I'm about to get my first G35 this summer. It's going to be a g35 coupe hopefully a MT. I was wondering what would be a good site to buy complete kits? I followed some links but they were meant for trucks I'm guessing. Sorry if you already posted the link the complete kits and I missed it.

Also, if installed correctly, I hear it would be trouble free for at least a couple of years? Although I read up that I should check up on the bags from time to time

Thanks, any help is much appreciated

the kit i posted is not for a truck at all. its everything you need to bag G35.

there is no way to say whether you are going to be trouble free or not. even if the person that invented this **** installed it, they have no way of saying that an airline isnt going to go bad or that your compressor isnt going to go out or that a valve isnt going to freeze/stick.

You're talking of the kit you posted on the very first page? Is that all the parts you'd need? Sorry I'm new to this :P I'm trying to do a 4-valve air suspension install on my future G

that is everything EXCEPT the fittings. i cant tell you what fittings you need because everyone hooks there kit up regarding valve placement, number of valves size of valves, differently.

what size cups for the rears do you recommend? i have uas aerosport bags. i believe i might have 3-4 inch cups...

does the cups affect how low you can dump it?

does stock shocks with bags and aftermarket shocks/coilovers with bags both dump the same height?

i have a 03 sedan. runnin 19x9.5 all around +27 i believe i can go way lower, when i dump my car all the way down, the rear rims dont even tuck in, im pretty satisfied with the front it almost tucked..
any idea what stopping the rear from goin all the way down..

im running uas aero sport bags

thanks kenny

Kenny does this math look correct?

compressor 190 x2 = 380
tank 65 = 65
1/4" line 0.60 x60feet = 36
1/4" vavles 30 x8 = 240
billet 9 switch = 160
rear bags 55 x2 = 110
rear cups (4 pc set) = 70
pressure switch = 20
front bags 220 x2 = 440

grand total 1321+Shipping for the basic setup.

is this ALL the parts i need?

if you are talking about the height of the cup, then yes. the height of the cup will determine how low you can go. try and cut the cups down and inch each.
