The data system controller is nice but the rate on which it airs up and down is way to slow for my liking.... so next on order is a twin tank/ twin pump e-level system ( saving some truck space and ****)

Data system gonna be for sale soon if anyone is interested

Thanks man, check out the new pics... to answer your question this specific car came with the factory air system (not all ls460 come with it), so all i did was buy the data system control module to have ride height adjutability.

I just saw your car on the other photo thread, looks sick man , these cars go perfectly with the brushed aluminum faced wheels and 22's are mandatory, very well done.

And thanks for the info on the air set up, im thinking of getting a 460 so I have a lot of questions lol

The body shop aint wire those up I did, well i mean the plugs are the same, they just have two extra wires. I de pined them from the connector ran the wires and then there is a box under the driver side where one can tap into the left and right signals. If you really need to know where let me know ill look into it again....
