CS3A Front Shocks

Postby boost11 » September 16th, 2013, 3:11 pm

Guys, i need some help here please, so, i own a cs3 from the firm (the "sport" model) and after a couple years, well my front shocks need replacing. So i scanned the forum here and saw on the cs thread that the lancer can use kyb excel g shocks. so i bought them, went to get them installed only to realize that they cant fit :| the mechanic showed me that the plate the spring sits on is too small on the excel g as compared to the OEM and my springs won't sit on them. so far ive checked a couple places and im not finding it. i mean they have the shocks, but they're all the same size as the excel g which wont work. In the firm, the OEM is 6000 a pair AFTER discount :oops: soo, anyone know where i might be able to find the correct size? 6000 is allootttt and milk and pampers not cheap these days LOL, thanks in advance

Wow it been three years since i put in the tokico and well they completely dead now not bad just about years i go from them. But i thinking about going coilovers now, not really interested in lowering my car just want the firm yet smooth feel. Don't have a clue where to get the correct coil overs. want to buy them online but not sure if what i am seeing is the correct thing
