alright guys, i managed to save up $2500, and i'm ready for air suspension. i know some of you already have cylinders installed, and could probably help me choose the kit that's right with as little frustration as possible.

i want a kit that will be semi quick, and allow me to suck up at least one side of the rear, possibly left and right if not too expensive.

i will be installing the kit with a couple mini truckin buddies of mine, so if fabrication is needed, it's not really too much of a problem. i've heard that if you get a cheap kit, you will be repurchasing a lot of fittings and such, and i would just like to skip that step.

can anyone recommend a brand or two that has proven to work nicely on 2g's? i'm looking to go as low as possible. how low can you guys sit? any pictures?

Sorry to get off the topic, but you are my hero. I'm selling my car, but everything that I wanted to do to it, you've done with yours. Same color, body kit, wing, NOS, I wanted hi-comp, I don't know if you are or not, but I also wanted air struts. Man, good luck on your car, it's everything mine can't be. I'll be getting another Talon, when I can afford to replace everything at one time, so I'm ready for it. Alright, done blabbing, back to the topic.

Good luck.

thanks man. :thumbsup

anyone? my 19's are dying to be tucked in the wheel wells when i'm parked. where's keith losier been? he's tuckin 19's on bags, right? anyone got his email addy?

i have air cylinders and i dont think they are all that. they are cool, you can daily drive them, but theres also problems. i was breaking elbow fittings into the cylinders due to too much pressure. my mounting bracket for the rear broke, it was due to a shitty design, my first tank bracket broke because we underestimated the weight. as for what you want to do, front/back/side/side, you want a 4 path kit, you will need 8 solenoids. you also want to place the solenoids as close to the air cylinders as possible so i would stay away from one of those solenoid boxes where they are all connected. quick is 3/8th, fast is 1/2 or bigger. as far as a tank, 6 gallons has done me good, plenty of play time, but be sure to get an adjustable pressure switch. before i had mine, i had a slow leak and i wouldnt have enough pressure to raise the car, but it wasnt low enough to fill the tanks. i bought an adjustable one and set it so everytime i would hit up with a full tank, it would begin filling. i would get 100% cycle duty compressors if you plan on using it alot. all i imagine you would need to fab would be a tank mounting bracket, and mounting bracket for your compressor, and you might need to fab mounting brackets, unless the store bought ones are nice, i have never seen them. if you have any more questions, or want to see pictures of my car, let me know.

(off topic) you and me have the best sig pictures on the board. no one else has a cool picture of their car in motion.

Stay away from Firestone compressors and AIM cylinders. Viair 100% duty compressors are the way to go. Some like the Thomas compressors.

There's alot of helpful topics in the suspension forum at www.streetsourcemag.com .
