time has come to shift perspectives. im not at liberty just yet to say what car im gonna get, but for those familiar with engines, lets just say im looking to be switching over to the kappa platform. my father will be taking on the 6gc and requests not to have the airbag setup. so here it is for anyone interested. price for everything is $1500 shipped to your door, provided you live in the contiguous 48 states. If you live nearby, ill even give you a discount since i'll save some from shipping. It is a complete bolt-on kit that requires nothing additional for a 2 switch operation. you can have either left/right or front/back. If you want the full front/back/left/right/seesaw/teeter/pancake action, i will include the 10 switch box and additional 2 solenoids. The only other thing required would be 2 additional solenoids that you can find online or at your nearby import shop for around 30 bucks each.

this is what the tank set up looks like in the trunk. as you can see, it sits nicely on a custom fitted carpet plank with the 2 compressors and 4 solenoids below it. The metal air hoses were also custom fabricated straight from Deering Industries, same company that west coast choppers and aircraft companies go to for parts. the hoses were a little messy in my trunk, but i left LOTS of room to fit it to your specifications. one shouldn't need to buy any more. The hoses are 1/4" (standard for airride suspensions). you wont notice a difference if getting a bigger size. as long as you have enough air in the tank, you should be able to raise the whole car in 1 second. the 2 compressors fill the tank completely in 3 minutes.

all you do is run the hose to the tank setup. looks kinda messy but you get the idea.

front airbag vs. my old coilovers. you can see that its a straight bolt on

this is an internet pic of a 10 switch similar to the one i have. mine is smoky colored though. more opaque rather than transparent. but u can see through it.
