The air ride is IN!

After a few months of tinkering, re threading, and waiting for stuff to come in the mail, its in. All thats left is the rear brackets to drop it lower than it can go @ the momment.


Take a look @ my setup here:

Opinions welcome!

Can you drive it that low?

It looks clean. Wouldn't shoot for that as one of my first "mods", but I've never seen a Lancer on bags. WOW. Good job man!

I actually purchased the setup off of Ozlancerlunatic. Paid 1500$ for everything. I had to throw in about 300 bucks for new fittings, gauges, new switchbox, hoses, gauge pillar, etc. I got a steal for this custom setup. Only thing it really needs is a better compressor to fill/build up pressure a bit faster.

I had to reassemble the front bags due to a few leaks, but that was cake. Still waiting on a few custom fittings for the front... Ill have more pics shortly for u guys. I would do a video, but I dont have a second air compressor tank to hook up. Ill run out of air pretty quickly.

What my car used to look like:

and how it used to perform:

The last vid was when I ginnie pigged the NEX SS coil overs, as no one would buy them.
