Aftermarket cockpit adjustable airspring system

Anyone seen this? http://www.praxissystems.com/product...p_applications
Aftermarket variable rate airspring system for the WRX (initially), adjustable from the driver's seat.

Look for hydraulic adjustable coilovers soon from most of the major makers. Having a Tein Flex with the EDFC plus the hydraulic height adjustment would allow a total control from the drivers seat of all suspension tuning. A'pexi also has hydraulic adjustable sway bars for a few cars which may spread to other applications also.

Hmmm. I can view the entire site in Mozilla (my usual browser), no problem, but no form of it will open in IE. Strange. Perhaps M$ is attempting to corner the market on airsprings as well ! Seriously, it's fine in Moz, don't know why it doesn't work in IE, maybe a kink on the other end they'll work out in a day or 2. Anyway as designed for the WRX (only application so far) it provides 3 spring rates, stock, stiffer, stiffer yet. Frankly with the crummy roads around here given a choice of 3 rates I'd prefer softer than stock, stock, firmer tahn stock.

i read something like this but with TEIN springs. it was in a japanese EVO magazine, it said u could adjust the actual spring rate and not just have several settings like the one on the link.

Well at least that's something! I'd like to see more about the Tein system.

I'll dig up the picks. HKS, Tein, and few others had preproduction units at the TAS.
