Wow, the "active suspension" component is pretty cool! I wonder how much the system for us is going to be.

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

I think I would screw up that system soooo bad. Too many choices. I think I'll stick to a simpler solution :)

Cool looking/sounding though!

Sounds like that guy is not too happy with the Tanabe suspension!

we were tooling with this setup on the EvolutionM project car at my friends shop.

After tooling with it and wiring in all the wires, the Ohilns went back on the car, it was crap.

Good on paper, but the electronics just messes up the geometry of the suspension.
