Will Evo 9 Suspension work?

I tried searching for it but all the info was for evo 8 suspension. I know a lot of parts are interchangable between an evo 8 and 9, I was just wondering if evo 9 suspension will work the same as evo 8 suspension in a Galant vr4. I have a line on stock springs and struts with 18K on them for $200.

Thanks
 

What about after market coilovers for the 7-9 after making the bottom end adjustments?
 

My issues I'd have is the quality of D2 and K Sport, and the fact that JIC is insanely expensive and rust super fast.
 

I'm running kyb adjustables shocks all around,and espellir lowering springs in front, H&R in rear, Tein pillow ball mounts in front stocks in rear.
I like the ride, great for autocross.

8's and 9's are the same. You can use either one. The 9's MR had a better bilstein strut package though. Same mounts and same install procedure is needed. The EVO X is different, but not by much. I think there is someone on here working on figuring out if the X suspension can be used.

I've got evo X front struts/springs with Ksport camber plates ready to test fit. But, no car here in NY is delaying a confirmation. From the pictures I've seen, the evo X rears are too tall.

Come on Tyler... get that car up and running so we can test fit these things!
