Default What is this?
Ok -I took a picture of the Sema CCS-R car and what I assumed was probably some sort of shock/ coilover suspension air adjustment valve located near the Logo.




I have scoured the internet for and explanation and no one has mentioned this or pictured it.

Any guesses?

I didn't even think of air lifts! You're probably right, cause its situated way beyond the strut tower.

It's an air jack fitting. Hook it up to a compressed air system and it lifts the car.

Sheesh. That is NO joke. Possible to get this done on non-race cars? And at what cost?
