Default Hello! & Datasystems ASC 680 -experiences-

Hello there!

My name´s Patrick, I´m from Austria - and I´m new in Lexus (at first, sorry, my english is probably not the best).

In Austria, LS400 and 430 are very, very rare - and I´m glad to get a 2006 president line from a good friend...

I have found the ASC-Controller, and I love it... I´m searching for 430-owners, who have experience with this
Thing - especially with the driveability in different heights...
I´d like to add the LS 20"-rims - but our laws don´t allow any stance changes...

Can anyone tell me, how it runs?

Thank you very much, I hope, I did everything right in my first post...

Regards from small Austria, Country of Mozart and Arnie ^^

Patrick (41)

There have been some run them in the past. However I personally would not run it, the factory air is already problematic. Running one IMO can cause even faster wear to the bags especially if you always have the suspension low. It does what its supposed to do, but the factory compressor is much smaller than say a aftermarket system, so it will be slow to raise and lower and cause added stress to the components.

Default Datasystems ASC680 Air Suspension Manual (English)

Hi All,

We'll, just be pissing around with the Japanese air suspension on my Crown but couldn't find and decent instructions. Datasystems ASC680 Air Controller.

I set aside some time to "loosely" Translate the Japanese Manual to english which seems to give me all the information i needed.

'Im Guessing many of you are having the same problems (going crazy over japanese) trying to figure out the air suspension controller so i have attached the complete DataSystems ASC680 English Air Suspension Controller manual
(in .PDF format) for your viewing pleasure.

Hopefully this manual is helpful to many of you out there, Please let me know how you get on!

Like the post then get the free manual here : https://goo.gl/RW9gY8

Not sure why you embedded a Facebook link that redirects to a Google link that redirects to the real link. The real link is https://www.feildingweather.com/asc6...20English..pdf
