suspension/handling woes

[mrcyborg]

what bushes are you looking at cblancergsr?

cc gsr and evo use different front control arm bushes from each other, cb lancer in gsr use the same as evo, non cb gsr use the same as cc gsr. i would think e4 and onwards would be diff again.

search on that page for ca/cb model. when you click on the view buttom it will give you a picture and it tells you gsr or non gsr. the main diff bush the one the same as the evo and the one evryone wants is the spf2026k double off set for the front lower control arm inner rear. they are gold i can assure you. hard to get changed mind you but good.

also for the very few peps with a c73a not everything is the same, sway bar is diff. if people wana know i can go ferther.

i was looking too both the front inner and front rear bush

by the nolathane catalogue both cb gsr and cc gsr and e1-e6 are all the same bush it didnt sound right but i thought it musta been right thanks for the correction mrcyborg I now know for next time

i never thought of looking at the fulcrum catalogue becuase i thought it should give you the same information but i was wrong

what about the sway bar is different
i think cb gsr have 19mm and 22mm diameter swaybars is there anything else that is different about them, i own a c73a gsr and im considering suspension upgrades

no shit, you got a AWD too!! sweet, i didnt know there was another in QLD!
the awd has different swaybar setup to the aust del gsr cb. the aust has a diff size and a ball link setup, where the AWD has the rod and donut bush style, i just got some from like a falcon or commy, just take out the bush and go match it up, rear is the same bush just less bushes from memory. thw AWD also has a differ panhard rod too, i had a custom one done, but i know people are using a commodore one, not sure what model, would have to check that. the front control arm bushes are the same as the cb gsr aust model, and evo 1 and 2. i know when i did my swaybar bushes i just measured the thickness of the bar and got universal ones for that size. i have had better time fitting and using the superpro bushes, i think they are better made. but havent had to much trouble with the nolathane gear as long as you know what you are getting, if someone else orders it then you will probably get the wrong thing.

nah i wish i had a AWD, mines FWD but its a c73a gearbox is a f5m22 4g61 N/A

yer i only now about nolathane thats because thats what we use at work but i know a couple of the guys at fulcrum in queensland

too tell everyone the truth i really didnt now that there was heaps of cb gsrs and cyborgs around australia, i havent seen too many around and i dont see too many for sale

yours will be a c63a then, the c53a is a two door fwd, the c63a is five door lift back, c73a is awd sedan, and the c83a is a awd two door.

i think the fulcrum bushes are a bit better quality and seem to be easier to install.

 

[cblancergsr]

ok it will be a c63a then i just thought i read c73a on the firewall

i need too get my eyes checked out

hmm.. for some reason only qld has a poor population of cb lancer. most ppl just use them as a daily car or grannies lol but nothing like we do. There were a few brisbane ppl but sold out their cars. Couple of guys way up north (bunderberg) but I guess that makes us even more special and unique

 

[cblancergsr]

I liked when you said special and unique i really quite enjoy my lancer

im now thinking of building another gsr that i found at the wreckers that has no panel damage and was a grandmas car and is well look after soo i thought it could be another project car
