Official 3rd gen GS air ride thread
Thanks for the response. I guess the next question is airrex/air runner type setup or uas over bc/megan/tein? or does that all come down to preference? I'm more or less concerned about reliability as it is my DD. Test drove a 460L today and it was smooth as fuark compared to my 430, but that is to be expected lol.
I would personally opt for the airrex, because with UAS bags, a full pancake will need about 1:30s before you can get your car fully up again.
I don't know how long Airrex has been around, or the reliability of their struts are, but I hear nothing but great things with BC Racing coilovers.
I've also got a plus that my BCR struts can be refurbished in one day tops, as I live next to one of their centers.
As far as comfortability, I see people loving their Airrex and hopefully I will have a chance to get a ride in someone's car w/ airrex installed. For my UAS+BC Racing? I am DD'ing my car, it's my only means of transportation and I can't find anything more reliable so far. On #3 settings, I've notice the ride is more bouncy on deep dips and on #2 setting, I feel almost nothing on the road at all, but it's a little lower. I would take that into consideration if you want to compare to an LS600h. Road noise is more there compared to the LS460 though i'm sure, but I feel like i'm riding on clouds w/ my air suspension setup compared to the OEM setup.
Hope this helps!
On another note.... Just an install with all the parts laid out like in MY trunk? I was charged $900, that's WITH the Accuair E-Leveling arms.... without it, the labor charge would have been 700-750.
If he getting the uas system then probably cost more for installation but if he goes with air runner or any other bolt on kit then installation should be pretty easy ! I can finished bolt on kit for half a day !

That's what other shops were asking. When I called Mike (not the one in Cali, the one in Texas), I was told 900$ was a stellar deal, especially since he charges in the upper regions of $2k for install..... That's including a whole trunk layout done and everything though probably.
That's a pretty basic kit though, isn't it? Just front up and down and rear up and down?
[QUOTE=XxGoKoUxX;8132364]I don't think it's the UAS system being expensive, The UAS system is just a set of bags with brackets, the custom work to MAKE the brackets and bags altogether is where the money's at. I was charged no extra for the UAS end. I was only charged extra for the Accuair ]
Oh so uas kit is pretty much bolt on system then ! Sorry i haven't see any uas system first hand before ! Well let get back on the OP subject : so the fair price for installation cost is around $1K - $2K depend on which system u go with !! If u can't diy then my suggested is go with reputation shop GL

Hi Guys, I'm loving this thread!
I just committed myself to purchase an airforce-sus universal kit from taiwan and will be going air suspension as soon as i get them.
http://www.airforce-sus.com/product.htm
I have a questions for the experts here. Because the Airforce-sus universal kit only comes with front and rear adjustments using paddles. Would it be possible for me to incorporate the AccuAir Air Management package w/touch panel? So that i will eventually have controls of independent strut height as well as autolevelling?
Kindly advise. Thanks.

Hey guys just wanted to hit yall with a quick update on pics since im on air too ^__^ I ended up getting side tracked on picking up that accuair setup by getting a lip kit, and blacking out my headlights. Mainly because I can't decide how I want my trunk to look like. I've seen so many dope builds with hard lines and all that I cant decide! ughhhh.. I wanna do it right the first time.
