hey everybody, i was just wondering if anybody knew where i could get some hydrolics done for my car (sounds a bit ricey but yeah lol have always wanted them since i saw the first F&F from the Del Sol)

not just where i can get them done but also how much i would be looking at paying...

i am interested in the kind of system that like i don't know acts like air suspension but can crank it up at speed bumps and fully dump it when parked and can have like a three stage height level... one that moves from side to side as well just like the Del Sol not like just up and down, i apologise for sounding as if though i have no idea what i am talking about but to be honest i don't know what i am talking about which is why i am posting here, just wondering if any of you guys have had any experiences with a system of such and you know how much $ i would be looking at spending..

brand new or second hand doesn't bother me,
and by the way the car is a '92-'95 Honda Legend Sedan

if that helps? any information would be greatly appreciated, thanks

Andy

im told they sell the airbag shocks at wilkinsons, fully legal, permitable, like a standard strut with an airbag on top. u have a controller in the car that u crank up and down
not sure what they r like performance wise but have a look

hydrolics are illegal as far as i am aware so u get stickered then you gunna have a HELLLLL of a time getting it over pits.
air suspension isnt too bad u can jack it up n down quick enough to get over speed bumps etc etc. u CAN get staged levels but it costs more. generally u get a controller that moves each corner or all up all down kinda thing
my setup has front n back side to side plus each corner can move. orr all up all down

yeah , i had air bags quoted for my 89 Toyota hilux, from wilkinson suspension, around $7, 500, bul**** . the initial kit is only around $1,200 but the big cost is in engineering certificate and obvioiusly labour as to have it fitted to my car the have to cut 3/4 of the tray out and weld a C section frame in . to much effort i`d say.better off spending 7,500 on a bull**** motor.
