This car DO NOT have air force suspension nor does this company have the rights to use this image. This particular car has the Universal Air Suspension bag/coilover setup.

Please take this image down immediately. Thank you

I was being very optimistic about this product. but to find VIP AutoSalon's LS460 SEMA car being illegally used on their website, may speak CAUTION about the company and their business practice.

Again please take this down ASAP before this is taken to a higher level.

so getting back on track..

- looks like a knock-off Roberuta Cup design
- made in Taiwan
- cannot drive with air in the cups
- basically used to clear driveways and speed bumps
- this is not an air bag
- it is purely a "canover" setup

that means, you drive low and raise up for clearance.

I know for sure that the site is just under construction, BUT that picture should not be used unless they received permission from the car manufacturer. I will contact them about the picture so that they remove it, and replace it with a picture of the GS with the AirForce set up on it.

As far as quality and performance, we have 2 orders confirmed that will be arriving within 8-10 days, so once those sets come in we will be able to accurately guage quality and performance. Keep in mind that MANY of the name brand JDM companies we all deal with these days source their parts from countries other than Japan, so to assume that the products are not of quality based on that alone would not be fair.

anything wrong with the above statements? if it works it works. Think of it as a little friendly competition

Why can't you drive with air in the cups? Only downside I see by doing so is the stiff/bounciness without accumulators for the "cups/cans"...

What else is this system supposed to do? Even with my Hybrid TeinCS/UAS combo, that's all I use it for anyways...well with the occassional side to side with the homies from Santa Ana homez...
