Hi Mark!
Another WA guy, awesome, and a ralliart no less!
You just missed a cruise, keep an eye out for the next one :)


It should be about a 38mm drop at the front and 35mm at the back according to info I've read. I also hear they're a quality brand.

This picture is Troy's (aspir3's) Aspire with King's, which are around a 30mm drop:

I hope he doesn't mind me using the picture. Hes changed to coilovers since then. :)


Did you find them in Australia? What was postage? I have a link to some supremely cheap ones in america but shipping would almost double the price :(


Are your springs ralliart springs or just lancer springs? I think they are compatible, but ralliarts are a bit heavier so you'll get a nice drop on lancer springs :)

Hi Mark, it is nice to see more RA's joining the WA group :)

It looks like you hit the ground running with the mods, I like it :D

$370 is a good price for springs, I'm guessing you got them from O/S because Australia has inflated prices...

I got a set of eibach springs for $350 (Jake the springs cost $191USD and shipping was $159USD, or around those figures, unfortunately that's just the way it is for us...) I also got quoted around the $1000 mark just for the eibachs...so stupid...

If you search "H&R" I'm sure you will find something, plus in the "suspension" section there are 2 good threads about springs, 1 is to show the drop, the other is more of a review of springs, check them out and you may find H&R in there somewhere.

Be sure to come to a cruise and show off your RA, and maybe take some of us NA lancer drivers for a spin? :wink:

Anyways, that's enough from me, welcome and let us know if you need anything :)

Hey Mark, Welcome to ClubCJ.

I'm sure you will find all the tech talk and mod info you seek, as many others have in past, here on CCJ.

It seem you have already received a warm welcome from two prominent and active WA members in Jake & David.

Enjoy your welcome and new found club friends, I'm sure they will arrange a meet for you soon.

Sam.

Great response thanks guys!

yeah i got them from advanced speed shop.com ..i think i read it in one of those threads itachi just mentioned
:lol: got some usefull info!

They were $197US and $158 postage..cheapest i could find, definatly worth the postage tho! all the spots i called local for iether eibach sportlines(which i thawt would be a little too low with a 1.7" drop) or the h&r were not less than $650 for just springs-lol and eibach direct selling for $450 AU

Im pretty certain they fit 2008+..the part numbers on all the sites i stopped at were the same 52910-52912 and mine being 52911.

And cheers for the pic there dire lol copy infringement is a crime hey :wink:
