Default Air Force Cup Kit Suspension

Does anyone use this junk? Is it good? crappy? Awesome to the max?

Who deals them? Are there competitors that make a better/comparable product?

Thanks.

Evan

I have KSport Air suspension for sale in the vendor section. While it is not a cup kit, it is their air bag over a coilover.

Thanks but I'm looking for the cup kit. I want to be able to have coilovers when there is no air in the bags.

I'll get in touch with Platinum VIP. Do you know anyone using their product?

I think the owner and his brother both sport their own kits. its relatively new i think? Anyone else care to chime in? I say just call them. I havent had anything done by them, but from the work they have done they are pretty amazing. i've talked to the ownere, Kennedy(sp?) on the phone and he's pretty cool/nice.

theres 2 people i know here in Perth that run the Air Force cup kit, one with an S15 and one with a 2nd Gen Aristo. both seem happy with the kit and have been running it quite a while though im not sure either of the cars are daily driven (def not the S15).

In the VIP part of this forum there is a detialed post about the Platinum VIP Cup Kit, i emailed them and received quite a bit of information about it which i posted up in there. If you go on their website and email them they will respond quickly in my experience.

there are also Japanese companies like Roberuta that do Bold World air cup kits. i think the Platinum Kit seems very good though if you want a cup kit due to its lack of rubber seals it seem like it would be very durable. it is actually also produced by a Japanese company too, i think Umbrella suspension systems or something along those lines.

i believe the air force kit is a bit older so possibly not as good as the newer Platinum kit but the Air Force kit comes complete whereas i believe the Platinum Kit can come with or without coilovers and you can fit it to the coilovers you already have if you let them know the application.
