thanks for the feedback. i know some will appreciate it, but most won't like it. true, hydraulics and air suspensions aren't a craze anymore for sure. however, in Hawaii, air suspension has become very popular around the VIP crowd. Over here, imitating Japan "bippu" style is what a certain number of Lexus, Infiniti, and Acura drivers are trying to do. To imitate VIP style, we tend to go with aggressive wheel widths and offsets, stretch the tires, run authentic Japan bodykits, ride on air suspension, and add accessories like curtains, pretzels, and champagne bottle holders for example.
The system we use is made by a Japan company called AirRunner. You can check them out at http://www.airrunner.co.jp/ . Retail begins at around $4,000 for most kits. The guy in Hawaii who is the authorized dealer has already done over 30 kits on cars like GS's, LS's, TL's, TSX's, Q45's, Scions, Accords, and even a 350Z.
Ride height is adjustable by about 6 inches. i've included pictures of my gf's car at "ride height". true... there's no way anyone could ride with it at full slam.
this is definitely a different kind of taste that most people aren't gonna feel at all. i just thought i'd post up pics to share with the rest of y'all what other people around the world like to do with perfectly nice cars.
All the cars pictured here are riding on AirRunner suspension.
same with the 3 GS's parked to the right of my gf's car...
