in car adjustable height

[WDoherty]

I was looking online at a video of jay leno's new vette, c6rs? and it had a computer and manual controlled air suspension that he could raise the front height to go up ramps, over speed bumps and then lower for best performance. is there any aftermarket like this for the sc/supra?

Air bags? That would do it... but espensive.

You can get damper adjust with Tein EDFC obviously.

Yeah I was thinking Tein EDFC

I'm interested in this too for my GT40 project, but haven't found anything really suitable yet.

Lots of lowrider kits out there, but nothing that I'd want to use for a streetable racecar.

As Andrew mentioned, the Tein EDFC only controls the dampening of the system - it doesn't affect the ride height at all.

actually i just found an air suspension system for the sc for 2300, but it is not electronically controlled, but you can use it with whatever struts or several coilovers and can drop and raise the car. Don't know how the handling would be though.

best bet, allows you to stay as low as u like 99% of the time with the ability to just lift the car up for a second for those stubborn speedbumps and driveways

not cheap tho...

Found these guys too, with a design similar to Roberuta's, but not as expensive:

Or, you can do what many are doing now. Using the Universal Air Suspension bag with your coilover.

Here is a picture of mine. UAS bags w/ Tein CS v1 coilovers. Height adjustable to get it dialed into your driving style. It can handle on rails or be super soft, depending on where I position the bag on the coilover.

Custom brackets will be needed to work with whichever coilover you choose.
