you can check out universal airsuspension.com they have stuff there, airlift and chasis teck to name a few, but let me ask you a question how low do you want to go, i have been investigating on the airstrut, its a direct bolt on but it doesnt seem to have the drop that i want compared to the cylinders, take a look at some of the rides on here witch has the airstrut and you see what i mean, but goodluck with your project

no man! he means like "airride" suspension struts. They are fully adjustable at a touch of a switch. It is similar to hydrolics, but with air. Anyways to answer the question, you can call 305-885-0152 and talk to this guy Powder that runs a shop called East Coast Mayhem (www.eastcoastmayhem.net) which is in Medley (by Indian River Road). There's also another shop called Perfect-a-Car on NW 8th street here in Miami. You can also visit websites like www.aimind.com (dont recommend too much, but oh well) and www.the-hack-shack.com.

hey born airstruts is an airbag that goes onto the strut, you can have a double or single or even tripple bag, its cool cause you can be adjustable with a flip of a switch,

hey what they say is if you get airbags your ride will ride lik a caddy, but if you get cylyinders, ride like crap, you can make it ride decent with the air accumallater or something like that , by the way i heard but not experiance bad stuff about the hack shack, like missing parts , and sending wrong parts,, i would check the federal business bureau on any company to see if they have a bad reputation, i know aim indussty does out in arizon, which is another place to buy airstrut, but anyways as for racing with them and taking nice corners i couldnt tell you cause i dont know of anyone who has done it

it doesnt matter what you get cylinders or bags the ride will be the same....you cant put bags on the civic...because it macphereson on the front and it wont work...there are only a couple of cylinders that are GOOD that will work...stay away from any of the rick racer cylinders BE WARE...they suck...Also you'll need compressor tank and valves obviously....you may want to run 1/2 inch line to get faster lift...check out my buddies website...

i know that air cylyinders ride like crap i have a friend who bag a whole lot of trucks, which i personaly driven two of them and they ride like a dream, i dont know if the bags will ride the same as for cars, too bad my friends not in business anymore and living in cali, lucky dude, as for cylinders if you get the accumalator then you should have a decent ride, so they say, but as for bags like i said i would think it would ride good, but wh knows cars are different then trucks then im used too, but u should have the same affect, depending on how much psi you put in your bag, obviously if u let the air out it would suck you would have to fool around with the air to see what is right for you.

ya the front you cant run straight bags cause of how our suspension is. you can use strut bags tho.
the rear, hack shack uses bags over strut. they are soon replacing them with air cylinders all around tho.
there are alot of companies that are making kits for our cars now, check the air suspension thread. i know its long but theres about 5 companies mentioned...
oh and if you want spanky's selling his hack shack setup for 1500. from what i remember it was cylinders in the front, bags in the rear(you can swap them out for free when hack shack releases the cylinders for the rear), 1/2 lines, 2 3 gallon chrome tanks, 4 valves, 100% duty compressor, retails for around 2500.
