    bump. I have question.

    is there such thing as air adjustable shocks or do these all install over normal shocks?

    If you turn up psi to get higher "spring rate" that also raises the ride height? I'm not trying to slam the car I just want adjustable rates.. but I don't like the idea that the height will go all over the place if i switch from street to auto-x mode. Or is there some sort of double bag thing going on where the rate and height are separately adjustable?

    i prefer boxes, they hold MOAR!!!
    and people only bag vws because most of them are quad baggers these days (you know like a double bagger only twice as bad)

    A bump of epic preportions. I currently have this.



    and i am picking up an E30 today. I am keeping all my management from the gti, just selling off the struts. In any event, has anyone succesfully sent their struts to these guys for modification?

    Thanks,
    Mike

    Has anyone heard about bags failing and getting stuck in a position? Just curious as to how reliable air ride would be for daily driving???

    I like this idea a lot!

    That's a good call. I like it.

    Or the euro fog light switches...
    Or put window switches where the heated seat controls would be.

    [quote=JasonC;1289731]Bumping an old thread. I just came across this bagged e30 on another forum, and remembered about Dan asking about a bagged setup.

    I'm not sure if this would work, but if you could use a two position switch (not sure if that's what its called) like the defrost switch to control up and down, it would be awesome. Have the in position to drop the car and the out to raise it back up.

    Will speak to them in the next few days about how they could go about putting a kit together, but the reality is that in a country of 4mil people, it would in all likelyhood be completely custom.
    Good luck, I'm curious how much it would end up to. Never heard of that company before.
