what are you guys talking about? :?


haha. i PMed him and told him i could help him out with anything he needs. i just like joking around in the threads since i thought everyone knows about my air suspension since i talk about it in every other post.

seriously, if anyone has any questions about air or how to approach putting air suspension on a scion and what is safest or cheapest or lowest, let me know. since i did the purchasing of the parts as well as the labor with my friend, i know how the whole process works.

me too! i always hear about people having airbags, but so far the only ones i've seen are the one quick was working on and xAonair. and those aren't xBs.

i think the xB guys on air are ashamed to post pictures because they can't get as low as me. oh, snap. sounds like a challenge, guys. let's see those xBs on air!! maybe i'll see some at sema.

OK OK OK~
We had enough of Mr. Eric about his "BAGS"
Lets wait for Red Genie's xB on "CANS" (But that might be a year away for my CANOVERS to arrive)

i am on cans though... in the front. i think i'm the only one so far. everyone else is on strut bags. and i might convert to cylinders in the rear in the future. did you guys know that air cylinders use 1/3 less air than bags? i just haven't done it yet becayse SMC cylinders are expensive and i refuse to use cheap parts when suspension is involved.

also, when you run cylinders, you don't need to use a shock because the cylinder acts as a shock absorber.

Default cans?

what are cans?...i know what strut bags are and i know what cylinders are ...but cans?...please explain......anyways, my friend has cylinders on his 4 door civic, and he can make that thing hop!....i really like the idea of cylinders, but i just wanna go with what will bolt directly on , so i don't have to do any drastic mods to the suspension...ie welding, cutting etc.(i still have a few years left on my payments )
