeves for it as well.

I heard the ground contol coil overs suck. Go with the Road///Race Progress springs, a lot of people seem to like those, and they're pretty cheap. go here to check them out:

My fault! I forgot that you specified you drive an 04. The options I listed are for the 02-03 models.

z: the teins will fit the OZ. Tein assumed that because both were called "lancers" the springs would also fit the ES. Talk about not doing homework.

And does H&R make springs for our car? Someone over a year ago said that a cup kit was supposed to be in the works, and when I called them last year they said "maybe, but prob not as we'll be focusing on the Evo"

Man, I called H&R TWO years ago and they said they were working on springs and that they'd be ready by the end of summer. If you're waiting for them, might as well jump in line with the Tokico crowd.
