Seeing if anyone is running this brand. This is the only brand that makes air for my car. Airrunner doesn't make it, and if they did, thats pretty expensive.
Of if you guys can check out the product if you have never seen it, and let me know.

I'm sick of my custom coilover and shock setup with lots of noise. Also, is anyone able to have good handling with air?

I'm using AirLift/EasyStreet components on mine and have been satisfied with it's performance. If you do have a coilover system already or want to use the factory struts, you might want to look into Universal Air Suspension at their Aero Sport air bags. A couple of members here have already gone that route and it has been effective from what I have heard.

Here are what so of our members think of AIM http://vipstylecars.com/forum/index.php?topic=2961.0

They may say they have an air setup for your car... but they don't. I bet they don't even know that it uses a strut front with the spindle attached to the strut body.... and if you bought the "kit" from them you'd get some sort of a universal unit for the front that you'll eventually realize will never work, and then you get to go through the fun of playing phone and email tag with them for a couple months until they refund your money back, possibly with some sort of a stupid restocking fee for what amounts to their mistake... but you'd be too tired and disheartened with the whole experience that you'd just bite the fee and chalk it up as one to grow on.
Yah... very probable scenario.

Yeah, the kit used to be posted on their site, but not any more. I called them and they said they still carried it.
For the fronts, it said you need to weld because of the one piece front suspension.

I am thinking of trying to see if s13, s14, or z32 front knuckles are the same so I can have a 2 piece front suspension.
What sucks for the rear right now is the top hats from s13/14 are different. I have a top hat from the q45/z32 which I am going to try probably tonight, but I think its the same as my car.


Hm... what to do, what to do.

I wonder if I should sell the car and buy a car that has a bunch of parts already made for it.

I guess after reading the other post that AIM sucks. Good to know. Now I have no idea what I should do. THe last thing I am going to do is call up ground control to ask what is the difference between s13 and z32 coilovers they make. If they are different, I am going to run the z32 stuff so the top hat will be right, and I'll have way less noise and be somewhat satisfied.

Unless someone knows a company that can sells a good set of bags for my car or make me springs or coilovers with shocks done right.

Thanks a lot.
