i just youtubed the speed of this thing in action... my question, is there a way to speed up the process. like larger valves for more air or something? it said it took 3:30 mins to go from highest to lowest setting.
anybody have any other vids of their data system controller in action. thanks!

as for speeding it up, i read on a previous post on here that someone did attempt this with like aftermarket air tank and bags or struts or something... anyways in this post the guy said he ended up spending like a grand, then having it fail within a few days cuz he didn't replace everything just some stuff which ruined the stock parts, then he said he just spent more money to replace the remainder of the stock parts, which was expensive and a lengthy process.
so my thinking on this was either replace the whole thing at once or nothing... just my opinion though.

i think you should ask is anyone not having problems with it 
i think we all have a few small issues. mine likes to constantly adjust on it own while driving, especially when there is a load in the back seat.

haha thanks for the reply. i've read about those problems but i was talking more along the lines of decreased life of the air bags, compressor.....
would it be worth it to get this instead of say a air force or UAS kit?

Can I somehow "fast reset" the controller and the suspension? I lift up my car to (normal mode) last weekend, when it rains 8inches snow.
Now the car is awry to passengerside and it looks really stupid.
the shock absorbers is okay.
and once again sorry my bad english

if your height is uneven due to the stupid (i mean really awesome) datasystems controller the only thing that i have found to fix it is to hit the left down button to have it flash at you to change all 4 of the height settings then put it up 1 or 2 (right side up button) then hit the left bottom button again to lock in the setting. once it has adjusted to this new height and stopped flashing, then reverse the process to set it back at your original lower height setting. once it stops this usually puts them back in sync... also make sure the car is on flat level ground..
this is why i really hate my UL w/ controller... sometimes mine gets all out of sync and it is annoying to fix...
also to reset it all together if you hold the left up button down while the car is off hold the button down and then turn the car on... this puts it back to the first screen where you have to select the celsior > mc choice (if you have an 04-06 ls430) (in japanese it looks something like this """"""" UCF31MC]" セルシオ """""""" then you can select super down mode or regular down mode...
also i used to unplug the smaller plug out of the back and leave it unplugged for a minute or two with the car running and all 4 valve corners will flash then i would plug it back in and raise it up one and then lower it down one to try to get all 4 even again.
good luck man.
