The Official CS Lancer Thread!

[R@lli@rt]

Shaolin, lol, exactly!!!

[turbo_beast369]

aye has anyone ever changed the rear wheel bearing/hub on their CS3 ???
i gettin a kinda heavy roll at medium speed....the front ones were changed not long ago so i suspect its the rear....what is the price for it anyone knows????
btw its a local CS3....

[ZeroOne]

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG

I just came from DM.....and i bought the following for my cedia:

1. All the mounts
2. All the brake pads

Price: 2563.24



Shaolin 181k vs 88k thats a land slide victory....but than again your comparing roro to brand new arnt you?

[R@lli@rt]

even if brand new caters to a 3rd world market and has much less features than RORO...

i was abt to tell turbo_beast369, that DM has a sale til month end...

good deal ZeroOne,

[ZeroOne]

yea i know. the point is you cant compare a roro cs3 to a brand new cy and say that roro is better cause its cheaper. Their each in a different league.

If your comparing a brand new cs3 to a roro cs3 then i totaly see your point and agree as well that roro is the better choice.

[R@lli@rt]

no no, i was comparing a roro cs3 to a brand new one in terms of cost which is what started the discussion as with regard to cost, it would be more affordable to buy a roro cs3...

[ZeroOne]

oh my bad thought u all were comparing a roro cs3 to a new cy

anyway will post some pics of the mounts and brake pads for those who wanna compare genuine with substitute.

when u say the roro is d better choice, u mean wrt to pricing?

or are u saying that the roro cars are just made better than the local ones?

[idlemind]

hey ZeroOne, seems like we passed each other @ DM was there round lunchtime bought some Cradle Bushings and Stabilizer Link Kits.

cost $621.00

[R@lli@rt]

with regard to cost

[ZeroOne]

idle if u were in the POS branch and saw a guy in a offwhite jersey that was me lol i was there around lunch time as well.


slick this should answer that question notice that the price of the roro cs3 is 88k and the price for the new cs3 is.......youll see for youself.

I getting a deal on one of these for bout 88k RORO silver, black interior, black trim, white gauges, bodykit, sports grill 34K on the odo ACTUAL. I am however liking the facelifted 09 CY cuz the front looks more evo-ish
181k vs 88k, 2.5 years of payments vs 5 years, recession and having to eat crix and water... real thing to think about yes.

Still wouldnt sell my 01 for all the tea in china...

[R@lli@rt]

I believe the CY is currently @ $224K.

Not too sure...i drove one the other day, awe-fricking-some ride yo!



Anyone gots 18's on their cs3 by chance?

[ZeroOne]

the best rims so far are the ones that come with the GT lancer they 18's i think. but they real bad they actually are a bigger version to the rims that come with my lancer.

[idlemind]

R@lli@rt, DJ Kaotic had 18s on his

[fras]

know of a few with 18's... some were lowered

[slick]

I'm sure you could get 18's to fit on it...the kinda things I see men do with rims and cars....20's on a EG8...it eh funny

[fras]

saw 20's on a cs + it lowered

[turbo_beast369]

hey ZeroOne, seems like we passed each other @ DM was there round lunchtime bought some Cradle Bushings and Stabilizer Link Kits.

cost $621.00

Those stabilizer link kits are for the front suspension not so...thats connects to the cradle....thats $621.00 for both right with VAT?

Anybody ever heard of or seen a rear OEM stabilizer bar on the CS3 with rear drum brakes.....if you look good you see the link bolt holes on the rear lower cradle arm about 4 inches from the shock absorber.....

[ZeroOne]

ok ac question here.

My cedia ac is almost useless around 2pm. It doest blow cold enough around that time of the day to keep the car cool.Aaround that time the ac feels like 26c. Morning time and evening time its cool enough. Any suggestions on what could help?

[R@lli@rt]

thanks venum, i was looking at this set, same colour as those you put up

it doesn't have any black in it tho, just a solid silver...what you think?
you guys think 18's are too much? i like 'wheels' you know? lol...


idlemind, i will ask the dj how the ride was on the car, yeah? (or you can ask, lol...)

[ZeroOne]

that a hawt rim

[R@lli@rt]

ZeroOne, i had that same problem with my cedia! i had to do a thorough check, all the lines, there were a few leaks here and there...then the dryer had to change, had to re-gas only to find out the evaporator died too...

Got it all done in Curepe next to Puff n Stuff, decent prices too, plus they had all the parts i needed

[ronsin1]

$1600.00

Who have that


I back in the country on the 24 th I will check yuh

[idlemind]

turbo_beast369, the Linkage Kit is for the Front and yes it connects to the Craddle Arm. Its Basically a Bolt with a housing and 4 rubber washers.

That and the Craddle Bushing cost in Total $621. I think the 2 x Linkages cost $240 and the 2 x Bushing Cost $320 then add Vat. Not accurate figures, the bill in the car.

R@lli@rt, honestly when i was changing my Rims i was considering 18s but i reconsidered when i hear the effects of 18s and up on the Suspension. You will definately have to lower the car coz ul be up in the sky on Stock. Most 18s are heavy ass rims and thats gonna take a toll. 18" tyres are harder to find and get a good deal in comparison to 17s. To me 17s won in all aspects and next best is 15s. 18s and 16s to me, are in the same bracket in terms on price and availability.

17s got the look of a bigger rim. I went with safer 45Series tyres as opposed to 40 Series in an attempt to safeguard the rim. With 18s you gonna have to go with a really thin profile tyre, most likely 35Series. And if you sometimes care lessly drive like myself, the rim is going to get scratched and bent.

All that Kaotic and I discussed, so i saved you a

ZeroOne, keep in mind these days are hot no tail. My AC does this too, but after driving a lil bit it gets cooler. If you in traffic and have no nice stretch to let the car run and the system to build up, its going to stay warm. Do the checks like R@lli@rt suggested.

venum and ronsin1 allyuh honestly saying that rim nice????
it looking painted over and can fit on a Mini with real turning room

Ok....

Sigh, so i look for 17's...
I had 17's on the Cedia before...so i guess it should be fine either way.
I just found the 18's looked hawt! This is going to be a work in progress for sure! The amount of crap i want to do!

[idlemind]

cheer up chick, there are options if u really want 18s.

get light 18s, go with the tallest series tyre as possible, leave the stock shocks and get some close to OEM lowering Springs that can drop between 1-2 inches and take your time on the roads and in potholes

[ronsin1]
