drives cars
I "commuted" in my IS 500 for the first time yesterday. For some context, I work remotely and normally don't have anywhere to which to commute. Yesterday, my teammates and I wanted to meet in person. Atlanta traffic aside, it was a nice little outing!
I should have taken more photos lol.

Which controller and stuff did you use (tanks size, air line size, one or two compressors, 3H or 3P, accuair, airlift,etc) and can you please post up some pictures of your setup? I've been thinking of doing that to our ES350 because my Wife doesn't like the ride (too stiff for an "Ultra Luxury" and I'd have to agree with her). How do you like the ride so far?
Thanks in advance!

WOW!!!!! Your Is is Gorgeous and your ride height stance is on point!

I went w/ the 3H, but didn't install the 3H sensors for now.. So it's basically the 3P system.. I went w/ a 4 gallon tank, 3/8" lines, one compressor and I'm on airlift performance..
Each format is different.. This is for the IS, so I'm not sure how it would differ for the ES, but their website makes it really easy to just put in your make and model and what they suggest for your platform will be spot on for what you need..
The ride is NIGHT AND DAY based on me coming from springs... I had a G35 on coils as well, and this is EASILY the best driving experience I've ever had on a lowered car.. I'd definitely recommend it.. I feel like i can drive normally and not worry about trying to avoid every pebble on the road.

Thank You for the information too! It helps quite a bit for researching. How does the one compressor perform with the larger air lines? Can you Please take a couple of pictures of your lay out in the trunk to see what it looks like and how things are laid out and mounted?
Thanks again!

I also put mine in the garage, and it's not just sitting out on the street exposed to the elements, so I think that will help too..
I had a custom piece made so that I had access to my seat levers and can still lay my seats down, and it also allowed me to put the tank and compressor ALL the way in the back, so I still have access to my spare tire and recouped all of my trunk space...
sizing
placement
carpeting so it looks seamless
compressor added and drilled for tank
all put together
everything installed w/ LEDs and in sync w/ Low Glow System

With the weight of our cars, and me not just airing up and down for no reason, 1 compressor is plenty, and I've not had an issue w/ needing air and not having it.. I want longevity in my system.

Thank You Twall's! Your install looks Great and that one of the things that I like about the IS over our ES, is that you can fold down the back seats (and that you can have the V6 AND AWD in the same package)! The red LED adds a nice touch to the finished product too!
Thanks again!
Thanks again!
So it changes colors w/ the low glow on my car..
Another quality product.. Don't go w/ the ebay stuff..

Finally....nearly three months to the day, I've got her back after vandalism/theft repair. Maybe Valentine's Day was just meant to be : ]. Will have to take a better photo when I go for a longer drive Saturday, but it's looking great! For anyone in the DMV area, highly recommend Dominick at Criswell Collision if you want a writer who will take care of you.

This is one I didn't tackle myself, but most of my mods I did... I let a shop that specialized in suspension installs help me out, didn't want leaks..
