good job

 

.

 

Nice so hows it ride.

 

nice. I love it .

 

I can't believe that place is like 40 miles from me. Just getting into this restoration thing so I am learning all the time. Great car and great article.

i heard that if u bag your car u'll get alot of wheel hop during a burnout unless u jack it up all the way and that it's not a performance item but for show. is that all true Kandied?

 

im not Kandied, but i know thats only true if you do it improperly. most of the air suspension myths and "facts" are from people that didnt know what they're doing... much in the way someone would say "carbs suck" if they didnt know how to tune one. just because you bolt it on, doesnt mean its working right.



anyhoo.... Kandied... pics of the strut, and where/how they mounted a tank, compressor and valves in a thirdgen without it lookling like crap.

 

i second that, i wanna see the uncensored pics of the car . I wanna see where they mounted the valves and controls. We never get to see many pics of your car besides the outside. Lets see that interior and how everything is mounted.

 

.

 

even with the valves in the back, i doubt you want a quicker rise time with the big red valves.. right?

the quicker it is, the more touchy....

 

just curious when you say pricey, how much did it go for? perhaps i'll do it next.

 

.

 

man..the stance is amazing....

This is definently something I'm really insterested in getting done....Kandied...do you know who I could contact to get something set up?....I'd just like to get some more information on it...and who would be able to install the system...

We bagged my brothers truck, it had some wheel hop during burnouts when he had his 2 link setup, We fabbed our own 4 link setup and no wheel hop even all the way layed out, Hes laying it on rockers right now, His setup has 10 switches, can control each corner individually and side to side, front to back, etc.

::Edit:: Also I would recomend atleast a 3/8 line setup, a 1/4 inch line setup is hella slow in my opinion. My brother is running 1/2 inch lines on his now, and thinking of upgrading to dual port bags

 

.

 

Good point, If you just want adjustable height 1/4 would be good... My brother has pressure switches on each corner for height adjustment. When he turns them on, it will only raise to the exact ride height he wants...With the pressure switches off he can drop it to the ground or to full height at the flip of a switch

 

Damn man your camaro looks bad *** really clean

 

.

 

if and when I go with an air ride system...I don't want anything fancy....just something to set my ride height at shows...so I can lower it and raise it up....are there systems like that available? I really don't need one that goes side to side or anything like that....

 

if anyone in ontario canada is interested, i spoke to a guy in peterborough at darknights that will do our cars (bagged) for a decent price...

if my motor doesnt kill my funds the airbags will be done before the camaro nationals next year..

i love the stance jeff although it looks like you are a tad higher...

whats the height adjustment that you have?

the one im goin with drops the car 6 inches/... from stock height..

iroc2nv

 

Damn how u gonna drop that low iroc.

 

thats all i would want , just something to lower it real low at shows and then to a reasonable ride height when your driving around.

Jeff I swear - I think of you as more of a celebrity than a simple TGO member... heheheh

 

.

 

I know a guy locally that wanted the fastest possible change for his bagged truck so he upgraded his lines and converted to Nitrogen. Man I swear his truck is nuts, goes up and down WAY fast. But hey this guy is also crazy, he runs dual 12 gal tanks and sets it to dance in the parking lot for like 10 minutes while everyone trips out.

 

.

 

I was thinking about trying something like this but was/am a little about the ride quality it's funny b/c this is the compay i've been emailing and gathering info from......

 

Yeah Im goin to a show like that this weekend, East Coast Nationals car and truck show, we're convoying there with about 30 vehicles on air, 15 not..Once truck has 19 inches of lift from his bags in the fron in the front...CRAZY!! 19 inches in the air to the ground in secs...They have dragging contests and air dancing contests etc too...Goin to this show is what made me fall in love with air suspension...Had it on my bug a month after this show 3 years ago!!

 

pimp flip

 

What does a truck on hydros have to do with bags or air suspension?

 

what does anything really have to do with anything on this forum
i just thought it was funny

anyone have hydros? =D

 

.

 

Kandied,

Do you have any pics of your car with the rockers on the ground? I will try to take one of mine.

 

.

 

Damn that exhaust is low do you have long tubes.

 

I can't even drive over speedbumps with 17" wheels on my car because the exhaust will scrape.....

 

.

 

Sounds like a nice setup tho and that would be plenty low enough for me.

 

.

 

oh yea! i saw that mag! congrats i cant beleive you painted it 4 times!!!!!

 

.

 

hey kandied can you take a pic of your car with it sitting all the way down....im kinda curious to see how low it will sit when all the air is let out...

 

Hey Jeff, just thought I'd letcha know your car in CHP makes a nice wallpaper for my cubicle!

 

.

 

LMFAO

thats gotta be the funniest **** I've ever seen. And they cheered. But yes, hydraulics is another subject man. That's why we dont refer to wheels on TGO as "Bling Bling."

 

I got one of mine on rockers. I know it isn't a third gen.
