Dumb question, but every time you shut off your car it will drop flat out?

That would be kinda annoying, would like to keep it a set height and not have to mess with it unless I was at a show or raising it to clear something.

Ok that's good, because every video I saw the car deflates when they shut if off. Although cool, it wouldn't be ideal day to day situations.

So there would be no issues by keeping the bags inflated all the time then right? Less use of the compressor and etc.

Nope no problem. Hell I had my car at the body shop for over 2 months with no usage on the system. Didn't drop in pressure at all.

I don't have it on auto. I normally don't drop it down unless I'm at a show or cars and coffee.

John, don't forget to factor in selling your existing suspension components.


Haha my current setup isn't anything special. GT500 shock/struts with cheap springs lol. Wouldn't make much of a dent when you're spending $4K.

Dont order direct. Its priced high because they dont want to sell directly to buyers. Find a site selling for much cheaper

Is the non coilovers style even offered still? Their website only shows the track package.

You could always buy the kit that you add onto stock struts, the rear would stay the same,only swapping the springs with bags and the front you would just need to remove the spring and figure out a way to add the perch for the bag. Only issue I would see is you lose the ability to adjust the height VS PSI. They recommend rifpding at 45 PSI, but if you can't adjust perch height you may have to ride at 65 to get the height you want which may affect your ride quality.

Sorry, didn't realize my box was that full! The regular style struts are no longer available unless you can find someone that has them in stock. They ride well, but do not ride or handle as good as the threaded body struts.
