Actually, the Type-S TL could be called a 3GS if you want since it's basically the "faster, more optioned" equivalent to iPhone 3GS compared to the 3G iPhone lol

I'm jus curious in why ya are quick so say no to a air ride system on a TL...I figured being able to drop or raise your car anywhere and anytime would be super convenient...but I'm sure wouldn't understand where I'm coming from with that since the roads down south are much smoother not like New York where the roads are riddled wit pot holes...and I'm sure ya also wouldn't understand since ya don't have to worry about snow like I do. Try Living in New York for a while and I'm 100% sure you would understand Its not a bad Idea before your so quick to judge the Idea

I'm still considering one piece coils but I wanted to see how much the kits will run me...I'm Jus hesitant to deal with coils in Ny cuz these roads are a headache. That's why I needed a legit site to see how much the kit is gonna run me so I can weight out my options....yu kno the pros and cons

your going to have to learn to ignore the comments made by others because then it will just turn into a big argument over the interwebz

KSport, Accuair, AirRunner.

I recommend KSport; it's affordable.

There is a member, jjz626, selling a brand new one in the box, in the Black Market. I believe he still has it up for grabs. Just though you wanted to check it out.

^boohoo.

and who is to say that we're all mature enough to post intelligent thoughts?
typing is tricky, because you can come off as an asshole without even trying.

post #22 is spot on.
learn to ignore.

thanks for stating this justin...as i was giving a legit opinion (or so i thought?) about there being no need for such a modification (imo) given my experience in similar conditions. certainly being a "dick" was not my intentions there. so certainly if i came off that way to the OP--my apologies.

not trying to hijack...back to the thread...

i really dont get why the OP is garnering so much hate, or why so many people are totally against air for this car... a lot of ignorant people posting in here. Airrunner and Ksport both make kits, and both are being used by at least one member on the boards. VIPTL can tell you about his experience with Ksport, and its definitely the more affordable option. Airrunner, has a very good reputation, and rodneycc would be the user on here with the most experience.

I think air suspension is awesome. If the TL wasn't my daily driver, I would gladly buy an air set-up.

Warning to all on this thread.

Obviously, ggesq's subtle comments weren't understood by everyone. I'm not going to be so subtle.

Let's get back to the OP's original question and quit having such thin skin, everyone.

JohnBlack, there is a multi-quote button in the lower right hand corner of each thread (the middle icon). Use that to answer more than one person's comment in one reply.


Cheers!

i would think that air ride is more geared towards daily driving, especially if you live in an area where driving as low as you want is reasonable. You can still achieve the look you want, with the convenience and adjustability to drive around at a less concerning ride height
