Unfortunately, Skipper buys into the whole "Dub"-ghetto-bling-bling-wannabe-rapstar thing...you can tell...they put Giovanna's on their car and Brabus on their car...see, even in Japan they can have bad taste!

The Air suspension would be good for going up driveways and such if you really want to slam your car but traditional systems gave pretty crappy rides...the new Canover systems (and possibly, their system) should ride better...

You looking to do those on your LS?

Air Sus. is cool so long as:

1) You can NOT do 3-wheel motion
2) You can NOT "hop" the car
3) It's not made by APC
4) You use it at a FLAT intersection just to "impress" people...

Hehehe...speaking of that, I was in Beverly Hills sippin' some tea and I saw some LOOSERS doing that at a interection in Beverly Hills in their old *** and BROKEN looking Legend (the 2nd gen)...they thought they were SO cool and everyone that saw it was thinking "what a bunch of idiots"...you could tell by the looks on their faces...it would have probably impressed some 12 year old girls in Whitter though...

manaray, while I do not condone this suspension at all, they do make "fast bags" and with enough air stored in the tanks you CAN hop your car.Now its just a question of why you would want to I guess.

ya if i had a LS430 i would definaltyu look into an air bag system, reason being i would wnat to slam the car with a crazy VIP kit that sits less than an inch of the ground and we all know how drivable that is!!

also if u had a really low car 3 wheeling and hopping owuldn't even be a possiblity (all though those idiots would still try and end up crackign their fiberglass )

Believe it or not I can remember some guy moron trying to look cool in a LS 400 with giovannas in front of a home depot with suspensions like that.

The rear was slammed 1 inch to the ground and the front was rasied like 5 or 6 inches then normal height and that guy was so cool that he slouched back in his seat with one hand on the steering looking through the rear side window of his LS. what a foolio
