16v abf, yeah boy

Duby, If you want to get it done, get it done in the UK. There's less BS to put up with. Make sure when you import it, you have the V5 with the new engine number. That way, the engineer can't f' you over when it comes time for rego. From my understanding, you won't need to compliance it as it is a personal import (12+months ownership), but I'm not sure how airbags stand with engineers. Alot won't do it as the ride height can be altered while the vehicle is moving. IF you can get something that disables the settings once moving, that should be fine. But less and less engineers are going to engineer bags as it's a huge heap of BS with the RTA and them!

Ask me how I know!

the system I'll be running has 3 basic settings, 4x4 mode, driving mode and park mode, put your key in the ignition and it raised to drive mode, push a button and go to 4x4 mode or stance, then you have mechanics mode which basically means you disconnect the key pad (1 lead) and ever time you put the key in the ignition the car goes to safety 4x4 mode, as well as that you can play with individual corner settings to get the 3 pre-set heights you want and its a self levelling unit which works on the same basis as xenons on modern cars,

bottom line is once you have the hight you want it monitors itself to maintain it, put weight in the boot, it pumps up, passenger sits down it pumps up, passenger leaves it drops down, no fat chicks stickers will not be needed on the car, it compensates.lol

A lot of hot rodders are starting to move into Air Ride... Might be worth searching for a supplier from their market.. I'm sure there would be one in Sydney.


Nice looking car, dude.

The same air ride would be perfect for your caddy, mines standard as I tend to work on building sites, just think how cool that would be 9" drop, no prob, have to pick something up and load it, simple, just touch the go button.

This as close as it's getting to air ride



in fact, I'll have to send you my portfolio to see if there is any work I can help with,,,,,,,lol

Spent all of saturday playing with the car getting it ready for early edition and all was good, Shakey carried on with the new boot build and I added a mod which means when I finally get to sydney this year I can go from road to drive without loosing all of the underside of the car,

Boot build pictures to come, to say I'm chuffed is an understatement, more carbon on the car and I think we might have finally cracked how it sits, those pictures to come after the weekend together with others who attend.
