Try to find any solution for ajustable suspension for VX. My VX was customized a little:)

, and I would like to change a height manually.

I found a dealer of AIRRIDE, and they told me that thay can change VX rear suspension to air, but they have no kit for front suspension because of torsion. Does any body know about Air suspension parts producers and kits for torsion suspension?

reminds me of a nicer looking version of the mooncraft vx! any other pics of it?

as for the suspension.. i cant think of any way you could use airbags with a torsion bar setup.. you would pretty much have to find a way to convert it to a coil spring or coilover setup

I think you could use air shocks and a manifold tied to them and the compressor that works for the bags. I think that would be the easiest route but I am not sure it would give you the results you want in the handling dept.

is that the mooncraft VX with an intercooler behind the front bumper and turbocharged engine?

Yeah, who made the front cladding? In 10 years when Izusu is no longer selling cladding, it might be nice to find a supplier.
Peace.

I am pretty sure it is not the mooncraft VX, but I am curious about the front bumper. The rest looks stock except for the coffee can. :p

unfortunately it is not :), but it will be :) if i will find the supercharger.
unfortunately alpine superchargers is not available now. and I'm trying to find a second hand, but without result. Second option, that's a swap to axiom DI engine, but there is not so much wreck axiom's in Moscow :)

aftermarket parts installed in:
st. steel exaust system
recaro seats
momo wooden st. wheel
armrest with cupholders
17'' rims
chrome grille
carrozeria CD/HDD/MD/Navi (this Navi does not work in Russia :()

Cool lookin' VX!!! I love the front air-dam, but it looks kinda' silly with the taller rear springs installed. Gotta' go with an all around low-n-mean look with that front end air-dam. However, the thing I want most out of that VX is the wooden cup holder center console-- gimme, gimme, gimme!!!
