http://www.houseofscion.com/catalog/...roducts_id=167 Is this any good.

I am looking for something so when my buddys come in the car it does not dip. Every time I go down a dip my body kits the ground and scratches. My friend is going to loose weight but till then I would like some suspension and shocks etc.
I am googling and looking at the forum but it is not what it am looking for.

 

I'm guessing you may have to go with a coilover kit ... such as Ground Control with custom higher rate springs (Figure in your weight and your friends weights). Maybe 300lbs/in Fronts and 350/in Rear? I'm just taking a wild guess.

That means that if your coilover kit is on the stock height setting, it'll take more weight to make the springs compress. But if you go with the custom rate springs, your strut/shocks will not be able to dampen the higher spring rates effectively .

Are you on stock springs????? Or are you lowered?

 

Every thing is stock. I have to re get my body kit since it scratched badly from diping. What ever it is I need to get, coil over shocks etc to make me get higher off the ground by few inches and softer or what ever it is I need.

Maybe someone else can chime in on this subject ... I don't know if coilovers can be set to be higher than the stock height ... i'm guessing they can .. but not by much///

 

Yea if some one can help that would be awesome. Thanks again girls and other guys.

 

?!?

 

Air suspension ... you can run more PSI with more weight in the car and maintain the same height as without the weight ... it will be slightly stiffer though

 

How long will air suspension last?

 

Who makes it?

It will last as long as the quality of the install and the maintenance. I pieced together my whole suspension setup, with bolt on parts and a combination of air management that i would need for what i wanted.

It's a very broad thing, it just depends on exactly what you want. My whole setup costed me around $1500 for a full FBSS (8-valve) setup. The price includes Cusco camber plates from Japan which were $285. Check this thread:

I just don't want to keep geting hit when taking dips in my car. Maybe coilovers and springs is all I really need?

 

Coilovers aren't going to raise your ride height, but they can dampen the "dips" better and keep your suspension travel limited if they're set right ... which means you won't bottom out.

I drive LOW with my bags and i drive on rough roads and don't bottom out ... i don't have a kit but i can't imagine your kit being lower then my stock body parts when you're at stock height and i'm probably 3" off the ground up front and my exhaust in the rear is like 3" from the ground too ... i do run my fender liners though, but that's a different story

 

Something like this ? http://www.houseofscion.com/catalog/...roducts_id=128 or http://www.houseofscion.com/catalog/...roducts_id=126
