    Air ajustable suspension

    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.

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

    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 )




    I know nothing about front bumper producer, there is a sticker only "B's custom"

    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!!!
