Hey guys, so i have a few 97-01 q45s and like 2 parts cars, and what ive been meaning to do for quite a while is to try to put a bag on stock strut and just run a braided steel line fromt the bag to somewhere in the trunk. Do so to all four corners and have some type of valve at the end of each line, then drop/raise the car from each separate valve from a compressor i have at the shop, the way i would make sure they are all same drop is by checkin the compression in the bag.

what i need now is some more info from all you guys that been working with bags for many years. how would this setup work, how would i fit the bag on the shock? how will the bag sit on the shock?

Any imput would be more then apreciated

If you are parting out those years, I have a few items that I would like to look at. My car has tan seats. I would like to see the passenger door arm rest...if it's in good condition.

are you jsut talking about running these?Cuz my boss and i did this to his y33 and the strut body was to long, so it didnt lay out very far. We ended up converting the front struts to s14 first. Then the thing laid on the freaking grount!! http://www.fbirides.com/product.asp?idno=260146

You could then run 4 lines with Schraeder to a panel in your trunk. but its almost not worth it. cuz if you get a small leak, or or something happends, your S.O.L. hahaits not much more to throw a tank, valves and a pump in tho.
