your thread came off as, "please do my homework for me."
if you know what you want, as you certainly do with the equipment listed, why not look for the best prices yourself?

why should I take my time out of my day, to look up the equipment you listed to search for deals for YOU?
am I gonna get a cookie out of this?
a blow job?
100 dollars in return?

You seem to already know what you want. Find the part numbers and Google will be your friend.

Justin will also be your friend, for a blow job.

Bags, compressor, tank, air lines *know what size you want*, fittings *alot of these lol* and the most important thing your air management.

Head over to bagriders and contact them, theyre very helpful and they sell full kits also if i remember correctly

I would definitely recommend bagriders. I went to them with a ton of questions that I had and even though they knew I wasn't buying shit, they still answered all of them.




The dude I spoke to was Rali. Cool dude

ksport has air struts for our tsx's, i just ordered mine, my friend has the same struts in his accord and no problems at all and we live in ottawa(home of random ass weather with ALOT of debris on the road AND freezing rain) so if it can withstand that, id say they are pretty durable

Good luck on the bag over coil setup...ive been recommended by 3 shops now that that wont work on our cars. Better off buying brand new air struts. Also with the UAS bags over coils on cars with Mcphearson struts...it is common place that ride height will not be able to go very low..sometimes not even enough to tuck. But this is all theory. No one has really done a bag over coil setup on the CU2 before.

Forjworks makes great brackets for bag over coils, also there was minor grinding done in the front but nothing major. I tuck front and half of the rear and drive 80.

Went UAS bags over megan ez coils... Believe me I'm wiser than that, and why?..because I can, also now I can run any wheel combo, drive how I want when I want where I want how I want. What kind of headaches and problems should I expect to run into? Since you've already bagged your tsx right?

I am interested in seeing the finished set-up. I was told by eight08customs on the airsociety forums that UAS bags would not fit on the CU2, due to the space and width of the bag. However, TSX210 and 09slammedTSX (https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...?t=896063)have gone this route. From what I have seen on instagram, 09slammedTSX had to switch bag sizes due to space, but has it figured out now.

Lol i didnt ask why you bagged your car, my 'WHY' was referring to why did you take it to that shop to do it.

Sorry to take so long to reply... lots of junk happening at home, to say the least. I bit the bullet... the expensive one and ordered a full K-Sport kit. I went with the executive set up for a few reasons - the ride height sensors for each corner is a big one. Also, my wheels should be getting here to the states soon. Waiting on K-sport to finish building up my struts, but I have already got the rest of the kit. The only thing that I will really need, other than a reputable place for install, is the rubber for the wheels.

Sick man. Glad your going air regardless. Best investment of my life. I have no ride height sensors atm because I'm more into the parked look but can still manage at high speed 110+ and hard cornering.

I've searched all over this section of the forum and haven't found much to answer my specific question. I see the people that have done this are doing bags over coils setups, most using the megan coil overs. I have tein SS coil overs and was wondering if that limited the options and what my possibilities would be if that was the case? Also, i know the megan coil overs have a lower drop, so I'm assuming I couldn't go as low? Sorry to thread jack.

you should be just fine man, i have friends using stock struts. Bagriders has threaded brackets for almost most coilovers to keep a clank free ride. you will just adjust the height the lower you lower the bag.

Exciting times... my wheels come in Thursday and struts come in the following day. I still have to order my tires and maybe some lugs, but hopefully should be good to go within a week or two.
