I saw their YouTube video, didn’t know if another company already developed an application for our car. I thought it was pretty neat.
Because with springs, you get to keep the active dampening, as you’re keeping the stock struts. If you remove the struts (specifically a connector that controls the active dampening) the car will throw a chassis warning message. Personally, I don’t think coilovers is worth seeing that message every time the car is turned on. Will the car be able to handle being lowered with the stock setup? Yes but, an alignment is a must after you install your coilovers/springs if you don’t want uneven tire wear.
What about the coilovers that embed into the stock system, even with active dampening, will you still get a CEL?
Does it raise the height of the car on the fly?
No it just adjusts the ride stiffness between sport and normal mode when you click the sport button inside the car.
This is the video that made me create this post. I think this system is more rigid and grounded than bags but of course, I can be wrong. I don’t think they make it for our cars yet but when they do, I’ll be the first to grab it. I actually live in a hilly area and I would like to make the car higher than stock in some situations.
Do you just want validation for getting bags? Did you not read the first post, I do not want bags nor do I see the point of them on performance cars.This thread is dumb ? just get bags if you want so much on the fly adjustment (I have bags for the record). Or get coils if you want to go the track. I highly doubt most of you are going to run coils so low that you have to be genuinely worried about damaging anything. If you scrape on your driveway or something some driver mod is a much better fix than some arbitrary $6000 adaptive automatic suspension system
Looooool no, I don’t. I was trying to let you know I have a little perspective into both sides of the coin. I did read your first post, actually. I made a suggestion in one of the first replies about Coilovers with aircups on them.. do you want to take a guess on what the “Ilift” system you just said you liked is?
Yes, I've owned two show vehicles ('95 Civic Coupe and '05 Lexus IS300), civic slammed with coilovers on the ground that I had to drive diagonally into the driveway to get into the car show. Please save me your insecurity about airbags which again, I acknowledged and said I didn't want.
I'm sure you're aware that some super cars come with an actuator system that lifts the car on the fly when needed, that was my original inquiry, if our cars had that aftermarket option available to them? That's it, nothing more, nothing less.
