does anyone have air ride on their 7th gen civic? Im toying with the idea, because I'm in love with the idea of changing your ride height at the touch of a button...anyway, the thing is, I haven't heard of anyone with these, so if you do, how much did it run you? ($) And how's your ride quality?

there are i think 3 members or so that have air......a couple with bags and i know one that has air rods. This winter i am doing adjustable suspension......but not sure with which combo. Either bag struts on the front with bags on the rear or air rods. Air rods will lay better than bag struts and use less air/nitrogen than bags. But bags will ride better than rods. I am also going with nitrogen instead of air cuz IMO, nitrogen rides better plus i don't want noisey compressors that take up space in my trunk. You also have to decide if u want a fast or slow set up. The price isn't much different, but i like fast cuz i wanna be able to bang switches. The set-up with installation will run u about $2,500. Also, i am going with a 10 valve set-up which will also give me dog leg, which is awesome. But the best thing to do is talk to your local shop and ask them what they think is best.

spanky is selling his kit for 1400 i think. it retails for over 2200. ya they range around the 2,000-2,500 mark.
n not sure what the above guys talking about when he says fast bags are almost the same price as a slow setup. big difference in price. fast bags require bigger lines/solenoids. and as for nitrogen? you have enough money to keep refilling them? alot of times people will run both, run air for daily driving and nitro when they want to have fun(you can get off the ground with this).

no no, i didn't say that they are almost the same, i said that there isn't much difference. A fast set-up will run u maybe a couple hundred more (at the most), but is well worth it imo. And as for filling the tanks......my car isnt' a daily driver and i won't go air cuz i don't like noisey compressors and i need room for my stereo set-up. I am gonna prolly go with (2) 141 cu in tanks. And as far as getting off the ground......BAD !!! I would never hop a unibody. I would only hop hydros on vehicles that have reinforced frames. I know one kid that hoped his bagged s-dime that was notched, bridged and reinforced and cracked his frame.
