Air Ride!!!
I am looking to buy an Air Ride Kit. Does anyone know who sells them here in Canada?
I don't need to worry about the install, its a piece of cake. But I DO need to find a good quality kit from someone local.
Who has some connections for me?

Rep Power: 0 Would the actual rubber air bags handle the harsh Canadian winters???? 
I remember hearing about the bags tearing and stuff if abused... i.e. hopping up 'n down alot, and when turning, the bags twist... Add the weather, and salt, and whatever else, and it could be bad???

Rep Power: 368 Most (but not all) bag kits aren't made to withstand daily driving, let alone Canadian winters. There IS a shop in Scarberia that does this kinda thing, I'm waiting on my friend's response as for its name and location, and I imagine being located in Canada that they would have something at least a little more durable than the run-of-the-mill stuff.

Rep Power: 0 Yes you certainly do!!! lol.
I've made a few changes to my ride as well. I painted my headlight housings gunmetal, LED signal bulbs, I have a downpipe and a catback on the way too! No cat baby!!

Rep Power: 0 Hey CoupeStylz, you gonna use the header you bought? Just downpipe and no cat? I guess you're not worried about emmissions then. Or r u gonna have it so you can just unbolt your straight pipe and bolt on a cat at the bottom?

Rep Power: 0 well If i pick up an ex high flow cat then I can just swap it back in. Otherwise I'll have to swap the whole thing back to stock in 1 3/4 years when it's time for my next e-test. As far as getting pulled over and fined by a cop, I'm not too worried. I think the probability of that happening is pretty low in this area, plus I would just tell them that the "high flow cat" (a resonator) is a real working one. What are they going to do? jack my car up on the road and rip it apart to inspect it? Another option is to get someone to weld in a universal high flow cat.
Until then, I'm going to enjoy polluting the atmosphere and getting better HP and fuel economy.
