I would also like to know how much they are. And do they come with pillow ball mounts?

Looks great...

Looks like a nice clean drop, I would recommend you take the extra step and get your suspension tuned by RobiSpec. He does a laser race alignment (toe, and camber) and a corner balance to help get the cross-weight as close to 50% as possible. When I installed my tein superstreets they felt awesome, and then I had the tune done by Robi and the handling of my Lancer went from awesome to ridiculously awesome. Best $180 I've ever spent. The car looks good man.

RACING LOGIC w/ Swift Springs Ultra Complex Competition Spec.
MSRP:$1500
Bought for:$1200 +tax

SPECs:
34-Step Adjustable by Clicks, Comes with Adjustable Camber Plates. Spring Rates are 8kg/mm Fronts, 7kg/mm Rear (Lancer comes with 8kg/mm 6kg/mm). Fully Adjustable Body. Made from Forged T6061 Aluminum with T6. 52mm Mono tube design.

These are on for a good month now and the handeling is out of this world. The coilover itself out of the box is just sex. Compared to other coilover i have seen, these have a thicker body and are forged not welded like most coilovers. Full Ride height adjustability and comes with perty camber plates. Damper is set at lowest setting for front and rear for daily driving. Ride height is about 1/2in drop in front and stock in the rear (Will be planning to drop in the future). I would say the ride comfort right now is bearable. You can feel the stiffness of the ride but not every single bump on the road stiff (depending on the road). Braking has improved dramaticly with the more even weight transfer. I notice that i can late brake into a turn without losing too much speed.

Overall id rate this 9 out of 10. The handeling is just wonderfull in and out of turns.Ride is almost like a go kart but still bearable for daily driving. Compared to K-sports, Tein basic and SS, which I have test drove before, the racing logics seem more stiff overall. It has the clickable damper adjustments, which K-Sports lack to have. IMO stiffer than Tein and K-sport, more adjustablity than Tein, and the availablity of different spring rates offered from SWIFT.
