okay.... i will use pictures to its very easy to understand, cos we might aswell cover this once and cover it comprehensivly so the next guys that come along dont have to ask
IF IN DOUBT, USE COMMON SENSE and research more! and if u dun goof and bought the wrong ones its not my fault, this info is accurate and tested, read it carefully
this is evo 4-5-6-6.5 suspension (will not fit mirage/lancer) please take note:
*the front evo coilover will fit lancer mirage -has both same top and bottom mounts as CE lancer/rage
*however the back evo coilovers will not bolt up, the top mount is the same, however the bottom mount is a fork style mount as seen bellow
*these are not ideal as the spring rate will likely be waaaay too stiff being used on a larger car
left pair = front, right pair = back
this is lancer CE/rage coilovers please take note: (these will fit CE lancer and mirage)
*topmount on fronts has 3 threads same as evo4/5/6
*tomount on backs has 2 threads same as evo4/5/6
*however the backs bottom mount is a bush style fitting which slots in to the CE/rage lower control arm which is not like evo setup
*these are ideal as they will have the correct spring rate etc for your size car
what else do we know?
well, we know that PROTON GEN2 coilovers/shocks fit up, they use the same mounts all round as the CE/rage/lancer, spring rates are unknown but in some cases rates can be chosen on purchase
we also know that CE/rage/lancer can use CC lancer suspension HOWEVER! the front top mounts need to be changed as the CC has a 2 thread top mount whereas the CE has a 3 thread

we also know FTO coilovers fit up, all the same mounts as the ce/rage.lancer
