But you are wrong about UAS giving you the versatility to set the lowest height. If you plan to use your factory struts or KYB or Bilstein or anything along those lines you'll only have the adjustable of the bag. since Air Force has adjustable sleeves you have much more adjustable to set it. Technically you can even set it lower then the car can even handle if done right. If you only get a system that is UP and DOWN then your car will look like a 4x4 (higher than stock) fully inflated and pancaked when parked. Unless you buy additional pressure sensors and height controller. I would opt for one with a digital read out so you can actually see how much pressure is in each bag. The Air force one controls and tells you how much pressure from the LCD remote.

There are quite a few members running the Air Force/K-sports kits but you just gotta look. Here is another review

Ya I did read you review. I already have Megan coilovers which I will use with the UAS system.

I think our only option is UAS, but correct me if I am wrong. I dont think those companies make Air Suspension Kits for our AWD.

I jacked up my car today to spin up the car a little. I couldn't take the UCA slamming the top of the fender anymore!

Guess what I found... A busted upped ball joint hanging on by a thread. Thankfully I did this because scrapping a wheel would suck since they are only 1 week old!

I'll have it fixed tomorrow and I will order my air ride this week...

So in a few weeks I will have wheels, pulled and flared rear fenders, Carson kit and air ride...

Hopefully she comes out well...

2JZ is a little extreme for me. I'm hunting a deal for my uas right now...

After this my next mod is a 1970-73 Cuda! Hahaha
