Go have a further look thru the web and see for yourself what I mean by *rip off*

Simply put, I would rather waste my money on this...

...than buy a Airkewled product.

Something you might want to consider while you going to be doing everything else for the A.R system......flip your tie rod ends and get the extension plate that fits to your steering arm, both will help so you don't end up hitting the head of the pan every time you let the car down.

Thank you for the interest in my lil projekt :) Man if only, still collecting parts. The actual build will start soon, the workshop is almost ready. The pan is ready, the hydraulic pedals and Air Ride :flash: is on its way from across the pond. The Porsche rear suspension and vented brakes are here. Need front vented disks and calipers still. Need to build the rotisserie and then the pan work will start. Moving the pedals, front seats, gear lever, heater controls and handbrake lever back by 200mm. Then shorten the rear seat by about same amount. Mounting the new hydraulic pedal assembly for brakes and a new hydraulic clutch on the pan, do all the hard lines and braided wheel lines. Mount the suspension parts, get the rims & tires :drunks: :hangloose:

As of now there are 755 days left to have it done. And that will be pushing it! Planning a road trip, will visit your neck of the woods & you can come along for a spin.....

What speeds can you hit with the A.R suspension before they rip off? Just thought of that, cause you obviously going to put in a engine with a bit of power.
something like this :hangloose: . i met this guy at barry's metal meet. (forgot his name). he's from langebaan, builds hot rodz and seems to know a thing or two about airrides
