That's awesome! What issues have you had or things have you had to fix over the years? My bumper-to-bumper warranty is about to expire and I am considering extending the warranty due to all the damn electronics. (I could care less about power seats, steering wheel, nav, etc, but I would hate to foot the bill when they break)

Finally finished my AirLift suspension install last weekend and was able to drive the car to work this week and take a few pics of the car on a flat surface.

There are 5 presets that can be "user defined". The below pics show how the car sits in the "preset high" mode that I programmed. This running around 115 psi in the front and 85 psi in the rear. This is 10 psi from the max pressure up front and 15 psi from the max pressure in the rear, so the car sits a bit higher than this in the "All Up" mode. Ideal bag pressures for ride quality according to AirLift are 100 - 105 psi up front and 60 - 65 psi in the rear. I have these pressures set as my "ride" mode and the car sits with the tires almost perfectly flush with the fenders at this setting. I may adjust the shock body lengths just a bit this weekend so I can get the car to sit a tad bit higher without increasing the air pressure any more. I'll post some more pics this weekend of how it sits in the lower modes.

Full review to come with ride and handling impressions after I've had a bit more time with the car.

I think that air setup looks great! Just curious though, what's the plan in the event of a flat tire? I wonder if run flats would be worth the peace of mind.

My 2010 G37S, 6mt sedan. Just a touch over 66k miles now. I did the 60k service not too long ago and went ahead and installed the Injen Short Ram Intake system, which sounds amazing. Put a new JWT clutch and lightweight flywheel in it earlier this month, along with the HD CSC and a new master cylinder. Absolutely love it, as I really didn't like the OEM clutch. Apart from those things, it's totally stock... for now.

Cool shot right there w/ the ghosting of the motor bay




SupraOfDoom, might look at Tein Basis Z coilovers, they have the spring rates that are closest to stock so shouldn't take away too much from your stock ride.
